Daniel Rothenbury

Daniel William Henry Rothenbury (born 1 October 1973, age ) is a Commolacian politician affiliated with the United Front currently serving as the General Secretary of Commolacia, serving since his election in 2020. Born in Plymouth, Rothenbury was influenced from a young age to the ideals of communism, with his father being an activist. In 1996, Rothenbury got his political start after graduating from Brownley University, joining the Commolacian Communist Party. This party merged in 2018 with the National Front to become the United Front. Rothenbury quickly rose the ranks of the party, and soon became the party's leader. In 2020, Rothenbury was elected General Secretary in a sweeping landslide.
Soon after taking power, Rothenbury and his government began a period of "national reclamation", as he called it. This involved taking means to ban all other political parties, arrest and execute political opponents - most notably Megan May, and transforming Commolacia into a one-party socialist state. Rothenbury's actions have been condemned by many nations, though he has received praise from the Comintern, an association of communist political parties, for implementing communism and keeping his country stable. The stigma surrounding his actions died down in late 2021, as the government turned to more pressing matters such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
Rothenbury maintains a very flucticious approval rating, reaching it's lowest point in November of 2020 but reaching it's highest in May of 2022. Outside politics, Rothenbury lives a semi-public personal life. He resides in Ashdown, the capital of Commolacia, with his wife, Elyssa, and two children. He also owns a private estate near Slandown in Lakes District.
