president
some countries have alternative provisions for senior appointments: in sweden, under the instrument of government of 1974, the speaker of the riksdag has the role of formally appointing the prime minister, following a vote in the riksdag, and the prime minister in turn appoints and dismisses cabinet ministers at his/her sole discretion.

head of state
other countries evolve into something akin to a semi-presidential system or indeed a full presidential system. weimar germany, for example, in its constitution provided for a popularly elected president with theoretically dominant executive powers that were intended to be exercised only in emergencies, and a cabinet appointed by him from the reichstag, which was expected, in normal circumstances, to be answerable to the reichstag. initially, the president was merely a symbolic figure with the reichstag dominant; however, persistent political instability, in which governments often lasted only a few months, led to a change in the power structure of the republic, with the president's emergency powers called increasingly into use to prop up governments challenged by critical or even hostile reichstag votes. by 1932, power had shifted to such an extent that the german president, paul von hindenburg, was able to dismiss a chancellor and select his own person for the job, even though the outgoing chancellor possessed the confidence of the reichstag while the new chancellor did not. subsequently, president von hindenburg used his power to appoint adolf hitler as chancellor without consulting the reichstag.
