Line 106:
The nine hereditary chiefs are nominally the leaders of each chiefdom, but they hold no executive authority and are not involved in the government. From among their membership, the chiefs elect a King, who the constitution states is "the symbol of the unity of the Tavari state" but is not even nominally the Head of State. A king rules until death, at which time a new king is elected.
The current constitution was ratified in 1963. There have been several iterations of Tavari government, but generally speaking, over time power has moved away from the King and hereditary chiefs and towards the elected governments.
