You have found a link that leads nowhere... deliberately.
Reasons?
The reason for this is to clean up the Special:Wantedpages, thus making our lives easier behind the scenes.
So, what links lead here?
There are too many to bother wasting our time listing. So here's a list of pages that link here. The Colonial Government is a democratically elected government, headed by a President. The president at the time of the Cylon attack was President Adar. Upon his death, he was succeeded by President Laura Roslin, who had previously been the Secretary of Education. Roslin was appointed the presidency by the Case Orange governmental contingency mechanism.
The President is assisted by a Cabinet. Each government department is headed by a minister or secretary. The Vice President and the Cabinet are included in the line of succession. (Mini-Series)
