The Minister-President of Poliania (Volynian: Министр-Прєдсєдатељ од Пољения tr. Ministr-Prědsědatelj od Poljenija) is the head of government, the de facto chief executive of Poliania, and commander-in-chief of the Polianian Armed Forces. The office of Minister-President was established in its current form in the 1935 Constitution, following the nation's defeat in the Great War, and has its origins with the previous 1869 constitution.
The current holder is Ilijana Valćeva, who was elected in 2015 and then re-elected in 2018. She is the first woman to be elected Minister-President in the history of the office.
The office is appointed by the Monarch after being elected by the Chamber of the Land via a vote of confidence. In practice, the leader of the largest party in the Assembly is almost always elected as Minister-President. The holder is the head of the Cabinet and appoints and dismisses the other minsters of state.

The qualifications for position is straight forward. The first criteria is the person must be a member of the Chamber of the Land. This implies that the person is over the age of 26 (the minimum age required to stand for election for the Chamber of the Land) and is a Polianian national.

This excludes active-duty members of the Polianian Armed Forces, although retired or honorably discharged personnel are permitted to serve as minister-president, as they do not meet the criteria or being active-duty.

In the rare event that the vote of confidence fails, the process will start again, with the exception that the previously nominated minister-president cannot be chosen again.

Once the voting process is complete, the Minister-President is formally appointed by the Vladika.
