Edward Bienert

Edward Biernert is the Columbian Secretary of the Treasury during the events of Shadow of the Union and The Jackasses and a Barn.

Background
Edward Biernert was appointed Secretary of the Treasury by President Tyson Wisler in 2660. His appointment was the subject of controversy due to him being Nampan. Since the appointment, his existence in the Wisler Administration has been used as a propaganda point by the most extreme elements of the Columbian Conservation Party.

Shadow of the Union
Edward Biernert is mentioned in a speech by Jules Ricci in January 2666 as being one of the perpetrators behind Columbia's decline.
