Epistalma

The Hegemonian Cabinet (Hegemonian: Epistalma) is the executive body of Imperium and one of its eight Hegemonian institutions. It is responsible for implementing Hegemonian law provided by Senate and High Council, through formulating public policy enforceable by first-level entities.

The Epistalma consists of 17 cabinet ministers and 8 cabinet counselors, which are appointed by committees of the Senate and High Council, respectively; and is headed by two Consules Plebeii, the heads of government of Imperium. The cabinet ministers and counselors must be members of the legislative bodies appointing them, and are accountable to the standing legislative committees covering their portfolios. The Consules Plebeii must be senators and are elected for a 1-year term by their peers in the Senate on 12 November and, therefore, the membership of the Epistalma is renewed by the respective standing legislative committees on the same day.
