Shih Hido

Shih Hido (1901 - 1978) was the wife of Yaqu Viha, president of the Sentivan Island Republic during the Livian War. A teacher by trade, she met Yaqu in Dorispoko in 1922, and married him in 1923, when she was 22 and Yaqu was 40.
When Yaqu and the New Sentiva Thought Party came to power in 1932, Shih became a public symbol. Propaganda portrayed her as a loyal and caring wife, having time for both child-rearing and work. She and Yaqu had 8 children. Shih was also the official photographer for the New Sentiva Thought Party.
In 1945, at the end of the Livian War, she and Yaqu were arrested by the United Livian Armies of Peace. Although Yaqu was sentenced to death for war crimes, Shih recieved no punishment, which was common for wives of those sentenced at the Dorispoko Livian Tribunal. She and her children moved to Salvadia in 1947, but returned to Dorispoko in 1952.
