The longest serving Prime Minister was Filomena Marcello who obtained the position in January 1939 and served through the Great War until December 1950.

Ultranationalist | Cristostomo I | Agostino I (1997–2006) | ||
Cristostomo II | |||||||||
Cristostomo's premiership came after nearly 27 years of Unitary Party dominance of the Parliament. His nine-year career in office under the reign of King Agostino I began the process of opening up the nation after a period of long-term isolationism under King Doriano I. It was believed that his implementation of progressive foreign policies would guarantee a third term in office (unprecedented in previous history). However, he was defeated by Henrietta Ianelli during the 2006 General Election following the unexpected death of the King. He went on to serve as Henrietta's Deputy Prime Minister during her time in office between 2006 and 2016. After the 2016 General Election, Vincencio retired from politics. | |||||||||

Unitary | Ianelli Ministry Uni-Lab |
Anelyn I (2006–Present) | |||
Henrietta is the first House Viareggio Prime Minister since Cesare Ferrera and also the first since the House's political shift from Ultranationalism to Unitarianism. Despite being a Unitarian, she supported Queen Anelyn's initiative to work on Cacerta's lackluster foreign relations programs and was a key individual in exploring closer relations with the nearby nations of Gylias and Kirisaki. She has been criticized for her handling of the Nalayan Civil War which many believe partially resulted in the falling out of the Unitary-Labor Coalition that defined her time in office. She is currently serving in the position of Deputy Prime Minister under Valeriana Khushrenada. | |||||||||

Valeriana, a member of House Khushrenada, gained significant influence in the Ultranationalist Party following the December Schism that saw the creation of the more moderate Unionist movement. Working closely with Ultranationalist leader Iralia Marik, Valeriana became a leading figure in the neo-Ultranationalist movement which saw the revitalization of interest in foreign policy as a result of the Nalayan Civil War. She leads the nation's first Grand Coalition government and has made significant efforts in improving relations with Shalum and the fellow nations of the Common Sphere. |
