'''Middle Secundomia''' is the oldest city in the [[Federation of Secundomian Socialist Republics]]. The city serves as the capital of the [[Middle Secundomia|Middle Secundomia district]] and the [[Socialist Republic of Secundomia|SR Secundomia]]. <br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
===Pre-History===<br />
Middle Secundomia is located on land in eastern [[w:Kansas|Kansas]], the United States of America. In the early 2000s, a portion of this land was purchased by the family of [[Parker I]] and [[Spencer I]]. Already on the land was a 2 story split level home built in the 1970s and a wooden fort with a rainbow tarp covering of unknown origin as well as several trees. South of the home is a road leading to a nearby vacant lot which contained several trees and a fence. Circa 2008 the family erected a large brick wall, a swingset, basketball court and sandbox in the backyard. <br />
<br />
===First Kingdom Era===<br />
<br />
Middle Secundomia was founded as Secundomia City on December 15, 2009 alongside the creation of the [[Kingdom of Secundomia]]. Due to the Kingdom's small size, the city was the only constituent part of the country and consisted only of a backyard. The largest building in the city was Fort Secundomia located in the geographical center. Fort Secundomia had an attached sandbox built several years prior to Secundomia's foundation. The fort had lost its roof and by 2009 had exhibited significant rot. A large wooden swingset also built several years earlier was located on the western side of the city. A small basketball court was located on the southern side of the city as well as a sidewalk providing access to the Green House which would later become Secundomia's capitol building. <br />
<br />
===First Republic Era===<br />
<br />
After the founding of the [[Republic of Secundomia]], it became the ''de facto'' capital of the young country. In late 2009, it became the ''de jure'' capital of Secundomia and the newly christened state of [[Middle Secundomia]]. Parker and Spencer founded Middle Secundomia City consisting of the Green House as a capitol building for the young nation. The city immediately annexed the yard around the home including the area previously known as Secundomia City. <br />
<br />
In 2010, the State of Middle Secundomia expanded to include regions outside of the city. The city then became a major hub for the country economically, culturally and politically. Presidents Parker I and Spencer I conducted most of the official business of the country from the city, and the north side of the city was also critical to the foreign affairs of the country. Even when out of power, Parker was entrusted by Luke and Spencer to conduct foreign affairs for Secundomia which was exclusively done from an office in the Green House. Middle Secundomia City played host to the opening ceremonies of the [[2010 Micronational Olympics]] including a torch relay. [[Secundomian Media]] also had their headquarters in an office in Middle Secundomia City. <br />
<br />
In 2011, the state of Middle Secundomia was officially expanded to include a much larger area in order to border both Lower Secundomia and Merreneitoja. With this expansion, the city of Middle Secundomia was expanded to include the territory of the larger city. Although Secundomia broadly declined in activity in 2011 and 2012, the city remained relatively bustling compared to the outer reaches of the nation. Although [[Secundomian Agency for Air and Space Exploration|SAASE]] conducted launches in more rural areas of Secundomia, rockets were constructed and researched in the city prior to launch. In 2011 Fort Secundomia was demolished due to significant decay threatening the safety of the Secundomian Military. The swingset and basketball courts were also eventually demolished and a firepit was built in the backyard.<br />
<br />
===Later Years===<br />
<br />
With the rise of the [[Eran Federation]], Middle Secundomia retained importance as a major base of communication between [[Eranian Secundomia|Secundomia]] and the broader federation government. Parker I was elected prime minister of the nation and continued to reside in Middle Secundomia during his tenure. In 2015 Middle Secundomia entered some turmoil during the bloodless coup that created the [[Third Kingdom of Secundomia]], but the city began to lose political relevance after the [[Democratic Republic of Secundomia|DRS leadership]] moved the capital to [[Eastern Secundomia]]. Middle Secundomia retained relevance as a political and economic center in the FSSR, continuing to host sporting events such as Sandbox Soccer and was often used as a summer home for leader Parker I until 2017. While the Secundomian capital has bounced between several places in Eastern Secundomia, Middle Secundomia has consistenly remained under Secundomian leadership. <br />
<br />
In 2020 and 2021 Middle Secundomia has undergone significant renovation both to the Green House and the backyard. A large fence was built to increase privacy within the city and the old basketball courts have been converted into a major event space. The sandbox was also demolished as part of this renovation which put an end to the Secundomian tradition of Sandbox Soccer. After the loss of Gravois, some in Secundomia have expressed concern over rumors that Middle Secundomia will soon leave the hands of the government but Chairman Parker I has dismissed these rumors. Pemrenant population of the city has declined by almost 50% since its foundation, but it remains a popular vacation destination swelling in numbers around holidays.<br />
<br />
==Government==<br />
Middle Secundomia has not had an independent government throughout much of its history. It was administered by the State of Middle Secundomia during the [[Republic of Secundomia]]. Since the establishment of the FSSR, the city is administered directly by the leadership of the [[Maoist-Worker's Party of Secundomia|Maoist-Worker's Party]]. <br />
<br />
==Climate & Geography==<br />
<br />
The city is located in the Secundomian River Valley in the center of the Middle Secundomia district. The Middle Secundomian Highway system runs through the country, offering connection between the city and neighboring [[Socialist Republic of Tergumterra|SR Tergumterra]]. The Backwoods Fort, a military installation for the FSSR exists in the south of the city and was established in the days of the [[Republic of Secundomia|first republic]]. Located to the north of the fort is the Pine and Snow Hill park, named for former counties in the state of Middle Secundomia. <br />
<br />
===Neighborhoods===<br />
<br />
Middle Secundomia City is broken up into two neighborhoods located to the north and south of the Middle Secundomian Highway. The Green House neighborhood is located in the north and makes up the vast majority of the cities population. This neighborhood is highly developed and features most of the city's infrastructure investments. To the southwest, the Pine and Snow Hill neighborhood is much less developed and is mainly used by the FSSR military and sports teams playing in the park.<br />
<br />
===Climate===<br />
<br />
Middle Secundomia has a humid subtropical or humid continental climate, experiencing hot, muggy summers and cold winters. Due to its location in Tornado Alley, it is under threat from extreme weather especially in the spring. Most extreme weather events experienced by the city include flooding of the south and western portions of the city, which lie much lower than the densely populated areas to the north and east.<br />
<br />
==Demographics==<br />
<br />
Middle Secundomia City contains 3 permanent residents. Only one current resident is a registered Secundomian citizen who has rarely participated in Secundomian politics. At its peak, Middle Secundomia had a population of 5 residents and 3 citizens, including [[Parker I]] and [[Spencer I]]. The population of the city is mostly caucasian with a small Native American minority. Religion is rarely practiced in the city, but some citizens identify as religious, attending Christian churches outside of town. <br />
<br />
==Arts and Culture==<br />
<br />
Middle Secundomia is known as a cultural capital of the FSSR. Citizens often travel to the city to observe sporting events and artistic exhibitions. Throughout the history of the city, Middle Secundomia has been an extremely active cultural site. The former capital building, the Green House is now home to a school and renowned restaurants that attract tourism to the city. Residents are known for producing visual arts including paintings and drawings, with a large uptick in the arts scene noted in 2020.<br />
<br />
===Music===<br />
<br />
Middle Secundomia is also the musical center of the nation, with the largest population of active musicians living in the city. Residents were known for playing classical and rock music using the piano, guitar, violin and trumpet. In recent years, classical music has become more dominant in the city with most concerts revolving around violin recitals.<br />
<br />
===Sports===<br />
[[File:racecar.jpg|thumb|Secundomia Racing International's M1 team was moved to Middle Secundomia City in 2020.]]<br />
<br />
The city has two major areas for sport, soccer fields in the north where the FSSR national sport of [[Sandbox Soccer]] was invented and American football fields in the south. While sports, including tennis and soccer, are still actively played in and around the city, organized sports teams have largely died out after the city declined in population. Racing has remained popular in the city and although [[Secundomian Racing International]] was based in [[Castle City]], the first racing track in Secundomia was officially constructed in Middle Secundomia City in 2020. <br />

==Education==<br />
The Secundomian School was based in the Green House capitol building. The Secundomian School was the flagship school of the Secundomian educational system, a decentralized schooling system spread throughout the country. [[Parker I]] was one of the school's pupils, graduating in 2011. After early 2011, the school was phased out and most residents began to attend American educational institutions outside of the city. <br />

<br />
'''Spencer I''' is a retired micronationalist who helped found the [[Republic of Secundomia]]. Alongside his brother [[Parker I]] he helped draft the original [[Secundomian Constitution|constitution]] of Secundomia. He was co-consul of Secundomia at its inception and was elected president of Secundomia multiple times as a member of the [[Secundomian Conservative Party]]. Prior to Secundomia, he was founder and president of the [[Republic of Skillz]]. He founded the [[Secundomian Libertarian Party]] and was [[Sterling Monarchy|Prince]] of [[Kingdom of Sterling|Sterling]] in 2010. After the rise of the [[Eran Federation]], Spencer stepped away from Secundomia and micronationalism in general. <br />
<br />
==Personal life==<br />
Spencer is the younger brother of fellow micronationalist Parker I. They were both homeschooled together through most of their early lives, but Spencer decided to pursue a public school education in 2009. The used this divided attention to great effect in Secundomia. While Parker was able to run most of the day-to-day operations using his extra time on the internet, Spencer was able to use his connections at school to create brick-and-mortar activity. <br />
<br />
==Micronational life==<br />
===Republic of Skillz===<br />
<br />
[[File:Skillzflag.png|thumb|Flag of the [[Republic of Skillz]]]]<br />
<br />
Spencer found interest in micronationalism in December 2009 after reading Wikipedia articles about [[Molossia]], the [[Aerican Empire]] and [[Sealand]] with his brother [[Parker I]]. The two brothers resolved to create a nation. On December 14, 2009, Spencer founded the Republic of Skillz with his friends at school. The full list of citizens is lost to time but [[Phineas Snow]] and [[Nate I]] were among them. The citizens elected Spencer president and he returned home to tell Parker of the nation. <br />
<br />
Skillz was unstable and collapsed the next day after Snow and other citizens left the nation. This coincided with the foundation of the [[Kingdom of Secundomia]] by Parker I, who had immediately declared war on Skillz. Nate remained as vice president but he and Spencer found the nation untenable long term. Spencer decided to merge the remnants with Parker's Kingdom and form a new, unnamed Micronation Republic.<br />
<br />
===Recruitment===<br />
<br />
Spencer recruited many [[Secundomia]]ns to the young micronation from his grade at school. These Secundomians include the [[Nate I]], artist and cultural leader, designer of the Secundomian flag, [[Phineas Snow]], chief Architect, and controversial Protest Group leaders [[Rahim I]] and [[Ibrahim I]]. Outside of Ibrahim, few of Spencer's recruits had large political ambitions but were extremely active as artists, entrepreneurs and military personnel. They often voted as a block in favor of Spencer in presidential elections which meant that catering to the needs of this segment of Secundomian society was critical to political success. <br />
<br />
Spencer became somewhat of a kingmaker in Secundomian politics. [[Luke of Secundomia|Luke]] derided the influence of this voting block claiming it was impossible for him to garner political support due to the high voter of Spencer's friends compared to the rest of the country. After the [[Cabinet Crisis]] and the departure of Rahim from the nation this block began to lose significant power. Nate became less active while Phineas was preoccupied with military duties and cautious about politics. Ibrahim began to run in elections himself which further split Spencer's base. Spencer was largely unable to gain political power again in Secundomia.<br />
<br />
===Elections and Administrations===<br />
====Consulate (December 2009)====<br />
Spencer I, along with [[Parker I]], named themselves interim "co-consuls" until a formal election could be scheduled. In this time, Spencer was involved in the drafting of the Secundomian constitution, first on paper and then transcribed into email by Parker. Spencer was a highly active figure in the brick-and-mortar operations of Secundomia but was less active on email threads. <br />
<br />
Spencer announced his candidacy to run for re-election in the [[December 2009 Secundomian elections]]. He was unable to garner support on the email chains where the election was conducted and ran a quiet campaign. In contrast, Luke of Secundomia and Parker I engaged in significant mudslinging about the election and began to draw the ire among the citizenry of Secundomia. Luke also campaigned heavily against Spencer and accused him of being inactive. The preliminary phases of the election saw Spencer eliminated from contention and reduced the field to Parker and Luke.<br />
<br />
Spencer played a major role in the resolution of the December campaign. Despite being out of the running, he met with co-consul Parker I and they resolved to a system of co-presidents which would enable Parker and Luke to both take power. Spencer was initially somewhat resistant and proposed that this new system be subject to a public referendum rather than consulate fiat. After the public referendum was released and received significant support, Spencer retroactively approved the amendment to the constitution and approved the change, resulting in the co-presidency of Luke and Parker. <br />
<br />
====Co-President (February 2010)====<br />
Spencer again announced his candidacy for President in the [[January 2010 Secundomian elections|January 2010 elections]]. Incumbent co-president Parker announced a joint-ticket candidacy with Spencer attempting to realign from Luke and increase support from Spencer's voting block. This strategy was successful and both were elected to the office of co-president. Luke derided Spencer's influence and refused to accept the result for some time. <br />
<br />
[[File:Scp.png|thumb|left|Spencer was a founding member of the Secundomian Conservative Party]]<br />
<br />
As co-president Spencer I joined the [[Secundomian Conservative Party]] forming a united administration under the SCP. The administration presided over a period of internal quiet. Spencer also became Prince of Sterling at this time. While Parker focused on international affairs, Spencer was mainly in charge of the internal running of Secundomia at the time. This division of power was agreeable to both brothers and resulted in a welcome stability in comparison to the earlier strife.<br />
<br />
Spencer became an extremely popular figure during the co-presidential administration. Even among Luke's supporters Spencer began to gain popularity. The administration approved a shift to a single president for the next election cycle and Spencer became an early frontrunner. The Conservative Party primary resulted in a tie between both co-presidents and thus both carried the Conservative line in the general. Against Parker and the independent candidacy of Ibrahim, Spencer achieved a landslide victory carried by speeches and mailers that outcompeted his opponents. <br />
<br />
Prior to his inauguration, he presided over a short period in Secundomia known as the Golden Days. Multiple states were formed and Secundomia's first official flag was approved. This period increased public anticipation for Spencer's administration, seen by many as a continuation of this successful period.<br />
<br />
====Presidency (March 2010)====<br />
Spencer became the first Secundomian president with full powers on March 1, 2010. He governed with an even hand and devolved much of his power to others, appointing the first cabinet in Secundomian history. Although he was head of state in Secundomia, most foreign affairs were devolved to Parker and Spencer focused mainly on the internal governance of the republic. He further signed a law creating the [[Secundomian Congress]] and conducted Operation Annex which increased the size of the capital of [[Middle Secundomia]]. <br />
<br />
Under the Secundomian Constitution, Spencer was automatically nominated for reelection in the [[Secundomian presidential election, March 2010|March elections]]. Despite his popularity, Spencer decided to run a quiet campaign and focus on his bid for Citizen's Council. He declined to seek the nomination for the Conservative Party and run on the independent Presidential Ticket. For the first time, party lines became important in a crowded general election. Spencer and [[Secundomian Liberal Party|Liberal Party]] candidate [[Seth I]] each received a small portion of votes while Conservative candidates Parker and Luke received 75% of the total share. Parker was elected president, and Spencer accepted defeat. However, he was elected on the Conservative line to the Citizen's Council and took office as a council member on April 1. <br />
<br />
====Councillor (April–May 2010)====<br />
Spencer joined the Citizen's Council of the Secundomian Congress in April 2010. Any actions by the council were put on hold by the [[Cabinet Crisis]]. Spencer played a small, but significant role in the crisis. Alongside much of Secundomia, Spencer was an early supporter of Rahim and Ibrahim's right to speak out against the Parker I administration. He even affirmed many of the complaints and aligned with the Protest Group. As a juror in the Trial of Ibrahim I, Spencer ruled in favor of Ibrahim and helped contribute to the early end of the trial. <br />
<br />
After the trial, Spencer began to realign with Parker I. Spencer agreed that Ibrahim and Rahim crossed a line with their harassment of the [[Empress of Atlan]]. As a councilor spencer cast a deciding vote to exile [[Rahim I]] from the country and issue a warning to Ibrahim. This action resulted in the apologies from the leaders of the Protest Group and the end of the Cabinet Crisis. <br />
<br />
Spencer announced his candidacy for re-election to the Citizen's Council in May 2010 alongside a parallel bid to return to the office of the presidency. Spencer won the Conservative Party nominations, defeating challenger Ibrahim I in the process. Ibrahim decided to run on an independent ticket and Parker ran on the automatically nominated Presidential ticket. In a shocking move, Spencer dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed Ibrahim in late may. He mistakenly believed that this would ensure Ibrahim's presidency not realizing that Parker was also running. This move did put wind in the sails of the Ibrahim I campaign, however, resulting in an unresolved tie. Spencer won re-election to the Citizen's council in the same election.<br />
<br />
====Interim Presidency (June 2010)====<br />
Due to the unresolved tie at the end of President Parker I's two-month term, Spencer was agreed by Ibrahim and Parker to oversee an interim period until a runoff election could be held. Spencer thus returned to the office of the president in Secundomia on June 1, 2010. After several runoff attempts, a final vote was certified by the Secundomian government and Parker I became president on June 8, ending the shortest term of any Secundomian president. As a result of this outcome, Parker had to refuse his seat on the Citizen's Council, leaving Spencer as the only member. Parker and Spencer agreed that this situation was untenable and dissolved the Citizen's Council for this term. <br />
<br />
====Governorship of Gravois (July 2010-2015)====<br />
<br />
[[File:Gravois_Flag.jpg|thumb|Flag of Gravois]]<br />
<br />
After resigning his Citizen's Council seat, Spencer returned to life as a private citizen in Secundomia. He and [[Phineas Snow]] oversaw the development of forts in District 12 and the Backwoods of Middle Secundomia. Spencer contributed to a project mapping Secundomian states in early July. He also contributed to the maiden voyage of the [[Secundomian Navy|SRS]] Flying Squirrel. <br />
<br />
At the [[July 2010 Conservative Party National Convention (Secundomia)|July 2010 SCP convention]], Spencer submitted a bid for the Conservative Party line in the [[July 2010 Secundomian elections|July elections]]. Spencer was defeated at the convention and ran as an independent. A victory at the convention would have been a boon to his election, but as his primary base of support lie among independents, the loss was not devastating. However, a lack of computer access during the general election process lead to his defeat to SCP candidate Luke.<br />
<br />
On July 22, Spencer became governor of the new state of [[Gravois (state)|Gravois]]. He met with President Parker I and President-elect Luke at the Gravois National Naval Base shortly after to celebrate the state's entry into the republic. He also accompanied President Parker on a diplomatic embassy to St. Louis, Missouri the next week. <br />
<br />
Spencer again revived his bid for president in the September 2010 elections. After defeat by incumbent president Luke in the Conservative Party primaries, Spencer split to form Spencer's Super Awesome Party of Super Awesomeness which would eventually become the [[Secundomian Libertarian Party]]. Under the SSAPSA banner, Spencer was defeated in the general election by Parker I, running on the independent line. <br />
<br />
[[File:2010_Microlympics_logo.jpg|thumb|left|Logo of the 2010 Micronational Olympics]]<br />
<br />
Spencer lit the Micronational Olympic torch at the opening ceremonies of the [[2010 Micronational Olympics]] hosted by Secundomia. He became a lead figure in the organization of the Olympics and was set to compete at several events before it was cancelled. After the failure of the Olympics, Spencer turned his focus to the Secundomian [[Secundomian Agency for Air and Space Exploration|space program]]. He lead the team of Project Eagle, constructing both [[Eagle I]] and [[Eagle II]]. Alongside President Parker and Phineas Snow, he oversaw the two successful launches of Eagle I before its subsequent breakup. <br />
<br />
Spencer successfully garnered the Libertarian Party nomination for president in the [[2011 Secundomian Elections]]. The initial elections resulted in a tie between Spencer and incumbent Parker I. Spencer aggressively contested the election results claiming his vote was not counted. Although he had expressed his intent to vote for himself, according to Parker he never officially registered his vote via the email system. In February Spencer continued to contest the incomplete results mired by low turnout. After a runoff was finally scheduled, Spencer officially lost the election 3-1. <br />
<br />
He stepped away from Secundomian politics entirely after the 2011 elections except for his responsibilities as Governor of Gravois. He was never officially removed from office until the rise of the [[Democratic Republic of Secundomia]] when the Revolutionary Coalition lead by the [[Worker's Party of Secundomia|Worker's Party]] officially stripped him of governorship. Due to the abdication of [[King of Secundomia|King]] Parker I, by a legitimist interpretation, the title would progress to Spencer. However, Spencer has never claimed the title or opposed the removal of the Secundomian Monarchy.<br />

