Henry Cassian (Commonspeak Spelling: Henrë Caßian) is an Aerlan politician who serves as the first President of Aerla. Born in Syrenea, a suburb of Noursala. Obtained a Doctorate in Law from the University of Noursala. Much of Cassian's early political career stems from his time as a judge in Noursala, where he worked to expand the legal system within the once near-lawless society of the city. Upon the formation of Aerla, he was selected by members of the National Assembly to become the first President of the nation.
Upon becoming President, he began several programs to modernize the nation. He decreed the construction of factories and roads throughout the nation, and sponsored the military to better secure nation from bandits and tribal incursions. He formed a pseudo-personality cult among many Reformist Bloc politicians known as the "Cassianites". He is seen as the face of Aerla by many within the nation.
Retirement
The killing blow to Cassian's political career was his involvement in the Public Relief Board v. Massy et al. court case. Due to his choice to defend Robert Massy, the worst offender of the financial crimes that were perpetrated by those on his staff, led to Cassian's public image being ruined. Many smear campaigns were run on both local and national television painting Cassian as a "apologist for corruption" and as guilty of the same crimes brought up against Massy.
Facing growing pressure from this, along with calls from those in the National Assembly, Cassian announced he would step down as President. He stated that elections would be called within 3 months.
