Ahmad Abbasi

Ahmad Abbasi (born: 11 June, 4277) is an Aldegarian Yazdean priest and revolutionary who worked to overthrow the Shahdom in favor of the current theocratic republic in the Aldegarian (or Yazdean) Revolution. He now serves as its first Moabadan-Moabad (Priest of Priests).

Early Life and Education
Abbasi was born to a very poor, rural family suffering greatly during his childhood from a lack of public healthcare and education, which plagued much of Aldegar. He was educated in a private religious school, which his parents spent heavily to get him into. At the age of 17, he made the decision to become a member of the priesthood.

Political Activism and HMBI
Abbasi worked with many others to found the Hezb Mujāhid Barzgar Ittiḥād in 4325, citing a wish to provide care to the "forgotten ones of Aldegar." He criticized the governments refusal to spend oil surpluses, and attracted support from rural voters who wished to gain access to public welfare and other institutions. His party quickly gained control of the legislature, and began a the Aldegarian Revolution against the Shahdom, instituting a theocratic republic led by Abbasi himself. The government immediately moved to institute socialist and religious principles throughout the nation. Abbasi is highly popular within his nation.
