The Lawspeaker of the Confederation of Faldarun (Faldarunic: ᛚᚯᚵᛋᚯᚵᚢᛘᛆᚧᚢᚱ ᛆ ᛒᛆᚿᛑᛆᛚᛆᚵ ᚡᛆᛚᛑᛆᛋᚱᚢᚿᛁ, tr. Lögsögumaður á Bandalag Valdasruni) is the 'head of government' of the Confederation of Faldarun, and is largely responsible for managing the nation in terms of administration, in addition to organizing the directly democratic elections which take place in the country for nation-wide issues. Other than purely administrative and 'caretaker' powers, the position is largely powerless, especially compared to the heads of governments of other countries. The current Lawspeaker of Faldarun, as of 2017, is Marijke Heijmans.

The first modern Lawspeaker of Faldarun, Gyða was elected a month after the end of the Faldarunic Civil War. As Lawspeaker, Gyða organised numerous directly democratic elections regarding the direction of the nation.

Elected from the ranks of trade union officials, Eiríkur was widely popular with most industrial workers from the outset of his election. He pushed for the amendment of Article I of the New Social Code, enshrining the right to adequate housing and the right to fulfilling work as fundamental freedoms in Faldarun. He died of lung cancer in early 1930, cutting his term a year short. | |||||||