Prior to Secundomia, he was founder and president of the [[Republic of Skillz]]. He founded the [[Secundomian Libertarian Party]] and was [[Sterling Monarchy|Prince]] of [[Kingdom of Sterling|Sterling]] in 2010. After the rise of the [[Eran Federation]], Spencer stepped away from Secundomia and micronationalism in general. <br />
<br />
==Personal life==<br />
Spencer is the younger brother of fellow micronationalist Parker I. They were both homeschooled together through most of their early lives, but Spencer decided to pursue a public school education in 2009. The used this divided attention to great effect in Secundomia. While Parker was able to run most of the day-to-day operations using his extra time on the internet, Spencer was able to use his connections at school to create brick-and-mortar activity. <br />
<br />
==Micronational life==<br />
===Republic of Skillz===<br />
<br />
[[File:Skillzflag.png|thumb|Flag of the [[Republic of Skillz]]]]<br />
<br />
Spencer found interest in micronationalism in December 2009 after reading Wikipedia articles about [[Molossia]], the [[Aerican Empire]] and [[Sealand]] with his brother [[Parker I]]. The two brothers resolved to create a nation. On December 14, 2009, Spencer founded the Republic of Skillz with his friends at school. The full list of citizens is lost to time but [[Phineas Snow]] and [[Nate I]] were among them. The citizens elected Spencer president and he returned home to tell Parker of the nation. <br />
<br />
Skillz was unstable and collapsed the next day after Snow and other citizens left the nation. This coincided with the foundation of the [[Kingdom of Secundomia]] by Parker I, who had immediately declared war on Skillz. Nate remained as vice president but he and Spencer found the nation untenable long term. Spencer decided to merge the remnants with Parker's Kingdom and form a new, unnamed Micronation Republic.<br />
<br />
===Recruitment===<br />
<br />
Spencer recruited many [[Secundomia]]ns to the young micronation from his grade at school. These Secundomians include the [[Nate I]], artist and cultural leader, designer of the Secundomian flag, [[Phineas Snow]], chief Architect, and controversial Protest Group leaders [[Rahim I]] and [[Ibrahim I]]. Outside of Ibrahim, few of Spencer's recruits had large political ambitions but were extremely active as artists, entrepreneurs and military personnel. They often voted as a block in favor of Spencer in presidential elections which meant that catering to the needs of this segment of Secundomian society was critical to political success. <br />
<br />
Spencer became somewhat of a kingmaker in Secundomian politics. [[Luke of Secundomia|Luke]] derided the influence of this voting block claiming it was impossible for him to garner political support due to the high voter of Spencer's friends compared to the rest of the country. After the [[Cabinet Crisis]] and the departure of Rahim from the nation this block began to lose significant power. Nate became less active while Phineas was preoccupied with military duties and cautious about politics. Ibrahim began to run in elections himself which further split Spencer's base. Spencer was largely unable to gain political power again in Secundomia.<br />
<br />
===Elections and Administrations===<br />
====Consulate (December 2009)====<br />
Spencer I, along with [[Parker I]], named themselves interim "co-consuls" until a formal election could be scheduled. In this time, Spencer was involved in the drafting of the Secundomian constitution, first on paper and then transcribed into email by Parker. Spencer was a highly active figure in the brick-and-mortar operations of Secundomia but was less active on email threads. <br />
<br />
Spencer announced his candidacy to run for re-election in the [[December 2009 Secundomian elections]]. He was unable to garner support on the email chains where the election was conducted and ran a quiet campaign. In contrast, Luke of Secundomia and Parker I engaged in significant mudslinging about the election and began to draw the ire among the citizenry of Secundomia. Luke also campaigned heavily against Spencer and accused him of being inactive. The preliminary phases of the election saw Spencer eliminated from contention and reduced the field to Parker and Luke.<br />
<br />
Spencer played a major role in the resolution of the December campaign. Despite being out of the running, he met with co-consul Parker I and they resolved to a system of co-presidents which would enable Parker and Luke to both take power. Spencer was initially somewhat resistant and proposed that this new system be subject to a public referendum rather than consulate fiat. After the public referendum was released and received significant support, Spencer retroactively approved the amendment to the constitution and approved the change, resulting in the co-presidency of Luke and Parker. <br />
<br />
====Co-President (February 2010)====<br />
Spencer again announced his candidacy for President in the [[January 2010 Secundomian elections|January 2010 elections]]. Incumbent co-president Parker announced a joint-ticket candidacy with Spencer attempting to realign from Luke and increase support from Spencer's voting block. This strategy was successful and both were elected to the office of co-president. Luke derided Spencer's influence and refused to accept the result for some time. <br />
<br />
As co-president Spencer I joined the [[Secundomian Conservative Party]] forming a united administration under the SCP. The administration presided over a period of internal quiet. Spencer also became Prince of Sterling at this time. While Parker focused on international affairs, Spencer was mainly in charge of the internal running of Secundomia at the time. This division of power was agreeable to both brothers and resulted in a welcome stability in comparison to the earlier strife.<br />
<br />
Spencer became an extremely popular figure during the co-presidential administration. Even among Luke's supporters Spencer began to gain popularity. The administration approved a shift to a single president for the next election cycle and Spencer became an early frontrunner. The Conservative Party primary resulted in a tie between both co-presidents and thus both carried the Conservative line in the general. Against Parker and the independent candidacy of Ibrahim, Spencer achieved a landslide victory carried by speeches and mailers that outcompeted his opponents. <br />
<br />
Prior to his inauguration, he presided over a short period in Secundomia known as the Golden Days. Multiple states were formed and Secundomia's first official flag was approved. This period increased public anticipation for Spencer's administration, seen by many as a continuation of this successful period. <br />
<br />
====Presidency (March 2010)====<br />
Spencer became the first Secundomian president with full powers on March 1, 2010. He governed with an even hand and devolved much of his power to others, appointing the first cabinet in Secundomian history. Although he was head of state in Secundomia, most foreign affairs were devolved to Parker and Spencer focused mainly on the internal governance of the republic. He further signed a law creating the [[Secundomian Congress]] and conducted Operation Annex which increased the size of the capital of [[Middle Secundomia]]. <br />
<br />
Under the Secundomian Constitution, Spencer was automatically nominated for reelection in the [[Secundomian presidential election, March 2010|March elections]]. Despite his popularity, Spencer decided to run a quiet campaign and focus on his bid for Citizen's Council. He declined to seek the nomination for the Conservative Party and run on the independent Presidential Ticket. For the first time, party lines became important in a crowded general election. Spencer and [[Secundomian Liberal Party|Liberal Party]] candidate [[Seth I]] each received a small portion of votes while Conservative candidates Parker and Luke received 75% of the total share. Parker was elected president, and Spencer accepted defeat. However, he was elected on the Conservative line to the Citizen's Council and took office as a council member on April 1. <br />
<br />
====Councillor (April–May 2010)====<br />
Spencer joined the Citizen's Council of the Secundomian Congress in April 2010. Any actions by the council were put on hold by the [[Cabinet Crisis]]. Spencer played a small, but significant role in the crisis. Alongside much of Secundomia, Spencer was an early supporter of Rahim and Ibrahim's right to speak out against the Parker I administration. He even affirmed many of the complaints and aligned with the Protest Group. As a juror in the Trial of Ibrahim I, Spencer ruled in favor of Ibrahim and helped contribute to the early end of the trial. <br />
<br />
After the trial, Spencer began to realign with Parker I. Spencer agreed that Ibrahim and Rahim crossed a line with their harassment of the [[Empress of Atlan]]. As a councilor spencer cast a deciding vote to exile [[Rahim I]] from the country and issue a warning to Ibrahim. This action resulted in the apologies from the leaders of the Protest Group and the end of the Cabinet Crisis. <br />
<br />
Spencer announced his candidacy for re-election to the Citizen's Council in May 2010 alongside a parallel bid to return to the office of the presidency. Spencer won the Conservative Party nominations, defeating challenger Ibrahim I in the process. Ibrahim decided to run on an independent ticket and Parker ran on the automatically nominated Presidential ticket. In a shocking move, Spencer dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed Ibrahim in late may. He mistakenly believed that this would ensure Ibrahim's presidency not realizing that Parker was also running. This move did put wind in the sails of the Ibrahim I campaign, however, resulting in an unresolved tie. Spencer won re-election to the Citizen's council in the same election.<br />
<br />
====Interim Presidency (June 2010)====<br />
Due to the unresolved tie at the end of President Parker I's two-month term, Spencer was agreed by Ibrahim and Parker to oversee an interim period until a runoff election could be held. Spencer thus returned to the office of the president in Secundomia on June 1, 2010. After several runoff attempts, a final vote was certified by the Secundomian government and Parker I became president on June 8, ending the shortest term of any Secundomian president. As a result of this outcome, Parker had to refuse his seat on the Citizen's Council, leaving Spencer as the only member. Parker and Spencer agreed that this situation was untenable and dissolved the Citizen's Council for this term. <br />
<br />
====Governorship of Gravois (July 2010-2015)====<br />
<br />
[[File:Gravois_Flag.jpg|thumb|Flag of Gravois]]<br />
<br />
After resigning his Citizen's Council seat, Spencer returned to life as a private citizen in Secundomia. He and [[Phineas Snow]] oversaw the development of forts in District 12 and the Backwoods of Middle Secundomia. Spencer contributed to a project mapping Secundomian states in early July. He also contributed to the maiden voyage of the [[Secundomian Navy|SRS]] Flying Squirrel. <br />
<br />
At the [[July 2010 Conservative Party National Convention (Secundomia)|July 2010 SCP convention]], Spencer submitted a bid for the Conservative Party line in the [[July 2010 Secundomian elections|July elections]]. Spencer was defeated at the convention and ran as an independent. A victory at the convention would have been a boon to his election, but as his primary base of support lie among independents, the loss was not devastating. However, a lack of computer access during the general election process lead to his defeat to SCP candidate Luke.<br />
<br />
On July 22, Spencer became governor of the new state of [[Gravois (state)|Gravois]]. He met with President Parker I and President-elect Luke at the Gravois National Naval Base shortly after to celebrate the state's entry into the republic. He also accompanied President Parker on a diplomatic embassy to St. Louis, Missouri the next week. <br />
<br />
Spencer again revived his bid for president in the September 2010 elections. After defeat by incumbent president Luke in the Conservative Party primaries, Spencer split to form Spencer's Super Awesome Party of Super Awesomeness which would eventually become the [[Secundomian Libertarian Party]]. Under the SSAPSA banner, Spencer was defeated in the general election by Parker I, running on the independent line. <br />
<br />
[[File:2010_Microlympics_logo.jpg|thumb|left|Logo of the 2010 Micronational Olympics]]<br />
<br />
Spencer lit the Micronational Olympic torch at the opening ceremonies of the [[2010 Micronational Olympics]] hosted by Secundomia. He became a lead figure in the organization of the Olympics and was set to compete at several events before it was cancelled. After the failure of the Olympics, Spencer turned his focus to the Secundomian [[Secundomian Agency for Air and Space Exploration|space program]]. He lead the team of Project Eagle, constructing both [[Eagle I]] and [[Eagle II]]. Alongside President Parker and Phineas Snow, he oversaw the two successful launches of Eagle I before its subsequent breakup. <br />
<br />
Spencer successfully garnered the Libertarian Party nomination for president in the [[2011 Secundomian Elections]]. The initial elections resulted in a tie between Spencer and incumbent Parker I. Spencer aggressively contested the election results claiming his vote was not counted. Although he had expressed his intent to vote for himself, according to Parker he never officially registered his vote via the email system. In February Spencer continued to contest the incomplete results mired by low turnout. After a runoff was finally scheduled, Spencer officially lost the election 3-1. <br />
<br />
He stepped away from Secundomian politics entirely after the 2011 elections except for his responsibilities as Governor of Gravois. He was never officially removed from office until the rise of the [[Democratic Republic of Secundomia]] when the Revolutionary Coalition lead by the [[Worker's Party of Secundomia|Worker's Party]] officially stripped him of governorship. Due to the abdication of [[King of Secundomia|King]] Parker I, by a legitimist interpretation, the title would progress to Spencer. However, Spencer has never claimed the title or opposed the removal of the Secundomian Monarchy.<br />

