Vilvo Orbraggar was a Drevstranese military leader, nationalist politician, and revolutionary who served first as a Warlord during the Drevstranese Civil War and then as the foundator and leader of the First Mervoshia until his resignation in 1941.
Born in the Mrengrave, in western Drevstran, Orbraggar was a Major-General of the Triple Crown's Army when Hortankh Bolsar launched his coup and deposed the monarchy. Despite the two men cordial relations before the civil war, Orbraggar would remain unaffiliated to the Bolsarist faction and instead became a Warlord, gaining control over most of the Furodomark. At first considering the option, he ended up refusing to support Ansmar II ill-fated attempt to return to the throne, instead becoming a staunch supporter of the country's provincial parliaments as the sole holders of public legitimacy. After his victory in the civil war, Orbraggar and the parliaments established the modern republic of Drevstran, with Orbraggar as its first leader under the title of "Mayor of the Palace".
As leader of Drevstran, Orbraggar was the instigator of profound political and economic reforms, developing the industrialisation of the country and its attractivity for foreign investors. He also introduced the foundations for a democratic regime, even if it wouldn't go further because of his and his successor's grasp on the system until the Black Streets Days.
He served three mandates of seven years as Mervoret given that his party, Yednosc! had completely taken over the electoral process. But in 1941, he decided against presenting himself for a new mandate and decided to retire from politics at the age of 86 because of health concerns. He would die two years later of an aneurysm.
Early life
Vilvo Orbraggar was born in the village of Tsaro, in the region of the Mrengrave in Western Drevstran, in 1864. At the time, Tsaro was a small village predominantly a Lushyod and Docetic settlement, with a small Jewish community. His father, Edmond Orbraggar, was the Yätzelember (head of law enforcement) in the village and a small time career policeman from a local family of small landowners. His mother, Jadott Orbraggar, born Misremond, was the third daughter of a Miller-born Hotelier who owned an Inn in the Furodomark. Vilvo himself was the couple's third son. As a career civil servant with bloodties within his commune and married to a woman doubly tied to professions of ill repute, milling and innkeeping which were both always suspected of thievery and banditry, the reputation of Edmond Orbraggar was sulfurous even though no proof of specific wrongdoing ever came up to tarnish his name, even after his death.
