History

Historians are unsure when the title was added to the rank structure of the Trade Federation. At one time, Magistrate was the second in command of the Trade Federation. It is suggested that Duceroy was added under the reign of Viceroy Corbin Esco, but all efforts to resolve the issue have come up cold.

The Duceroy is the de facto head of the Department of the Treasury and Chair of the Funding and Appropriations Committee. At one time, the Duceroy was the leader of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, however that role has moved on to the Chairman of the Confederacy of Independent Systems Council.
