Political career

Early political career (99,494-99,500 CE)

After graduating from university, Soteris ran for the position of Councilwoman of Cors Tairane in 99,494 CE. The election was held under the first past the post system. Soteris won the election with 53% of the vote. She was sworn in as councilor on 99,495 CE.

In this position, she was responsible for representing the mayor in his absence.

Soteris's term as councilor ended in 99,498 CE. She did not run for re-election, as she instead ran for the position of City Magistrate of Cors Tairane. The election was held under the single transferable vote system. Soteris won the election with 58% of the vote after three rounds of voting. She took office on 99,499 CE and served a two year term before being replaced by her successor. During her tenure as magistrate, Soteris gained a reputation as an effective leader and competent administrator. Under her leadership, Cors Tairane experienced significant economic growth and social development. Her popularity increased significantly during her time in office, which laid the foundations for her future political career.

Regional politics

After graduating from university, Soteris ran for the position of Councilwoman of Cors Tairane in the 99,494 CE local elections. She was successful and served two year terms as councilor before being elected City Magistrate of Cors Tairane in 99,499 CE. During her tenure as City Magistrate, Soteris gained a reputation as an effective leader and competent administrator. She was responsible for the construction of several public infrastructure projects within Cors Tairane. These projects included a new spaceport, an orbital elevator, and an hypertransit network extension, further connecting Cors Tairane to other major metropolitan areas on Arathel and Maeradina.

In 99,500 CE, Soteris ran for election as the DLG's party leader after incumbent party leader Simos Adam Leandon stepped down due to health reasons. She won the leadership election with sixty percent of the vote. Under her leadership, the DLG saw an increase in support from voters across Tairane Federation. In the following year's presidential election, she ran against incumbent Ivos Carile of the National Unity Party (NUP). The faction is based on Mocryon, a major Tairane Federation world located within the Federal Core Systems, and had been in power for fifty years at that point, and were seen by many as corrupt, sybaritic, and out-of-touch with average Tairane citizens. The NUP ran on a platform of languid promises change and reform, promising to reduce federal corruption and overspending deficits if they were elected into office. Soteris predictably won the election with an overwhelming seventy percent of the vote; she became both the first woman and the youngest to be ever elected president in all of Tairane history, and also the first Iolerian president in seventy years.

President of Tairane Federation

Soteris was inaugurated as the 103rd President of Tairane Federation on 99,502 CE. In her inauguration speech, Soteris thanks her supporters, and promised to work towards a more better future, as well as to increase Tairane Federation's involvement in intersytem and galactic affairs. She also pledged to reduce corruption and increase economic development. The speech transcript as it follows:

" In a place that was once her home, a young woman who had fought through the ranks to earn the most venerable service of the nation, President of the Tairane Federation, stood in front of millions of people and took her first steps into her new office. Our vision and passion had carried her through multiple campaigns and debates. On this day, surrounded by the people she loved, she stood before those assembled and those who watched her and told them about the future she would build for them. As my eyes fell on each familiar face, I hoped that they would see in her their own hopes and dreams realized, their own progress accomplished. And in turn, they hoped to see in her their own dreams realized as well. This woman was not a stranger to anyone there; they knew her strength and how hard she fought for them. She had spoken their names many times over the past year, directly into the chamber, with a tone of strength and determination. She had channeled the very thing they wanted to hear at that moment and gave it voice so they could feel heard. Her words were their words, and her smiles were their smiles. We are a Federation of millions of star systems, and we are entering a new era of shifting galactic tides, fueled by new rapid technological advancements, and the desperate need to find and establish new life past horizons. We must combine with the galactic community and work with them to further our never-ending thirst for knowledge, and make us a better people. This nation has been stagnant in our former cerebrations for too long, stuck in the past, afraid to chart new courses. Avarice have led to the downfall of many great civilizations, but we will not let it happen here. We must rise above that, and become a new society, one who regards all intelligent life with esteem and jousts for peace between our people. Our nation must change. We must face towards the forthcoming of future, towards the countless stars and further beyond. " President Ilera Soteris, 99,502 CE

She has made several state visits to Frontier systems, and has hosted a number of foreign dignitaries at the Presidential Palace in Ioleria Prime. Soteris has also sought to increase Tairane Federation's involvement in intersystem affairs. In 99,505 CE she attended the centennial meeting of the Federation Council, where she gave a speech calling for increased cooperation between star systems. The speech was well-received by other delegates, and helped raise awareness of Tairane issues among the wider galactic community.

Soteris' handling of national affairs has been mixed. She has been criticized by some for her handling of the economy, which entered into recession shortly after she took office. However, others have praised her for her efforts in reducing corruption and increasing transparency within the government. Her popularity remains high; a recent poll showed that eighty percent of respondents approved of her performance her administration.

Soteris has also implemented a number of domestic reforms. She has increased funding for national education, and has also worked to increase the availability of universal healthcare.
