interrex

Rome must have an interrex, and the law is specific.

Each five days a new interrex took office and tried to organize the elections, but without success.

He held various offices, such as interrex and dictator, but was never king himself.

He served for five days, then a second interrex was appointed to hold elections.

After the death of each subsequent king an interrex was appointed by the senate.

The interrex then formally declared the nominee to be king.

But those are all things which must come from the decisions of our interrex, so I shall not dwell upon them any further.

I will be succeeded by a second interrex who will also serve for five days.

It may not lie in his power to do so, in which case a third interrex will have to try.

My term as interrex is five days long.

The interrex would represent the country on the international scene and oversee the internal administration until a new king was elected.

The office of Interrex was also abolished during the transition from republic to empire.

Only a dictator (and perhaps an interrex) was above the tribunician veto.

"He has done exactly what he ought to do, appoint an interrex."

After a king died, the interrex selected a candidate to replace the king.

When he died, an interrex would preside over the senate and assemblies, until a new king was elected.

After the senate gave its final approval, the Interrex declared the individual king, and then returned to the ranks of the senate.

When an interregnum began, an Interrex (literally "interim king") was chosen.

No man could be an interrex unless he was the patrician head of a senatorial decury.

Sometimes public violence prevented the second interrex from this duty, with the result that a further series of interreges served until elections could be held.

During that time it was the Polish primate who served as an interrex (ruler between kings).

An interrex would be appointed by the Senate to arrange as soon as practicable new elections.

"That's correct, veto the appointment of an interrex."

An interrex presided over the assembly during interim periods between kings (the interregnum).

During the interregnum, the Senate elected a senator to the office of interrex to facilitate the selection of a new king.
