The Kanfre of Lifréia is Head of state and head of the ruling Imperial House of Lamburg. Although the current Lamburg dynasty was created on 2015, on the foundation of the Empire, the existence of the institution of monarchy in Lifréia is traditionally considered to have its roots from the founding of the Russian Empire by Peter I Romanov in 1721.

The Kanfre of Lifréia's titles includes Head of State, Head of the Imperial Lifreian Armed Forces, among others. The Kanfre's Heir apparent has the titles of Kanfrerine and Grand Prince of Lamburg.
