Kaska Västmann

Kaska Västmann (born January 1, 1978) is a Westlandic statesman, lawyer and politician who's the current acting Vice Chancellor of Westland since 2012. Born in 1978, Kaska grew up in the city of Vikunӧ, Vikunӧ Prefecture to a middle class family with extensive military and political backgrounds. His mother was a member of the city council during his teenage years and his father served as a senior officer in the Fӧlksmilitari. He spent much of his youth living a very politically active life and joined the Young Socialists in 1992. In 1998, he joined the military and took part in the Mission to Somalia to help restore the socialist government back into power after Islamic militants seized control of Mogadishu in a violent coup. He continued service in the military until he was discharged in 2002 and entered into law school where he eventually became a lawyer.

As a lawyer, he represented those within the middle class and fought for them in the justice system and said that his personal mission was to preserve middle class representation in the justice system. Kaska was eventually elected Speaker of the National Assembly and played a major role in shaping Westland's political structure and scene throughout the late 2000s. He biggest challenge occurred during the 2008 recession where he was accused of acting Stalinist due to his efforts to apply pressure onto certain Westlandic politicians accused of capitalist tendencies to have them resign in a "purge" according to his critics.

During the 2012 general election for the Chancellorship, Kaska appealed to Oska Stärk who was running for the office of the Chancellorship that same year. He managed to get appointed as Oska's nominee for Vice Chancellor and after Oska won the election and became the Chancellor of Westland, Kaska became Vice Chancellor after being approved by the National Assembly. As Vice Chancellor, Kaska has worked hard to preserve Westlandic society and retain the influence of Strassonism as well as increase the spread of socialism internationally though increased activity within the International Order of Socialist States.
