Nise ke Tasanuri

Nise ke Tasanuri, Alinan ta Harusa (June 8, 1429 - November 15, 1493) is a Risevan politician who served as the Naruganize of the kingdom of Masal from 1471 to 1477, and as the Matganize of the unified Kingdom of Risevne from 1477 to his death. Widely regarded as one of the greatest statesmen and administrators in Risevan history, his efforts helped secure the unity of the Kingdom, and to a large extent kept it unified against the later pressures from disaffected former rulers; at the same time he advocated unification with the neighbouring island of Agalmare, his efforts setting the foundation for the eventual union to be signed just five years after his death in 1498.

Personal and Family Life

Tasanuri is known to have married twice; the first marriage was in 1451, to a woman of the Imigul family, while the second was to Tilun ke Noman uli Tasanuri, daughter of famed Masalan general Hedete ke Noman, in 1465.

Legacy and Impact

Presently there are many memorials to Tasanuri's name; many cities across Risevne have a "Tasanuri Road" or a "Nise Road", the most famous ones being the Tasanuri Boulevard, Bresnga, which stretches through the commercial centre of Bresnga and is one of its busiest and best known roads, as well as Tasanuri Boulevard, Isana, which runs from the East Bay southwards to the Belegras Dockyards and has undergone extensive renovation with the renovation of the Docks. In Isana the Matafengar Memorial Park also has two statues of him, one along the memorial avenue where he stands on the right of King Sarus I, and another on the field of the gathering itself, where he is shown leaning towards the King as if to advise him.
