Executive Office of Cassiopeia

The **Executive Office of Cassiopeia** was a governing body and the executive branch of the United Cassiopeian Republic and its predecessor, the Cassiopeian Republic. The office was composed of the immediate staff and cabinet of the Paramount. This included the Vice Paramount, the Paramount's primary aide, and other Paramount-appointed or elected officials that dealt with important administrative matters.

## Organization

### Positions

The Executive Office of Cassiopeia was headed by the Paramount of the United Cassiopeian Republic and its predecessor, the Cassiopeian Republic. The Paramount also had duties to both the Cassiopeian Senate and Galactic Embassy (although these duties were often divided amongst the Paramount's staff), along with leading the Republic as the entire commonwealth of worlds it was.

The Paramount's appointed Vice Paramount held the second-highest position in the Executive Office. The Vice Paramount presided over the Galactic Embassy as its director. Like the Paramount, albeit to a lesser degree, the Vice Paramount had the powers to pass executive orders to government officials.

High-positioned officials, such as secretaries of executive bureaus and departments, were elected by the Cassiopeian Senate, although they were sometimes appointed by the Paramount during the age of the Cassiopeian Republic. Paramounts were able to nominate individuals as candidates for executive secretarial positions. Executive government bureaus included anything from transportation to education and healthcare.

The Paramount's primary aide, as well as any other aides that the Paramount may have had, served as executive assistants.

* The **Bureau of Foreign Affairs**, responsible for foreign policy and relations throughout the known cosmos.

### Headquarters

The base of operations for the Executive Office of Cassiopeia was the **Hall of Administration**, located in District I, which was the wealthiest district in all of Cassiopeia Prime. The Hall of Administration was situated nearby the main buildings of the Cassiopeian Senate and the Galactic Embassy; the Embassy Hall and Senate Hall, respectively. As the building where the Paramount's office was to be found, the Hall of Administration was one of the most secure buildings (if not *the* most secure building) on Cassiopeia Prime.
