context: The monarchs of England and the United Kingdom had ministers in whom they placed special trust and who were regarded as the head of the government. Examples were Thomas Cromwell under Henry VIII; William Cecil, Lord Burghley under Elizabeth I; Clarendon under Charles II and Godolphin under Queen Anne. These ministers held a variety of formal posts, but were commonly known as "the minister", the "chief minister", the "first minister" and finally the "prime minister".

question: What majority was the prime minister dependent on?

question: What body did the monarch have no control over?

question: What body had life long membership?
context: The power of these ministers depended entirely on the personal favour of the monarch. Although managing the parliament was among the necessary skills of holding high office, they did not depend on a parliamentary majority for their power. Although there was a cabinet, it was appointed entirely by the monarch, and the monarch usually presided over its meetings.

qas: question: Who are the two ministers used by Queen Anne simultaneously?

question: Who was exiled when he lost the favor of the monarch?
answers: text: Clarendon

question: What two ministers fought for power uner Anne?

question: What war strenthened the monarchs position?

question: What Revolution took place in the 17th century?

question: What bill was passed in the 17th century?

question: What bill gave the monarch the power to establish law and impose taxes?
context: In the mid 17th century, after the English Civil War (1642–1651), Parliament strengthened its position relative to the monarch then gained more power through the Glorious Revolution of 1688 and passage of the Bill of Rights in 1689. The monarch could no longer establish any law or impose any tax without its permission and thus the House of Commons became a part of the government. It is at this point that a modern style of prime minister begins to emerge.

qas: question: The reign of which king was a turning point in the growth of the position of prime minister?

question: Where was George I's home?
answers: text: Hanover

question: When did George I die?

question: What language did George speak?

question: Who did George appoint head of the government?
context: A tipping point in the evolution of the prime ministership came with the death of Anne in 1714 and the accession of George I to the throne. George spoke no English, spent much of his time at his home in Hanover, and had neither knowledge of, nor interest in, the details of English government. In these circumstances it was inevitable that the king's first minister would become the de facto head of the government.

qas: question: For how long did Robert Walpole serve as prime minister?
answers: text: twenty-one years

question: What party did Walpole belong to?
answers: text: Whig

question: Who waited 21 years to become Prime minister?

question: Who's opponents packed the House of Commons?

question: Who did the monarch declare could see him in private?
context: From 1721 this was the Whig politician Robert Walpole, who held office for twenty-one years. Walpole chaired cabinet meetings, appointed all the other ministers, dispensed the royal patronage and packed the House of Commons with his supporters. Under Walpole, the doctrine of cabinet solidarity developed. Walpole required that no minister other than himself have private dealings with the king, and also that when the cabinet had agreed on a policy, all ministers must defend it in public, or resign. As a later prime minister, Lord Melbourne, said, "It matters not what we say, gentlemen, so long as we all say the same thing."

question: Who tried to prove the exitence of the Prime Minister?

question: What monarch gave more power to the prime minister?

question: Who was loyal to the Commons?

question: What prime minster was mentally ill?
context: Walpole always denied that he was "prime minister", and throughout the 18th century parliamentarians and legal scholars continued to deny that any such position was known to the Constitution. George II and George III made strenuous efforts to reclaim the personal power of the monarch, but the increasing complexity and expense of government meant that a minister who could command the loyalty of the Commons was increasingly necessary. The long tenure of the wartime prime minister William Pitt the Younger (1783–1801), combined with the mental illness of George III, consolidated the power of the post. The title was first referred to on government documents during the administration of Benjamin Disraeli but did not appear in the formal British Order of precedence until 1905.

question: Where in the Amaricas has the British system been adopted?
context: By the late 20th century, the majority of the world's countries had a prime minister or equivalent minister, holding office under either a constitutional monarchy or a ceremonial president. The main exceptions to this system have been the United States and the presidential republics in Latin America modelled on the U.S. system, in which the president directly exercises executive authority.

qas: question: What is the term for the head of China's government?
answers: text: Premier of the State Council

question: What is another name for the Republic of China?
answers: text: Taiwan

question: Whose consent is not required for the Taiwanese premier to take office?
answers: text: legislature

question: Who is both head of state and the head of government in France?

question: Who is appointed by the president and approved by the legislature in Taiwan?
context: This contrasts with the presidential system, in which the president (or equivalent) is both the head of state and the head of the government. In some presidential or semi-presidential systems, such as those of France, Russia or South Korea, the prime minister is an official generally appointed by the president but usually approved by the legislature and responsible for carrying out the directives of the president and managing the civil service. The head of government of the People's Republic of China is referred to as the Premier of the State Council and the premier of the Republic of China (Taiwan) is also appointed by the president, but requires no approval by the legislature.