They were both homeschooled together through most of their early lives, but Spencer decided to pursue a public school education in 2009. The used this divided attention to great effect in Secundomia. While Parker was able to run most of the day-to-day operations using his extra time on the internet, Spencer was able to use his connections at school to create brick-and-mortar activity. <br />
<br />
==Micronational life==<br />
===Republic of Skillz===<br />
<br />
[[File:Skillzflag.png|thumb|Flag of the [[Republic of Skillz]]]]<br />
<br />
Spencer found interest in micronationalism in December 2009 after reading Wikipedia articles about [[Molossia]], the [[Aerican Empire]] and [[Sealand]] with his brother [[Parker I]]. The two brothers resolved to create a nation. On December 14, 2009, Spencer founded the Republic of Skillz with his friends at school. The full list of citizens is lost to time but [[Phineas Snow]] and [[Nate I]] were among them. The citizens elected Spencer president and he returned home to tell Parker of the nation. <br />
<br />
Skillz was unstable and collapsed the next day after Snow and other citizens left the nation. This coincided with the foundation of the [[Kingdom of Secundomia]] by Parker I, who had immediately declared war on Skillz. Nate remained as vice president but he and Spencer found the nation untenable long term. Spencer decided to merge the remnants with Parker's Kingdom and form a new, unnamed Micronation Republic.<br />
<br />
===Recruitment===<br />
<br />
Spencer recruited many [[Secundomia]]ns to the young micronation from his grade at school. These Secundomians include the [[Nate I]], artist and cultural leader, designer of the Secundomian flag, [[Phineas Snow]], chief Architect, and controversial Protest Group leaders [[Rahim I]] and [[Ibrahim I]]. Outside of Ibrahim, few of Spencer's recruits had large political ambitions but were extremely active as artists, entrepreneurs and military personnel. They often voted as a block in favor of Spencer in presidential elections which meant that catering to the needs of this segment of Secundomian society was critical to political success. <br />
<br />
Spencer became somewhat of a kingmaker in Secundomian politics. [[Luke of Secundomia|Luke]] derided the influence of this voting block claiming it was impossible for him to garner political support due to the high voter of Spencer's friends compared to the rest of the country. After the [[Cabinet Crisis]] and the departure of Rahim from the nation this block began to lose significant power. Nate became less active while Phineas was preoccupied with military duties and cautious about politics. Ibrahim began to run in elections himself which further split Spencer's base. Spencer was largely unable to gain political power again in Secundomia.<br />
<br />
===Elections and Administrations===<br />
====Consulate (December 2009)====<br />
Spencer I, along with [[Parker I]], named themselves interim "co-consuls" until a formal election could be scheduled. In this time, Spencer was involved in the drafting of the Secundomian constitution, first on paper and then transcribed into email by Parker. Spencer was a highly active figure in the brick-and-mortar operations of Secundomia but was less active on email threads. <br />
<br />
Spencer announced his candidacy to run for re-election in the [[December 2009 Secundomian elections]]. He was unable to garner support on the email chains where the election was conducted and ran a quiet campaign. In contrast, Luke of Secundomia and Parker I engaged in significant mudslinging about the election and began to draw the ire among the citizenry of Secundomia. Luke also campaigned heavily against Spencer and accused him of being inactive. The preliminary phases of the election saw Spencer eliminated from contention and reduced the field to Parker and Luke.<br />
<br />
Spencer played a major role in the resolution of the December campaign. Despite being out of the running, he met with co-consul Parker I and they resolved to a system of co-presidents which would enable Parker and Luke to both take power. Spencer was initially somewhat resistant and proposed that this new system be subject to a public referendum rather than consulate fiat. After the public referendum was released and received significant support, Spencer retroactively approved the amendment to the constitution and approved the change, resulting in the co-presidency of Luke and Parker. <br />
<br />
====Co-President (February 2010)====<br />
Spencer again announced his candidacy for President in the [[January 2010 Secundomian elections|January 2010 elections]]. Incumbent co-president Parker announced a joint-ticket candidacy with Spencer attempting to realign from Luke and increase support from Spencer's voting block. This strategy was successful and both were elected to the office of co-president. Luke derided Spencer's influence and refused to accept the result for some time. <br />
<br />
As co-president Spencer I joined the [[Secundomian Conservative Party]] forming a united administration under the SCP. The administration presided over a period of internal quiet. Spencer also became Prince of Sterling at this time. While Parker focused on international affairs, Spencer was mainly in charge of the internal running of Secundomia at the time. This division of power was agreeable to both brothers and resulted in a welcome stability in comparison to the earlier strife.<br />
<br />
Spencer became an extremely popular figure during the co-presidential administration. Even among Luke's supporters Spencer began to gain popularity. The administration approved a shift to a single president for the next election cycle and Spencer became an early frontrunner. The Conservative Party primary resulted in a tie between both co-presidents and thus both carried the Conservative line in the general. Against Parker and the independent candidacy of Ibrahim, Spencer achieved a landslide victory carried by speeches and mailers that outcompeted his opponents. <br />
<br />
Prior to his inauguration, he presided over a short period in Secundomia known as the Golden Days. Multiple states were formed and Secundomia's first official flag was approved. This period increased public anticipation for Spencer's administration, seen by many as a continuation of this successful period. <br />
<br />
====Presidency (March 2010)====<br />
Spencer became the first Secundomian president with full powers on March 1, 2010. He governed with an even hand and devolved much of his power to others, appointing the first cabinet in Secundomian history. Although he was head of state in Secundomia, most foreign affairs were devolved to Parker and Spencer focused mainly on the internal governance of the republic. He further signed a law creating the [[Secundomian Congress]] and conducted Operation Annex which increased the size of the capital of [[Middle Secundomia]]. <br />
<br />
Under the Secundomian Constitution, Spencer was automatically nominated for reelection in the [[Secundomian presidential election, March 2010|March elections]]. Despite his popularity, Spencer decided to run a quiet campaign and focus on his bid for Citizen's Council. He declined to seek the nomination for the Conservative Party and run on the independent Presidential Ticket. For the first time, party lines became important in a crowded general election. Spencer and [[Secundomian Liberal Party|Liberal Party]] candidate [[Seth I]] each received a small portion of votes while Conservative candidates Parker and Luke received 75% of the total share. Parker was elected president, and Spencer accepted defeat. However, he was elected on the Conservative line to the Citizen's Council and took office as a council member on April 1. <br />
<br />
====Councillor (April–May 2010)====<br />
Spencer joined the Citizen's Council of the Secundomian Congress in April 2010. Any actions by the council were put on hold by the [[Cabinet Crisis]]. Spencer played a small, but significant role in the crisis. Alongside much of Secundomia, Spencer was an early supporter of Rahim and Ibrahim's right to speak out against the Parker I administration. He even affirmed many of the complaints and aligned with the Protest Group. As a juror in the Trial of Ibrahim I, Spencer ruled in favor of Ibrahim and helped contribute to the early end of the trial. <br />
<br />
After the trial, Spencer began to realign with Parker I. Spencer agreed that Ibrahim and Rahim crossed a line with their harassment of the [[Empress of Atlan]]. As a councilor spencer cast a deciding vote to exile [[Rahim I]] from the country and issue a warning to Ibrahim. This action resulted in the apologies from the leaders of the Protest Group and the end of the Cabinet Crisis. <br />
<br />
Spencer announced his candidacy for re-election to the Citizen's Council in May 2010 alongside a parallel bid to return to the office of the presidency. Spencer won the Conservative Party nominations, defeating challenger Ibrahim I in the process. Ibrahim decided to run on an independent ticket and Parker ran on the automatically nominated Presidential ticket. In a shocking move, Spencer dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed Ibrahim in late may. He mistakenly believed that this would ensure Ibrahim's presidency not realizing that Parker was also running. This move did put wind in the sails of the Ibrahim I campaign, however, resulting in an unresolved tie. Spencer won re-election to the Citizen's council in the same election.<br />
<br />
====Interim Presidency (June 2010)====<br />
Due to the unresolved tie at the end of President Parker I's two-month term, Spencer was agreed by Ibrahim and Parker to oversee an interim period until a runoff election could be held. Spencer thus returned to the office of the president in Secundomia on June 1, 2010. After several runoff attempts, a final vote was certified by the Secundomian government and Parker I became president on June 8, ending the shortest term of any Secundomian president. As a result of this outcome, Parker had to refuse his seat on the Citizen's Council, leaving Spencer as the only member. Parker and Spencer agreed that this situation was untenable and dissolved the Citizen's Council for this term. <br />
<br />
====Governorship of Gravois (July 2010-2015)====<br />
After resigning his Citizen's Council seat, Spencer returned to life as a private citizen in Secundomia. He and [[Phineas Snow]] oversaw the development of forts in District 12 and the Backwoods of Middle Secundomia. Spencer contributed to a project mapping Secundomian states in early July. He also contributed to the maiden voyage of the [[Secundomian Navy|SRS]] Flying Squirrel. <br />
<br />
At the [[July 2010 Conservative Party National Convention (Secundomia)|July 2010 SCP convention]], Spencer submitted a bid for the Conservative Party line in the [[July 2010 Secundomian elections|July elections]]. Spencer was defeated at the convention and ran as an independent. A victory at the convention would have been a boon to his election, but as his primary base of support lie among independents, the loss was not devastating. However, a lack of computer access during the general election process lead to his defeat to SCP candidate Luke.<br />
<br />
On July 22, Spencer became governor of the new state of [[Gravois (state)|Gravois]]. He met with President Parker I and President-elect Luke at the Gravois National Naval Base shortly after to celebrate the state's entry into the republic. He also accompanied President Parker on a diplomatic embassy to St. Louis, Missouri the next week. <br />
<br />
Spencer again revived his bid for president in the September 2010 elections. After defeat by incumbent president Luke in the Conservative Party primaries, Spencer split to form Spencer's Super Awesome Party of Super Awesomeness which would eventually become the [[Secundomian Libertarian Party]]. Under the SSAPSA banner, Spencer was defeated in the general election by Parker I, running on the independent line. <br />
<br />
Spencer lit the Micronational Olympic torch at the opening ceremonies of the [[2010 Micronational Olympics]] hosted by Secundomia. He became a lead figure in the organization of the Olympics and was set to compete at several events before it was cancelled. After the failure of the Olympics, Spencer turned his focus to the Secundomian [[Secundomian Agency for Air and Space Exploration|space program]]. He lead the team of Project Eagle, constructing both [[Eagle I]] and [[Eagle II]]. Alongside President Parker and Phineas Snow, he oversaw the two successful launches of Eagle I before its subsequent breakup. <br />
<br />
Spencer successfully garnered the Libertarian Party nomination for president in the [[2011 Secundomian Elections]]. The initial elections resulted in a tie between Spencer and incumbent Parker I. Spencer aggressively contested the election results claiming his vote was not counted. Although he had expressed his intent to vote for himself, according to Parker he never officially registered his vote via the email system. In February Spencer continued to contest the incomplete results mired by low turnout. After a runoff was finally scheduled, Spencer officially lost the election 3-1. <br />
<br />
He stepped away from Secundomian politics entirely after the 2011 elections except for his responsibilities as Governor of Gravois. He was never officially removed from office until the rise of the [[Democratic Republic of Secundomia]] when the Revolutionary Coalition lead by the [[Worker's Party of Secundomia|Worker's Party]] officially stripped him of governorship. Due to the abdication of [[King of Secundomia|King]] Parker I, by a legitimist interpretation, the title would progress to Spencer. However, Spencer has never claimed the title or opposed the removal of the Secundomian Monarchy.<br />

Nate remained as vice president but he and Spencer found the nation untenable long term. Spencer decided to merge the remnants with Parker's Kingdom and form a new, unnamed Micronation Republic.<br />
<br />
===Recruitment===<br />
<br />
Spencer recruited many [[Secundomia]]ns to the young micronation from his grade at school. These Secundomians include the [[Nate I]], artist and cultural leader, designer of the Secundomian flag, [[Phineas Snow]], chief Architect, and controversial Protest Group leaders [[Rahim I]] and [[Ibrahim I]]. Outside of Ibrahim, few of Spencer's recruits had large political ambitions but were extremely active as artists, entrepreneurs and military personnel. They often voted as a block in favor of Spencer in presidential elections which meant that catering to the needs of this segment of Secundomian society was critical to political success. <br />
<br />
Spencer became somewhat of a kingmaker in Secundomian politics. [[Luke of Secundomia|Luke]] derided the influence of this voting block claiming it was impossible for him to garner political support due to the high voter of Spencer's friends compared to the rest of the country. After the [[Cabinet Crisis]] and the departure of Rahim from the nation this block began to lose significant power. Nate became less active while Phineas was preoccupied with military duties and cautious about politics. Ibrahim began to run in elections himself which further split Spencer's base. Spencer was largely unable to gain political power again in Secundomia.<br />
<br />
===Elections and Administrations===<br />
====Consulate (December 2009)====<br />
Spencer I, along with [[Parker I]], named themselves interim "co-consuls" until a formal election could be scheduled. In this time, Spencer was involved in the drafting of the Secundomian constitution, first on paper and then transcribed into email by Parker. Spencer was a highly active figure in the brick-and-mortar operations of Secundomia but was less active on email threads. <br />
<br />
Spencer announced his candidacy to run for re-election in the [[December 2009 Secundomian elections]]. He was unable to garner support on the email chains where the election was conducted and ran a quiet campaign. In contrast, Luke of Secundomia and Parker I engaged in significant mudslinging about the election and began to draw the ire among the citizenry of Secundomia. Luke also campaigned heavily against Spencer and accused him of being inactive. The preliminary phases of the election saw Spencer eliminated from contention and reduced the field to Parker and Luke.<br />
<br />
Spencer played a major role in the resolution of the December campaign. Despite being out of the running, he met with co-consul Parker I and they resolved to a system of co-presidents which would enable Parker and Luke to both take power. Spencer was initially somewhat resistant and proposed that this new system be subject to a public referendum rather than consulate fiat. After the public referendum was released and received significant support, Spencer retroactively approved the amendment to the constitution and approved the change, resulting in the co-presidency of Luke and Parker. <br />
<br />
====Co-President (February 2010)====<br />
Spencer again announced his candidacy for President in the [[January 2010 Secundomian elections|January 2010 elections]]. Incumbent co-president Parker announced a joint-ticket candidacy with Spencer attempting to realign from Luke and increase support from Spencer's voting block. This strategy was successful and both were elected to the office of co-president. Luke derided Spencer's influence and refused to accept the result for some time. <br />
<br />
As co-president Spencer I joined the [[Secundomian Conservative Party]] forming a united administration under the SCP. The administration presided over a period of internal quiet. Spencer also became Prince of Sterling at this time. While Parker focused on international affairs, Spencer was mainly in charge of the internal running of Secundomia at the time. This division of power was agreeable to both brothers and resulted in a welcome stability in comparison to the earlier strife.<br />
<br />
Spencer became an extremely popular figure during the co-presidential administration. Even among Luke's supporters Spencer began to gain popularity. The administration approved a shift to a single president for the next election cycle and Spencer became an early frontrunner. The Conservative Party primary resulted in a tie between both co-presidents and thus both carried the Conservative line in the general. Against Parker and the independent candidacy of Ibrahim, Spencer achieved a landslide victory carried by speeches and mailers that outcompeted his opponents. <br />
<br />
Prior to his inauguration, he presided over a short period in Secundomia known as the Golden Days. Multiple states were formed and Secundomia's first official flag was approved. This period increased public anticipation for Spencer's administration, seen by many as a continuation of this successful period. <br />
<br />
====Presidency (March 2010)====<br />
Spencer became the first Secundomian president with full powers on March 1, 2010. He governed with an even hand and devolved much of his power to others, appointing the first cabinet in Secundomian history. Although he was head of state in Secundomia, most foreign affairs were devolved to Parker and Spencer focused mainly on the internal governance of the republic. He further signed a law creating the [[Secundomian Congress]] and conducted Operation Annex which increased the size of the capital of [[Middle Secundomia]]. <br />
<br />
Under the Secundomian Constitution, Spencer was automatically nominated for reelection in the [[Secundomian presidential election, March 2010|March elections]]. Despite his popularity, Spencer decided to run a quiet campaign and focus on his bid for Citizen's Council. He declined to seek the nomination for the Conservative Party and run on the independent Presidential Ticket. For the first time, party lines became important in a crowded general election. Spencer and [[Secundomian Liberal Party|Liberal Party]] candidate [[Seth I]] each received a small portion of votes while Conservative candidates Parker and Luke received 75% of the total share. Parker was elected president, and Spencer accepted defeat. However, he was elected on the Conservative line to the Citizen's Council and took office as a council member on April 1. <br />
<br />
====Councilor (April–May 2010)====<br />
Spencer joined the Citizen's Council of the Secundomian Congress in April 2010. Any actions by the council were put on hold by the [[Cabinet Crisis]]. Spencer played a small, but significant role in the crisis. Alongside much of Secundomia, Spencer was an early supporter of Rahim and Ibrahim's right to speak out against the Parker I administration. He even affirmed many of the complaints and aligned with the Protest Group. As a juror in the Trial of Ibrahim I, Spencer ruled in favor of Ibrahim and helped contribute to the early end of the trial. <br />
<br />
After the trial, Spencer began to realign with Parker I. Spencer agreed that Ibrahim and Rahim crossed a line with their harassment of the [[Empress of Atlan]]. As a councilor spencer cast a deciding vote to exile [[Rahim I]] from the country and issue a warning to Ibrahim. This action resulted in the apologies from the leaders of the Protest Group and the end of the Cabinet Crisis. <br />
<br />
Spencer announced his candidacy for re-election to the Citizen's Council in May 2010 alongside a parallel bid to return to the office of the presidency. Spencer won the Conservative Party nominations, defeating challenger Ibrahim I in the process. Ibrahim decided to run on an independent ticket and Parker ran on the automatically nominated Presidential ticket. In a shocking move, Spencer dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed Ibrahim in late may. He mistakenly believed that this would ensure Ibrahim's presidency not realizing that Parker was also running. This move did put wind in the sails of the Ibrahim I campaign, however, resulting in an unresolved tie. Spencer won re-election to the Citizen's council in the same election. <br />
<br />
====Interim Presidency (June 2010)====<br />
Due to the unresolved tie at the end of President Parker I's two-month term, Spencer was agreed by Ibrahim and Parker to oversee an interim period until a runoff election could be held. Spencer thus returned to the office of the president in Secundomia on June 1, 2010. After several runoff attempts, a final vote was certified by the Secundomian government and Parker I became president on June 8, ending the shortest term of any Secundomian president. As a result of this outcome, Parker had to refuse his seat on the Citizen's Council, leaving Spencer as the only member. Parker and Spencer agreed that this situation was untenable and dissolved the Citizen's Council for this term. <br />
<br />
====Governorship of Gravois (July 2010-2015)====<br />
After resigning his Citizen's Council seat, Spencer returned to life as a private citizen in Secundomia. He and [[Phineas Snow]] oversaw the development of forts in District 12 and the Backwoods of Middle Secundomia. Spencer contributed to a project mapping Secundomian states in early July. He also contributed to the maiden voyage of the [[Secundomian Navy|SRS]] Flying Squirrel. <br />
<br />
At the [[July 2010 Conservative Party National Convention (Secundomia)|July 2010 SCP convention]], Spencer submitted a bid for the Conservative Party line in the [[July 2010 Secundomian elections|July elections]]. Spencer was defeated at the convention and ran as an independent. A victory at the convention would have been a boon to his election, but as his primary base of support lie among independents, the loss was not devastating. However, a lack of computer access during the general election process lead to his defeat to SCP candidate Luke.<br />
<br />
On July 22, Spencer became governor of the new state of [[Gravois (state)|Gravois]]. He met with President Parker I and President-elect Luke at the Gravois National Naval Base shortly after to celebrate the state's entry into the republic. He also accompanied President Parker on a diplomatic embassy to St. Louis, Missouri the next week. <br />
<br />
Spencer again revived his bid for president in the September 2010 elections. After defeat by incumbent president Luke in the Conservative Party primaries, Spencer split to form Spencer's Super Awesome Party of Super Awesomeness which would eventually become the [[Secundomian Libertarian Party]]. Under the SSAPSA banner, Spencer was defeated in the general election by Parker I, running on the independent line. <br />
<br />
Spencer lit the Micronational Olympic torch at the opening ceremonies of the [[2010 Micronational Olympics]] hosted by Secundomia. He became a lead figure in the organization of the Olympics and was set to compete at several events before it was cancelled. After the failure of the Olympics, Spencer turned his focus to the Secundomian [[Secundomian Agency for Air and Space Exploration|space program]]. He lead the team of Project Eagle, constructing both [[Eagle I]] and [[Eagle II]]. Alongside President Parker and Phineas Snow, he oversaw the two successful launches of Eagle I before its subsequent breakup. <br />
<br />
Spencer successfully garnered the Libertarian Party nomination for president in the [[2011 Secundomian Elections]]. The initial elections resulted in a tie between Spencer and incumbent Parker I. Spencer aggressively contested the election results claiming his vote was not counted. Although he had expressed his intent to vote for himself, according to Parker he never officially registered his vote via the email system. In February Spencer continued to contest the incomplete results mired by low turnout. After a runoff was finally scheduled, Spencer officially lost the election 3-1. <br />
<br />
He stepped away from Secundomian politics entirely after the 2011 elections except for his responsibilities as Governor of Gravois. He was never officially removed from office until the rise of the [[Democratic Republic of Secundomia]] when the Revolutionary Coalition lead by the [[Worker's Party of Secundomia|Worker's Party]] officially stripped him of governorship. Due to the abdication of [[King of Secundomia|King]] Parker I, by a legitimist interpretation, the title would progress to Spencer. However, Spencer has never claimed the title or opposed the removal of the Secundomian Monarchy.<br />

<br />
'''Spencer I''' is a retired micronationalist who helped found the [[Republic of Secundomia]]. Alongside his brother [[Parker I]] he helped draft the original [[Secundomian Constitution|constitution]] of Secundomia. He was co-consul of Secundomia at its inception and was elected president of Secundomia multiple times as a member of the [[Secundomian Conservative Party]]. Prior to Secundomia, he was founder and president of the [[Republic of Skillz]]. He founded the [[Secundomian Libertarian Party]] and was [[Sterling Monarchy|Prince]] of [[Kingdom of Sterling|Sterling]] in 2010. After the rise of the [[Eran Federation]], Spencer stepped away from Secundomia and micronationalism in general. <br />
<br />
==Personal life==<br />
Spencer is the younger brother of fellow micronationalist Parker I. They were both homeschooled together through most of their early lives, but Spencer decided to pursue a public school education in 2009. The used this divided attention to great effect in Secundomia. While Parker was able to run most of the day-to-day operations using his extra time on the internet, Spencer was able to use his connections at school to create brick-and-mortar activity. <br />
<br />
==Micronational life==<br />
===Republic of Skillz===<br />
Spencer found interest in micronationalism in December 2009 after reading Wikipedia articles about [[Molossia]], the [[Aerican Empire]] and [[Sealand]] with his brother [[Parker I]]. The two brothers resolved to create a nation. On December 14, 2009, Spencer founded the Republic of Skillz with his friends at school. The full list of citizens is lost to time but [[Phineas Snow]] and [[Nate I]] were among them. The citizens elected Spencer president and he returned home to tell Parker of the nation. <br />
<br />
Skillz was unstable and collapsed the next day after Snow and other citizens left the nation. This coincided with the foundation of the [[Kingdom of Secundomia]] by Parker I, who had immediately declared war on Skillz. Nate remained as vice president but he and Spencer found the nation untenable long term.

