Difference between revisions of "Prime Minister of Westarctica"

In December 2014, Travis altered his title from "Protector of Westarctica" to [[Grand Duke of Westarctica]] and once again assumed complete authority over the national government. The Prime Minster's position was gradually reduced to an advisory position, although he was still consulted on international affairs and continued to represent Westarctica as a delegate in the [[Antarctic Micronational Union]].

By late 2016, Grand Duke Travis began to seek out a new Prime Minister who might take a more active role in the administration of the government. Several potential candidates were vetted, but the front runner was Erik White, the Baron of [[Forrester Island|Forrester]]. The Grand Duke and Wolf came to an agreement that he would step down and hand over the office to his successor. However, days before the transfer of office was to occur, the Baron of Forrester had an altercation with the representatives of a close ally of Westarctica. Rather than risk damaging the relations between the two countries, Erik chose to remove himself from consideration.

Wolf was invited to remain in the office for several more months, but as time wore on and no suitable replacement was found, he stepped down from power on 23 May 2017. He resumed his duties as [[Minister of Defense]] and the position of Prime Minister remained vacant.
