Mon Mothma, first and only Chief of State of the Alliance to Restore the Republic

Chief of State (sometimes Chief Councilor, referring to the Advisory Council[1]) was the title given to the Head of State of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. For the entirety of the Galactic Civil War, Mon Mothma held the position of Alliance Chief of State.

Powers and abilities

The Chief of State of the Alliance to Restore the Republic was an elected dictatorship. Throughout the Galactic Civil War, Mon Mothma held the position of Chief of State. She had virtually unlimited authority over the Civil Government, although checks and balances were in place to ensure she did not overstep her position. Her decisions could be overturned by the Advisory Council with a two-thirds majority, in which case Mothma was required to step down from the position of Chief of State. The Chief of State position was up for election every two years. Each Allied Command had a single vote and the victor was elected by a simple majority vote.[2]
