The Prime Minister of Mascylla (Hesurian: Premierminister Maskilliens), also known as simply the Prime Minister or PM, is the elected head of government of the Crowned Republic of Mascylla. The office is the highest ministry and is able to dictate policies along with his cabinet and Reichsrat, and according to the views and policies of the ruling party and their coalition members. The office is currently occupied by Thomas Falkner of the Rehunion since 16 September 2016, leading a coalition government of the Centre and SDP.
The Prime Minister is elected through popular vote by all eligible citizens of Mascylla upon a nomination by a political party or announcement for running. While the Prime Minister can nominate ministers, the Reichsrat as well as formally the monarch either rejects or ratifies the proposed members of government. Furthermore, the monarch ceremonially appoints and grants the titular titles and orders to the winner of a prime ministerial election as Prime Minister, but is required to gain the confidence of a majority in the legislature. More often, the Prime Minister also appoints a Deputy Prime Minister, though such office is not official nor represented in the constitution. Before the end of an office term the Prime Minister can only be removed through a vote of no confidence by the Reichsrat, which requires the body to nominate a successor by a majority. In case the Prime Minister dies or resigns, the Deputy Prime Minister succeeds him or her in taking over governmental affairs while a new government is assembled.
The office of Prime Minister is regarded as the politically most influential statesman in Mascylla. For that reason Mascylla is sometimes referred to as a "Ministerdemokratie" ('ministry democracy'). However, the constitution places the Monarch (as head of state) and the President of the Reichssenat ahead of the Prime Minister according to its protocol order.
