Federal Executive of the United States

The United States Federal Executive Department is the ensemble of agencies that constitute, together with the United States Federal Executive Council, the executive branch of the federal Authorities of the United States. Commonly called “The Fed”, the Federal Executive Department is responsible for executing the Laws of the United States, as well as causing them to be executed.

Federal Executive Council
The Federal Executive Council (FEC) is the group consisting of the Governor-General and the heads of the executive departments of the United States. The FEC is charged with leading the different sectors of public administration within the government and consists of:


 * Governor-General
 * Attorney-General
 * Secretary of State and Foreign Affairs
 * Secretary of Public Safety
 * Secretary of Emergency and Military Affairs
 * Secretary of the Treasury
 * Secretary of Administration
 * Postmaster-General

Departments
There are currently seven executive departments; all of them equivalent to that of ministries in parliamentary systems. Each executive department is responsible of a specific sector (portfolio) of public administration and provides a related public service to the citizens of the United States. The current departments are:


 * Office of Governor-General
 * Department of the Attorney-General
 * Department of State and Foreign Affairs
 * Department of Public Safety
 * Department of Emergency and Military Affairs
 * Department of the Treasury
 * Department of Administration
 * United States Postal Service

Governor-General
The Governor-General of the United States is the Federal head of government of the United States. The Office of Governor-General is an indirectly-elected Post, by which the Governor-General is formally chosen by an electoral college consisting of a Number of Electors from each State chosen by the Voters thereof, with the Number of Electors from each State being equal to the Number of Senators and Representatives in Congress to which that State is entitled.

As all executive Power of the United States is vested in the Governor-General of the United States, the Governor-General is the head of the Federal Executive Department; and all employees of the executive Department serve at his pleasure.

Article II-C of the Treaty Establishing a Constitution for the United States vests the executive power of the United States in the Governor-General. However, in practice, the Governor-General delegates authority to exercise this Power to his subordinates; that is to say the Heads of Departments, federal executive Agencies, and, most importantly, to the States. Article II-C also establishes that the Governor-General shall be assisted by a Federal Executive Council (FEC) which, in addition to the Governor-General, is composed of the Heads of the principal executive Departments and the FEC-level Officers.

The United States Federal Government does not have a post for lieutenant governor-general. Instead, the Constitution Treaty (TECUS) prescribes that, “[i]n Case of the Removal of the Governor-General from Office, or of his Death, Resignation, or Absence from the United States, or Inability to discharge the Powers and Duties of the said Office, the Same shall devolve on the President of the Senate” (TECUS, article II-C, section 1) &mdash;In other words, as the Governor-General’s lieutenant, whenever the Governor-General is unable to exercise the Powers and Duties of his Office, the President of the Senate is to exercise the Powers and Duties of the Office of Governor-General as Governor-General pro Tempore (literally, “Governor-General for a Time”) “until the Disability be removed, or a Governor-General shall be elected and qualified” (TECUS, article II-C, section 1). The President of the Senate, therefore, performs an equivalent role to that of a Lieutenant Governor in United States politics.

Department of State and Foreign Affairs
XXXX

The Department of State and Foreign Affairs is the Federal-level foreign ministry and intergovernmental affairs ministry of the Government of the United States. In its role as a Federal-level foreign ministry, the Department serves as the common representative of the eighteen States of North Aegea relative to the Common Foreign and International Trade Policy (CFITP). In respect to the Department’s role as a Federal-level intergovernmental affairs ministry, the Department of State and Foreign Affairs essentially operates as a reverse foreign ministry of sorts, whereby relations and communication are directed inwards, focusing on the eighteen member States of the Union &mdash;e.g., Federal-State relations, in a functionally equivalent Manner as the intergovernmental relations between the USKO and its member States. The Department is also responsible for coordinating the efforts of the several States in implementing the CFITP.

The Department of State and Foreign Affairs is headed by a Secretary of State and Foreign Affairs, usually shortened as “Secretary of State”, and sometimes referred to as the “Secretary-General of the United States”, who is the “the principal assistant to the Governor-General in all matters relating to the Department of State and Foreign Affairs.”

Department of the Attorney-General
The Department of the Attorney-General is the “the principal assistant to the Governor-General in all matters relating to Federal Law and the Department of the Attorney-General,” and mainly serves as the legal counsel to the Federal Executive and the various departments, agencies, and offices thereof. In addition, the head of the Department, the Attorney-General of the United States, represents the General Government before the Federal Court of the United States, and occasionally in State-level Courts in causes (cases) involving Federal officers or questions of Federal law. However, in most cases involving a cause arising in a State-level Court that involves the United States, or an Officer thereof, or a Federal-question, the General Government is usually represented in Court by the Advocate-General in and for that State, or his deputy.

Department of Public Safety
XXXX

The Department of Public Safety is headed by a Secretary of Public Safety, sometimes referred to as the “Sheriff-General of the United States”, who is the “the principal assistant to the Governor-General in all matters relating to the Department of Public Safety.”
