Sotty Edmiston TBD (born Sotirian Edmiston Perkins, 24 February, 1876 - 6 August, 1969) was the seventh Prime Minister of Imagua and the Assimas, serving from 1952 until 1956, and a trade union leader.
Early life
Sotty Edmiston (TBD) was born as Sotirian Edmiston Perkins on 24 February, 1876 in Evertsgard, Saint Christopher's Parish (present day Evertsgard, Cuanstad) to Archibald Perkins, a blacksmith, and to Tabitha Perkins (nee Barnett), a housewife, as the youngest of six children, and the only son to survive childhood.
His early life was marked with tragedy: his father abandoned Tabitha and their children in 1879, and in 1881, Martha died of scarlet fever, leaving Sotty and his siblings orphaned.
According to Sotty's biography, a sailor from TBD took pity on him, and adopted him as his own, bringing him back to (TBD) where he was sent to school and studied at a university. In gratitude, Sotty would adopt the sailor's surname as his own. However, most historians dispute the veracity of Sotty's claims, citing Imaguan census records from 1891 reporting that he and his siblings lived with his paternal uncle near Lundholm, his surname not matching grammatical rules in the TBD language, and his "penchant for embellishing stories."
In 1899, Sotty moved to Cuanstad where he took a job as a dockworker. His experience as a dockworker made him interested in politics, particularly as he resented "contributing to the economy of Imagua but not having a say in the politics of this land." This led him to becoming involved with the Dockworker's Union by 1900, and by 1903, he would join the Imaguan Subsection of the Estmerish Section of the Workers' International.
