Abstract

The article analyzes, in the post-Independence period, the legal creation of the Provincial President's function as one of the sides of the conflicting process of developing new constitutional basis for the Empire. It points out that the political role of such presidents was directly linked to the need for separation and balance between the new political powers (executive and legislative) which, so significantly in those days, was one of the challenges for our first legislators.
