The Right Honorable Minerva Irene Bakirdzis Karamanlis, Viscountess Kairis (born 21 November 1957) is the current President of the Commonwealth Commission and a former Prime Minister of the Resurgent Dream. She led the Liberal Party between its formation in the wake of the Shattering and its merger with other left of center parties to form the Progressive Democratic Party. Prior to that, she was a Modernist Member of Parliament for Bilbtoria, representing District 1 since 1998.
Currently, Karamanlis leads a coalition Government comprising her own Liberal Party as well as the Labor Party and the Patriot Party. This coaltion is very broad and has a correspondingly narrow platform of legislative unity. Correspondingly, the outcome of many bills in Parliament is uncertain until the actual vote while only a few basic measures can count on a united vote of the governing parties. Karamanlis was able to build such a broad coalition on the basis of opposition to the Nationalist Party, then under the leadership of the demagogic Thomas Baxter, whose plurality in Parliament all the other party leaders considered a threat to Danaan liberal democratic principles. With the Nationalists now under the leadership of the more moderate Henri Calvin, it seems likely that Karamanlis will need a Liberal plurality to continue in Government past the next election.
Karamanlis has become known for her liberal foreign policy, supporting such measures as the reconstruction and reform of Marlund, a formerly totalitarian state totally defeated by Danaan forces after Marlund sponsored terrorists attacked the Resurgent Dream in the largest strike ever on Danaan soil, killing 37,000 thousand people in a massive bombing of Armonvale Harbor via natural gas tanker. She is also the architect of the sixteen point plan being pushed by Danaan diplomats at the North Atlantic Conference, one providing for comprehensive multilateral integration in the region.
Karamanlis is the first woman without a noble title to hold the office of Prime Minister of the Resurgent Dream. Her immediate predescessor, Vincenzo Lacau, was the first person without a title of either sex to hold the office, though he has since been created a baron as a reward for his service in office. His predecessor, Lady Juliet ni Gwydion, was the first woman.
