The '''[[Consul-General of the Achaean Territory]]''' was the title used by [[Grand Duke Travis]] during his time as Head of State of the [[Achaean Territory of Antarctica|Achaean Territory]], the predecessor state to [[Westarctica]].
'''[[Dorrel Rock]]''' is a rock outcrop 11 nautical miles (20 km) southwest of the summit of [[Mount Murphy]], protruding through the ice near the head of [[Pope Glacier]], on the [[Walgreen Coast]] in [[Westarctica]]. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and [[U.S. Navy]] air photos, 1959–66, and was named by the Advisory Committee on [[Antarctic]] Names after Leo E. Dorrel, U.S. Navy, a hospital corpsman with the [[Byrd Station]] winter party, 1966. On 2 November 2018, Westarctica's [[Honorary Consular Corps|Honorary Consul]] to Spain, [[Baron of Dorrel|Dr. Joachim Michael Adlfinger]], was granted the [[Peerage of Westarctica|Peerage title]] of Baron of Dorrel in recognition of his successful opening of Westarctica's consulate office in southern Spain.


Travis selected the title Consul-General due to its diplomatic origin and his desire to serves as a representative of the Achaean Territory to the world at large. As the territory had no cohesive government before and during its initial formation, there was no proper authority that could appoint Travis as the Head of Government.


As Consul-General, Travis held unlimited power in the Achaean Territory. He ruled by decree and was permitted to take any action that pleased him. He was the sole author of the [[Achaean Civil Code]] and the [[Achaean Royal Charter]]. These two documents, which comprised the whole constitution of Achaea, codified the government structure and placed all executive, legislative, and judicial authority in the Consul-General.
