| Party | Name | Description | Time in office |
|---|---|---|---|
| Independence Faction | Vibius Vitruvius | 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. | 1745-1756 |
| Whig Party | Tiberius Cæcilius | Tiberius Cæcilius is the most famous, and arguably 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. | 1756-1771 |
| Whig Party | Flavius Titius | 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. | 1771-1784 |
| Federalist Party | 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 After advancing on Victoria, and seizing half of the main island, a unanimous vote from both Houses of Parliament repealed all legislation passed since 1784 relating to devolution, and the Armed Forces of the Crown managed to resist further British advances.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. | 1784-1787 |
| Conservative Party | Martin Azzopardi | 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. | 1788-1800 |
| Agrarian Party | 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. | June 1800 - November 1800 |
| Humanist Party | Ivan Petrov | 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. | 1800-1806 |
| Labour Party | Riko Aoki | 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. | 1806-1817 |
| Labour Party | Patrick Doyle | 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. | 1817-1832 |
| Labour Party | Lachlan Morris | 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. | 1833-1845 |
| Labour Party | Enzo Mercier | Enzo Mercier, due to overextension of welfare programmes, created massive debt, causing him to entirely scale back on them, enraging millions, and ultimately leading to the end of fifty years worth of Labour rule. | 1845-1850 |
