Chief's Council

The Chief's Council is a group of directors^[1] (leaders of government departments) that are appointed and led by the Chief of the Chiefdom of Osolia to lead government efforts in certain respects, such as in finance or in infrastructure. While Chiefs are not required to have departments or Council members, all Chiefs thus far have established a Council and it is held in high regard by Osolian citizens, even becoming a crucial part of Chief candidates' campaigns, where Chief candidates will announce their Council upon running.

Establishment

The Chief's Council system was mostly carried over from Osolia's predecessor, the Republic of Melonia, which, in a very similar vein to today's Chief's Council, had a Cabinet of Ministers appointed by their President. The idea of the Chief's Council, though, was specifically a part of EESocket's idea of a tribal government system. No public objections to the Council were recorded, and the idea was then included in the initial version of the Constitution. The Constitution of the Chiefdom of Osolia, which is the supreme law of the land and establishes the government of Osolia, practically begins by outlining what the Chief's Council is, what they can and cannot do, and how they are appointed.

↑ The Chief is also technically a part of the Chief's Council, but this is typically not referenced as it is assumed to be the case.
↑ While governors don't have a department, they are typically considered a member of the Chief's Council as, like other Directors, they are appointed by the Chief, confirmed by the Assembly, and tasked with executing on a specific part of Osolia.
