Frawartish Partitawa, also known internationally as Phraortes, was a political figure in Shirazam who is counted among the "Heroes of the Republic" with the title of mardumsolore Adamat, "Father of Democracy" for his work in establishing the political and scholastic cadre of the Fourth Republic' Constitution.
Early life
Born in 1858 in Khersig in a family of Skadians notaries. Originally his parents lived in Shirkal but were involved with the city's parliament and the failed project of a First Republic of Shirazam which led to his family fleeing the capital for Khersig. Nonetheless, his father was arrested a year after his birth and his mother returned to Shirkal where she made a living as a private teacher with the help of her eldest son and Frawartish' elder brother who took job as a construction worker. Frawartish himself would go through the Zilungese' controlled public education but with his mother' own additions. Thus he became able to read and speak in both phal skad and Skadian. In his teenage year he began working as an assistant for a publisher. He moved temporarily to Zilung Chen, from 1870 to 1874, to work as a journalist and returned to Shirkal afterward to become his newspaper editor. Disagreements on the direction of the journal led to Frawartish departing to create his own newspaper, the "Lion's Voice", which quickly became famous for pushing the limits of what the Zilungese censorship could tolerate.
