Anthony Vause

Sir Anthony Vause (b.85-d.163) was the fourth president of South Galour from years 122 to 132, and ambassador to North Galour from years 132 to 160. He was a Saradominist monk working for the Monastery of South Galour before becoming leader of the Saradominist National Party (SNP) in 120.

Early life
Vause was born in South Quentin in year 85, where he was educated at the Monastery of South Galour. He became a devout Saradominist and travelled to several kingdoms to educate different races on the ways of Saradomin and peace. Following a pilgrimage to Entrana, Vause claimed that he had become "enlightened," and was thus selected as leader of the Saradominist National Party.

As president
Although he was successfully elected in year 122 as president, Vause's popularity immediately fell. He was seen as too conservative and as a Saradominist extremeist, as a contrast to the liberal Saradominism which modern South Galour had become. Vause would not allow the use of the army to quell North Galourian raids and embarked on a "passive resistance" policy. in year 130, which lost the country a large amount of money. He was defeated by Theodore Nero who won a landmark victory in the 132 elections.

As Ambassador
Nero appointed Vause as ambassador to North Galour in 132, but was withdrawn in 160 when Nero abolished all formal relations with North Galour. As ambassador, Vause made several visits around North Galour, attempting to convert citizens into Saradominists. He failed to convince the North Galourian leader to bring back the exiled Church of Saradomin.

Final years and death
Vause went back to the Monastery of South Galour after he was sacked as ambassador and became a leader of a group of desciples, whom he taught the ways of Saradomin. He also became a teacher of several children from fundementalist Saradominist families. During the last three years of his life, Vause made several trips to Entrana as pilgrimage and also for treatment. On his last trip, Vause suffered a stroke and was buried in Entrana following his death only days after, in accordance to his wishes.
