Emiliano Zendejas (September 23, 2115 - July 14, 2213) was a Carinansian politician, prosecutor, and attorney, who served as the 24th President of Carinansia from 2169 to 2177. A member of the Carinansian Workers' Party, he previously served as the Governor of San Luis from 2156 to 2166, a San Luis State Senator from 2151 to 2156, and independently as the Assistant Prosecutor General of Nezazingan Province from 2148 to 2151. His presidency constituted the entirety of the Zendejas Era, and he is considered by many as one of the most prominent socialist figures in Carinansian political history.
Born in Zamogro, Aparicia, he was the third child of Benito Zendejas and Marta Guamiro, and a member of the House of Zendejas. He was one of the contemporary few remaining direct male-line descendants of Alberto V. He was raised in Guapiro, until he turned age 15, when his family moved to Villasingo, San Luis. After graduating in 2134, he began attending the Revolutionary College of Oligi in the neighbouring state of Mangulak, pursuing a Bachelor of Laws. In 2137, he began studying a Master of Laws at the State University of Voclaria. He graduated in 2141 cum laude, becoming a full-time clerk for the Nogajuca Provincial Court. Over the next seven years, he rose through the ranks, until he was ultimately appointed as the Assistant Prosecutor General of Nezazingan Province by Gov. Leitao. After overseeing several high profile cases that resulted in his successful prosecution of the Sunset Killer, the perpetrators of the Zanetii Bank Scandal, and the Paschoal Kickbacks, he became popular across the region.
In 2151, he resigned from his position as a Prosecutor as he begun his campaign in the special election for the newly-opened position as a Senator for the 23rd District of San Luis in the State Congress, amid promises of reducing corruption and promoting equitable prosperity across the state beyond the Voclaria City Metropolis. Towards the end of his first full term, he began a campaign for the state Governor position. During his time in the position, he expanded upon his earlier ideology, establishing a wealth redistribution tax, imposing heavy traffic bans in the center of Voclaria City, and greatly expanding public transportation throughout the state.
After leaving the presidency, he remained an outspoken critic of presidents across the spectrum, specifically criticising the increasing political polarisation. He remained a key member of the Carinansian Workers' Party Advisory Council until 2197, when he retired from advocacy, and endorsed Erasmo Ruiz for a second term. Until 2213, he remained outside of the public eye, preferring to conduct humanitarian operations internationally. In July, when he was beginning an expose of an emerging Brotothian Supremacy over Myrineos, he was stranded in the area after the beginning of the Azlan invasion of Tecia. Despite surviving the initial bombings, he was captured on July 8, and was executed only six days later on July 14.
