Lady Deborah, Baroness of Plymouth DH DFN is a Florenian politician and peeress currently serving as Lord President of the Council of State. She is the second daughter of Lord John, 1st Earl Fialko and an elder sister of Queen Jane of Florenia. On 2 January 2012, Eran named Deborah to the post of minister of education on advice of prime minister The Prince Nathan. She served in that position until her appointment as Lord President on 13 January 2022 following the commencement of the Resolution Plan.

Lady Deborah is the highest ranking woman in the Florenian government and was for a decade the only woman to serve in a government position. She also has the distinction of holding the last position in the line of succession to the Florenian throne; she is currently twenty-third in line.

Political career

Lady Deborah was named to the Cabinet in an Act of Parliament authored by Prince Nathan founding the Ministry of Education as an independent, and subsequently joined the Democratic Liberal Party in March 2013. During her tenure as Minister, the ministry has not had to directly enforce the Florenian education policy. By law, Florenian citizens must receive a high school level education, and, during her tenure, all Florenian citizens are doing or have done so.

Lady Deborah was elevated to the title of Baroness of Plymouth by an Act of Parliament given royal assent by Eran on 2 September 2013, due to her service to Florenia as Minister of Education and her sewing of Florenia's first physical flag. She was also made a Dame of the Florenian National Order and Dame of Honor, Florenia's highest chivalric honor.

Lord President

On 13 January 2022, Eran made his first appointments to the Council of State on the recommendation of The Prince Nathan. Due to her status an esteemed and beloved figure in Florenia as well as her lengthy ministerial tenure, she was named to chair the council as Lord President.
