Susete Hernandéz Díaz Niño (born 4 February 1931), better known as Susete Hernández Niño or Susete Hernández, is an Rugidoan former politician who served as President of Gran Rugido from 1962 to 1970, briefly deposed from power by the National Reorganization Process in 1968. She holds the distinction of having been the first woman to have had the title of "President" of her nation, as opposed to long standing tradition of female prime ministers that have been elected by presidents ever since the 1930s,.
As president, she nationalized electric companies, created the National Commission for Free Textbooks (1963), reformed the education system, and opened important museums such as the Museum of Natural History and the National Museum of Anthropology in Laurua. While impopular due to the growing leftist rebellion, she maintained and enforced her government even through it led to acts of repression the leftists took advantage of, such as the Massacre of the Campus Mayor in Santa Elisa. While on office, the Gran Rugidoan Civil War began when generals within her army deposed her from power.
Her last two years of administration are mostly overshadowed due to her actions during the conflict that led to her redemption on popular image by the Rugidoans that embraced her as "Heroine of the Nation" and subsequently "Spiritual Leader of the Nation". After she leaved the office, she decided to retire from politics and currently lives in Santiago de Lujambio. Despite acts of repression in her government and during crossing civil war, Hernández Niño is still one of the most popular Rugidoan president of the 20th century.
Her presidency is considered to be the end of the Rugidoan Political Crisis that was still ongoing ever since the end of the Rugidoan Spring.
After the death of Emilio Larrázabal Torres on 3 March 2020, Susete is the oldest former living Rugidoan president.
