Although constitutionally a semi-presidential republic, Lucrecia has given a branch of the House de Weluta an official role as recognised in the constitution. The Lucrecian royal family has existed since 1685 when Archduke Niall of Urcea was invited to become the Republic's permanent designated dictator, a role that remains with his descendants to this day. The head of the Lucrecian branch of the de Welutas is given the title of Grand Duke in Lucrecia, a {{wp|legal fiction}} that was created as a royal title that would not be in violation of the constitution nor in violation of Pelaxia's then-suzerainty over Lucrecia. The current Grand Duke in Lucrecia is [[Amadeo II. Grand Duke in Lucrecia|Grand Duke Amadeo II]], who inherited the grand ducal title from his mother [[Veronica, Grand Duchess in Lucrecia|Grand Duchess Veronica]] after her death on 30 September 2015. Dictatorial designation aside, the Grand Duke wields no political influence nor is he the head of state of Lucrecia, instead serving a purely ceremonial and cultural role under normal circumstances.
