What about Arthur Seyss-Inquart is Chancellor?I'm thinking President Goering, Chancellor Goebbels & Economy Minister Speer?

And the holder of the title Reichsmarschall was Goering.I doubt that the Nazis would just revert to the Weimar system minus democracy.
My best bet is still that the "Ministerrat für Reichsverteidigung" would be the actual government.
The next guy in charge would probably be a "Chairman" or a "Reichsmarschall".

Depends on how Germany wins. If Hitler doesn’t purge in 1944 Rommel (which he only did because Rommel backed a coup against Hitler when the Nazis were loosing, so if they won the war Rommel would still likely be in his position) could become a leader. He was considered a war hero by most Germans in a similar way Eisenhower was considered a war hero by most Americans.
I know Hitler mentions the senate in his speech appointing Goering and Hess as successors but did he actually ever propose a senate? Or was it just Hitler going off the rails mid speech for a second? I don’t know of any actual proposal or plan to create a senate or anything akin to a ruling body or council as or similar to Italy’s. This is is complete contrast to Hitler’s leadership style and philosophy where is divide and rule and survival of the fittest or more accurately survival of the most ruthless. Hitler thought Mussolini keeping a council and the monarchy was bad as it created another center of power one that can be used by opponents to build support against you.This way, I can see a Second Night of the Long Knives on the SS and, maybe, even their disarmament and the reinstitution of the Kriminalpolizei, most likely by Führer Speer. Göring would still need the SS to do the dirty job in Eastern Europe and Loyal Heinrich may feel content with his new Führer.
Also, Hitler proposed the creation of a Senate, similar to the Grand Council of Fascism, to elect a new Führer. Would he go on with this plan as he feels that the time is nearing to pass on the Heil-ing salute?
If not and if Göring manages to outlive Hitler, would he name a succesor the same way as Hitler, maybe from the leadership of the Luftwaffe? Führer Erhard Milch?
