==Administrative History== | |||
In its nearly 30-year history, the minutiae of how Kolios has been administered has been wide, varied, and complicated, but it has almost always had a Sovereign and a Chancellor. | |||
===Sovereign of Kolios=== | |||
Kolios has had five Sovereigns, which have held the titles King, Queen, Empress, Emperor, Prince, and Grand Duke. Since 27 February 2022, the Sovereign has been Grand Duke Travis. During its time as a part of the Empire of Agber, the Princess of Kolios was not considered to be the ultimate Sovereign authority for the Principality. | |||

===Chancellor of Kolios=== | |||
The Chancellor's role in Kolios has varied wildly over the years. Initially, it was functionally a royal advisor, but changed to more of a direct representative while Arlene served as both Princess of Kolios and Empress of Agber. Currently, it is an elected position that is essentially Kolios' head of government, although with little actual administrative authority. | |||
