Sotty Haloranov (born Sotirian 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 Haloranov was born as Sotirian Perkins on 24 February, 1876 in Evertsgard, Saint Christopher's Parish (present day Evertsgard, Cuanstad) to Archibald Perkins, a blacksmith of mixed race, and to Tabitha Perkins (nee O'Halloran), a housewife of Caldish descent, 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 Vinalia took pity on him, and adopted him as his own, bringing him back to Vinalia 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 Soravian and his surname's similarity to his mother's maiden name, and his "penchant for embellishing stories," with his 1942 and 1961 accounts of his experiences in Vinalia barely matching up.
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.
Political career
Early political career
After Sotty Haloranov joined the Imaguan Subsection of the Estmerish Section of the Workers' International, he became involved in the party newspaper, where he wrote about his experiences and his treatment during his time at the dockyards in Cuanstad, and the necessity for the Imaguan working class to "stand together against the elites."
At the same time, he remained involved in the trade union movement, but now focusing on trying to get the trade unions to cooperate with one another. In 1907, he was able to help forge an agreement between several trade unions to form a trade union centre, the Imaguan Trade Union Federation, with Sotty saying that it would "strengthen ties among the labour movement." Sotty would become involved in the ITUF's oprations, although he was not in a leadership position for the ITUF.
In 1908, Sotty Haloranov would stand in his first election, standing for Tarnstead. Although he stood little chance of winning, due to the fact that most people in Tarnstead did not own enough property to be able to vote for the Chamber of Commons, this experience taught him "the value of campaigning and the value of appealing to the common man." He would place a distant third, only securing five votes.
This experience emboldened Sotty Haloranov to fight for universal male suffrage, as Haloranov believed that "if anyone is deprived of the opportunity to vote just because they are poor, like my parents and family were, then it is a sign that we need to change the system."
Haloranov would run again in 1909 and 1913 but failed to get elected. However, in 1917, Haloranov succeeded in getting elected to the Tarnstead constituency, defeating Democrat MP Harold Cavalier, and he was sworn in on 12 February, 1917.
