Tiiu Korjus (born 11 April 1977) is an Avengisian architect and politician, as well as the current Head of the Avengisian Council. Korjus' political career began with her entry into the 2008 Avengisian general elections in a bid to represent her home region of Nyx on the Council of Avengis, running as an independent. Korjus would join the Agrarian Progressivists Party in 2010, which she remains a member of today.
Early Life
Korjus was born in Careon on 11 April 1977 to Illar Korjus and Aasa Korjus (Pihlak). She is the third child in a Christian family, having two older brothers, Ivari and Juri, and a younger brother, Rasmus. She grew up in a small household on the western shoreline of Careon, which her father worked near as a fisherman. She has been described as a fairly tame and unspoken child, and Korjus herself stated that it was out of fear that she would accidentally say the wrong thing and upset someone.
Education
Korjus stayed in the public schooling system in Careon from pre-primary school to her graduation from Vene Secondary School. Following her graduation, Korjus opted to take a sabbatical year, traveling across multiple countries in Ecros and Ostlandet to study their architecture before applying to multiple universities, which ended up with her attendance at the Andronikos University of the Arts, where she would graduate in 1990 with a bachelor's degree.
