Notes
In the Commonwealth Realm s (with the exception of the United Kingdom ), the head of state, Queen Elizabeth II, is represented by a Governor-General . The Preface to the Constitution of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea states, "The DPRK and the entire Korean people will uphold the great leader Comrade Kim Il Sung as the eternal President of the Republic, defend and carry forward his ideas and exploits and complete the Juche revolution under the leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea ." Kim Il Sung died in 1994. The Council as a whole makes decisions. The President of the Swiss Confederation serves solely in a primus inter pares The Constitution of Japan does not stipulate a Head of State nor recognises the sovereignty of the Emperor by virtue of supreme law.
