Head of state
A
head of state
is the highest-ranking position in a
sovereign state
and is
vested with powers
to act as the chief public representative of that
state
. In most countries, the head of state is a
natural person
, but the position is held by a
body of persons
in the
Federal Council of Switzerland
and the
Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina
and, in two other
United Nations member states
, the position is held by two persons jointly: the
Co-Princes of Andorra
and the
Captains Regent of San Marino
. The role and functions of the office of a head of state may range from being purely ceremonial
figurehead
to one that wields
autocratic
executive power
; as the nature of the position of a head of state is for each state to decide; and although several models or patterns exist, there are many idiosyncrasies in different states which preclude tidy classifications.
