'''Franklin Victor Barvata''' (born 7th July 1968) is a [[KaltarKaltariezh|KaltariKaltariz]] politician who is currently serving as [[Wikipedia:Prime Minister|Prime Minister]] of [[Great Morstaybishlia]] and [[Leader of the Labour Party (MBE)|Leader of the Progress Party]] from July 2022. He previously held the position of Prime Minister between 2019 and 2021 and Progress leader between 2017 and 2021. He was Secretary of State for the Home Department from 1999 to 2005. Barvata has been MP for Cavenhelm since 1991. Ideologically, he identifies as progressive left.
 
Barvata grew up in KaltarKaltariezh and was praised as an academic genius, completing his Post 16 Examination at the age of 14. He attended Lambertupol University at the age of 16. During University, Barvata had joined the Progress Party and volunteered as staff at party lectures, and by 18 he had tried for local council elections but was unsuccessful. When Barvata graduated from University with a Bachelor's in Politics and International Relations, he campaigned and was elected to the House of Representatives as MP for Cavenhelm in 1991; at the time he was the youngest person to ever be elected to the House at the age of 22. During the [[Verlhanz Rothgerus|Rothgerus Administration]] Barvata served in the cabinet. From 2005 to 2012 he held two shadow cabinet positions. Barvata campaigned and won the 2011 Cavenhelm Mayoral Election and subsequently served one term alongside being a Member of Parliament until 2015 where he ushered in major redevelopment of the city's West Harbour Communities, introduced greener methods of transport and established the first vehicle-free zone in the city center.
 
During the [[Auroran-Pacific War]] Barvata became a prominent Progress politician with his foreign policy rhetoric. He became Leader of the Opposition on his election as Progress Party leader in August 2017, following the sudden death of his predecessor, Arlin Rudiger. Barvata scrutinised the incumbent Prime Minister [[Walter Johannes]] for his [[2018-2019 military intervention in Rodenia]] after the prime minister had promised but was faltering on delivering the 5 Year Post-War Plans. In the [[2019 Great Morstaybishlia General Election|2019 General Election]], Barvata was appointed prime minister and led the Progress Party to its first government in 14 years. He followed through with his election campaign and withdrew from [[Rodenia]] to focus on internal matters, but this led to [[Kirk Santon]] establishing himself as Supreme Archon and breaking the previous governments' agreement. In June 2020 Barvata condemned the [[Union of Commonwealth Alliances|UCA]]-[[NSTO]] Coalition but quickly responded as a mediator to Rodenia's invasion of [[Puntalia]] by sending the Home Fleet and hosting the 2020 PCT Sani Bursil Summit, which prevented war between the UCA-NSTO Coalition and Rodenia's allies of [[North Ethalrian Confederacy|North Ethalria]] and [[Packilvania]] but dampened the fragile relationship between [[Great Morstaybishlia]] and [[Norgsveldet]].
 
Following the [[July 2020 KaltarKaltariezh attacks]] and the [[August 2020 KaltarKaltariezh police attack]], Barvata initiated a state of emergency which was declared across Great Morstaybishlia to help fight terrorism and civil unrest in eastern KaltarKaltariezh, Barvata enacted Black Alert with a curfew of 21:00 within the conflicted provinces. In October 2020 Barvata came under heavy scrutiny from the Opposition after Progress passed the controversial Anti-Terrorism Bill which gave the cabinet plus executive military command more powers to act against groups or people that fall under an umbrella term of terrorism.
 
Barvata survived a deadly [[Lantern Tower bombing|rocket launcher attack]] in August 2021, where many others were not as fortunate. He is currently recovering in Ewising, [[Joralesia]]. Due to his absence in politics, [[Riannar Karmer]] successfully rallied enough Progress MPs to [[2021 Progress Party leadership election (MBE)|contest his Progress leadership]], where he was constitutionally and physically unable to run. Karmer succeeded him in September as [[Leader of the Labour Party (MBE)|Leader of Progress]] and prime minister. Barvata was heavily critical of Karmer during his tenure, later contesting his leadership when the Nicki Jenkins report was released, which later resulted in the conviction of Karmer as a [[Wikipedia:Sex offender|sex offender]]. Barvata succeeded uncontested, and assumed leadership and thus prime ministership for a second time on 12 July 2022.
Line 77:
Born in Lambertupol in 1968, he is the son of father Walmrick Barvata, a physician, and Erna Barvata (née Phalyf), a regional manager for [[D&D]]. The couple divorced in 1996. Barvata has three siblings, Walmrick Jr., born in 1970, Gavin, born in 1971 and Colette, born in 1979.
 
The Barvata family legacy is traced back to the village of Amberiz in Dovia. One of Barvata's paternal great-grandfathers, Morvan Barvata, was born in 1900 from a [[Wikipedia:Breton language|KaltarKaltariz]]-only speaking household, but was sent to an Staynish orphanage after his family were killed in the [[Great War]]. Barvata commonly visited his maternal grandfather Elver, who, after coming from a farming background, became a mechanic and died in 2007.
 
Barvata was raised in a [[Thaerism|Thaerist]] family, but he is [[Wikipedia:Agnostic atheism|agnostic]] today.
