The Archon can refer to:
- The head of state of the Empire of Whiterun
- The head of state of any of the successor states to the Empire of Whiterun
- The head of state of the City of Whiterun, after it’s independence from Hisitse Clan following the breaking of the Treaty of Eternal Peace.
- The head of state of a Whiterun of the 12th Dynasty
In each of these capacities, the Archon represents a form of implementation of Dual Power wherein both Civic and Military powers are separated in the state but are vested overall into the Archon, who acts separately and distinctly as the Monarch and Exarch.