The '''Anti-Sloth Party''' (ASP) was a [[Democratic Republic of Secundomia|Secundomian]] [[w:political party|political party]] lead by Brennan I. It was a [[w:Social Democracy|Social Democratic]] and [[w:Democratic Socialism|Democratic Socialist]] party. Although it stood on the left wing of the broader political spectrum, it was relatively moderate compared to the [[Worker's Party of Secundomia|Worker's Party (WPS)]] which lead the Revolutionary Coalition the Democratic Republic of Secundomia. The party favors a democratic transition to socialism, and opposes the radical and authoritarian tendencies of the WPS, which ascribes to [[w:Marxism-Leninism-Maoism|Marxism-Leninism-Maoism]]. <br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
=== Foundation ===<br />
The ASP was founded on August 27, 2015 during the establishment of the Democratic Republic of Secundomia. After King Parker I's abdication, the ASP swept in conjunction with the Worker's Party to establish a coalition revolutionary government. Originally, Brennan I was a part of the Worker's Movement but due to their opposition to totalitarianism and sloth branched off to form the ASP. Although the Worker's Party leadership was somewhat concerned with this development, they found unrest to be unproductive in the young Democratic Republic. The ASP formed a tenative coalition with the WPS to consolidate power.<br />
<br />
=== Inactivity and Dissolution ===<br />
While the WPS was largely active in leadership of Secundomia, the ASP began to slink away from power in later 2015. The ASP was never officially dissolved, but did not take part in the formation of the [[Federation of Secundomian Socialist Republics|FSSR]] in 2016. The Worker's Party broke the coalition when it evolved into the [[Maoist-Worker's Party of Secundomia|Maoist-Worker's Party]].<br />
<br />
== Platform ==<br />
<br />
[[File:SecundomianPoliticalParties.png|thumb|Rough Political Compass graph of Secundomian Political Parties. The ASP is identified in the bottom left.]]<br />
<br />
In addition to it's opposition to violence, the ASP is strongly against both [[w:Sloth (deadly sin)|sloth]] (as in Laziness) and [[w:Sloth|sloths]] (as in the mammal.)

The '''Anti-Sloth Party''' (ASP) was a [[Democratic Republic of Secundomia|Secundomian]] [[w:political party|political party]] lead by Brennan I. It was a [[w:Social Democracy|Social Democratic]] and [[w:Democratic Socialism|Democratic Socialist]] party. Although it stood on the left wing of the broader political spectrum, it was relatively moderate compared to the [[Worker's Party of Secundomia|Worker's Party (WPS)]] which lead the Revolutionary Coalition the Democratic Republic of Secundomia. The party favors a democratic transition to socialism, and opposes the radical and authoritarian tendencies of the WPS, which ascribes to [[w:Marxism-Leninism-Maoism|Marxism-Leninism-Maoism]]. <br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
=== Foundation ===<br />
The ASP was founded on August 27, 2015 during the establishment of the Democratic Republic of Secundomia. After King Parker I's abdication, the ASP swept in conjunction with the Worker's Party to establish a coalition revolutionary government. Originally, Brennan I was a part of the Worker's Movement but due to their opposition to totalitarianism and sloth branched off to form the ASP. Although the Worker's Party leadership was somewhat concerned with this development, they found unrest to be unproductive in the young Democratic Republic. The ASP formed a tenative coalition with the WPS to consolidate power.<br />
<br />
=== Inactivity and Dissolution ===<br />
While the WPS was largely active in leadership of Secundomia, the ASP began to slink away from power in later 2015. The ASP was never officially dissolved, but did not take part in the formation of the [[Federation of Secundomian Socialist Republics|FSSR]] in 2016. The Worker's Party broke the coalition when it evolved into the [[Maoist-Worker's Party of Secundomia|Maoist-Worker's Party]].<br />

The '''Worker's Party of Secundomia''' or '''WPS''' was a [[w:Marxism-Leninism-Maoism|Marxist-Leninist-Maoist]] political party in the [[Democratic Republic of Secundomia]]. It was founded by Jaedon I and chaired via a vanguard committee including Parker I and Antonia I. It was a major force in the restructuring of the longtime capitalist country of [[Secundomia]] into a socialist state. <br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
=== Foundation ===<br />
In August 2015, Jaedon I founded the Worker's Party of Secundomia as a part of the broader Worker's Movement after being granted citizenship in the [[Third Kingdom of Secundomia|Kingdom of Secundomia]]. The party rose out of the Kingdom's new claim to Eastern Secundomia. Other new citizens Antonia and Brennan joined the party and they presented demands to the King of Secundomia Parker I. Although Parker I lead the right-wing [[Secundomian Nationalist Monarchist Party|SNMP]] at the time, he welcomed any activity in the nation and immediately abdicated to join the ranks of the Worker's Movement.<br />
<br />
=== Revolutionary Coalition ===<br />
Jaedon became President of the Worker's Party of Secundomia after the successful bloodless revolution. Parker and Antonia were also appointed positions, with Parker becoming chairperson of the new Democratic Republic. Because Jaedon and Parker were especially steadfast in their advocacy for Maoist principles like violent revolution, Brennan broke off from the movement to form the moderate [[Anti-Sloth Party]]. The two parties continued to work together as they formed the Revolutionary Coalition government. The WPS held 3 seats in the Revolutionary Coalition. <br />
<br />
Despite early activity, the Revolutionary Coalition was largely dormant. With decline of the party imminent, Parker I split off from the WPS to form the [[Maoist-Worker's Party of Secundomia]] which dissolved both the Coalition and the WPS itself. This seismic shift originating within the WPS established the [[Federation of Secundomian Socialist Republics]].<br />
<br />
== Platform ==<br />
<br />
[[File:SecundomianPoliticalParties.png|thumb|Rough Political Compass graph of Secundomian Political Parties. The WPS is identified in the top left.]]<br />
<br />
The Worker's Party of Secundomia viewed itself as a vanguard party within a Socialist nation. The party officially espoused tenets of [[w:Maoism|Maoism]], specifically [[w:Marxism-Leninism-Maoism]], influenced heavily by the writings of philosopher Joshua Moufawad-Paul. While some leaders were especially persuaded of this ideology, even the leadership of the party was somewhat divided with Antonia advocating a more orthodox approach to Marxism. Additionally, the Marxist-Leninist theory of vanguardism was practiced largely in name only, with the party accepting alliances with liberal-democratic groups like the ASP.<br />
<br />
== Leadership and Membership ==<br />
Jaedon, Antonia and Parker were largely co-equal leaders of the party known as the vanguard committee. All three were the sole members of the party. Seeking to govern themselves via a form of democratic centralism, no member had supremacy over the others and decisions would be made collectively by party leadership.<br />

The '''Maoist-Worker's Party of Secundomia''' or '''MWPS''' is the vanguard political party of the [[Federation of Secundomian Socialist Republics]], as single-party state. The MWPS was created in early 2016 as a takeover and split from the [[Worker's Party of Secundomia]] which had succumbed to inactivity. [[Parker I]] spearheaded the takeover and also the creation of the FSSR under the newly christened Maoist-Worker's Party.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
The MWPS traces its roots back to the earlier Worker's Party of Secundomia. The Worker's Party was founded by [[Jaedon I]] who lead a revolution in the [[Third Kingdom of Secundomia|Kingdom of Secundomia]] to confront Parker I. After Parker's abdication, the Worker's Party became a leader in a coalition with the [[Anti-Sloth Party]]. However, inactivity beset the coalition. On April 30, 2016, Parker I split from the Worker's Party and founded the Maoist-Worker's Party. Seizing power in not only Secundomia but also [[Principality of Sterling|Sterling]] and [[Principality of Tergumterra|Tergumterra]], the MWPS became the dominant force in all three nations, leading to the creation of the [[Secundomian Federation]].<br />
<br />
== Ideology ==<br />
<br />
[[File:SecundomianPoliticalParties.png|thumb|Rough Political Compass graph of Secundomian Political Parties. The MWPS is identified in the top left.]]<br />
<br />
The Maoist-Worker's Party inherited most of its predecessor's ideological leanings. The Party strongly adheres, at least publicly, to [[w:Marxism-Leninism-Maoism|Marxism-Leninism-Maoism]], particularly under the work's of [[w:J. Moufawad-Paul|J. Moufawad-Paul]].<br />
<br />
=== Communist Necessity ===<br />
The core belief of the MWPS is Communist Necessity. Derived from the philosophy of J. Moufawad-Paul, the party believes a Communist future is not just desirable, but is an ethical necessity for the survival of humanity. This belief means the party has no tolerance for anti-communism or reformism and requires absolute power with the nation to ensure this. Necessity was core to the dissolution of the Revolutionary Coalition that lead the Democratic Republic, as ties with the revisionist Anti-Sloth Party were viewed as parasitic to the revolution.<br />
<br />
=== Juche influences ===<br />
The MWPS does not officially ascribe to [[w:Juche|Juche]] the ruling ideology of the [[w:Democratic People's Republic of Korea|DPRK]], however, it has gradually integrated certain beliefs. Parker's leadership has enabled a cultural affiliation to earlier Secundomian parties, such as the [[Secundomian Nationalist Monarchist Party]], which believed in the preservation of the Secundomian nation. This aligns with the Juche concept of self-reliance. Further, unlike the Worker's Party, the MWPS is lead by absolute control of a "Great Leader", a Juche practice. The Worker's Party was organized under the Maoist concept of a mass line. These adherences to Juche have lead the MWPS further from a democratic form of governance towards an absolutist regime.<br />
<br />
== Structure ==<br />
The MWPS is structured hierarchically. All control and power is vested in the Chairperson. Due to the nation's small size, there is no infrastructure for a broader or more inclusive system. Parker I has been the sole chairperson of the party since 2016.<br />

The '''Secundomian National Monarchist Party''' or the '''SNMP''' was a political party in [[Third Kingdom of Secundomia|Secundomia]] which held power briefly in [[2015]] after a coup d'état. The party was lead by King Parker I and espoused principles of dynastic monarchism and nationalism during times of cultural crisis. After the dormancy of the [[Secundomian Conservative Party]] the SNMP was the only political party in the Third Kingdom. The SNMP disbanded after the First August Revolution and the Kings abdication of the throne. <br />
<br />
[[File:SecundomianPoliticalParties.png|thumb|left|Rough Political Compass graph of Secundomian Political Parties. The SNMP is identified in the top right.]]<br />
<br />
== Principles and Ideology == <br />
The SNMP acknowledged that democracy is an important part of a society, however, when a society is at risk of extinction, it must turn to dynastic monarchism in order to evolve and sustain itself. It espoused principles of [[w:Nationalism|Nationalism]] and [[w:Monarchism|Monarchism]] in order to maintain the order of the Secundomian society despite dormancy. The party however, did not claim to be a [[w:Transitional Government|Transitional Government]], and instead claimed it must be the long term leader of the Secundomian society absent a massive change from within. According to King Parker I, that change was fulfilled with the First August Revolution, thus diminishing the need for a monarchial order.<br />
<br />
== Structure == <br />
The party was lead by the [[King of Secundomia|King]], [[Parker I]]. The King was both the spiritual head and the organizer of the party. The Party consisted of and inhabited all branches of government.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
The SNMP was founded during the May 15th Coup during its push to take power. It was formed out of necessity to have a ruling body, rather out of a desire for a competing political party system. After seizing power, Parker I was declared King of Secundomia, and the party occupied all necessary ruling positions. In August 2016, the government folded under pressure of the [[Worker's Party of Secundomia]] lead by Jaedon I. Parker I officially abdicated the throne and left the SNMP, after which the party disbanded and elements were absorbed by the Worker's Party. <br />

The '''Secundomian Libertarian Party '''('''SSAPSA''') was a [[Secundomian]] Political Party founded by Spencer I to carry a party banner in the September 2010 elections. Spencer split from the [[Secundomian Conservative Party]] after again losing its nomination to [[Luke of Secundomia]]. He was the only member of the party.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
=== Foundation ===<br />
The Libertarian Party was founded as "'''Spencer's Super Awesome Party of Super Awesomeness'''" during the [[September 2010 Secundomian Elections]] as a campaign and publicity stunt get [[Spencer I]] elected [[President of Secundomia]] after he failed to be nominated by the Conservative Party. This gambit was largely unsuccessful as Spencer lost much of the Conservative vote to Luke and the independents broke for [[Parker I]] who would go on to win the September elections.<br />
<br />
[[File:SecundomianPoliticalParties.png|thumb|Rough Political Compass graph of Secundomian Political Parties. The SSAPSA is identified in the bottom right.]]<br />
<br />
=== Later Elections ===<br />
The SSAPSA was renamed the Secundomian Libertarian Party for the November 2010 Elections. The party maintained the SSAPSA acronym to prevent confusion with the [[Secundomian Liberal Party]]. Despite this reorganization, the party was still unsuccessful in gaining support in November, nominating Spencer I once again for president. However, in [[2011 Secundomian Elections|2011]] Spencer began to see a rise in the polls after Parker's struggles to maintain an active electorate. Spencer was favored in 2011 but lost to Parker by 1 vote. After the 2011 elections the SSAPSA became dormant as an opposition party. Spencer was largely inactive in Secundomia in the coming years, thus so were the Libertarians.<br />
<br />
== Ideology ==<br />
<br />
The SSAPSA had little difference in terms of political ideology with the Conservative Party. The SSAPSA espoused conservative and libertarian beliefs. In Secundomian politics the party was largely against the power exercised by Parker and Luke after the July elections, forming an important opposition to the Conservatives.<br />

The '''Eutopian Party''' was a [[Republic of Secundomia|Secundomian]] and [[Voitokas|Voitokan]] political party founded by [[H of Halstopia]] to support a presidential bid in the [[Secundomian presidential election, December 2009|December 2009 Secundomian elections]]. The Eutopian party was the first political party in Secundomia, all other candidates in the 2009 election process ran as independents. <br />
<br />
== Etymology ==<br />
<br />
The "Eutopian Party" is a mix of "Europe" and "Utopian," meant to reflect the party's commitment to European-style progressive values and achieving utopia in micronationalism. H revealed that Eutopia was a name also considered for the defunct state of [[Halstopia]].<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
After the [[Halstopian Coup d'état]], H was barred by American forces from joining Secundomia as a citizen. H decided he would run for the Secudomian presidency anyway as a non-citizen, thus becoming the first candidate for the December 2009 Secundomian elections. At the time Secundomia had not settled on a name so he announced his candidacy for president of Secundomia-[[Republic of Skillz|Skillz]] for the "newly formed Eutopian Party." <ref>Secundomian email database - "Micronation thread"</ref> H also claimed to have picked a running mate but didn't reveal their name to the public.<ref>Secundomian email database - "A question." Dec 16th</ref><br />
<br />
[[File:SecundomianPoliticalParties.png|thumb|Rough Political Compass graph of Secundomian Political Parties. The EP is identified near the center.]]<br />
<br />
One week after the founding of the Eutopian Party, co-consuls [[Parker I]] and [[Spencer I]] released the final draft of the [[Secundomian Constitution]]. This document limited Secundomian presidency to only citizens of the micronation, thus eliminating H's bid to run for president unless he submitted another application for citizenship.<ref>[[Secundomian Constitution]]</ref> H was unable to apply, fearing retaliation from the mercenaries who conducted the Halstopian coup. <br />
<br />
After discovering news of his ineligibility, H blocked Parker's email and covertly started the nation of [[Voitokas]], hiding the micronation from both Secundomia and the American mercenaries. H remained a member of the Eutopian Party in Voitokas, becoming the dominant political force in the nation.<ref>[[Finland Project]] intelligence</ref><br />
<br />
== Ideology ==<br />
<br />
The Eutopian Party never officially release a policy platform but rather was a vehicle for the political ambitions of H of Halstopia. H was a committed progressive liberal and was a noted supporter of the Obama administration in the United States.<ref>Secundomian email database.</ref> The Eutopian Party thus represented a progressive version of neoliberal politics and was similar to the Democratic Party in the US. The Eutopian Party was both a forerunner for and was allied with the [[Secundomian Liberal Party]]. Although Liberal Party leader [[Seth I]] was never a member of the Eutopian Party in Secundomia, he was a member of the Voitokan branch.<ref>[[Finland Project]] intelligence publicly released by the [[Secundomian Intelligence Agency]].</ref><br />

