The Consuls (Selucian Consules, sg. Consul) are the two heads of state of Selucia. The two Consuls jointly serve as the leaders of the State and of the Government, as well as the commanders-in-chief of the Armed Forces.

Other than their different method of appointment, the two Consuls have fully equal rights and responsibilities. In order to limit the possibility that one Consul can have too much power as a result of this system, one Consul can veto the actions of the other, and
