United States Federal Council

 The Federal Council of the United States (: Consejo Federal de los Estados Unidos de Norte-Egeo; : Bundesrat der Vereinigten Staaten; : Pūkuʻi Pekelala o nā Mokuʻāina Huipū), officially the Federal Council of the United States of North Aegea (: Consejo Federal de los Estados Unidos de Norte-Égeo; : Bundesrat der Vereinigten Staaten von Nordägea; : Pūkuʻi Pekelala o nā Mokuʻāina Huipū), colloquially known as “[the] Bundesrat”, and sometimes as the Board of Governors of the United States, is the 25-member Council which constitutes the supreme federal authority of the United States and serves as the United States’ collective head of state, of which the chief Executives of the United States –that is, the Governor-General of the United States and the Governor of each State is a member (the King in the case of Hawaiʻi), and the Bundesrat is chaired by the Governor-General as their President, but he has no Vote unless they be equally divided. However, in his role as President of the Federal Council, the Governor-General is a primus inter pares (first among equals) among the Members of the Federal Council.

The Federal Council has a number of executive, legislative, and judicial Powers, all of which are enumerated in Detail in Article II-E of the United States Constitution Treaty and the various Enabling Acts passed pursuant thereto by the Congress.

The official operating Languages of the Federal Council are English,, , and. Pursuant to this, the official titles (de jure) of the President of the Federal Council are only the English, German, Castilian, and Hawaiʻian, “President of the Federal Council”, “Bundesratspräsident[en]”, “Presidente del Consejo Federal”, and, “Pelikikena o ka Pūkuʻi Pekelala o nā Mokuʻāina Huipū”, respectively.

Scope
The Federal Council is the supreme federal Institution in and of the United States. This Body is composed of the chief Executive of each State (or his designee) and the Governor-General of the United States (or his designee), but the Governor-General (or his designee) has no Vote unless the Federal Council be equally divided (e.g., the Governor-General or his designee cannot Vote except to break a tie). The Federal Council is part-Legislature, part-Executive, and part-Judiciary; and has various oversight Powers over the Congress, Governor-General, and Federal Court. In its oversight of the Congress, it can [...]. As to its oversight of the Governor-General and Federal Executive, it can dismiss the Governor-General and his Administration if the chief Executives from two-thirds of the States pass a motion of no confidence in him or his Administration. In exercising oversight over the Federal Court, the Federal Council can amend or even void decisions rendered by the Federal Court if, in their view, the Federal Court made a decision in error. As to oversight of all three Departments, the Federal Council sits as a Council of Censors, in which it can audit, investigate, reprimand, and censure Members of the legislative, executive, and judicial Departments of the United States Government. It is also tasked with inspecting the Statutes, Regulations, and court Decisions; and making recommendations to the Congress, Executive, and Federal Court, respectively, as to flaws or need for improvement, revision, or repeal in the Laws of the Union.

President
The Governor-General of the United States is the de jure presiding officer of the Federal Council, and in that capacity, the person serving as Governor-General is also, by virtue of that office, the President of the Federal Council (: Bundesratspräsident[en]; : Presidente de Consejo Federal; and : Pelikikena o ka Pūkuʻi Pekelala o nā Mokuʻāina Huipū). As the President of the Federal Council, the Governor-General has no voting Rights except when the Bundesrat is equally divided (e.g., in order to break a hung Federal Council ); and the Bundesratspräsident has no more Power than the regular (State chief Executive) Members of the Federal Council: In this regard, he is considered as being primus inter pares relative to his twenty-four State counterparts.

Members
The Bundesrat consists of twenty-five Members, namely the twenty-four State chief Executives (styled “Governor” in every State but Hawaiʻi, which, as a constitutional monarchy, is led by a King) and the Governor-General of the United States.

Councils
The Federal Council may meet in various configurations, depending on the agenda of the day. Multiple configurations of the Federal Council may meet simultaneously, albeit separately. Currently, there are twenty-one configurations, each dealing with a particular policy area as relates to the Powers of the Union and the States. In their primary, plenary configuration (e.g, the ‘executive configuration’), the Members of the Federal Council are the nineteen Federal and State chief Executives; but when meeting in any other configuration, the Members of that particular Council configuration are the Heads of State and Federal Agencies that correspond with the portfolio associated with such configuration. Furthermore, there are two configurations that do not correspond to an executive department agency or portfolio, namely the Judicial Committee (configuration of State/Federal supreme Courts) and the Legislative Committee (All-Union Congress of State Legislatures). As of 1722, the current configurations of the Federal Council are:
 * Executive Council — Composed of the nineteen Federal and State chief Executives; chaired by the Governor-General of the United States (corresponds to the State and Federal Governors);
 * Foreign Affairs Council — Composed of the Heads of State and Federal state and foreign affairs Departments; chaired by the United States Secretary for the Federal Department of State and Foreign Affairs (corresponds to the State and Federal departments of State and Foreign Affairs);
 * Law Council — Composed of State and Federal Attorneys-General; chaired by the Federal Attorney-General (composed of the State and Federal Attorney-General departments);

 * Civil Defense Council — Composed of the Heads of State and Federal emergency management Agencies; chaired by the United States Secretary for the Federal Department of Public Safety (corresponds to the State and Federal departments of Public Safety, or equivalent);
 * Public Safety Council — Composed of the Heads of State and Federal public safety Departments; chaired by the United States Secretary for the Federal Department of Public Safety (Corresponds to State and Federal departments of Public Safety; as well as State and Federal bureaus of Intelligence, or equivalent);

 * Legislative Council — Composed of the Members of the State Legislatures, arranged by State; co-chaired by the President of the United States Senate (first chair) and the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives (second/deputy chair), and corresponds to State Legislatures;—This configuration may meet electronically (via teleconference) or at various convention centers throughout the United States: But it may also meet in the Fœderal Capital Territory at the purpose-built XXXX Building.