The '''Secundomian Liberal Party''' (SLP) was a short-lived center-left political party in Secundomia. Despite its short life and lack of electoral success, the SLP was a significant voice for liberals in the country that left a staggering political void and a long period of political domination by its rival, the [[Secundomian Conservative Party]].<br />
==History==<br />
The Liberal party was founded by [[Seth I]] governor of [[Leospecsia]]. He was the only member.<ref>Secundomian Email Server - Weekend Secundomian Announcement Cabinet Status, Territory, Elections, Meeting - Reply by Seth I, 22 Mar 2010</ref> The SLP had been largely inactive during its early days. They did not nominated a candidate for president of Secundomia until March. Seth I says he would rather "other people lead", but he did not want to "join the conservatives."[[File:SecLibParty.png|thumb|Logo of the Secundomian Liberal Party]]<br />
===March 2010 Elections===<br />
The SLP nominated [[Seth I]] for president and Citizens Council in the [[March 2010 Secundomian Elections]]. His presidential campaign was largely hamstrung by his bid for Citizens Council and struggled to gain traction. He successfully ran for Citizens Council and assumed his office shortly after, making him the first and only candidate elected to national office for the Liberal Party. <br />
===Cabinet Crisis===<br />
The leadership of the SLP was strongly opposed to the partisan fights in the April Cabinet Crisis. The liberals had no representation in the national Cabinet and the crisis was largely an internal affair for the Conservatives. The SLP did not see any opportunity from this, however and viewed Secundomia as largely irredeemable.<ref>Secundomian Email Server - Secundomia - email sent by Seth I 18 Apr 2010</ref> Seth I left his position on the Citizens Council and as leader of the SLP.<br />
==Liberalism in Secundomia==<br />
All major political parties in Secundomia prior to the rise of the [[Third Kingdom of Secundomia|Third Kingdom]] largely shared a liberal political outlook. After Seth I left Secundomia a large gap was left for independent liberals who were not members of the party. Most liberals either joined the [[Secundomian Conservative Party|Conservative Party]] or remained independent (and largely politically inactive). Voter rolls showed that a large percentage of liberal independents did not turn out to vote in Secundomia's elections, and those who did usually voted for the Conservative nominee. <br />
<br />
[[File:SecundomianPoliticalParties.png|thumb|left|Rough Political Compass graph of Secundomian Political Parties. The SLP is identified near the center.]]<br />
<br />
As Secundomia [[Eranian Secundomia|fell into inactivity]], most of the independent liberals left the country. With the founding of the [[Democratic Republic of Secundomia]] dominated by the far-left [[Worker's Party of Secundomia|Worker's Party]], the leading liberal voice was left to the social democratic [[Anti-Sloth Party]] lead by Brennan I. The influence of liberals gradually waned and Secundomia became a single-party state lead by the [[Maoist-Worker's Party of Secundomia|MWPS]].<br />

'''Jaedon I''' was a [[Secundomian People|Secundomian]] politician who played a key role in the foundation of the [[Democratic Republic of Secundomia]] in 2015. Jaedon brought far-left politics to Secundomia for the first time, founding the [[Worker's Party of Secundomia]] and leading the Worker's Movement that overthrew the [[Third Kingdom of Secundomia]] in a bloodless revolution. After King [[Parker I]] acceded to the movement, Jaedon was elected President of the Worker's Party and became a part of the leadership in the Democratic Republic. <br />
<br />
== Personal life ==<br />
Jaedon and Parker met in college where they were classmates. Jaedon was a politically active student on campus and introduced Parker to left-wing political organizing. <br />
<br />
==Micronational history==<br />
In August 2015, Jaedon and [[Parker I]], [[King of Secundomia]], met on the college campus where they were attending. Parker introduced Jaedon to the concept of micronationalism and invited Jaedon to join the [[Third Kingdom of Secundomia|Kingdom of Secundomia]]. Shortly after, Jaedon and a cadre of other activists approached Parker under the banner of the Worker's Movement. The movement demanded the King's abdication and transfer of Secundomia to a socialist form of government. <br />
<br />
After Parker's accession to these demands, Jaedon was elected President of the new [[Worker's Party of Secundomia]]. As the WPS had 3 of the 4 seats on the Worker's Committee, he exerted significant control over the country. However, due mostly to obligations at college, the Democratic Republic soon fell into dormancy. Parker I decided to seize full control of the nation again in April 2016, ending Jaedon's leadership with another transition into the [[Maoist-Worker's Party of Secundomia|Maoist-Worker's Party]]<br />

'''Nate I''' is a [[Secundomian People|Secundomian]] and [[Skillzian]] micronationalist, general and jurist. An early active figure in the [[Secundomian Sector]], Nate was instrumental in the foundation of the [[Republic of Skillz]] and [[Republic of Secundomia|Secundomia]]. An innovator and designer in Secundomian society, Nate was best known for designing the Secundomian flag. They were also an accomplished attorney and had notable service in the [[Secundomian Military|Secundomian Army]]. <br />
<br />
== Personal life ==<br />
Nate was a close friend of [[Spencer I]] at school. In the years after the heights of Secundomian activity, Nate was one of the few to retain close contact with [[Parker I]] and Spencer, attending the same high school in the United States. Outside of micronationalism, Nate actively played soccer and produced electronic music. <br />
<br />
==Micronational history==<br />
===Republic of Skillz===<br />
On December 14, 2009, Nate's friend Spencer arrived at school with a plan to form a micronation. Spencer and Nate, together with [[Phineas Snow]] and a few other friends, banded together to form the [[Republic of Skillz]]. Spencer was elected president and appointed Nate as Vice-President of the young nation. <br />
<br />
Trouble was not far, however. Another nation, formed by Spencer's brother [[Parker I|Parker]] called the [[Kingdom of Secundomia]] formed the next day and [[Secundomian-Skillz War|declared war]] on Skillz. The external threat of war alongside boiling internal divisions resulted in the surrender collapse of Skillz on December 15. Nate and Spencer were the only two of the nation still interested in micronationalism and sought peace with Secundomia.<br />
<br />
===Republic of Secundomia===<br />
Nate I was one of the original three members of Secundomia when Skillz merged with the Kingdom. In the early days of the country, they were largely inactive. In February 2010, they created Secundomia's national flag, which remained as a core symbol of Secundomian Culture through the [[Federation of Secundomian Socialist Republics|FSSR]].<ref>Secundomian Email Server - Flag, sent by Nate I 25 Feb 2010</ref> Nate I also created the state of [[Lower Secundomia]] during this time.<ref>Secundomian Email Server - Nate's State, sent by Nate I 25 Feb 2010</ref> They would remain governor of the state throughout its existence. <br />
<br />
Nate was a culturally influential Secundomian, known for designing a monument and the country's flag. They worked as a journalist for [[Secundomian Media]]. They were also an active member on the Secundomian Forums, unlike many other Secundomians in late 2010.<ref>Secundomian Email Server - Forum Report 18 Jan 2011</ref> Nate<br />
====Cabinet Crisis====<br />
After being inactive since the Golden Days (aside from a brief stint as Director of Development in Parker I's cabinet), Nate I arose to defend the Protest Group and it's leaders, [[Ibrahim I]] and [[Rahim I]]. They pressured the president to pardon Ibrahim I from his actions (swearing on official Secundomian discussions), and lead the citizens against the president. The president at the time, Parker I, backed down from the charges in the landmark trial of Ibrahim I. Nate I continued to defend the protest group, until Rahim I was exiled in a second trial.<br />
====Military Service====<br />
Nate I was appointed as General of the Secundomian Army by President [[Luke of Secundomia|Luke]] in August 2010. In October, they were replaced by [[Phineas Snow]] and moved to the Cabinet role of Secretary of Development during the second Parker I administration. In this capacity, he also served as General of Military Development for the [[Secundomian Military]] as a whole. They remained in this role, although mostly inactive, until 2012. <br />
<br />
====Politics====<br />
Nate was a member of the [[Secundomian Conservative Party]]. They were a member of the party's left wing and often expressed indifference or disagreement to the tenets of the main party. However, the SCP was significantly more powerful than any other political force at the time, so they decided to join it.<ref>2011 Conservative Party election database</ref> They were on multiple occasions an advocate for direct democracy over representative democracy, which further put them at odds with party leadership.<ref>Secundomian Email Server - NEW CONSTITUTION - Reply by Nate I, 17 Jan 2011</ref><ref>Secundomian Email Server - Secundomia - sent by Nate I, 31 March 2010</ref><br />

'''Nate I''' is a [[Secundomian]] and [[Skillzian]] micronationalist, general and jurist. An early active figure in the [[Secundomian Sector]], Nate was instrumental in the foundation of the [[Republic of Skillz]] and [[Republic of Secundomia|Secundomia]]. An innovator and designer in Secundomian society, Nate was best known for designing the Secundomian flag. He was also an accomplished attorney and had notable service in the [[Secundomian Military|Secundomian Army]]. <br />
<br />
== Personal life ==<br />
Nate was a close friend of [[Spencer I]] at school. In the years after the heights of Secundomian activity, Nate was one of the few to retain close contact with Parker I, attending the same high school in the United States. Outside of micronationalism, Nate actively played soccer and produced electronic music. <br />
<br />
==Micronational history==<br />
===Republic of Skillz===<br />
On December 14, 2009, Nate's friend Spencer arrived at school with a plan to form a micronation. Spencer and Nate, together with [[Phineas Snow]] and a few other friends, banded together to form the [[Republic of Skillz]]. Spencer was elected president and appointed Nate as Vice-President of the young nation. <br />
<br />
Trouble was not far, however. Another nation, formed by Spencer's brother [[Parker I|Parker]] called the [[Kingdom of Secundomia]] formed the next day and [[Secundomian-Skillz War|declared war]] on Skillz. The external threat of war alongside boiling internal divisions resulted in the surrender collapse of Skillz on December 15. Nate and Spencer were the only two of the nation still interested in micronationalism and sought peace with Secundomia.<br />
<br />
===Republic of Secundomia===<br />
Nate I was one of the original three members of Secundomia when Skillz merged with the Kingdom. In the early days of the country, he was largely inactive. In February 2010, he created Secundomia's national flag, which remained as a core symbol of Secundomian Culture through the [[Federation of Secundomian Socialist Republics|FSSR]].<ref>Secundomian Email Server - Flag, sent by Nate I 25 Feb 2010</ref> Nate I also created the state of [[Lower Secundomia]] during this time.<ref>Secundomian Email Server - Nate's State, sent by Nate I 25 Feb 2010</ref> He would remain governor of the state throughout its existence. <br />
<br />
Nate was a culturally influential Secundomian, known for designing a monument and the country's flag. He worked as a journalist for [[Secundomian Media]]. He was also an active member on the Secundomian Forums, unlike many other Secundomians in late 2010.<ref>Secundomian Email Server - Forum Report 18 Jan 2011</ref> Nate<br />
====Cabinet Crisis====<br />
After being inactive since the Golden Days (aside from a brief stint as Director of Development in Parker I's cabinet), Nate I arose to defend the Protest Group and it's leaders, [[Ibrahim I]] and [[Rahim I]]. He pressured the president to pardon Ibrahim I from his actions (swearing on official Secundomian discussions), and lead the citizens against the president. The president at the time, Parker I, backed down from the charges in the landmark trial of Ibrahim I. Nate I continued to defend the protest group, until Rahim I was exiled in a second trial.<br />
====Military Service====<br />
Nate I was appointed as General of the Secundomian Army by President [[Luke of Secundomia|Luke]] in August 2010. In October, he was replaced by [[Phineas Snow]] and moved to the Cabinet role of Secretary of Development during the second Parker I administration. In this capacity, he also served as General of Military Development for the [[Secundomian Military]] as a whole. He remained in this role, although mostly inactive, until 2012. <br />
<br />
====Politics====<br />
Nate was a member of the [[Secundomian Conservative Party]]. He was a member of the party's left wing and often expressed indifference or disagreement to the tenets of the main party. However, the SCP was significantly more powerful than any other political force at the time, so he decided to join it.<ref>2011 Conservative Party election database</ref> He was on multiple occasions an advocate for direct democracy over representative democracy, which further put him at odds with party leadership.<ref>Secundomian Email Server - NEW CONSTITUTION - Reply by Nate I, 17 Jan 2011</ref><ref>Secundomian Email Server - Secundomia - sent by Nate I, 31 March 2010</ref><br />

The '''Skillzians''' (''skill-SHUNS'') are a group of micronationalists who were involved in the short lived [[Republic of Skillz]]. Skillzians have significant crossover with [[Secundomians]], and while two Skillz citizens were founding members of the [[Republic of Secundomia]], a large portion of them joined the country later. <br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
The Republic of Skillz was a micronation that existed for 2 days in December 2009. The nation was founded by [[Spencer I]], who was elected President. He invited several of his friends from school to join. Each person was given a role in the government. [[Nate I]] was appointed Vice President and [[Phineas Snow]] was appointed to their fledgling Department of Defense. Other members included future Secundomian [[Ibrahim I]] and Ben of Skillz. A sixth member was present, but his name was not kept. <br />
<br />
Ben of Skillz, the only prominent Skillzian who never joined Secundomia, lead a group of Skillzians to leave the country only a day after its founding. Only [[Nate I]] would remain with [[Spencer I]] and the republic functionally ceased to exist. Combined with the threat of war from the [[Kingdom of Secundomia]], Nate and Spencer decided to join their adversary instead, forming the basis of the [[Republic of Secundomia]]. Ibrahim and Phineas would later join and become important figures in Secundomian society.<br />

The '''Republic of Skillz''' was a short-lived [[Boodlesmythe-Tallini System of Classification|6th world]] micronation that was created on December 14, 2009. The government collapsed on December 15, 2009, and its remnants merged with the [[First Kingdom of Secundomia]] to create the [[Republic of Secundomia]].<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
{{Main|History of Secundomia}}<br />
===Origins===<br />
The Republic of Skillz traces its origins to just one day before its creation. On December 13, 2009 Parker I and Spencer I discussed the founding of a micronation after researching them online. Both resolved to create a micronation, and Spencer did the next day.<br />
===Creation===<br />
[[Spencer I]], in elementary school at the time, spoke to his friends on the playground about the creation of a micronation on December 14, 2009. They banded together to form a rudimentary government. Future Secundomian citizens were involved in the original government. Spencer I was quickly elected president, and [[Nate I]] was elected vice president. Future Secundomian Director of Architecture [[Phineas I]] was elected to the Department of Defense. Other citizens were involved, including notably [[Ibrahim I]], but their names and/or positions have been forgotten.<br />
<br />
===War and Collapse===<br />
After he returned home, Spencer and Parker spoke about the government of the micronation, a short dispute over Spencer's presidency lead Parker I to create the [[Kingdom of Secundomia]] on the next day. The Kingdom declared war on Skillz, although Skillz did not yet respond, as the government was going through a crisis. Disinterest grounded many of the citizens of Skillz, and many of the original citizens, including [[Phineas I]], left Skillz. Only Spencer I and Nate I remained in the nation. A truce was quickly reached with the Kingdom of Secundomia. <br />
===Merger===<br />
[[Spencer I]] and [[Nate I]] were the lone members of the Skillz Remnants. Without a citizenry or an official government, they went on seeking for others to join a future nation. The Kingdom of Secundomia and Spencer I entered negotiations, and resolved to create an unnamed "Micronation Republic" that ultimately became the [[Republic of Secundomia]]. The initial members were Nate, Spencer and Parker, leaving many to claim that Nate was a founder of Secundomia, although he was not involved in negotiations.<br />
== Government ==<br />
The Republic of Skillz had an unstable government that quickly collapsed. The government was doomed to failure by disinterest of the citizenry. [[Spencer I]] was the nation's president, with [[Nate I]] as the vice president. The led the nation with a council of citizens respective to them, each with their own job. Although much of the council's names were lost to time, one is known to be future Secundomian architect [[Phineas I]] who took on the position of the Department of Defense. [[Ibrahim I]] was also in the council, although his position is unknown, his brother [[Rahim I|Rahim]] was notably not a part of Skillz. <br />

'''Atlan''' (officially the '''Empire of Atlan''') is a [[One man nation|one-woman micronation]] in the [[Secundomian Sector]] that reached its prominence during late 2009 and early 2010. Officially never disbanded, Atlan was at times considered a part of [[Republic of Secundomia|Secundomia]] and at other times an independent nation. Despite some disputes with the nation of Secundomia, Atlan was their closest regional ally and especially supported the leadership of [[Parker I]], oft-skeptical or isolationist when the nation was lead by others. The nation had some fantasy elements but details about its internal workings were often unclear and secretive even to those close by. Most of what is known of the nation arises from its interactions with Secundomia in 2010. <br />
<br />
== Etymology ==<br />
The true meaning of the name "Atlan" is not known, Secundomian speculation considers its similarity to the name of the Atlantic Ocean. The name was first referred to as early as December 15, 2009.<ref name=random>Gmail conversation between Erised and Parker I, "random thoughts" 15 December 2009</ref><br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
=== Foundation ===<br />
The precise foundation of Atlan is uncertain. Erised had been writing fictitious versions of a country for years but had not made any public proclamations of an Empire. Shortly after the foundation of the [[Kingdom of Secundomia]], Erised referred to herself as "Empress of Atlan" as early as December 15, 2009.<ref name=random /> With the [[Secundomian Micronational Boom]] in full effect, the Empire of Atlan was introduced to a thriving, yet extraordinarily unstable community of new micronationalists. <br />

<br />
=== Secession from Secundomia === <br />
<br />
The Empire of Atlan, as recognized by members of the [[Secundomian Sector]], was formed due to the secession of a [[Secundomia]]n state by the name of Atlan in December 2009. Atlan officially seceded during a conflict over the presidency between [[Parker I]] and [[Luke of Secundomia]]. The [[Empress of Atlan]] criticized the electoral process as "silly" prior to making her secession as a citizen. She proclaimed "Atlan needs me, and I have been neglecting my duties."<ref name=vpi>Secundomian Email thread - Vote Parker I - Reply by Erised.</ref> She also threatened to declare war on Secundomia if she was not removed from email threads.<ref>Secundomian email thread - Countdown to presidency. Email from Erised. 28 Dec 2009</ref> These threats were quickly dismissed and Erised was removed from all Secundomian email threads. A short summit between the leaders on the 29th of December cooled remaining tensions. <br />
<br />
=== 2010 ===<br />
Shortly after the formation of Atlan the nation went into dormancy, despite efforts of diplomacy from Secundomia. The Empire did not go through any major changes until March 2010. On a joint intermicronational state visit to the capital of Kansas, Secundomian Director of Foreign Affairs [[Parker I]] encouraged Erised to rejuvenate the country. During this time Atlan received its first official flag, drawn by the Empress. The flag was based upon the Secundomian flag (which was in turn based on the Empire of Japan's flag), but featured a small object in the center that appeared to be a blob with eyes and legs. The flag was not drawn with any official colors as it was doodled with a pencil on a piece of paper. <br />
<br />
Erised rejoined Secundomia in April 2010. Due to her dual citizenship, Atlan played a role in the [[Cabinet Crisis]] in 2010 by supporting the Secundomian Government under [[Parker I]]. A secondary dispute arose shortly after, when Atlan was drawn on a map of Secundomian states. Erised disputed that Atlan had ever joined despite her personal citizenship. Secundomian leadership agreed to recognize Atlan's independence in late April, although leaving some land to Secundomia as Nottingham. After this period Atlan returned to dormancy, and, as it failed to establish foreign ties, has not been referenced by any foreign or internal text since. The [[Secundomian Federation]] considers Atlan extant but inactive.<br />
<br />
== Politics ==<br />
Atlan is an absolute monarchy lead by an [[Empress of Atlan|Empress]]. Atlan was proud of their status as a Monarchy. Erised touted the efficiency of an absolutist form of government while ridiculing the Secundomian democracy as "silly, partisan elections." <ref name=vpi /><br />
<br />
== Economy ==<br />
Unlike its neighbor Secundomia, Atlan had a flourishing state run economy. The nation exported a significant amount of hand-fabricated monster dolls made by Erised herself. Atlan was extremely proud of this industry and a rough depiction of the doll is shown on the Atlanian flag. <br />
<br />
== Foreign Relations ==<br />
Atlan conducted limited foreign relations within the [[Secundomian Sector]]. Atlan was close to Secundomia and their leaders had multiple in-person summits to conduct diplomatic relations, including an official multi-state visit to the capital of Kansas. However, Atlan was relatively isolationist otherwise. There are no records of Atlanian officials reaching out to other nations beyond the sector. Atlan was never active on MicroWiki or any other online platform and solely conducted relations through Secundomia. <br />
<br />
== Geography ==<br />
<br />
[[File:Secsecmap.png|thumb|Rough map of the [[Secundomian Sector]] including Atlan (pink)]]<br />
<br />
Atlan was secretive about their territorial claims, even with their neighbor Secundomia. This lead to occasional border and sovereignty disputes with surrounding countries, although these were always resolved diplomatically. At times, Atlan claimed to be in fantasy territory, but Secundomian records generally suggest it consisted of a brick-and-mortar territory bordering [[Leospecsia]] to the south and [[Middle Secundomia]] to the north. After the secession of Leospecsia from Secundomia, Atlan now bordered the United States to its south. <br />
<br />
== Demographics ==<br />
Atlan consisted of only one known citizen and other potentially fantasy citizens. Exact statistics are lost to time in Secundomian archives. The sole confirmed citizen was a white Christian female, also known demographically as a [[Secundomian]]. <br />