question: What can the French parliament cause in order to oust the prime minister?
answers: text: resignation of the government

question: What french official must be approved by the parliment?

question: what can the prime minister force in order to oust the government in France?

question: What is it called when the president and and legislature are controlled by the same party
context: Appointment of the prime minister of France requires no approval by the parliament either, but the parliament may force the resignation of the government. In these systems, it is possible for the president and the prime minister to be from different political parties if the legislature is controlled by a party different from that of the president. When it arises, such a state of affairs is usually referred to as (political) cohabitation.

question: What act was passed in the 18th century?
context: Canada's constitution, being a 'mixed' or hybrid constitution (a constitution that is partly formally codified and partly uncodified) originally did not make any reference whatsoever to a prime minister, with her or his specific duties and method of appointment instead dictated by "convention". In the Constitution Act, 1982, passing reference to a "Prime Minister of Canada" is added, though only regarding the composition of conferences of federal and provincial first ministers.

answers: text: Balfour

question: When did Balfour last hold the titles of prime minister and Chancellor of the Exchequer?
answers: text: 1905

question: Who's constitution is well codefied?

question: What office did not exist in any form in the UK until the early twentieth century?

question: Who was the forst prime minister to also be Chancellor of the Exchequer?

question: When did Balfour leave the offeice of Chancellor of the Exchequer to become Prime Minisater?
context: The United Kingdom's constitution, being uncodified and largely unwritten, makes no mention of a prime minister. Though it had de facto existed for centuries, its first mention in official state documents did not occur until the first decade of the twentieth century. Accordingly, it is often said "not to exist", indeed there are several instances of parliament declaring this to be the case. The prime minister sits in the cabinet solely by virtue of occupying another office, either First Lord of the Treasury (office in commission), or more rarely Chancellor of the Exchequer (the last of whom was Balfour in 1905).

qas: question: Which prime minister was appointed only one time?

answers: text: cabinet

question: What leader of the cabinet has a limeted term?

question: What Prime Minister was appointed multiple times?

For example, Margaret Thatcher was only ever appointed prime minister on one occasion, in 1979. She remained continuously in power until 1990, though she used the assembly of each House of Commons after a general election to reshuffle her cabinet.

qas: question: What is the name of the prime ministerial position in Ireland?
answers: text: Taoiseach

question: From where is the Irish prime minister usually selected?
answers: text: the political party that commands majority of seats in the lower house of parliament

question: When is the Irish Taoiseach renominated?
answers: text: after every general election

question: Who is chosen from the party that hold a minority of seats in the lower hhouse of parliment?

question: Who is the Taoiseach in the UK?

question: When is the Taoiseach reelected?
context: Some states, however, do have a term of office of the prime minister linked to the period in office of the parliament. Hence the Irish Taoiseach is formally 'renominated' after every general election. (Some constitutional experts have questioned whether this process is actually in keeping with the provisions of the Irish constitution, which appear to suggest that a taoiseach should remain in office, without the requirement of a renomination, unless s/he has clearly lost the general election.) The position of prime minister is normally chosen from the political party that commands majority of seats in the lower house of parliament.

question: What does the lower house seldom use?

question: What kind of referendum can the lower house take against the upper house of parliment?

Where they lose a vote of confidence, have a motion of no confidence passed against them, or where they lose supply, most constitutional systems require either:

answers: text: prime minister

question: who has the power to disolve parliment?

question: Who can the prime minister damand a resignation from?

question: what kind of dissalution can parliment request?
context: The latter in effect allows the government to appeal the opposition of parliament to the electorate.

In most modern parliamentary systems, the prime minister is the person who decides when to request a parliamentary dissolution.

In the United Kingdom, for example, the tradition whereby it is the prime minister who requests a dissolution of parliament dates back to 1918. Prior to then, it was the entire government that made the request. Similarly, though the modern 1937 Irish constitution grants to the Taoiseach the right to make the request, the earlier 1922 Irish Free State Constitution vested the power in the Executive Council (the then name for the Irish cabinet).

The few exceptions to the rule are Germany and Austria, whose heads of government titles are almost always translated as Chancellor; Monaco, whose head of government is referred to as the Minister of State; and Vatican City, for which the head of government is titled the Secretary of State. In the case of Ireland, the head of government is occasionally referred to as the Taoiseach by English speakers.
