Hjalmer Alekssun (19 February 1883 - 19 March 1965) was an Azmaran democratic socialist who served as Thingspeaker of Azmara from 1933 to 1947 and as Leader of the Workers' Party from 1929 to 1947. As of 2022, he is the longest-serving Thingspeaker in Azmaran history and was the first under the 1933 Basic Law, which alongside his wideranging social reforms has led to him being considered the "father of modern Azmara".
