Shuhei Hisagi

Shuhei Hisagi (檜佐木 修兵) is a Teikonian diplomat and National Party politician who is currently serving as the Minister for Internal and External Communications serving under the Premiership of Seijuro Akashi. He previously served as the Committee Chairperson of the Teiko Royal Council Committee on Foreign Affairs from 2010 to 2016.

Hisagi was born in Rakuzan where he spent most of his years. He attended the University of Kaijou and graduated Summa Cum Laude in Bachelor of International Relations in 1999. In 2006, he was elected to the Teiko Royal Council under the proportional block system representing Rakuzan-PR. His winning was a surprise to the council as he was listed at the 10th position where mostly likely a Democratic or Liberal representative would win. Since then, he has improved his electoral track record, ranking first in the 2009 national elections among other National candidates in the Rakuzan PR block.
