Zeb Garis (5/3/1980 - 26/10/1959) was a Pharonian politician and the first Prime Minister of the Free State of Columbia. Garis was born in Mandras,COL and his father was of Russian origin, born in Novorosisk, Russia. He studied Economics and Business at Mandras' Halton University. He acquired a PhD in Business Administration and became a professor at Halton. He joined the NDP party of Columbia in 1918 and became a MP in the Pharonian Parliament. In 1932, the National Democratic Party of Columbia, under his leadership followed the example of the Hinji and the Free State of Columbia was proclaimed, established in the Anglo-Columbian treaty. A plebiscite in Columbia ratified the treaty and the Dominion co-signed it with reservations that would make no practical difference. Garis became Columbia's Prime Minister and stayed in office until 1952.
