=== Background and history ===
Van'la Vinoxinda Ronango'O was born outside the USSE village of Bierzhan in the year 111 AJC. She was born to parents Nazua Ronango'O and Erik Kuznyssov. Nazua was the direct daughter of Xeroise and lived a humble life away from politics as a reserves member of the People's Army in the USSE and living on a farm in the State of Ljordmir; which is today the State of Kramenix. She lived with her husband Erik, who was a full-blooded Kolsson - which at the time was rare as a consequence of plague and famine that effected the Kolsson peoples - Erik was also a fellow communist and reserves member. Van'la Vinoxinda was named after the notable USSE politician Van'la Gaboliver, her middle name being named after an island off the coast of Gehenazar. As was traditional among the Kiurtrogoix Lo'Oix ancestors of her mother's side of the family - Van'la kept her mother's name and her father's name was not changed upon marriage. In terms of ancestry she was 50% Kolsson, 25% Lo'Oix, and 25% Garxoix.
When Van'la was a teenager, conflict was quickly erupting among the Duchy of Manzland and the USSE, a conflict that would become the Great Serronan War; a war that would involve nearly 80% of the nations on Eldham. Bierzhan was a border city very close to the Manz border, but luckily it was not the first to be attacked. Instead, in the other bordering State of Adalor, Manz and Vulpur troops attacked the city of Sanguinople killing numerous civillians. The attack was later known as the 'Carnage of Sanguinople'. Prior to the Carnage, Nazua planned to send her daughter Van'la to live with her grandmother Xeroise to keep her safe; but the plan was ushered into play once the Carnage became public news.
In about the year 129-130 AJC, Van'la Vinoxinda moved in with her grandmother Xeroise. Xeroise Ronango'O at this time was living primarily in Laria, but occasionally spending time and living on her home island of Kiurtrog to build up the settlement of Garkos. Just as Van'la's mother Nazua had expected; the Manz did eventually attack the Southern border in the year 131 AJC. In an attack on the farms near the Manz border, Vulp and Manz soldiers killed Nazua Ronango'O and Erik Kuznyssov. Prior to their deaths though, it is believed they killed seven Manz soldiers that had breached the Southern Manzland Wall and made their way into Ljordmir. Van'la was 20 years old at the time.
=== Larian residency ===
Following the death of both of her parents, she stayed with her grandmother and grandfather fully; Xeroise Ronango'O and Buoyo Bjorn owned a small flower shop in Laria that Van'la helped run at the time. Van'la also intermediately worked as an archivist and messenger for the Communist Party building in Laria throughout the remainder of the Great Serronan War that despite the killing of her parents was not even at its height yet. Her grandmother long wanted to move back to Kiurtrog indefinitely, the region had been left sparsely settled following the Kunir War which destroyed the city of Garkogorod that Xeroise was born and raised in. Indeed, Xeroise only moved to Laria after her term as General Secretary. Xeroise decided to repurchase land from the government and began rebuilding a settlement, to the more appropriate name 'Garkos' on the island and former spot of her old ruined city. The name simply meant 'fort' and the name of the original city was derived from the native Kiurtrogoix Garkoa clan. Van'la ultimately lived in the city of Laria for only about 4 years before moving to Kiurtrog at the age of 24.
=== Garkos residency ===
In about 135 AJC, Van'la Vinoxinda Ronango'O and her grandmother moved to the Isle of Kiurtrog to begin the ambition of rebuilding Garkos. Her grandfather, Buoyo Bjorn, moved back to the Northern Eldhamite city of Garxeto at this time and never returned to Laria. During a construction meeting of the USSE Commission of Development, Van'la met the older Ixalo Garkoa who was a Kiurtrogoix native himself and indeed a member of the clan whose namesake adorned the town. Van'la had fallen madly in love with Ixalo and they wedded soon thereafter. Indeed, the next year they gave birth to their first child Hilina. Four years later, Van'la would give birth to a second child named Diogo. The newlyweds loved their children dearly and raised them in traditional Lo'Oix values. Van'la was 29 at the time she gave birth to Diogo - who was her final child. Feeling content with two children, both Van'la and Ixalo began work at a local library and archive on the Isle of Kiurtrog, in a small village to the South of the island appropriately also named Kiurtrog while their small homestead where they lived nextdoor to Van'la's grandmother Xeroise was in Garkos.
