The Federal Council of the United States (Castilian: Consejo Federal de los Estados Unidos de Norte-Egeo; German: Bundesrat der Vereinigten Staaten), officially the Federal Council of the United States of North Aegea (Castilian: Consejo Federal de los Estados Unidos de Norte-Égeo; German: Bundesrat der Vereinigten Staaten von Nordägea), colloquially known as “[the] Bundesrat”, and sometimes as the Board of Governors of the United States, is the 31-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 30 State Governors are members, 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, German, and Castilian. Pursuant to this, the official titles (de jure) of the President of the Federal Council are only the English, German, and Castilian “President of the Federal Council”, “Bundesratspräsident[en]”, and “Presidente del Consejo Federal”, respectively.

Scope[edit | edit source]
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 Supreme 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 Supreme Court, the Federal Council can amend or even void decisions rendered by the Supreme Court if, in their view, the 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 Supreme Court, respectively, as to flaws or need for improvement, revision, or repeal in the Laws of the Union.

President[edit | edit source]
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 (German: Bundesratspräsident[en]; and Castilian: Presidente de Consejo Federal). 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[1]); 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[2] relative to his thirty State counterparts.
Members[edit | edit source]
The Bundesrat consists of thirty-one Members, namely the thirty State Governors and the Federal Governor-General.
Council configurations[edit | edit source]
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 thirty-one 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 1734, the current configurations of the Federal Council are:

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 Vampire Congress of the United States). These configurations are primarily oriented towards combatting corruption at all levels of Government, and suppressing National-Progressive 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[edit | edit source]
— 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[edit | edit source]
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 United States Constitution, 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 Cabinet-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.
