Following The events of Operation Albion and the adoption of The Imperial Constitution the Office of the Prime Minister was reformed to be the Chancellor. During the days of **The Adorian Empire** the Chancellor served as Head of Government and was basically a renaming of the Prime Minister.

## History

Following a Monarchist Victory in Operation Albion,

At the Ohianta Conference it was voted to rename the Prime Minister to the name of Chancellor. There was also a proposal to include an Emergency Powers Clause in the Imperial Constitution that would allow the Chancellor to declare National Emergencies and would gain the title of Supreme Chancellor. During these national emergencies the Supreme Chancellor would rule by decree for 48 hours. However the Emergency Powers Clause failed and was not included.

On March 25th 2020, The Imperial Constitution was officially adopted and Prime Minister Ruben became the First Chancellor of Adoria. Following the 20th General Election Matthew V became the next Chancellor. During his Chancellorship a Non-binding referendum on the Monarchy was held which resulted in a majority in favor of abolishing the monarchy. Matthew would then begin a long task of writing a Republican Constitution. However following the 21st General Election Matthew was ousted and replaced with a Fascist Government. As Chancellor Germania announced a new constitution that was signed and approved by Emperor Karl. This proposed constitution required VONCs to be approved by the Emperor, it would also make National Guards controlled by Governors again, The Monarchy and Emperor would be maintained, and Gay Marriage and Child Marriage would be banned. These measures were met with heavy backlash and the proposal was withdrawn. Due to Party Espionage Charges Germania was ousted and replaced with HeyIt'sJoe™. Following the 22nd General Election The Formation of a coalition took a while and Emperor Ethan appointed bruh as Chancellor until a coalition was formed. As The Catholic Syndicalist Front was such a minor party many were angered by this move as he held little mandate but the Emperor's to be Chancellor. Later in the day an SDP Coalition was formed and Matthew V yet again became Chancellor. On May 7th, The Constition of the 4th Republic was passed and The Chancellorship was dissolved. Matthew then became the 4th Republic's 1st Prime Minister.

## Article XVII: (Powers of the Chancellor)

Text from The Imperial Constitution

The Chancellor or as known by their official title: The Right Honorable Chancellor Representing the Popular Assembly of Adoria is the Head of Government and is tasked with the day to day running of the country and shares Executive power with the Emperor. 1) The Chancellor will receive the powers given to the Prime Minister in the previous constitution 2) During his time in office a Chancellor is immune from legal prosecution but can be removed from the office they hold through a vote of no confidence in the Popular Assembly or a 2/3rds majority in the Noble Assembly which must be approved by the Emperor.

## Proposed Emergency Powers Clause

This Proposal was never passed

Whenever a crisis riddles the empire, The Chancellor will be able to declare a national emergency and assume the title of Supreme Chancellor. During this time The Supreme Chancellor will be able to pass all executive orders that he deems necessary so long as appropriate. Once The Supreme Chancellor deems the emergency over or 48 hours pass the national emergency will come to an end and all executive orders will be cancelled. If The Supreme Chancellor wishes to extend the national emergency to last for more than 48 hours an appeal will be made to the popular assembly. The appeal will state the desired amount of time in the extension and will not be required to pass through a committee. The national emergency can be challenged to The Supreme Court at any time.