Officially never disbanded, Atlan was at times considered a part of [[Republic of Secundomia|Secundomia]] and at other times an independent nation. Despite some disputes with the nation of Secundomia, Atlan was their closest regional ally and especially supported the leadership of [[Parker I]], oft-skeptical or isolationist when the nation was lead by others. The nation had some fantasy elements but details about its internal workings were often unclear and secretive even to those close by. Most of what is known of the nation arises from its interactions with Secundomia in 2010. <br />
<br />
== Etymology ==<br />
The true meaning of the name "Atlan" is not known, Secundomian speculation considers its similarity to the name of the Atlantic Ocean. The name was first referred to as early as December 15, 2009.<ref name=random>Gmail conversation between Erised and Parker I, "random thoughts" 15 December 2009</ref><br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
=== Foundation ===<br />
The precise foundation of Atlan is uncertain. Erised had been writing fictitious versions of a country for years but had not made any public proclamations of an Empire. Shortly after the foundation of the [[Kingdom of Secundomia]], Erised referred to herself as "Empress of Atlan" as early as December 15, 2009.<ref name=random /> With the [[Secundomian Micronational Boom]] in full effect, the Empire of Atlan was introduced to a thriving, yet extraordinarily unstable community of new micronationalists. <br />
<br />

Erised claims that Atlan was never truly subject to Secundomian leadership and was always a separate nation, but this Parker disputed this claim. Logbook reports show some unclarity with Erised's state being listed as "Atlan?"<ref name=logbook /> Every Secundomian at the time (with the exception of Spencer I who lived in Middle Secundomia) was granted leadership of a state, however Erised never swore fealty as an official of the Empire. <br />
<br />
=== Secession from Secundomia === <br />
<br />
The Empire of Atlan, as recognized by members of the [[Secundomian Sector]], was formed due to the secession of a [[Secundomia]]n state by the name of Atlan in December 2009. Atlan officially seceded during a conflict over the presidency between [[Parker I]] and [[Luke of Secundomia]]. The [[Empress of Atlan]] criticized the electoral process as "silly" prior to making her secession as a citizen. She proclaimed "Atlan needs me, and I have been neglecting my duties."<ref name=vpi>Secundomian Email thread - Vote Parker I - Reply by Erised.</ref> She also threatened to declare war on Secundomia if she was not removed from email threads.<ref>Secundomian email thread - Countdown to presidency. Email from Erised. 28 Dec 2009</ref> These threats were quickly dismissed and Erised was removed from all Secundomian email threads. A short summit between the leaders on the 29th of December cooled remaining tensions. <br />
<br />
=== 2010 ===<br />
Shortly after the formation of Atlan the nation went into dormancy, despite efforts of diplomacy from Secundomia. The Empire did not go through any major changes until March 2010. On a joint intermicronational state visit to the capital of Kansas, Secundomian president [[Parker I]] encouraged Erised to rejuvenate the country. During this time Atlan received its first official flag, drawn by the Empress. The flag was based upon the Secundomian flag (which was in turn based on the Empire of Japan's flag), but featured a small object in the center that appeared to be a blob with eyes and legs. The flag was not drawn with any official colors as it was doodled with a pencil on a piece of paper. <br />
<br />
Erised rejoined Secundomia in April 2010. Due to her dual citizenship, Atlan played a role in the [[Cabinet Crisis]] in 2010 by supporting the Secundomian Government under [[Parker I]]. A secondary dispute arose shortly after, when Atlan was drawn on a map of Secundomian states. Erised disputed that Atlan had ever joined despite her personal citizenship. Secundomian leadership agreed to recognize Atlan's independence in late April, although leaving some land to Secundomia as Nottingham. After this period Atlan returned to dormancy, and, as it failed to establish foreign ties, has not been referenced by any foreign or internal text since.<br />
<br />
== Politics ==<br />
Atlan is an absolute monarchy lead by an [[Empress of Atlan|Empress]]. Atlan was proud of their status as a Monarchy. Erised touted the efficiency of an absolutist form of government while ridiculing the Secundomian democracy as "silly, partisan elections." <ref name=vpi /><br />
<br />
== Economy ==<br />
Unlike its neighbor Secundomia, Atlan had a flourishing state run economy. The nation exported a significant amount of hand-fabricated monster dolls made by Erised herself. Atlan was extremely proud of this industry and a rough depiction of the doll is shown on the Atlanian flag. <br />
<br />
== Foreign Relations ==<br />
Atlan conducted limited foreign relations within the [[Secundomian Sector]]. Atlan was close to Secundomia and their leaders had multiple in-person summits to conduct diplomatic relations, including an official multi-state visit to the capital of Kansas. However, Atlan was relatively isolationist otherwise. There are no records of Atlanian officials reaching out to other nations beyond the sector. Atlan was never active on MicroWiki or any other online platform and solely conducted relations through Secundomia. <br />
<br />
== Geography ==<br />
<br />
[[File:Secsecmap.png|thumb|Rough map of the [[Secundomian Sector]] including Atlan (pink)]]<br />
<br />
Atlan was secretive about their territorial claims, even with their neighbor Secundomia. This lead to occasional border and sovereignty disputes with surrounding countries, although these were always resolved diplomatically. At times, Atlan claimed to be in fantasy territory, but Secundomian records generally suggest it consisted of a brick-and-mortar territory bordering [[Leospecsia]] to the south and [[Middle Secundomia]] to the north. After the secession of Leospecsia from Secundomia, Atlan now bordered the United States to its south. <br />
<br />
== Demographics ==<br />
Atlan consisted of only one known citizen and other potentially fantasy citizens. Exact statistics are lost to time in Secundomian archives. The sole confirmed citizen was a white Christian female, also known demographically as a [[Secundomian]]. <br />

<br />
The Empire of Atlan, as recognized by members of the [[Secundomian Sector]], was formed due to the secession of a [[Secundomia]]n state by the name of Atlan in December 2009. Atlan officially seceded during a conflict over the presidency between [[Parker I]] and [[Luke of Secundomia]]. The [[Empress of Atlan]] criticized the electoral process as "silly" prior to making her secession as a citizen. She proclaimed "Atlan needs me, and I have been neglecting my duties."<ref name=vpi>Secundomian Email thread - Vote Parker I - Reply by Erised.</ref> She also threatened to declare war on Secundomia if she was not removed from email threads.<ref>Secundomian email thread - Countdown to presidency. Email from Erised. 28 Dec 2009</ref><br />
=== 2010 ===<br />
Shortly after the formation of Atlan the nation went into dormancy, despite efforts of diplomacy from Secundomia. The Empire did not go through any major changes until March 2010. During this time Atlan received its first official flag, drawn by the Empress. The flag was based upon the Secundomian flag (which was in turn based on the Empire of Japan's flag), but featured a small object in the center that appeared to be a blob with eyes and legs. The flag was not drawn with any official colors. <br />
<br />
=== Rejoining and Return to Independence ===<br />
Atlan rejoined Secundomia in April 2010. Atlan played a role in the [[Cabinet Crisis]] in 2010 by supporting the Secundomian Government under [[Parker I]]. Atlan, however, returned to independence in late April, although leaving some land to Secundomia, as the "State of Atlan." After this period Atlan returned to dormancy, and, as it failed to establish foreign ties, has not been referenced by any foreign or internal text since.<br />
<br />
== Politics ==<br />
Atlan is an absolute monarchy lead by an [[Empress of Atlan|Empress]]. Atlan was proud of their status as a Monarchy. Erised touted the efficiency of an absolutist form of government while ridiculing the Secundomian democracy as "silly, partisan elections." <ref name=vpi /><br />
<br />
== Economy ==<br />
Unlike its neighbor Secundomia, Atlan had a flourishing state run economy. The nation exported a significant amount of hand-fabricated monster dolls made by Erised herself. Atlan was extremely proud of this industry and a rough depiction of the doll is shown on the Atlanian flag. <br />
<br />
== Foreign Relations ==<br />
Atlan conducted limited foreign relations within the [[Secundomian Sector]]. Atlan was close to Secundomia and their leaders had multiple in-person summits to conduct diplomatic relations, including an official multi-state visit to the capital of Kansas. However, Atlan was relatively isolationist otherwise. There are no records of Atlanian officials reaching out to other nations beyond the sector. Atlan was never active on MicroWiki or any other online platform and solely conducted relations through Secundomia. <br />
<br />
== Geography ==<br />
<br />
[[File:Secsecmap.png|thumb|Rough map of the [[Secundomian Sector]] including Atlan (pink)]]<br />
<br />
Atlan was secretive about their territorial claims, even with their neighbor Secundomia. This lead to occasional border and sovereignty disputes with surrounding countries, although these were always resolved diplomatically. At times, Atlan claimed to be in fantasy territory, but Secundomian records generally suggest it consisted of a brick-and-mortar territory bordering [[Leospecsia]] to the south and [[Middle Secundomia]] to the north. After the secession of Leospecsia from Secundomia, Atlan now bordered the United States to its south. <br />
<br />
== Demographics ==<br />
Atlan consisted of only one known citizen and other potentially fantasy citizens. Exact statistics are lost to time in Secundomian archives. The sole confirmed citizen was a white Christian female, also known demographically as a [[Secundomian]]. <br />

'''Atlan''' (officially the '''Empire of Atlan''') is a [[One man nation|one-woman micronation]] in the [[Secundomian Sector]] that reached its prominence during late 2009 and early 2010. Officially never disbanded, Atlan was at times considered a part of [[Republic of Secundomia|Secundomia]] and at other times an independent nation. Despite some disputes with the nation of Secundomia, Atlan was their closest regional ally and especially supported the leadership of [[Parker I]], oft-skeptical or isolationist when the nation was lead by others.

'''Erised, Empress of Atlan''', known occasionally only as '''Erised''', '''Lil''', '''NJ''' or solely '''The Empress of Atlan''', is the monarch and sole citizen of [[Atlan]]. She was also a prominent and powerful citizen in the [[Republic of Secundomia]]. She was the first Secundomian woman to hold a position in the cabinet as Secretary of the Treasury during the Spencer I administration and Director of National Parks and Environmental Development under Parker I. She was also the first female congressperson in Secundomia as a [[Secundomian Congress|citizen's councilor]].<br />
<br />
== Personal life ==<br />
Erised was quite private about her personal life. In early discussions about Secundomia she made clear to separate her personal life from micronational politics. During election cycles the Secundomian email chains could often get vitriolic and overly personal, a fact which resulted in her departure in late 2009. <br />
<br />
== Micronational History ==<br />
<br />
=== Founding of Secundomia ===<br />
Erised was the fifth citizen to join the burgeoning Republic of Secundomia on December 16, 2009. She played a part in the still unnamed Republic's foundation, nominating "Coverla" for the country's name amongst others. Newly uncovered documents show that she also suggested several other names which did not make the final ballot: "Marith, Demira, Kiruna, Anghara, and Ispan."<ref>"Micronation thread"</ref> Coverla only received one vote and was quickly removed from the running. <br />
<br />
=== 2009 Elections and Secession of Atlan ===<br />
Erised withdrew her citizenship during conflicts leading up to the [[December 2009 Secundomian Elections]]. Atlan announced it's separation on December 23, 2009 with the Empress criticizing the democratic process of the Republic, favoring the monarchist government of her own nation. She said as a part of her announcement "Atlan needs me, and I have been neglecting my duties. fortunately, we do not have these silly elections."<ref>"Vote Parker I" email thread</ref> A delay in her removal from notifications about the Secundomian election lead to tensions between the newly separate countries. Erised threatened war on December 28: "Atlan needs me, and if I and not out of this group by tonight, I will declare war on you!" This conflict was shortly resolved through intergovernmental negotiations before the turn of the year, a summit between the leaders of Secundomia and Atlan ensued on December 29.<br />
<br />
=== Return to Secundomia and Atlanian Politics ===<br />
Erised applied for citizenship in Secundomia on February 25, 2010, after a second summit between leaders. Her return was swiftly approved. Tensions returned on February 26, causing concern of a potential intermicronational conflict or civil war. Tensions arose as a result of a census taken by Parker I of different governors and states within Secundomia, sparking a territorial dispute when Atlan was named a state. This dispute was resolved by re-clarification of Erised as a dual citizen of both Secundomia and Atlan. The territorial overlap of the two countries was never clarified (some records imply that Atlan contained no physical territory). Atlan was last mentioned in Secundomian records in August 2010, when brought up during a meeting of the Citizens Council by Erised. <br />
<br />
=== Secretariat in Spencer I Administration ===<br />
In March 2010 Erised was appointed Secretary of the Treasury by President [[Spencer I]]. This marked her first official office within the executive branch of Secundomia and set a new standard in the country as the first female in office. Spencer initially appointed her Secretary of Development, but was replaced by [[Nate I]] and moved to the Treasury department. On March 12 she was replaced momentarily as Secretary of the Treasury by [[Rahim I]], but returned to office later that day after negations between cabinet members. On March 22 she was removed from office due to inactivity and replaced by Rahim once again. <br />
<br />
=== Cabinet Crisis ===<br />
Erised played a key role in the [[Cabinet Crisis]] in April of Secundomia. She came to prominence in the crisis during the later stages of the [[Trial of Ibrahim I]]. She criticized the position of [[Luke of Secundomia]] that both sides of the crisis were in the wrong and was the most prominent citizen to offer support to President [[Parker I]] during the period. Her public support was met with accusations of conspiracy and personal attacks from Protest group leaders [[Ibrahim I]] and [[Rahim I]]. She aided in building an alliance of loyalists to Parker, as [[Spencer I]], who was initially neutral, began joining the side of the government. Eventually she joined a group of concerned citizens on April 25 to exile Rahim. She was the most extreme in the pro-government side of the crisis demanding the exile of not only Rahim but also Ibrahim, while even President Parker I desired more leniency for the latter.<br />
<br />
=== Councillor and Governor ===<br />
July 2010 saw Erised elected to the Secundomian Citizen's Council where she made history as the first woman to take part in Secundomian legislature. She expressed disapproval of the House of Governors Resolution 10, an unpopular resolution pushed by then Vice-President [[Parker I]] to automatically register structures built on Secundomian land as Secundomian territory. In August, she was appointed as governor of [[Southern Cipania]]. The government of the state lapsed soon afterwards and was made a territory. By April 2011 she was elected to the House of Representatives. <br />
<br />
=== Return to Executive Office ===<br />
Under the new Parker I administration she was appointed Director of National Parks and Environmental Development on Oct 3, 2010. As Parks Director she played an important role in the development of a park in [[District 12]]. Due to the difficulty accessing the state, the park was largely constructed by [[Phineas I]]. During this time she also worked as Protector of Southern Cipania. <br />
<br />
=== End of Micronational Career ===<br />
In August 2011 a new map of Secundomia was released defining the state of Nottingham in the region where Erised lived. It is unclear if this area was also claimed by Atlan, however, Erised accepted the claim of Nottingham by Secundomia. This was the last correspondence Erised had with Secundomia, either as a citizen or foreign official. She remained counted as a citizen until Secundomia's secession from [[Eran Federation|Eran]] in December 2012. With the birth of the [[Second Kingdom of Secundomia]] she was no longer party to the Secundomian Census and was not included in any later iterations of Secundomia. The existence of Atlan since 2010 is unclear. However, the Secundomian Federation considers it extant yet inactive.<br />
<br />
== Political Leanings ==<br />
Erised never joined a political party in Secundomia although she often supported candidates and efforts done by [[Secundomian Liberal Party]]. She expressed largely liberal and left wing points of view on social issues. At other times, she suggested support for a Monarchist style of government that she lead in Atlan over the Republican/democratic government in Secundomia. These values suggest that she favored a benevolent dictatorship system lead by a monarch encouraging civil liberties.<br />

'''Erised, Empress of Atlan''', known occasionally only as '''Erised''', '''Lil''', '''NJ''' or solely '''The Empress of Atlan''', is the monarch and sole citizen of [[Atlan]]. She was also a prominent and powerful citizen in the [[Republic of Secundomia]]. She was the first Secundomian woman to hold a position in the cabinet as Secretary of the Treasury during the Spencer I administration and Director of National Parks and Environmental Development under Parker I. She was also the first female congressperson in Secundomia as a [[Secundomian Congress|citizen's councilor]].<br />
<br />
== Personal life ==<br />
Erised was quite private about her personal life. In early discussions about Secundomia she made clear to separate her personal life from micronational politics. During election cycles the Secundomian email chains could often get vitriolic and overly personal, a fact which resulted in her departure in late 2009. <br />
<br />
== Micronational History ==<br />
<br />
=== Founding of Secundomia ===<br />
Erised was the fifth citizen to join the burgeoning Republic of Secundomia on December 16, 2009. She played a part in the still unnamed Republic's foundation, nominating "Coverla" for the country's name amongst others. Newly uncovered documents show that she also suggested several other names which did not make the final ballot: "Marith, Demira, Kiruna, Anghara, and Ispan."<ref>"Micronation thread"</ref> Coverla only received one vote and was quickly removed from the running. <br />
<br />
=== 2009 Elections and Secession of Atlan ===<br />
Erised withdrew her citizenship during conflicts leading up to the [[December 2009 Secundomian Elections]]. Atlan announced it's separation on December 23, 2009 with the Empress criticizing the democratic process of the Republic, favoring the monarchist government of her own nation. She said as a part of her announcement "Atlan needs me, and I have been neglecting my duties. fortunately, we do not have these silly elections."<ref>"Vote Parker I" email thread</ref> A delay in her removal from notifications about the Secundomian election lead to tensions between the newly separate countries. Erised threatened war on December 28: "Atlan needs me, and if I and not out of this group by tonight, I will declare war on you!" This conflict was shortly resolved through intergovernmental negotiations before the turn of the year, a summit between the leaders of Secundomia and Atlan ensued on December 29.<br />
<br />
=== Return to Secundomia and Atlanian Politics ===<br />
Erised applied for citizenship in Secundomia on February 25, 2010, after a second summit between leaders. Her return was swiftly approved. Tensions returned on February 26, causing concern of a potential intermicronational conflict or civil war. Tensions arose as a result of a census taken by Parker I of different governors and states within Secundomia, sparking a territorial dispute when Atlan was named a state. This dispute was resolved by re-clarification of Erised as a dual citizen of both Secundomia and Atlan. The territorial overlap of the two countries was never clarified (some records imply that Atlan contained no physical territory). Atlan was last mentioned in Secundomian records in August 2010, when brought up during a meeting of the Citizens Council by Erised. <br />
<br />
=== Secretariat in Spencer I Administration ===<br />
In March 2010 Erised was appointed Secretary of the Treasury by President [[Spencer I]]. This marked her first official office within the executive branch of Secundomia and set a new standard in the country as the first female in office.

