There is more information available on this subject at Minister (title) on the English Wikipedia. |
A minister is the head of a government ministry. The title is used by both the Unified Earth Government and the Covenant.
Covenant ministers
Since San 'Shyuum are the only species entitled to hold civilian government positions, the position of minister is held exclusively by Prophets. Each of the separate Covenant Ministries is headed by its own Minister, with a Vice-Minister serving as a second-in-command. Examples of this are the Minister of Fortitude and the Vice-Minister of Tranquility. There are also differences between the different Minister's equipment. The Minister of Fortitude had a Gravity Throne with a cushion and probably more features untold. His Vice-Minister of Tranquility also had a throne, but is only equipped with a hard metal seat. The power and comfort of these thrones are a reflection of rank. Lower ranking Prophets were forced to group together, combining the power of their chairs, while full Ministers and higher had thrones capable of individual transport.[1]
Ministers have private offices, situated on top of large towers, with room for only one. This was used to send a message to members of the Covenant that "there was only room for one at the top". The Light of Sanghelios serve as this office's guards.
