  Head of State - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In parliamentary systems the Head of State may be merely the nominal chief executive officer of the state, possessing theoretical executive power (hence the description of the United Kingdom monarch's government as Her Majesty's Government, a term indicating that the government acts on her behalf and not parliament's).
Most states require that all bills passed by the house or houses of the legislature be signed into law by the Head of State.
A Head of State is generally the notional or literal commander-in-chief of a state's armed forces, holding the highest office in all military chains of command.
