Christian Wulff was the President of Germany at the start of 2012. However, Wulff resigned on February 17, leaving Horst Seehofer as Acting President. The German people elected Joachim Gauck as the President, and he took office on March 18.

The Bundespräsident ("federal president") is the head of state of Germany.

The de facto most powerful office in Germany is the office of Bundeskanzler ("federal chancellor") which is currently held by Angela Merkel.
