Sea City Council Leader

The Sea City Council Leader is the de facto ruler of Sea City. The title is currently held by Benjamin von Holmberg. The Sea City Council Leader's de jure role is to lead the Sea City Council.

History
On the 26th of May 2018, the Sea City Council was formed by the Sea City State. With the formation of the Sea City Council, Sea City would no longer be a dictatorship. Benjamin von Holmberg then appointed himself the Sea City Council Leader. As the Sea City Council Leader and sole member of the council, Benjamin had absolute power. He used this power to by himself decide who was going to sit on the council. Benjamin only decided on one candidate; Fabian Thalin.

Benjamin's first decision was to announce the official founding day of Sea City as the 28th of February 2016. The second decision was to start the Sea City Jungle Expansion Project. The later decision was made with Fabian's presence.

Position and powers
The Sea City Council Leader wields de facto absolute power over Sea City's policies. This is because of the Sea City Council Leader always have the final say in the Sea City Council's decisions. While it is illegal for citizens of Sea City to question the regime's decisions, the Sea City Council members are free to question the decisions of the council leader.

While the Sea City Council Leader wields de facto absolute power, they can't do whatever they want. For example, they can't start a war without a majority in the council. Nor can they end alliances or trading partnerships. That being said, the Sea City Council Leader does have the power to banish citizens, so in theory, they could banish the other council members and thereby always have a majority, though they would probably face international consequences.