'''Erised, Empress of Atlan''', known occasionally only as '''Erised''', '''Lil''', '''NJ''' or solely '''The Empress of Atlan''', is the monarch and sole citizen of [[Atlan]]. She was also a prominent and powerful citizen in the [[Republic of Secundomia]]. She was the first Secundomian woman to hold a position in the cabinet as Secretary of the Treasury during the Spencer I administration and Director of National Parks and Environmental Development under Parker I. She was also the first female congressperson in Secundomia as a [[Secundomian Congress|citizen's councilor]].<br />
<br />
== Personal life ==<br />
Erised was quite private about her personal life. In early discussions about Secundomia she made clear to separate her personal life from micronational politics. During election cycles the Secundomian email chains could often get vitriolic and overly personal, a fact which resulted in her departure in late 2009. <br />
<br />
== Micronational History ==<br />
<br />
=== Founding of Secundomia ===<br />
Erised was the fifth citizen to join the burgeoning Republic of Secundomia on December 16, 2009. She played a part in the still unnamed Republic's foundation, nominating "Coverla" for the country's name amongst others. Newly uncovered documents show that she also suggested several other names which did not make the final ballot: "Marith, Demira, Kiruna, Anghara, and Ispan."<ref>"Micronation thread"</ref> Coverla only received one vote and was quickly removed from the running. <br />
<br />
=== 2009 Elections and Secession of Atlan ===<br />
Erised withdrew her citizenship during conflicts leading up to the [[December 2009 Secundomian Elections]]. Atlan announced it's separation on December 23, 2009 with the Empress criticizing the democratic process of the Republic, favoring the monarchist government of her own nation. She said as a part of her announcement "Atlan needs me, and I have been neglecting my duties. fortunately, we do not have these silly elections."<ref>"Vote Parker I" email thread</ref> A delay in her removal from notifications about the Secundomian election lead to tensions between the newly separate countries. Erised threatened war on December 28: "Atlan needs me, and if I and not out of this group by tonight, I will declare war on you!" This conflict was shortly resolved through intergovernmental negotiations before the turn of the year, a summit between the leaders of Secundomia and Atlan ensued on December 29.<br />
<br />
=== Return to Secundomia and Atlanian Politics ===<br />
Erised applied for citizenship in Secundomia on February 25, 2010, after a second summit between leaders. Her return was swiftly approved. Tensions returned on February 26, causing concern of a potential intermicronational conflict or civil war. Tensions arose as a result of a census taken by Parker I of different governors and states within Secundomia, sparking a territorial dispute when Atlan was named a state. This dispute was resolved by re-clarification of Erised as a dual citizen of both Secundomia and Atlan. The territorial overlap of the two countries was never clarified (some records imply that Atlan contained no physical territory). Atlan was last mentioned in Secundomian records in August 2010, when brought up during a meeting of the Citizens Council by Erised. <br />
<br />
=== Secretariat in Spencer I Administration ===<br />
In March 2010 Erised was appointed Secretary of the Treasury by President [[Spencer I]]. This marked her first official office within the executive branch of Secundomia and set a new standard in the country as the first female in office. Spencer initially appointed her Secretary of Development, but was replaced by [[Nate I]] and moved to the Treasury department. On March 12 she was replaced momentarily as Secretary of the Treasury by [[Rahim I]], but returned to office later that day after negations between cabinet members. On March 22 she was removed from office due to inactivity and replaced by Rahim once again. <br />
<br />
=== Cabinet Crisis ===<br />
Erised played a key role in the [[Cabinet Crisis]] in April of Secundomia. She came to prominence in the crisis during the later stages of the [[Trial of Ibrahim I]]. She criticized the position of [[Luke of Secundomia]] that both sides of the crisis were in the wrong and was the most prominent citizen to offer support to President [[Parker I]] during the period. Her public support was met with accusations of conspiracy and personal attacks from Protest group leaders [[Ibrahim I]] and [[Rahim I]]. She aided in building an alliance of loyalists to Parker, as [[Spencer I]], who was initially neutral, began joining the side of the government. Eventually she joined a group of concerned citizens on April 25 to exile Rahim. She was the most extreme in the pro-government side of the crisis demanding the exile of not only Rahim but also Ibrahim, while even President Parker I desired more leniency for the latter.<br />
<br />
=== Councillor and Governor ===<br />
July 2010 saw Erised elected to the Secundomian Citizen's Council where she made history as the first woman to take part in Secundomian legislature. She expressed disapproval of the House of Governors Resolution 10, an unpopular resolution pushed by then Vice-President [[Parker I]] to automatically register structures built on Secundomian land as Secundomian territory. In August, she was appointed as governor of [[Southern Cipania]]. The government of the state lapsed soon afterwards and was made a territory. By April 2011 she was elected to the House of Representatives. <br />
<br />
=== Return to Executive Office ===<br />
Under the new Parker I administration she was appointed Director of National Parks and Environmental Development on Oct 3, 2010. As Parks Director she played an important role in the development of a park in [[District 12]]. Due to the difficulty accessing the state, the park was largely constructed by [[Phineas I]]. During this time she also worked as Protector of Southern Cipania. <br />
<br />
=== End of Micronational Career ===<br />
In August 2011 a new map of Secundomia was released defining the state of Nottingham in the region where Erised lived. It is unclear if this area was also claimed by Atlan, however, Erised accepted the claim of Nottingham by Secundomia. This was the last correspondence Erised had with Secundomia, either as a citizen or foreign official. She remained counted as a citizen until Secundomia's secession from [[Eran Federation|Eran]] in December 2012. With the birth of the [[Second Kingdom of Secundomia]] she was no longer party to the Secundomian Census and was not included in any later iterations of Secundomia. The existence of Atlan since 2010 is unclear.<br />
<br />
== Political Leanings ==<br />
Erised expressed largely liberal values in terms of social issues. She never joined a political party in Secundomia although she often supported candidates and efforts done by [[Secundomian Liberal Party]]. At other times, she suggested support for a Monarchist style of government that she lead in Atlan over the Republican/democratic government in Secundomia. <br />

The '''Secundomian Federation''', officially the '''Federation of Secundomian Socialist Republics''' ('''FSSR''', dubiously '''Secundomia''') is a [[w:socialist|socialist]] micronational federation consisting of several republics located in [[w:North America|North America]] and [[Micronationalism in Antarctica|Antarctica]]. It is a single-party state lead by the [[Maoist-Worker's Party of Secundomia]]. The constituent republics in the nation include [[Socialist Republic of Tergumterra|Tergumterra]], [[Socialist Republic of Secundomia|Secundomia]], and [[Socialist Republic of Sterling-Charcot|Sterling-Charcot]]. [[Socialist Republic of Gravois|Gravois]], a founding constituent republic, left the nation in 2020. <br />
<br />
The Federation is a successor in the long line of [[Secundomia]]n micronations. It is an amalgamation of most of the remaining members of the [[Secundomian Sector]]. All three constituting republics have varied histories but are closely tied together through a common leader, [[Parker I]]. The totalitarian government is meant to be radically socialist, but in practice operates as a [[one man nation]] with highly limited capacity to restrain the country's economy and politics. Due to its size, community orientation and "bricks and mortar" existence, the Secundomian Federation is classified as a [[Boodlesmythe-Tallini System of Classification|6th world country]].<br />
<br />
==Etymology==<br />
{{Main|Name of Secundomia}}<br />
<br />
[[File:Secundomianame.png|thumb|left|140px|Name of Secundomia in [[Secundomian Language|Secundomian]] and English.]]<br />
<br />
The Federation of Secundomian Socialist Republics is named after its core constituent republic of [[Socialist Republic of Secundomia|Secundomia]]. In turn, Secundomia is a neologism of the [[w:Latin|Latin]] words ''secundus'' and ''domus'' meaning roughly "behind the house." This name was created by Parker I with the founding of the [[Kingdom of Secundomia|First Kingdom]], which consisted exclusively of his backyard. The name of Secundomia was decided by a vote of the prospective citizens of the [[Republic of Secundomia|First Republic]]. The abbreviation FSSR was chosen due to its similarity to the [[w:USSR|USSR]], a country from which the federation takes political inspiration.<ref>Officially, the FSSR takes inspiration from Maoist political organizations throughout the world. The name FSSR was chosen by Parker I to reflect one of the most prominent Marxist-Leninist countries as well as reflect the nation's birth from three different Republics</ref><br />
<br />
==History==<br />
{{Main|History of Secundomia}}<br />
<br />
[[File:KSECFlag.png|thumb|200px|Flag of the [[Kingdom of Secundomia]]]]<br />
<br />
The FSSR traces its origins to the [[Secundomian Micronational Boom]], an event in December 2009 in which several micronations were founded in quick succession. The impetus for the boom occurred when brothers [[Parker I]] and [[Spencer I]] researched micronations together on [[w:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] and drew inspiration from [[Molossia]] and [[Aerica]].<ref>NBTween Email Server - "micronation-- great idea!" email, sent by Parker I, Dec 15, 2009</ref><ref>"Today in Newspaper email thread", started by [[Luke of Secundomia|Luke]], reply by Parker I, Dec 15, 2009</ref> The two brothers resolved to form a micronation together but a lack of communication resulted in each founding a nation antagonistic to the other, the [[Republic of Skillz]] and the [[Kingdom of Secundomia]].<ref name="logbook">Secundomia log book, 8 Feb 2010</ref> Both nations were short lived and volatile, with Skillz collapsing due to internal strife just hours after a [[Secundomian-Skillz War|declaration of war]] by Secundomia. The brothers sought peace and joined together with Skillz vice-president [[Nate I]] to form a new nation.<ref name="logbook" /><br />
<br />
===First Republic===<br />
{{Main|Republic of Secundomia}}<br />
<br />
The Republic of Secundomia was founded on December 16, 2009 and Parker sent an email to various friends to recruit new members. The new republic was extremely volatile internally with unrest in the state of [[Halstopia]]<ref>Secundomia Email Server - "Micronation thread" - email from [[H of Halstopia]], Dec 16, 2009</ref> and dueling national factions supporting rivals [[Parker I]] and [[Luke of Secundomia]]. The state of [[Atlan]] seceded in late 2009<ref>Secundomian email server - "Vote Parker I" thread - reply by [[Erised, Empress of Atlan]], 23 Dec, 2009</ref> drawing the two rivals to show unity to prevent total collapse, resolving to become co-presidents in January 2010.<ref>Secundomian email server - "Christmas Break" - reply by Luke of Secundomia 23 Dec 2009</ref><br />
<br />
[[File:Secundomian shield.png|thumb|left|150px|Republic of Secundomia's coat of Arms was created as a gift by [[Dylan Callahan]] of NottaLottaAcres, an early ally of the nation.]]<br />
<br />
Secundomia was quick to enter the micronational community on [[MicroWiki]], posting on talk pages of other nations to grow its diplomatic influence. Secundomia signed a pact with Kleinland<ref>[https://micronations.fandom.com/wiki/Talk:Kleinland Micronations Fandom - Talk:Kleinland]</ref> and entered into an alliance with [[Dylan Callahan|NottaLotta Acres]].<ref>[https://micronations.fandom.com/wiki/Message_Wall:Son3 Micronations Fandom Message Wall:Son3]</ref> Secundomia grew to be a somewhat influential nation on MicroWiki, allying itself largely with younger and more aggressive nations. Parker I advocated strongly in favor of simulationism<ref>OAM forums posts (website now inaccessible)</ref> and micronational warfare which drew the ire of some of the older and secessionist style nations in the community. Secundomia was also often involved in [[Great Ideological Conflict|ideological conflicts]], with Parker being a leader amongst conservatives in the community.<ref>[https://micronations.fandom.com/wiki/Talk:Istorian-Erusian_War?diff=prev&oldid=78107 Micronations Fandom - Talk:Istorian-Erusian War]</ref><br />
<br />
[[File:KingdomofSterlingflag.jpg|thumb|200px|Flag of Sterling]]<br />
<br />
===Foundation of Sterling===<br />
{{Main|Colony of Sterling}}<br />
<br />
In late January 2010 Parker I was concerned about a potential loss in the [[January 2010 Secundomian Elections|upcoming elections]]. In order to avoid losing power and also to ensure quicker diplomatic action in the MicroWiki sector, Parker founded the [[Sterling Monarchy|absolute monarchy]] [[Kingdom of Sterling]]. The original Kingdom claimed of the Grand Duchy of Iceia, all ice present on top of the Arctic ocean.<ref>Secundomian Email Server - "Become Grand Duke of Iceia!" thread, original email sent by Parker I, 15 Feb 2010</ref> Further claims were made on [[w:Pluto|Pluto]], [[w:Mercury|Mercury]] and [[w:243 Ida|243 Ida]].<ref>Secundomian Email Server - "Creation of the Kingdom of Sterling" thread, original email sent by Parker I, 30 Jan 2010</ref> In February 2010 Sterling laid claim on [[w:Charcot Island|Charcot Island]], Antarctica<ref name="SCR2">Secundomian Council Resolution 2: Definition of the Kingdom of Sterling</ref> and entered the [[Antarctic Micronational Union]].<ref>Secundomian email server - Secundomia in the AMU 6 Aug 2010</ref> To solidify its legitimacy within the AMU and the [[Organisation of Active Micronations]], the King renounced all extraterrestrial claims.<ref name="SCR2" /><br />
<br />
===Mid-2010===<br />
<br />
Spencer I was elected as the first sole president of Secundomia in late February 2010.<ref>Secundomian Email Server - "Spencer Wins" 23 Feb 2010</ref> Secundomia then went through a large territorial expansion known as the "Golden Days," an influx of citizens recruited by Spencer and the return of the state of Atlan.<ref>Secundomian-Atlanian Treaty of 2010</ref> Soon, the Secundomian sector turned its eye on intermicronational affairs in March 2010. During the [[Second Black March]], King Parker saw an opportunity to take intermicronational action under the banner of Sterling. While President Spencer's administration and the Secundomian Congress were cautious about launching military efforts, the Sterling Monarchy had no such qualms. <br />
<br />
[[File:Aegislogo1.png|thumb|left|180px|Secundomia and Sterling's membership in the Aegis Alliance resulted in international entanglements during the Austenasian Civil War]]<br />
As foreign minister of Secundomia, Parker I declared full diplomatic support for the [[Carolinianism|Carolinian rebels]] in the [[Austenasian Civil War]] to the fullest extent of his authority. Meanwhile, as King of Sterling, Parker I expressed his intention to mobilize military support on behalf of the rebels and declared war on the [[Empire of Austenasia]] on March 8, 2010.<ref>[https://republicofsmithville.wordpress.com/2015/05/25/republic-of-smithville-news-special-issue/ RepublicofSmithville News - Special Issue] May 24, 2015</ref> This decision drew significant criticism from the community, particularly from [[Alexander Reinhardt]] of the [[St.Charlian Observer|St. Charlian Observer]].<ref>[https://stcharlianobserver.wordpress.com/2010/03/10/reinhardts-corner-the-corrosive-decline-of-community/ Reinhardt's Corner - The Corrosive Decline of Community]</ref> Sterling withdrew from the war only two days later with the King denying that public pressure had forced the withdrawal. However, Parker did admit that Sterling's suspension from the AMU was a significant step back for the nation.<ref>Parker I, public statement to the Secundomian People in Middle Secundomia</ref><br />
<br />
The close Secundomian allies [[Zonian Confederacy|Zona]] and NottaLotta Acres entered the Austenasian Civil War under the [[Allied Carolinian Coalition]] on March 20, drawing Sterling back into the conflict.<ref>[https://lavradabannerman.wordpress.com/2017/08/30/separate-and-unequal-brizendine-and-callahan/ The Bannerman Online - Separate and Unequal: Brizendine and Callahan]</ref> The conflict began to affect Secundomia's reputation as well, with the [[Midget Nation-in-Exile]] shifting their diplomatic stance towards Secundomia to "enemy." On April 1, however, Sterling withdrew from the coalition calling the war "a series of empty threats." The ACC was dissolved a day later and [[Jonathan Augustus|Crown Prince Jonathan]] thanked Sterling for leaving the war. <br />
<br />
[[File:President announcement.png|thumb|180px|Parker I announces his cabinet choices. (artist's depiction)]]<br />
<br />
Parker I ascended back to the office of the President of Secundomia in April 2010.<ref>Secundomian Email Server - "Parker I has locked in victory for President in the March 2010 Secundomian Elections." 31 March 2010</ref> Controversy erupted in the country after his appointments for cabinet were released. The [[Cabinet Crisis (Secundomia)|Cabinet Crisis]] bifurcated the country between Parker I, the [[Empress of Atlan]] and a large group of protestors desiring positions in the new government.<ref>Secundomian email server ":|" sent by Parker to Ibrahim I, 5 Feb 2011</ref> Parker and the Empress accused [[Rahim I]] and [[Ibrahim I]] of conducting harassment campaigns which were against the law on official Secundomian discussion boards. This resulted in the Trial of Ibrahim I, a high profile event in which Ibrahim was acquitted of all charges.<ref>Secundomian Email Server - "Trial of Ibrahim I begins today 18 Apr 2010</ref> Continued unrest after the trial resulted in realignment of much of the population behind President Parker I and the exile of Rahim from the country.<ref>"That's It!" Personal email from Luke to several secundomians 25 Apr, 2010</ref><br />
<br />
===Late 2010===<br />
<br />
In later 2010 the Kingdom of Sterling was folded into Secundomia, only consisting of its claims to Charcot Island.<ref name="SCR2" /> The reorganized "Colony of Sterling" was lead by Protector [[J of Sterling]].<ref>Secundomia Email Server"Hey what's up Secundomia?

