| − | ===Emperor of the Natopians===
| |
| − | The current ruler of Natopia is styled as Emperor of the Natopians and exercises control over foreign policy, the military, and cultural aspects. This position has evolved from a ceremonial, judicial, religious figurehead to a powerful, secular monarch. The Emperor previously served as chief judge of Natopia until an independent Supreme Court was created by [[Ivo Angus]]. Since then, the Emperor has accumulated more power and control over external affairs, leaving internal affairs to the [[Chancellor]].
