'''Linge Chen''' was a [[Daxia]]n politician and Chancellor of the Republic. Nicknamed ''''the Sun that never sets'''', he is considered the father of modern [[Daxia]]. He founded the [[Party of Daxian Democrats]] and led it from humble beginnings to the seizure of total power in the federal election of 1992. Widely reviled internationally as a fickle and merciless dictator, Linge Chen transformed his country from an insecure middle power mired in internal dissent into a Great Power willing to commit the most heinous atrocities in pursuit of national power and geopolitical relevance. Like a mad sculptor, he chiseled and smashed away everything he hated in Daxian society through the use of the organs of terror he fostered and refined. Today he is revered as the father of the nation and the man who set [[Daxia]] on the path to its final destiny. | |||
