| President of the Czech Republic The President of the Czech Republic is the head of state of the Czech Republic. Unlike some heads of state, such as the modern Emperor of Japan or the British Sovereign, however, the office goes beyond that of a figurehead, conferring upon its holder a role in political affairs. Because many of his powers can only be exercised with the signatures of both himself and the Prime Minister of the Czech Republic, responsibility over some political issues is effectively shared between the two offices.
