Governor-General of the United States

The Governor-General of the United States (: Gobernador-General de los Estados Unidos; : Kiaaina-Nui o kaʻAmelika Hui Pūʻia; : Generalgouverneuren von Vereinigten Staaten), officially the Governor-General of the United States of North Aegea (: Gobernador-General de los Estados Unidos de Norteégea; : Kiaaina-Nui o kaʻAmelika Hui Pūʻia; : Generalgouverneuren von Vereinigten Staaten von Nord-Ägäis), and occasionally "GOVGEN" (: GOBGEN; : KNoAHP; : GGvVS), is the Federal head of Government of the United States and President of the United States Federal Council (the collective Federal head of state of the United States). The Governor-General leads the Executive part (branch) of the U.S. federal Government, presides ex officio over the U.S. Federal Council, and is the Commander-in-Chief of the United States Armed Forces. The person in this position is the leader of a Community with the Nth largest economy and Nth largest military, with command Authority over the largest active nuclear Arsenal in the World. The offices of Governor-General of the United States, President of the United Aegean Republic, and President of the Russian Democratic Federative Republic, are frequently described as being the three most-powerful Posts in the World.

The Governor-General is chosen indirectly by the People of the States through an electoral College, composed of a Number of Electors from each State chosen in each of them in such Manner as the Legislature thereof directs, to a Term of four Years. The Governor-General is the only Union-wide elected federal Officer.

The office of Governor-General was established on January 1, 1720, with the entry into force of the Treaty Establishing a Constitution for the United States, but the office did not become active until March 4 of the following Year. The post of Governor-General succeeded and replaced the office of President pro Tempore of the United States that existed under the Provisional Government of the United States, from July 4, 1718–March 4, 1721; Sharon Raydor of California was the only person to have served as President pro Tempore.

Origin
XXXX

Due to the imperial and increasingly-authoritarian nature of the Office of President of the United States beginning noticeably during the Wilson Presidency up to the office’s disestablishment in 1714 with the removal of the Underwood Regime, the successor office –namely the Office of Governor-General– was designed to be much weaker and much more restrained in its Powers and Duties, with a more robust system of checks and balances to keep it within its actual grant of Power. To this end, the Powers and Duties of the United States’ new federal Executive were split between the Office of Governor-General and the new Federal Council. For example, while the Governor-General is the Commander-in-Chief of the United States Armed Forces, the development of the Union’s foreign, defense, and security Policies are vested solely in the Federal Council, of which the Governor-General is the President: But, while he presides over the Federal Council, he has no role in determining their Agenda, and nominally has no Vote unless they be equally divided (e.g., in order to break a tie). Furthermore, while the Federal Council develops these Policies, the actual execution of said Policies are split between the Governor-General and the Governors of the States, in which the Governor-General executes such Parts of the Policies embracing those Matters coming within the Classes of Subjects on which the Union is competent to legislate, and the Governors of the States execute those Parts of the Policies touching upon those Matters that either come within the reserved Powers of the States or are excepted out of the legislative Competence of the Union and not prohibited to the States. In this sense, the nature of the federal executive Power is diffused and decentralized, both in its formation and in its execution. In addition, the Governor-General is not considered the Federal head of State but the Federal head of Government; instead, the entire United States Federal Council (composed of the federal Governor-General and the eighteen State Governors) is considered the United States’ collective Federal head of State.

Powers and duties
The United States Governor-General is classified as a “weak executive” due to the numerous limits and constraints entrenched in the Treaty Establishing a Constitution for the United States (also known as the “Constitution Treaty”) against runaway executive Power. The Governor-General does not have Power to unilaterally form or adopt the foreign or domestic Policies of the Union: those Powers rest with the United States Federal Council. However, the Governor-General is responsible for carrying out those parts of the Union’s foreign and domestic Policies that come within the legislative Competence of the Union; while the State Governors are responsible for carrying out those parts of the Union's foreign and domestic Policies that either come within the Powers and Competence reserved to the States or otherwise do not come within the legislative Competence of the Union: But the domestic Policy of the Union is extremely limited in scope as the Constitution Treaty does not grant the Union much of a domestic role. Much of the Union’s domestic Powers are limited to ensuring that no State enacts or adopts discriminatory Policies towards other States.
