| The '''College of Praetors''' is a body consisting of the [[Monarchy of Latium|Emperor]] and the magistrates charged with leading the central government's executive bureaus. The College is an advisory body of senior government officials, and is a leading committee of the [[Imperial Court (Latium)|Imperial Court]], second only to that of the [[Sacred Assembly]]. Officially, the college is chaired by the emperor, though he is not a member of the college himself. In the emperor's absence, the [[Master of Offices]] traditionally chairs the college, though the emperor may appoint a designee.

| Members of the college are appointed by the emperor and serve as his pleasure, which means members can be dismissed at any time. Traditionally, a number of college positions, typically those of praetor-status, are appointed from within the [[Senate of Latium|Senate]], most often from the leading [[Factions of the Latin Senate|faction]]. Executive bureaus may be created, added, or removed from college status at any time. Meetings typically take place in the Pictura Room, at the [[Monarchy of Latium#Residences|Palace of Augustus]], in [[Castellum]], though there is no designated meeting place as the college has the ability to meet where ever the emperor is present.

| The College of Praetors was first constituted during the reign of [[Maria III of Latium|Empress Maria III Tullia]] as an advisory gathering of minor magistrates not authorized to meet with the [[Sacred Assembly]]. Upon the ascension of [[Theophylactus I Augustus|Emperor Theophylactus I Anicius]], in 1846, the College was organized into its modern form, similarly to the committee of executive magistrates created by Theophylactus when he served as [[Count of the East]] as heir apparent.

| The College is authorized by the 1846 Edict of Leonopolis (#01846-04), and saw the inclusion of Master of Offices, Count of Petitions, Master of Soldiers, Count of the Sacred Largesses, Aedile, and the creation of the Foreign Praetor, Trade, and Agriculture. The consul was added to the college in 1848. The authorizing edict has remained largely unchanged since it was issued.

| ==Eligibility and selection== | | | [[file:Boni Emblem.svg|100px]] |
| All members of the College are appointed by the Latin Emperor, often upon the advice of the [[Master of Offices]] or the [[Consul of Latium|Consul]]. College members of praetor-rank are traditionally appointed among the current [[Senate of Latium|Senate]], i.e. Praetor for Foreign Affairs, Aedile, etc. Most commonly, these senators are chosen among the faction or factions that hold a majority in the Senate. While a non-senator can hold a praetor-level position, typically the Emperor will appoint an individual to the Senate to then appoint to the college rather than appoint a non-senator. This most recently occurred with the appointment of [[Flavius Aemilius|Duke Flavius Aemilius]] to serve as Foreign Praetor.

| Contrary to widely held belief, one does not need to be a [[Latium|Latin citizen]] to serve on the College of Praetors; however, this is a rare occurrence. The most recent appointment of a non-Latin citizen to the college was when [[Marsella Atmos|Empress Marsella]] was appointed [[Master of Offices]] by [[Jason VI, Latin Emperor|Emperor Jason VI Claudius]] in 2010.
