History
The office and position of chancellor of Brumen was established in the aftermath of the Second Insurrection, a period of civil war that resulted in the democratization of Brumen. One of the many grievances which triggered the insurrection was the centralization of executive power in the Monarch. While some powers of the Monarch was ceded to the Oberhaus after the First Insurrection, Monarchs of Brumen continue to enjoy near total control over all executive functions of the government. As part of the peace treaty in the aftermath of the Second Insurrection, most executive powers were transferred to the office & position of chancellor.
