+
−
| The first Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Vitruvius assisted His Majesty King Livy I in forming the new government, along with drafting the original constitution.  Vitruvius, however, was not elected - indeed, he assumed the office of Prime Minister well before the first set of elections occured in 1756.

−
| Tiberius Cæcilius is the most famous, and possibly most popular, Prime Minister in the history of Eurasia.  Under the Whig Party platform, Cæcilius successfully forced a redraft of the constitution through the Sovereign, cutting off a large part of his power and placing the Parliament as the main branch of power in the UK government.

| Titius continued the reforms of his predecessor, Tiberius Cæcilius.  After noticing that the tax system was in disarray due to the fact that nobody could understand the tax laws, Titus reformed the tax laws to create a flat tax rate, as compared to earlier, curved tax systems.

| align=center | Adam Cooper
+
−
| Adam Cooper was unique in so far as that he supported full-fledged devolution between Victoria and Ganapati, Eurasia merely being a formal name, with no nationwide government.  In an attempt to realise this ideal, he eliminated the Armed Forces of the Crown, which recieved a large part of that time's budget.  The British, noting this time of weakness, attempted to retake Eurasia.  After advancing on Victoria, and seizing half of the main island, a unanimous vote from both Houses of Parliament repealed all legislation passed since 1784 relating to devolution, and the Armed Forces of the Crown managed to resist further British advances.  The only beneficial thing done by Cooper was the 1787 negotiation of the Treaty of Waltham Forest, which ended the war, and called for massive British aid to assist in rebuilding efforts.

| Martin Azzopardi, the first Conservative Prime Minister in the history of Eurasia, contributed to the foundation of Eurasia's libertarian ideals.  He managed to pass major legislation deregulating industry and increasing political freedoms.  However, some religious ideals influenced his policy-making, and he suggested the creation of a Church of Eurasia, a measure that was met with strong opposition.

| align=center | Joseph Cobbler
+
−
| Cobber was elected due to growing concern over the effects of industrialism on Eurasian society; he and the Agrarian Party called for the dismantling of all forms of industry and a return to an agriculture-based society.  However, after huge inflation and massive job loss ensued after his programmes, he was elected out of office, with his reforms abrogated.

+
−
| Petrov felt throughout his life that the people of Eurasia had become far too concerned with industry, and valued the rich over the poor.  Under his administration, major legislation was passed which abolished slavery and lifted the ban on alternate sexual orientations.  However, his plan to reduce the military was blocked after the Cooper fiasco.

| The first female prime minister in Eurasian history, Aoki personally formed the Labour Party, which was a fusing of the former Whig Party along with a number of socialist and moderate communist parties.  Aoki managed to create massive industrial regulations as well as nationalise key industries at the time.

| After the resignation of Riko Aoki, Patrick Doyle, her second-in-command, assumed the Party leadership.  He created the first minimum wage law in Eurasian history, as well as some of the first well-enforced environmental regulations.  Furthermore, Doyle started the Office of Welfare, under the purview of the Ministry for Work and Pensions.  The Office of Welfare assisted homeless individual and those beneath the poverty line.

| Under the Morris Administration, the continued socialist agenda was the main priority.  Morris attempted to abolish the British pound sterling as a currency and have the entire economy of Eurasia shift towards a money-less system, but Queen Hemali IV, in a rare excercise of power, blocked the passage of the legislation.  In 1842, Morris legalised gay marriage after major gay movements sprung up in Piccadilly and Argyll.

| Hayashi, former of the Liberal Party, is most notable for attempting to reform the constitution to grant greater authority to the Sovereign, a measure that passed in the House of Lords but failed in the Commons.  However, the Liberals managed to restore many free trade policies and re-started the introduction of capitalism.  Hayashi died in office, and the Liberals died along with him.

+
−
| The failures of the Liberals and Labour resulted in the rebirth of the Conservative Party.  Camilleri, from his first day in office, rapidly began a series of reforms.  Lowering the age of suffrage to eighteen, Camilleri formally codified the right of all Eurasian citizens, regardless of race, gender, or religion, to run for political office.  Camilleri undid the mass nationalizations that occured under Labour since Aoki and diverted funds from healthcare and education to assist the fledgling capitalist system initiated by Hayashi.  By the end of his time in office, the free market system was stronger than ever.  Camilleri also illegalised child labour and reformed the House of Commons by dividing the nation into ten provinces consisting of ten shires each, and making it so that each shire would elect one Member of Parliament for the House of Commons, thus creating the current electoral system.  Futhermore, Camilleri abolished the protectionist tariffs of Mercier and made it so that the wide majority of nations had de facto free trade agreements with Eurasia.

| In the 1864 General Election, the Conservative Party was elected by the largest margin in Eurasian history: 89%.  Wildly popular, Singh oversaw the passing of the Public Health Act of 1866, which combated feculent urban conditions, as well as the spread of deadly disease.  Singh also commissioned the creation of the Secret Intelligence Service and the Security Service.  Additionally, the Conservatives passed legislation devolving the federally controlled police services.

| Ortiz was the second Prime Minister in Eurasian history to be forced out of office, due to the fact that in early 1877, Ortiz was caught allocating government money to his private bank accounts.  Before that incident, however, Ortiz successfully directed a war against the Chinese to liberate the Isle of Bexley, which had been under Chinese control since 1456.  Casualties on the Eurasian side are a mere sixteen, whilst Chinese casualties number in the thousands.

| After the Ortiz scandal, the reputation of the Conservative Party suffered, with Hansen being elected by a slight margin only because of the still strong memory of Sir Arthur Camilleri.  The Conservatives passed the Local Government Act of 1883, which made it so that the shires and provinces had their own local governments.  Economic liberalization continued.
