List of Leaders of the Libirachi Empire

There have been 34 **leaders** **of the Libirachi Empire** who have claimed control over the nation now known as the Fox Dynasty since the nation's inception in the 13th century CE.

Founded by explorer Eskabar Libirachi and his companion Stanford Rightly I, the Libirachi Empire became an empire in approximately 1340, and Libirachi was posthumously appointed as the first king (later emperor) of the Colony, and the said Colony was renamed in his honour. Rightly was then appointed as the successor to the throne, as King (later emperor) Stanford I. Following the death of King Stanford II, Visly Longwood (who had spent the previous 26 years as Prince Regent in Stanford's old age) appointed himself Emperor of the Libirachi Empire, and granted the title to his predecessors. After three generations of Longwood rule, Stanford Rightly III took the reigns of the Empire, and began another Rightly linage. Following the passing of Emperor Istanbul I, the heir to the throne (Istanbul Rightly II) was not of a ruling age, so it turned to Lord Damian Rothchild I to become the first Lord Administrator until 7th April 1646, when Rightly was inaugurated. After his assassination, a series of short lived Lord Administrators controlled the country until the inauguration of Emperor Jillios I.

Following the passing of Jillios II, the title of Emperor once again passed to the Libirachi family, and so began the Libirachi Dynasty, lasting until 1852 when, during the Libirachi War of Revolution, Emperor George IV was beheaded by the forces of Stanford Rightly. After the execution, the Alliance Grand Council was in charge until Rightly was inaugurated as the first President of the Empire and the Alliance was dissolved later that month. Following his passing, former Vice President and leader of the Party, Theodore Rothchild became the acting President, although he was never inaugurated. Rothchild was assassinated during the Presidential Civil War, and replaced with Azriel Janda, and then Feidel Longwood. In 1871, Ashford Longwood overthrew his brother and became the second President to be inaugurated into office.

The presidency eventually fell to Eshter Morgan in 1930, followed by Xi Kanna in 1950, Jacob Zuma in 1970 and Nathan Jackson in 2010. In 2019, the Libirachi Imperial Army conducted a coup and placed Dame Laura Fox as the President, who then appointed Xi Jimping as her successor following her ascension to the newly re-established throne. With the outbreak of the Has Wars in 2020, the stability of the Libirachi Empire was weakened by the assassination of Empress Laura Fox in 2024, which through the empire into chaos. As the Empire split into two rival fractions, the Confederacy of Independent Nations led by Persian President Almac Docu and the Union of Aligned Nations led by Libirachi regent Penny Fox, the Has Wars concluded, but were quickly followed by the Libirachi Civil War of 2022 - 2024. With the end of civil war in 2024, the Confederacy was dissolved and Penny Fox was inaugurated as the Empress of the Libirachi Empire, whilst the Union remained in existence until 2025, when much of the former ally was absorbed into the Empire. Moving into the next decades, the empire followed a new presidential system as brokered by Empress Fox I and Xi Jimping, with the president holding office like a prime minister would in a presidential republic.

## Head of State

Over the course of Libirachi history, the Head of State title has be relegated to either an Emperor or a President. During the 794 year period between the establishment of the monarchy, the de-establishment of the monarchy, the eventual re-establishment in 2019 and the coronation of Penny Fox in 2024, the post was held by six offices of state:

* King of the Libirachi Empire (**1230 - 1346**)
* Emperor of the Libirachi Empire (**1346 - 1852**; **2019 - *present***)
* Lord Administrator (**1540 - 1567**; **1620 - 1646**; **1692 - 1695**)
* President of the Libirachi Empire (**1852 - 1949**; **1950 - 1970**; **1970 - 2019**)
* First Minister of the Libirachi Empire (**1949 - 1950**)
* Chairman of the Libirachi National Congress (**1970**)

The following table is a list of all recognised heads of state, as well as three disputed leaders during the Shanghai Uprising who controlled enough of the territory of what is now the Libirachi Empire to make this list.

## Head of Government

Over the course of Libirachi history, the position of head of government has fluctuated between being a responsibility of the head of state and being a separate role given to a senior government minister. For five periods (1230 - 1507; 1567 - 1615; 1650 - 1680; 1695 - 1852), the role of head of government was vested with the emperor of the Libirachi Empire. In the remaining periods, the constitutional head of government was held by the following five titles:

* Prime Minister (c. 1230; c. 1540; 1615 - 1620; 1646 - 1650; 1680 - 1692)
* Lord Administrator (1540 - 1567; 1620 - 1646; 1692 - 1695)
* President of the Libirachi Empire (1852; 1870 - 1871; 1950 - 1951; 1970 - *Present*)
* Vice President of the Libirachi Empire (1852 - 1853; 1870; 1871 - 1933)
* Chairman of the Libirachi National Congress (1853 - 1870; 1933 - 1950; 1951 - 1970)

However, the position was held de-facto by the following 7 titles:

* Prime Minister (c. 1230; c. 1540; 1615 - 1620; 1646 - 1650; 1680 - 1692)
* Lord Administrator (1540 - 1567; 1620 - 1646; 1692 - 1695)
* President of the Libirachi Empire (1852; 1870 - 1871; 1933 - 1944; 1950 - 1951; 1970 - *Present*)
* Vice President of the Libirachi Empire (1852 - 1864; 1870)
* Chairman of the Libirachi National Congress (1864 - 1870; 1915 - 1933; 1951 - 1970)
* Chairman of the Imperial Ruling Council (1871 - 1915)
* First Minister of the Libirachi Empire (1944 - 1950)

On several occasions between 1852 and 2019, during the Imperial Republic of Libirachi, the official designated head of government would draw their authority from various titles. Whilst constitutionally the vice president was head of government from 1871 to 1933, the chairman of the Imperial Ruling Council held de-facto power as head of government from 1781 to 1915, and then from 1915 to 1933 the role of chairman of the Libirachi National Congress became de-facto fused with that of vice president. During the presidency of Eshter Morgan, the role of head of government became the chairman of the LNC following the abolition of the vice presidency; however, Morgan occupied office as both president and chairman, thereby making her both head of state and government simultaneously. In 1944, Morgan appointed Jacob Zuma as first minister, a role with no constitutional position but a de-facto position as head of government, which was made formal by Zuma assuming the chairmanship of the LNC in 1945.
