List of heads of state of Meridon

Meridon has had an elected head of state resembling a modern executive since 1717, when the Confederal Meridonian Union established two-year terms for the Chairman of the Union Council- prior to this, the Chairman acted primarily as a supervisory body for the Union Council and a primus inter pares, as well as overseeing the confederal agencies. The current role of President was codified in the Articles of Federation of 1749 and has been modified multiple times, with the last modification to their role coming during the 1986 Adjustment to the Articles of Federation.
