Chancellor of the Republic

The Chancellor of the Republic is the head of government and de facto head of state of the Terran Federal Republic. He is elected by the Assembly of the People and confirmed by both the Senate and the Committee. Any of these three institutions can force the Chancellor resign during his tenure. 
The Chancellor's primary responsibility is to propose a cabinet to the Committee and head its daily activities. Despite Terran law not naming any position explicitly as the head of state, due to the Committee's anonymous nature, the Chancellor fulfills this role as well. Notwithstanding, many powers usually associated with heads of state, such as control of the military, are instead in the hands of the Committee. The Chancellor also nominally serves as the Administrator of Earth. However, he is traditionally expected to nominate a Coadjutor of Earth which serves this role on his behalf.
