Mariano Indalecio y José-Figueroa Alcocer Fraga (30 April 1883 – 25 December 1949) was a Creeperian politician of the Second Parliamentary Era and a military leader of the National Council for Peace and Order during the Creeperian Civil War. He served as the Representative of Adolfosburg's 5th District from 1907 to 1912 and again from 1917 to 1932, and later served as the General-Secretary, or leader, of the Atheist Red Army from 1940 until his defeat in 1949.
Alcocer Fraga began his political career in 1887 when he joined the Creeperian Socialist Party (PSC) and attempted to run for office as a representative in the newly-established Parliament, however, his defeat, the party's failure to gain a single seat, and the overall political positions of the party, which he labelled as "moderate," led to his disillusion with the party, and in 1888, he joined the newly established Creeperian Social Communist Party (PCSC), a splinter of the Creeperian Socialist Party, which was founded by Mauricio Tasis Quesada. With the party, he continued to run for office, but continuously was defeated by candidates of both the Creeperian Socialist Party and the National Liberal Party (PLN).
In the 1907 general election, Alcocer Fraga won the election for Adolfosburg's 5th District and became a representative on 31 December 1907, only the second member of the Creeperian Social Communist Party to ever win a seat in a general election. In the 1912 general election, however, he lost his seat to Adolfo Mendoza Linares, a member of the National Conservative Party (PCN), during a controversial and most probably rigged election, which was rigged by the Creeperian Conservative Coalition in an effort to allow Antonio Sáenz Heredia win reelection. Alcocer Fraga eventually won reelection in the 1917 general election and remained in office until 1932, when he was defeated by Félix López Salinas of the National Liberal Party.
After the outbreak of the Creeperian Civil War on 2 January 1933, Alcocer Fraga pledged his allegiance to Miguel VII and the National Council for Peace and Order, otherwise known as the Miguelists. He did not serve in any important political positions during the beginning of the civil war due to him being blocked by Rolando Rubio Noboa, the General-Secretary of the Creeperian Social Communist Party. On 27 March 1936, Alcocer Fraga, with assistance of Cayetano Handel Carpio and the Atheist Red Army, and with the support of Miguel VII, overthrew and killed Rubio Noboa in a coup d'état, as high-ranking National Council officials believed that Rubio Noboa had been growing more and more moderate as the war continued. He was replaced by Alcocer Fraga as General-Secretary, and he held the position for the remainder of the civil war. In 1940, with the death of Handel Carpio in the Battle of San Romero, Alcocer Fraga also assumed the position of General-Secretary of the Atheist Red Army. He commanded the paramilitary during several battles of the civil war, including the Siege of San Salvador.
Alcocer Fraga was captured on 30 September 1949, along with several other high-ranking National Council leaders, by the Catholic Imperial Restoration Council, otherwise known as the Romerists, following the Miguelist defeat at the Battle of the Zapatista River. He was one of the four men put on trial during the San Salvador Trials and was found guilty by the Creeperian National Military Tribunal on seven charged brought before him. He was sentenced to death on 24 December 1949, and the following day, 25 December 1949, Alcocer Fraga, and his three fellow defendants, were publicly crucified and burned alive.
Alcocer Fraga is considered to be one of the most influential and important Creeperian communist leaders of the Second Parliamentary Era and the Creeperian Civil War, helping evolve and form the far-left ideology of Miguelism. He has been considered to be a martyr figure by various subsequent Miguelist and communist groups in Creeperopolis and abroad, such as the National Democratic Organization (ORDEN), the Revolutionary Restoration Movement (MRR), and the Rakeoian Miguelists League (RML). In Creeperopolis today, he is condemned and labelled as a war criminal and one of the chief organizers of the De-Catholization, a genocide which killed up to 12.6 million people between 1933 and 1949.

- ↑ The Constitution of 1949, which was mostly copied from the Constitution of 1833, was referenced as the constitution violated by Alcocer Fraga, despite being physically unable to have violated anything in the Constitution as it had not yet been adopted by the time he was charged with violating the constitution.
