Supreme Director

Supreme director (in Spanish director supremo) was a title used to designate certain heads of state in South America

  • The Supreme Director of the United Provinces of the Río de la Plata (modern Argentina), from 1814 to 1820.

Famous quotes containing the word supreme:

    “The Supreme Court would have pleased me more if they had concerned themselves about enforcing the compulsory education provisions for Negroes in the South as is done for white children. The next ten years would be better spent in appointing truant officers and looking after conditions in the homes from which the children come. Use to the limit what we already have.”
    —Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
