Dictator of Selucia

The Dictator of Selucia (fem. Dictatrix) is an extraordinary magistrature in Selucia that holds the absolute authority to perform tasks beyond the power of the Senate and Consuls. The office of Dictator was initially established in 1799 during the Unification of Selucia, and was continued, with interruptions, to the present day. Most recently the office was reestablished as part of the 3838 Constitution.

When the office was first establish, it did not carry negative connotations, however the right of the office to wield absolute power has made its name a synonym for oppressive and/or abusive rule. Outside Selucia there have been few instances of titular use of the office, with notable exceptions in Tukarali and Talmoria.
