Prime Minister

--- CONTENT ---
Prime Minister or Prime Minister is generally the public office of head of government in parliamentary or semi-presidential states. Historically, the term Prime Minister has evolved from the word meaning “first servant (of the state, monarch)” in the United Kingdom. The term Prime Minister, on the other hand, declares himself to be “chairman of the ministers”, that is, the government.

In Germany, Prime Minister is the official title for the head of government of a federal state, apart from the city states of Bremen (President of the Senate), Hamburg (First Mayor) and Berlin (Governing Mayor). In German-speaking Switzerland, the term for the head of a canton is government president. In Austria, the corresponding counterpart is called Landeshauptmann. The head of government of the entire state is called Chancellor in both Austria and Germany.

In some presidential systems of government (such as Peru or the Republic of China (Taiwan)), the title Prime Minister is used to designate a government official. Its duties consist exclusively in the implementation of the directives of the President and in the public administration.

An “intermediate” between presidential and parliamentary systems is the semi-presidential system of government, in which the head of state and head of government share the governance. The situation in such a system of government, in which the President and Prime Minister belong to different political directions, is called cohabitation.

The Femininum is Prime Minister and Prime Minister. In German, the official form of address for men is “Mr. Prime Minister”, for women “Mrs. Prime Minister”.
