Executive Agency
The Executive Agencies of Valoria (French: agences exécutives valoriennes) are the broadest and uppermost agencies in the Valorian government's structure. They are distinct from independent agencies, which are smaller and have more specific focuses.
The ten executive agencies are as follows: the ministries of Finance, Education, Labor, Health, Justice, and the Interior, and the departments of Commerce, Defense, Foreign Affairs, and National Security. The ministries are under the purview of the prime minister, while the departments are under that of the president. The executive agencies are headed by ministers or secretaries instead of directors, and are generally considered more important and prestigious than independent agencies.
