Signature

Verlhanz Benjamin Rothgerus (4 October 1935 - 16 April 2015) was a former Staynish politician and former Prime Minister of Great Morstaybishlia from 1998 to 2005. He served as MP for Fort Jubrayn for his entire political career from 1970 until his retirement in 2012.

Early life and political career

Verlhanz Benjamin Rothgerus was born in Aegis, South Staynes, to Setznan-born mother Valina Griffiths and father Donald Barthelemy. Along with his older sister and parents, Verlhanz moved to Fort Jubrayn in 1941 at the age of 6. Verlhanz attended Jubrayn University and studied mathematics, which he dropped in his second year. After a year away he re-started his University life and got a Doctoral in politics. He moved away to Jersia City at the age of 25 but was unsuccessful in starting any such political career. He moved back to Fort Jubrayn two years later. During the 1963 General Election he campaigned for MP for Fort Jubrayn but lost out by three thousand votes. He campaigned again in the 1970 General Election and won the seat with a 56.5% majority. He was a candidate for Labour Party leader in the early 90s but was outvoted by Patrick Galliford. Patrick never won an election and eventually was ousted out because of his heavily racist opinions. Verlhanz became the Labour Party leader in 1994 and won the 1998 General Election with a 34 seat majority. He lost the 2005 General Election to Walter Johannes and stepped down from Labour Leader the same day. He retired from the position of MP for Fort Jubrayn after 42 years. Verlhanz suffered a heart attack whilst visiting his family in Setzna and died on the 16th of April 2015, aged 79.

Marriage and descendants

Verlhanz married Mary Yune in 1962 at the age of 27 in the Cathedral of Lights in Besowene. Him and Mary had their only child, Verlhanz Rothgerus Jr at 30 and 24. In 1970, during his first year as MP for Fort Jubrayn, him and his wife had a large argument which involved him suggesting enlisting in the Morstaybishlian Navy during the Auroran Imperial War. Mary Yune left him with their five year old child to Sani Bursil, but returned a year later. The two renewed their wedding vowels on New Years Day in 2000.

Verlhanz Rothgerus Jr had two children with his fiancé Rose Jhonacé, Lord Rothgerus and Prince Rothgerus in 1993 and 1996 respectively. Lord Rothgerus, with permission from her father Lambertus VII got engaged to Princess Rosamund in late 2012 but died in a freak car accident the following year. They had planned to marry in Syllester Abbey in late 2013.
