The Trade Federation Cabinet is the chief decision-making body for governing the Trade Federation, its existence goes back to the re-founding, under Viceroy Corbin Esco. Comprised of the most senior officers of state, its authority to act on behalf of the Federation public and make decisions for them is almost without limit. All voting members of the group are nominated by the Viceroy and confirmed by a vote of the rest. They all serve at the pleasure of the Viceroy, and can be dismissed at will. Non-voting members such as advisers are also present. Typically former Cabinet members, the entire Cabinet must approve the elevation of any individual to their ranks. Nevertheless, the individuals which comprise this body form the most trusted, competent, and senior people in the whole state. Without the Cabinet to advise the Viceroy and carry out their will, running one of the largest governments in galactic history would be impossible.

Viceroy
| The Viceroy of the Trade Federation is the central figure in its political life. He is the ultimate authority in matters of state, warfare, and diplomacy, responsible for directing the enormous collective efforts central to the Federation’s success. Since the Federation’s re-foundation, over fifteen years ago, the crucial role played by the individuals elevated to the Viceroyalty has been played out time and again, and the maxim of every one of them to the present has been that ‘the Federation will rise or fall by the quality of its leaders.’ They are the driving force behind the entire government.

Regent (Inactive)
| Appointed by the Viceroy, the Regent is first in the line of succession for Viceroy of the Trade Federation. Not considered the second in command, but the most senior and closest advisor to the Viceroy. Regent is the only Cabinet position whom the Viceroy can appoint without cabinet consent. The Regent's main responsibilities are determined by the Viceroy, who defines the majority of the Regent's duties as circumstances require. Regent is considered one of the most honorable position within the Trade Federation as the member appointed has the full trust of the Viceroy and serves as his successor.

Duceroy
| The Duceroy is not only the second in command of the Trade Federation, but the Head of Government. With the discretion of the Viceroy, these individuals often exercise powers similar to that of the reigning Viceroy. As the head of government, Duceroys are tasked with making a reality the Cabinet’s ambitions for the Trade Federation. They are responsible for coordinating to whole apparatus of state to this end; such are the requirements of becoming Duceroy, that they have only ever been drawn from the greatest Cabinet Ministers serving at any one time.