=== Larian nationalism ===
Around the years of 152-155 AJC, Larian nationalism began to spike furiously for the first time; some suggesting the notion of independence. Van'la nor her grandmother Xeroise was 'natives' per se to Laria and as such did not feel such a relationship to the city. Two Larian General Secretaries had terms that many considered to be vastly successful, Lethe and Kato of Laria, and indeed Xeroise acted as an executive advisor to both. She however drew the line at the notion of anti-communist nationalism which was fervently taking root in the large city across the sea from Kiurtrog. Indeed, this nationalism and anti-communism began to result in purges of communists from the city; some of which moved to Kiurtrog or into the mainland USSE regions; unfortunately for the Ronango'O's, the Larians wanted the Isle of Kiurtrog for themselves.
In the year of 154 AJC, the first of what would be numerous purges and mass executions occurred of the Kiurtrogoix communists; most of whom were registered as members of the Communist Party of the USSE. Early that year, a ship would dock outside the village of Kiurtrog (on the Isle of Kiurtrog) where Ixalo and Van'la Vinoxinda were employed. Perhaps luckily for Van'la, she was ill that morning and did not attend to her work. Ixalo however was still in the village at the time the ship docked and Larian anti-communists and nationalists began to demand identification. While the Republic of Laria had not yet been founded, extremist factions who called themselves 'Loyalists' to the Larian regime of politicians formed paramilitaries. They began to create a registrar of local Kiurtrogoix communists.
That day in 154 AJC Ixalo Garkoa was asked for his identification and upon handing over his Communist Party identification card which was considered legal identification under the USSE government, he was taken into the mesa plateaus outside the village alongside an estimated fifteen other identified communists. Unbeknownst to Van'la who was now 43, her grandmother Xeroise, and her two children Hilina and Diogo whom were now 25 and 29 respectively, Ixalo Garkoa had been murdered and buried in a shallow grave in the sands of the mesa. His body would not be found until exactly 10 years later when the scattered decomposed remains of 16 people were found in the mesa. After his disappearance and word spread throughout the Isle of Kiurtrog that the Larians were identifying and kidnapping communists, the Ronango'O's chose to live in secrecy.
=== Occupation of Kiurtrog ===
In the following years after Ixalo Garkoa's death Van'la Vinoxinda Ronango'O found herself swamped by immense grief as were her two now adult children. The Republic of Laria had been declared by the Larian nationalist movement and now there was not even the USSE government and Communist Party to defend them. For over 20 long years, the Ronango'O's lived in near complete secrecy and hid their identity. They intended the outlive the Larian Republic, but unfortunately for them they would not see that day. Xeroise died in 166 AJC peacefully surrounded by her family - Van'la included which left Van'la a widowed mother to two adult children. In 169 AJC, Van'la's brother Diogo wedded a Lo'Oix woman named Táma Ortangon, of the elusive Ortangon family which had relatives in politics on the mainland USSE government. in 173 AJC, Diogo and Táma gave birth to one kid named Nazua Ortangon; named after Van'la and Diogo's mother who sacrificed her life to fight the Manz. Van'la continued to live a quiet life on the island as a retired librarian and now farmer alongside Diogo's now family and her children. All of them except for the children were wanted by the Larian government for previous affiliation with the Communist Party of the USSE but they lived under false names, using the last name Dovaré. Van'la personally lived under the name Katina. They would also religiously dye their hair to prevent being identified as Ronango'O's, all descendants of Buoyo Bjorn and Xeroise Ronango'O having characteristic silver tints in their hair.
=== Death ===
In the year 187 AJC, Van'la disappeared from her family's property after being searched for when her children and Diogo's family realized she had not seemingly woke up yet to attend to farmwork. Her whereabouts were unknown for two days before her body was found in a roadside ditch; having been burnt albeit not enough fuel was used which left articles of clothing and identifiable facial features intact. It is unknown precisely what happened to her, but it appeared as though in the middle of the night she had been kidnapped either by the Larian government outright or by local anti-communists that had determined her identity as the wanted Van'la Vinoxinda Ronango'O. This prompted her children Hilina and Diogo (including Diogo's family) to flee Kiurtrog indefinitely, taking a boat to the mainland Kramenix province of the USSE. They lived in Kaxkaya for the remainder of their lives; Hilina later wed and had a child named Arika. Before leaving the island though, they removed the old gravestone of Xeroise that had been marked with a fake name as she was living under an alias, and replaced it with a proper gravestone that marked her identity and gave her praise as the founder of Xeroism. Van'la Vinoxinda Ronango'O and Ixalo Garkoa were both given graves alongside Xeroise Ronango'O. The remains of all three were later secretly exhumed by the USSE government in 206 AJC and a tomb was built for her and her family in Greater Vostroya.
