Eûdalîye Linå Vanole (6 March, 1902 – 31 January, 1991), or colloquially ELV, was an Autuzian politician who has served as Prime Minister and Leader of the All-Councilist Union between 1948 and 1959. Vanole established a one-party state of the All-Councilist Union to phase out that of the previous Remy Warnot government she had displaced following a Valduvian-sponsored coup in 1948, returning Auzance to councilism and its sphere of influence.
Vanole oversaw a period of moderate liberalisation, including the relaxation of some political persecution laws and the end to labour camps, however continued the preceding government's aggressive defunctionalisation projects, including the continued oppression of Gaullican persons and of different ideologies than "Union thought", particularly adherents to liberal democracy and to national functionalism.
An orthodox councilist, Vanole established the Autuzian economy and democratic structure as councilist, while refusing all but extremely minor market reforms, such as a partial move to put agriculture from collectivisation to co-operatives. The All-Councilist Union led by her amended the law to allow its existence while banning all other political parties, while elections were solely one-party between 1948 and 1966, mostly coinciding with Vanole's tenure. Her tenure saw a mild but noteworthy thaw with Eastern countries.
As the economy stagnated and a steady rise of anti-government protests began, discontent within the party - primarily from the reformist-left wing, led by the future Prime Minister Ritchåd Cougnî - rose to the extent that, largely accepted to be under Vanole's orders, Cougnî was sentenced on defunctionalisation acts and sent to jail for 18 months in 1958. This backfired, however; Vanole had pushed over the edge many within her party who had tolerated her authoritarianism, and accused her of mimicking Warnot's path towards totalitarianism, while Vanole's grip on the party was essentially lost after August of 1959. In October, Vanole resigned, and retired from representative politics at the following election.
