Early life
Réjkárd was born on April 21st, 1979 in Séresrókar, in then Fyngarian Socialist Republic to father Ulerik Kórsig, a botanist working for the state run agriculture combinate and Fijone Erig, office clerk in the same combinate. His early childhood were turbulent times for Fyngaria, as with only being three years old, he faced the Fyngarian revolution. His parents actively took part in the revolution, his father Ulerik being wounded, and his mother being detained for three weeks.
After the revolution, his parents were left jobless and started to work on their family farm in the outskirts of Séresrókar. Réjkárd spent his early childhood on his family's farm, and moved back to the city when he enrolled at the University of Séresrókar, studying political sciencies, fueled by his parents' experiences of the revolution and integration of Fyngaria in the Lorecian Community.
After completing his compulsory military service he joined the ranks of the Fyngarian Unity, where he was noted by the high ranking party members. He graduated from university in 2002, where he met with his wife Ana Rógatig. The two have three children: Róbert (10), Ján (8) and Klára (3).
