The position of "Hoyenah" is one held by the leader of the North Sea Republic. The community pronounces it how it is spelled, (Hoy-en-ah).
What is a "Hoyenah" ?
The word "Hoyenah" (also spelled hoyaneh in the real world) comes from a position from within the IRL Iroquois government, specifically being a representative of one of the 6 tribes of the Iroquois, AKA the Haudenosaunee.
The title was used by Dayzle first back on May 6th, 2017 on EMC Classic as simply a title one could have shown before one's name. This was in part because Dayzle was creating a Native American themed town, and at the time was a town leader speaking on behalf of his people. Once Dayzle became leader of the nation as a whole on July 26th, 2017, the title became the go to name for identify the leader of what was then Canada, as Dayzle did not change it. It was unique to the community and was more fun than simply, "Prime minister" or "leader." Another aspect that made it stick was that the word "Canada" is also from the Iroquois people (meaning village), so it only seemed fitting that the leader of the nation's title was also from the Iroquois.
During the first monthly election of the republic back in September of 2017, the title of Hoyenah was decided to be passed on with the leadership role, permanently associating the word with the leader of the republic.
A Hoyenah has been elected by the community every month since September 2017.

Notable Hoyenahs
All the Hoyenahs that have served the republic have shaped the republic and left an impact. This list is meant to highlight the Hoyenahs that have left an extreme impact on the trajectory of the republic.
Dayzle (June, July, and August 2017)
Under Dayzle's leadership the community was revolutionized from a small community in the Maritime provinces of Canada to a powerhouse of a community that spanned all the provinces of Canada. Dayzle's leadership brought forth the giving economy, an economic system still used to this day where establish players give resources to new people to allow them to grow and prosper. None of Dayzle's contributions shine as bright as instituting the republic that has lasted since being established.
YodaBest (October, November, and December 2018)
YodaBest would be a strong and stable leader navigating the first time the republic had to deal with a change in servers. Under YodaBest's leadership the republic was able to adapt to the changes on Terra Nova, like the addition of nation ranges, which were not seen on EarthMC Classic. YodaBest was the leader of the first meganation ever existing on Terra Nova and established a foreign relation policy that the republic would use for years later, which is simply ignoring the people who want to fight.
Pengwen828 (October, November, December 2020, January, and February 2021)
Pengwen828 would take the reigns of the republic during a fragile time. The republic just moved to a server that turned out to not be the beacon the previous government hoped. Pengwen828 would provide the stability needed to persevere through the tough times and provided one of the most stable voter periods of her time. Pengwen828 would be a strong leader in the face of conflict of the server and helped fend off against unruly enemies.
