State Offices of the East Asian Federation
The State Office apparatus of the East Asian Federation is the primary working body of the Executive branch of the East Asian Federation. Consisting of the entire executive bureaucracy and over 85 percent of federal employees, it is headed by the State Council, which consists of the Chief Executive-appointed heads of each State Office, the Chief Executive, Chief Legislator, and the Chief of Operations. The State Officers that make up the State Council oversee their respective office's management and organization. The Council meets weekly in the Executive Offices Complex at Federation Center, in Seogyeong.
