The | The '''Procurator of the Royal Treasury of the Apostolic King''' usually referred to just as the '''Procurator''' is, alongside the [[Chancellor and Temporary President]], the {{wp|head of government}} of the Apostolic Kingdom of [[Urcea]] and its [[Government of Urcea|government]]. The Procurator serves as chief executive of the Urcean state, and at times serves as de facto head of state. The Procurator directs the policies of the [[Concilium Purpaidá]] and nominally serves as presiding officer of the [[Concilium Daoni]], and is elected by the nation as a whole. In addition to the office's political and administrative responsibilities, the Procurator serves as {{wp|Magister Militum}} of His Most Christian Majesty's Armed Forces, making him the de facto supreme commander of the [[Armed Forces of the Apostolic Kingdom of Urcea]]. | ||
The office of Procurator, which is a {{wp|Ecclesiastical Latin|Latin}} term originating in [[Great Levantia]] roughly translating to "steward", originated as a functionary in most Medieval Levantine states entrusted with the management of the Royal Treasury on behalf of the King or Monarch. In Urcea, however, the Procurator was entrusted with the organization and administration of the Concilium Daoni in 1146, initially an adjunct body of the [[Great Landsmeet]]. By the time of the [[Great Confessional War]], the Procurator was the most important of the King's counselors, often served as regent in the minority of a monarch, and was always treated with the dignity of acting ''in persona Rex'', in the person of the King. During the development of the [[Constitution of Urcea]], the Procurator grew in this capacity to become a national leader second only to the King, and with the growing power and development of the Concilium Purpaidá the Procurator became the most powerful government official in the Kingdom. Following the [[Red Interregnum]], the office became elective via an electoral college, which was replaced in 1938 during the [[Second Great War]] with a full national popular vote election for the Procurator, which was the most recent key development in the Constitution of Urcea. The office of Procurator in its current form is considered to have come into being in 1785. | |||
One must be over the age of thirty, possess [[Urcea|Urcean]] citizenship, and be a baptized [[Catholic]] in order to qualify to serve as Procurator. The Procurator is elected every five years and has no term limits, and oftentimes the major parties' candidate for Procurator is their party leader. Consequently, it is legally possible for an individual to serve as both Procurator and Chancellor and Temporary President, giving them a wide array of authority over the Urcean state similar to that of a {{wp|president}}. A Procurator can be removed from office for any reason, but can only be removed by a three quarters vote of the Concilium Daoni, a vote which must be confirmed by the King. | One must be over the age of thirty, possess [[Urcea|Urcean]] citizenship, and be a baptized [[Catholic]] in order to qualify to serve as Procurator.
