Yaqu Viha

Yaqu Viha (11. Vismar 1883 - 16. Rankul 1946) also known as Ran Yavi or simply Yavi, was a Wika politician, author and the President of the Sentivan Island Republic during the Livian War. He is most known for his strong ideological stance, Yaquvianism, which was the official state ideology of Sentiva, and an ideology supported by AXAAN. The son of Viha Nitu, a revolutionary during the Sentiva Uprisings, Yaqu grew up in an anti-Milawic enviourment, and wrote about "anti-Qeelsianism" since his teens. 
Yaqu won the 1932 Sentiva elections as the head of the New Sentiva Thought Party. A popular candidate, he became an ideological hero to Laishanist groups in Qeelsia, who found similarities in his ideas of self-determination and ethnic nationalism, as well as a potential international ally. Groups directly associated with Yaqu Viha were responsible for the Mayaminin massacre, which effectively started the Livian War. Sentiva, with Yaqu Viha as president, joined the war in 1941.
Yaqu was sentenced to death by the Dorispoko Livian Tribunal on the 16th of Rankul 1946 along with 15 others.

When his wife was also mentioned, the titles of Dear Mother and Wise Father of Sentiva was often used. He also used the nom-de-guerre Ran Yavi in military settings.
