The Queen Regnant is Head of State in Ladonia, and undertakes constitutional and representational duties as defined by the Ladonian Constitution or as the need arises. Duties often include playing a part in internal State functions (i.e. Parliament must be opened, Orders in Council have to be approved, Acts of Parliament must be signed, and meetings with the President must be held) and also require The Queen to be the outward “face” of Ladonia to the rest of the world (i.e. receive foreign ambassadors and high commissioners, entertain visiting Heads of State, and make State visits overseas to other countries, in support of diplomatic and economic relations).

The monarchy in Ladonia is similar to other European constitutional monarchies in that the sovereign does not have ultimate power, but shares executive power with a president who is elected by the citizens.

One interesting difference between Ladonia and other constitutional monarchies is that in Ladonia, succession is constitutionally defined as matrilineal primogeniture, which means that the heir to the throne is the oldest child of the mother’s bloodline with preference to daughters over sons.
