'''Whiggus McDickus''' was a Kiravian Army officer who served during the Reactionary War against the [[Kiravian Union]]. He is best known for his disastrous defeat in the Battle of Ilánova, which ended in the loss of the island to the Kirosocialist Red Army. Many modern scholars believe that McDickus' defeat was a "monumental unforced error" and that the war could have gone quite differently for the anti-communist forces had McDickus been able to hold out on Ilánova for even two months longer. | |||
Upon his capture, McDickus was summarily executed in a potato field in County Kerfórn. | |||
