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, the predecessor state to Westarctica. 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. On 10 June 2004, the Consul-General dissolved the government of the Achaean Territory and proclaimed himself Interim Grand Duke, pending the decree of the Grand Ducal Mandate, the new constitution of Westarctica, which gave Travis the title Grand Duke of Westarctica.