The following configurations are without direct Federal equivalent, and as such are usually composed of State (but sometimes Federal as well) members at Ministerial level, but with an ex officio Federal presiding Officer:
 * Transport Council — Composed of Heads of State transportation Departments, and the United States Secretaries for the Federal Department of the Treasury and the Federal Department of Military and Naval Affairs; chaired by the Director-General of the United States Intergovernmental Conference Secretariat (corresponds to State departments of Transportation; has no Federal equivalent);
 * Health Council — Composed of Heads of State health Departments and State health Services; chaired by the Director-General of the United States Intergovernmental Conference Secretariat (corresponds to State health Agencies; has no Federal equivalent);
 * Education Council — Composed of Heads of State education Departments; chaired by the Director-General of the United States Intergovernmental Conference Secretariat (corresponds to State education Departments; has no Federal equivalent);
 * Land and Natural Resources Council — Composed of Heads of State land, natural resources, forestry and wildlife Agencies; chaired by the Director-General of the United States Intergovernmental Conference Secretariat (equivalent to various State departments concerned with Public Lands, Conservation, Natural Resources, Mining, Forestry, and Wildlife; has no Federal equivalent);
 * Agriculture Council — Composed of Heads of State agriculture Departments; chaired by the Director-General of the United States Intergovernmental Conference Secretariat (corresponds to State departments of Agriculture; has no Federal equivalent);
 * Energy Council — Composed of Heads of State energy Departments; chaired by the Director-General of the United States Intergovernmental Conference Secretariat (corresponds to State energy Departments; has no Federal equivalent);
 * Water Resources Council — Composed of Heads of State water Departments; chaired by the Director-General of the United States Intergovernmental Conference Secretariat (corresponds to State water Departments; has no Federal equivalent);

 * Banking Council — Composed of the Heads of State financial institution Departments and the United States Department of the Treasury; chaired by the United States Secretary for the Federal Department of the Treasury (corresponds to State banking Departments; has no direct Federal equivalent);
 * Federal Bank Council — Composed of the Heads of State central Banks and the Chancellor of the United States Federal Bank; chaired by the Chancellor of the United States Federal Bank (corresponds to State central Banks and the Federal Bank; has no direct State or Federal equivalent, as State and Federal central Banks are independent of the political Branches of State/Federal Government);

The following are special configurations. As such, their membership is State and Federal, but the presiding Officer of each configuration is the Guardian of the Order of the Phoenix (an agency of the Allied Control Council, which is in turn an agency of the Magical Congress of the United States). These configurations are primarily oriented towards combatting corruption at all levels of Government, and suppressing National-Collective movements; and as such their presiding Officer is affiliated with neither the State or Federal governments. Unlike in other Council configurations, the presiding Officer in these configurations do have actual executive and administrative Powers over their Council configuration:
 * Investigative Committee of the Federal Council — Composed of State and Federal investigative Committees (agencies tasked with suppressing and thwarting National Progressivism); chaired and directed by the Guardian of the Order of the Phoenix;

Agencies
Agencies of the Federal Council are Intergovernmental in nature, and are among the most decentralized of Institutions in the United States. As their Nature is Intergovernmental, these Agencies exist at both Bundesrat (“Federal”) and State levels. At the Bundesrat-level, these Agencies are tasked with formulating policy and guidelines, which are then executed by their counterparts at the State-level, with wide latitude being granted to them at State-level as to how to implement those policies and guidelines. For each Agency of the Federal Council there exists a counterpart at the State-level that serves both as the local representative of the Federal Council vis-á-vis that particular Agency, but also as the executing-apparatus of such Agency. While there are State-level portions of Federal Council Agencies, they do not perform purely-State functions as under article III of the Federal Constitution Treaty, nor do they perform purely-Federal functions, but a mixture of the two: a function styled, “Intergovernmental and Fœderative”. The exception to this rule is the Executive Office of United States Inspectors-General (EOUSIG) and the Agency-specific offices of Inspector-General (OIG), which are located fully at Bundesrat-level: Each OIG is responsible for a specific Department-level Agency in the Federal Executive Department; and in and for each Agency the OIG thereof and therefor is tasked with investigating fraud, giving policy advice, handling certain complaints by employees, and reporting every six Months to Congress and the Head of that Agency on that Agency’s activities.

Federal Council Agencies are distinguished from Agencies of the United States Government by the use of the term, “Fœderal”, instead of “Federal”, in the name of such Agency. Agencies and offices
