The '''Coordinator of Worlds''', usually abbreviated to '''Coordinator''', is the head of state of the [[Draconis Combine]].
+
The '''Coordinator of Worlds''', usually abbreviated to '''Coordinator''', is the head-of-state of the [[Draconis Combine]]. He is essentially an absolute autocrat and commander-in-chief of the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]]. The office is firmly in the hands of [[House Kurita]].
 
 
==History==
 
The Coordinator is essentially an absolute autocrat and commander-in-chief of the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]]. The office is firmly in the hands of [[House Kurita]].
 
  
 
Many Coordinators have avoided to exercise their power directly, allowing those around him to take care of most business. The office's mystique is as important than his actual power. In order to preserve this mystique many Coordinators have issued their orders indirectly, sometimes in the form of a riddle or ''haiku''.

For all its immense power, the office of Coordinator is not an easy one to hold. Being essentially an absolute dictator he will be held responsible for most major successes and military victories but also for most failures and military defeats. A high number of Coordinators have fallen victims of assassination. It is an open secret that many of these deeds were committed by young fanatical military officers of the Draconis Combine or by covert intelligence operatives of the [[Internal Security Force]].

Siriwan McAllister-Kurita, the only female to even hold the rank, was in several cases just called '''Brevet Coordinator''' because the patriarchal nobility of the Combine would not accept her as ruler in her own right.<ref name=HHKp27b>''Handbook: House Kurita'', pp. 27–28: "Grace Under Siriwan"</ref>
