- Prime Minister
Tanjinen Riika, born on January 2, 1987, in Sainðaul, is the newly elected Prime Minister of Izaland (since July 1st, 2024). At just 37 years old, she is the youngest and third woman to hold the position. A member of the Minjudān party, Riika is known for her moderate views and strong personality, which have earned her respect across the political spectrum.
Before her current role, Riika served as the Minister of the Environment and Green Policies in the previous Tariki government. During her tenure, she championed significant environmental reforms, including the phasing out of thermal engine cars by 2030 and the approval of three new nuclear power plants. Her commitment to green policies continues as Prime Minister, with a focus on reducing thermal energy production and enhancing the country's resilience against natural disasters.
Riika's political journey is deeply influenced by her family background. Her father, Heriki Tanjinen, is a well-known politician, and her mother, Sunami Sáku, is a Kalmish language teacher with Izaki and Kojolese heritage. Despite facing challenges during her adolescence, including her parents' divorce and her father's initial preference for her older brother Hayaru in political mentoring, Riika emerged as a determined and capable leader.
Her academic credentials include a degree in International Relations from the University of Sainðaul and a PhD in "Innovation in Environmental Policies" from McKnight University in Wahanta, FSA. Riika's personal life is equally inspiring; she married Kiiras Nokedo, a former forest ranger, in 2021, and is known for her passion for outdoor activities, including hiking, diving, and martial arts.
As Prime Minister, Riika faces significant challenges, including addressing the aging population, low birth rates, and the separatist movement in Equatorial Izaland. Her leadership, while popular among younger generations, has drawn criticism from conservative circles, particularly regarding pension reforms. Nonetheless, Riika remains focused on her vision of maintaining Izaland's neutrality, fostering cultural unity, and driving forward her green policy agenda.
- President of the Republic
The President of the Republic (大統領, "Daitsōnlyān") is the head of State of Izaland. He or she is elected by direct suffrage every five years, and is the commander-in-chief of the Izaki Self-Defense Forces and chairs the High Council of the Judiciary. A citizen who has reached the age of 30 can be elected president. He is also involved in foreign policy and national defense. The President of Izaland assumes office by taking an oath before the Izaki Parliament and delivering a presidential address. The President's term lasts for five years, ensuring that no officeholder can be reelected by the same houses, which have a six-year mandate. This provision grants some freedom from excessive political ties to the appointing body. The President's term may end due to voluntary resignation, death while in office, permanent disability resulting from severe illness, or dismissal for crimes of high treason or an attack on the Constitution, as happened in 1983 with the Tsawano Impeachment case.
- Elected by direct suffrage every five years.
