Early life

Dreichren Seidert Ermák was born in Tolongen on 19 March 1965, the second oldest child of Seidert Ermák and Slite Ermák. Ermák's father, Seidert, was a surgeon and his mother, Slite, was a prominent violinist for the Tolongen Symphony Orchestra. Dreichren had two siblings; his older sister, Havia, is a lawyer and his younger brother, Slekjem, is a writer for Progressive Magazine.

Both of Dreichren's parents were members of the National Progressive Party, who enrolled all three of their children in the Progressive Youth. Ermák was extroverted and hardworking in school. He was accepted into the University of Tolongen in 1983 with a full scholarship. He earned a bachelor's degree in public policy and graduated magna cum laude. In 1997, Ermák enlisted in the military as mandated by Terranilian law. He served in the army for four years (two more years than required), earning the rank of commandant. He joined the NPP while enlisted. In 1991, he left the army and attended the University of Guršaun, where he earned his master's degree in public policy.
