Minister of Finance Patrick O'Shea

Patrick O'Shea was Minister of Finance in the Cabinet of Governor-General Ezra Gallivan. At a Cabinet meeting in 1890 Gallivan told O'Shea, "If I could have one wish, it would be that the C.N.A. could be severed from this earth and put into orbit, somewhere near the moon. There is nothing we need from other nations. We export grain, manufactured goods, and other items they need badly, and in return we import trouble. Let Hermión have the world, if only he allows us our own land." O'Shea may also have served as Minister for Foreign Affairs, based on a biography of him by a family member, A Diplomat in the Family.