<br />
[[File:Secundomian_Commonwealth.png|thumb|left|200px|The Intermicronational Democratic Commonwealth was the spiritual predecessor of the FSSR]]<br />
<br />
In late 2010 Parker I joined another micronational project after he was offered a department in the [[Slinky Empyre]]. Parker and [[Kyng Fyrst]] founded the [[Tergumterra Department]] out of a small slice of land cut off from [[Middle Secundomia]].<ref>[https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&z=7&showlabs=1&mid=17eFRGyt-UkTOF2BUwe30W_P7Q-w&ll=35.358134455615314%2C-95.99267145615283 Slinky Empyre Terrytory - Google My Maps] ''in Slin-English''</ref> Parker was appointed vyceroy of the department. Meanwhile, [[Bubba Marra]] of [[Secundomian Dependent Territory of the Sandbars|the Sandbars]] approached Secundomia with a proposition. The Sandbars was a young micronation, and wanted the guidance of Secundomia. In return, the Sandbars became a dependent territory. Together with the Colony of Sterling, the three nations formed the [[Intermicronational Democratic Commonwealth]].<br />
<br />
===Late Republic period===<br />
<br />
In 2011, Parker was elected president once again after a hard fought election against Spencer I. As a part of his platform, Parker touted the successes of the [[Secundomian Agency for Air and Space Exploration]], including the launch of Eagle I aided by General [[Phineas Snow]].<ref>Secundomian Email Server - "Rocket Launch" 2 Jan 2011</ref> Despite large levels of activity within the intermicronational community, Secundomia was fairly dormant itself. There would never be another election in the Republic of Secundomia and Parker would remain president throughout the remainder of its existence.<ref>Secundomian Email Server - "IMPORTANT Senate Resolution 01 proposed TO COMPLETELY RESTRUCTURE SECUNDOMIA" 9 Jun 2011</ref><br />
<br />
[[File:Flag of the Slinky Republyc.png|thumb|180px|Tergumterra was a central member of the Slinky Republyc.]]<br />
<br />
The Slinky Empyre began to become a site of controversy in January 2011 after Kyng Fyrst's return to [[MicroWikia]]. Parker lead a [[Dissolution of the Slinky Empyre|revolt]] from Tergumterra and the Empyre dissolved. Tergumterra joined the young [[Slinky Republyc]] and Parker I was appointed prime minister, again holding two micronational leadership titles. Soon, like Secundomia, the Slinky Republyc became inactive internally and dissolved in February. The Tergumterra Department was transferred to Secundomia and Parker I granted independence to the territory as [[Res Publica Tergumterra]]. Secundomia also renounced its claims to the Colony of Sterling which became the [[Republic of Sterling]].<br />
<br />
The Sandbars collapsed on March 31, 2011. Soon after, Res Publica Tergumterra took its place in the Intermicronational Democratic Commonwealth, alongside the reorganized Republic of Sterling. This was the first full unification of the three nations that would eventually become the FSSR.<br />
<br />
===Eran Federation===<br />
{{Main|Eranian Secundomia}}<br />
<br />
After a year of internal inactivity, Secundomia joined the [[Eran Federation]] in 2012. Parker I was elected Prime Minister of the federation as leader of the [[Eran Federation#Political Parties|Conservative Libertarian Alliance]] in June.<ref>[http://eran.freeforums.org/post1296.html#p1296 Eran Forums]</ref> However, Secundomia was unable to sustain its activity in Eran. Parker was entering high school and with increasing personal responsibilities he began to step away from micronationalism as a hobby. In December 2012, Secundomia officially [[Post-Eran Secundomia|seceded]] from Eran.<br />
<br />
[[File:Butterfly.png|thumb|Butterfly Monument commemorating Eran]]<br />
<br />
===Reorganization period===<br />
<br />
Secundomia, Sterling and Tergumterra became largely inactive after Eran. Sometime in 2013 (although the date is officially lost), Sterling and Tergumterra combined to form the [[Republic of Sterling and Tergumterra]]. In 2014, Parker reorganized Secundomia into the [[Reformed Kingdom of Secundomia|Second Kingdom]] now officially containing only Parker I as a citizen. All three micronations were united for the first time in 2015 when Parker conducted a coup-d'etat under the [[Secundomian Nationalist Monarchist Party]] to preserve Secundomian values. The three nations together were known as the [[Third Kingdom of Secundomia]], with [[Principality of Sterling|Sterling]] and [[Principality of Tergumterra|Tergumterra]] as vassalized principalities, also held by King Parker I. <br />
<br />
[[File:Maoflag1.svg|thumb|200px|left|[[w:Maoism|Maoism]] was a core inspiration behind the founding of the Democratic Republic of Secundomia.]]<br />
<br />
The Third Kingdom only lasted a few months before three new citizens joined the country. These new citizens were unhappy with the nationalist form of government under the King and two of them, Jaedon I and Antonia I formed the [[Worker's Party of Secundomia]] and confronted Parker I in the First August Revolution.<ref name="wps">In person discussion and meeting of the WPS in Eastern Secundomia</ref> After negotiations, Parker I agreed to abdicate and join the party as chairperson under the vanguard committee of President Jaedon I. The Worker's Party joined with the [[Anti-Sloth Party]] of Brennan I to form a Revolutionary Coalition to head up the new [[Democratic Republic of Secundomia]], now headquartered in [[Eastern Secundomia]] rather than the traditional capital of Middle Secundomia.<ref name="wps" /> At no point did the Revolutionary Coalition recognize the existence of Tergumterra and Sterling, which both were now ''de jure'' independent under interregnum after the abdication of King Parker I.<br />
<br />
===Founding of the FSSR===<br />
<br />
[[File:FSSRFlag2016.png|thumb|200px|Original (2016-2020) flag of the FSSR prior to the collapse of Gravois, note the extra stripe representing the fourth republic.]]<br />
<br />
The Revolutionary Coalition ultimately failed to inspire inactivity in Secundomia. Parker I decided to again seize power to sustain the history of the country. In April 2016 Parker founded the [[Maoist-Worker's Party of Secundomia]] and conducted a second revolution enveloping not only the Democratic Republic of Secundomia but also Sterling and Tergumterra. All three nations were reorganized as the Federation of Secundomian Socialist Republics. Tergumterra remained largely the same with Parker I appointed premier of the [[Socialist Republic of Tergumterra]]. The Secundomian State of Gravois was separated from the newly christened [[Socialist Republic of Secundomia]] to form the [[Socialist Republic of Gravois]] while the remaining states were reorganized as districts. The Principality of Sterling was reorganized as the [[Socialist Republic of Sterling-Charcot]] and split into three districts. <br />
<br />
Since 2016 the FSSR has been largely inactive. Most of the activity within the country comes from historical efforts by the MWPS and Parker I in particular to catalog the history of Secundomia. Efforts to centralize the FSSR's economy have met some resistance, which resulted in large parts of SR Gravois falling apart and returning to the United States. The remainder of SR Gravois, largely dependent on the tourism industry, fell victim to the COVID-19 pandemic and the FSSR renounced their claims to their fourth constituent republic. The FSSR was originally lead from Eastern Secundomia, site of the revolution. However, the capital moved to Hanover in 2020. Officially, the Federation is still lead from Hanover, but since October 2021 does not hold any power in the city. The Party conducts official business either in exile or on occasion from Middle Secundomia.<br />
<br />
==Politics and government==<br />
<br />
The FSSR is a [[w:single-party state|single-party state]] lead by the [[Maoist-Worker's Party of Secundomia]]. As chairperson and sole member of the party, Parker I holds absolute power within the federation. Parker and the MWPS espouse a commitment to Marxism-Leninism-Maoism as an ideology and regard a totalitarian socialist state a necessity for the progression towards communism. The party expresses support for the line of communist philosopher [[w:J. Moufawad-Paul|J. Moufawad-Paul]],<ref>MWPS founding documents, Hanover, Eastern Secundomia (undated)</ref> especially his concept of the Communist Necessity,<ref>Moufawad-Paul, J. ''The Communist Necessity'' (Montreal: Kersplebedeb, 2014)</ref> which is used to justify the totalitarian power of the party. Further, the party has adopted elements of [[w:Juche|Juche]], including the tenet of national self-reliance and the "Great Leader" theory.<br />
<br />
[[File:Mwps banner.png|thumb|left|200px|Banner of the [[Maoist-Worker's Party of Secundomia|MWPS]].]]<br />
<br />
The government is split into three Constituent Republics, Sterling-Charcot, Tergumterra and Secundomia. Each are administered by a Premier, a representative appointed by MWPS to control the territory. All are further subdivided into administrative districts. Tergumterra is made up of a single district, while Secundomia and Sterling-Charcot both contain multiple districts. The former republic of Gravois was subdivided into counties rather than districts as a result of its heritage as a [[Gravois (state)|state]] of the [[Republic of Secundomia]]. <br />
<br />
===Law and order===<br />
<br />
[[File:Blmlogo.png|thumb|200px|The Secundomian Federation officially supports the [[w:Black Lives Matter|Black Lives Matter]] movement.]]<br />
<br />
Despite its totalitarian nature, the FSSR government lacks significant capacity to conduct law and order within the country. The MWPS expressed support for the Black Lives Matter movement in the summer of 2020, opposing the brutality of American police. Although the MWPS has not ideologically adopted abolition within the FSSR, it supports the defunding of police in the United States.<ref>Official government statement from Hanover, Eastern Secundomia - Announced by Parker I, June 2020</ref> The law and order system is largely non-present within the micronation due to the relative limited capacity compared to the external state forces in Kansas and Missouri.<br />
<br />
===Foreign relations===<br />
<br />
Unlike its predecessors in the First Republic and the Kingdom of Sterling, the FSSR is largely isolationist. The government lacks sufficient resources to conduct intermicronational relations to the level of its predecessors. The extent of intermicronational relations as of 2022 are updates to wiki pages to inform other nations about the history of Secundomia and its political evolution. In 2021, [[Bepistan]] reached out to Parker I to establish a treaty of mutual recognition. The FSSR declined in April 2022, committing to a policy of isolationism.<ref>[https://micronations.wiki/wiki/User_talk:Parker User talk:Parker]</ref><br />
<br />
====Macronational relations====<br />
<br />
The Secundomian Federation does recognize a significant amount of UN member states with few exceptions. Notably, the nation does not recognize the [[w:Israel|State of Israel]]. The FSSR extends recognition to [[w:Palestine|Palestine]] instead. The FSSR also does not recognize the UN-represented governments of [[w:Ukraine|Ukraine]], Afghanistan or the [[w:South Korea|Republic of Korea]]. In addition to UN member states, the FSSR recognizes the [[w:Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic|Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic]], [[w:Republic of South Ossetia|South Ossetia]], [[w:Republic of Abkhazia|Abkhazia]], [[w:Donetsk People's Republic|Donetsk]], [[w:Luhansk People's Republic|Luhansk]], [[w:Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic|Transnistria]] and [[w:Republic of Artsakh|Artsakh]]. Reciprocal recognition has not been extended to the Secundomian Federation by any macronation.<br />
<br />
===Military===<br />
<br />
The MWPS recognizes the importance of a national military in Maoist theory and Juche. According to the MWPS, external forces of capitalism can prevent the natural development of socialism within particular countries. Despite ideologically supporting a strong defense system, the FSSR is restrained by material inadequacy. When the MWPS seized power in the Democratic Republic of Secundomia, all members of the armed forces left the nation. Further, after the dissolution of Gravois, the FSSR lost much of its military capacity locked into its Navy. The FSSR also lacks strong ground and air forces.<br />
<br />
[[File:GNNB01.jpg|thumb|left|200px|View of the Gravois National Naval Base in Secundomian Bay just prior to its abandonment.]]<br />
<br />
====Navy====<br />
The Navy was the only active branch of the FSSR. After the MWPS seized power, the naval branch of the [[Secundomian Military]] was still in force in Gravois. Gravois was granted status as a Republic under the MWPS and held control over the navy. In 2016, the Navy was split between two bases, both in the SR Gravois - Gravois National Naval Base (GNNB) along the Secundomian Bay and Gravois National Naval Base West (GNNB-W) in Little Bay. The naval forces themselves consisted of multiple [[w:Personal watercraft|personal watercraft]], several large vessels and two kayaks left over from the Republic of Secundomia. The Party was not actively involved in maintaining the Navy, this responsibility fell upon several non-party members who were often hostile to the Communist ideals of the government. <br />
<br />
The Navy suffered significant losses with the fall of East Gravois. The citizens of the City of Gene fled the nation in 2017, decommissioning or abandoning most of the naval forces. These were recovered by local American citizens. The navy was reduced to less than half of its material capacity at this time. Further losses struck the military in 2020 when Stone County collapsed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The inability of the MWPS to visit and maintain the remaining naval forces meant they were decommissioned alongside SR Gravois.<br />
<br />
==Geography and climate==<br />
<br />
[[File:Fssrterritorial.png|thumb|Map of the [[FSSR]]. SR Tergumterra in red, SR Sterling Charcot in blue, the former SR Gravois in purple, SR Secundomia in green is obscured by the map, but is located neighboring Tergumterra.]]<br />
<br />
The geography of the FSSR varies significantly between the Republic Sterling-Charcot (located in Antarctica) and the other Republics (located in North America). Sterling-Charcot is located on a mountainous island almost entirely covered by a glacier.<ref name="charcotweather">[https://www.ats.aq/devph/en/apa-database/74 APA Database - Antarctic Treaty]</ref> Although it borders the [[w:Bellingshausen Sea|Bellingshausen Sea]], access to the island is heavily restricted due to ice.<ref>[https://news.climate.columbia.edu/2019/11/27/ducklow-inlet-charcot-island/ Columbia Climate School - An Inlet By Any Other Name: Lamont Scientist Honored with Antarctic Namesake]</ref> Secundomia is surrounded by [[w:Johnson County, Kansas|Johnson County]], [[w:Kansas|Kansas]] and [[w:Jackson County, Missouri|Jackson County]], [[w:Missouri|Missouri]], located in the rolling, wooded hills of the [[w:Kansas City|Kansas City]] metropolitan area.<ref>Secundomian Email Server - "All Secundomian Maps" 9 Jul, 2010</ref> Tergumterra is entirely enclaved within Secundomia and consists of only a small, triangular strip of asphalt nearby Middle Secundomia City. <br />
<br />
===Administrative divisions===<br />
<br />
The FSSR is politically divided into 3 republics. All 3 republics are subdivided into districts, some of which have cities within them. The current capital of the FSSR is the city of [[Hanover]] in the district of [[Eastern Secundomia]], [[Socialist Republic of Secundomia|SR Secundomia]]. <br />

===Climate===<br />
<br />
The climate of the FSSR varies based on location. Secundomia and Tergumterra lie within the center of the North American continent. They have a humid continental/humid subtropical climate.<ref>[https://en.climate-data.org/north-america/united-states-of-america/kansas/overland-park-1511/ ClimateData.org Overland Park climate]</ref> Both Secundomia and Tergumterra lie within the Tornado Alley of North America, making them vulnerable to extreme weather.<ref>[https://www.weather.gov/ict/toptenkstors Weather.Gov Top Ten KS Tornadoes]</ref><br />

<br />
==Economy==<br />
<br />
The FSSR has attempted to transition to a centrally planned economy without much success outside of Tergumterra. Tergumterra's strategic location on the asphalt of a road that runs through Middle Secundomia allows it to control traffic in the area. The MWPS has released plans to implement a fare system, although there are potential legal problems as the City of [[w:Overland Park|Overland Park, Kansas]] claims ownership over the same stretch of asphalt. <br />
<br />
While Tergumterra's economy is largely dependent on the public transportation sector, Secundomia largely remains a free market economy due to limited capacity by the FSSR to enforce economic norms. Income to the country comes largely from worker's wages paid by American companies and government. Although the United States does not recognize the Secundomian Federation's capacity to regulate trade, they are the largest import and export partner of the micronation. <br />
<br />
Sterling-Charcot is occasionally visited by foreign cruise lines.<ref name="ponant" /> These Cruise lines observe the local fauna and landscape of the island. The government of the FSSR has been unable to implement a tax to profit off of these companies, however, as they do not recognize the sovereignty of the nation. This has hamstrung the government's ability to control and moderate the economy.<br />
<br />
==Culture and media==<br />
<br />
The FSSR's culture is largely influenced by American culture, in particular American sports culture. Some parts of FSSR culture have developed independently with a focus on unique backyard games often featuring 3 participants and the development of conlangs.<br />
<br />
[[File:Pwc example.jpg|thumb|left|200px|[[w:Personal Watercraft|Personal Watercraft]] (PWC) were used for sport in Gravois alongside their naval duties.]]<br />
<br />
===Sport and games===<br />
The FSSR has a highly competitive sports culture. Many in the nation are fans of professional sports including American football (the federation's official sport), association football, hockey, baseball and basketball. The city of Middle Secundomia has been a place of sports innovation, with sports like [[Cupball]], "sandbox soccer," and others invented there. Gravois historically played host to American football events, PWC racing, water skiing, swimming and diving. Board games including [[w:Chess|Chess]] and [[w:Crokinole|Crokinole]] are also popular in Middle Secundomia alongside classic arcade games. <br />
<br />
===Langauge===<br />
<br />
A diversity of languages are spoken in the FSSR. Historically, Turkish and Latin were prominent in Secundomia. The MWPS has overseen development of the [[Secundomian language]], a conlang designed to be uniquely Secundomian. German is occasionally spoken in the district of Eastern Secundomia. Secundomian Classical Slin-English, a variant of [[Slin-Englysh]] is native to Tergumterra. <br />
<br />
===Media===<br />
<br />
The media in the FSSR is largely non-existent. The MWSP seeks to control most of the media for propaganda purposes, but in reality most Secundomians get news from American sources and social media.<br />
<br />
[[File:FSSRFlag2021.png|thumb|200px|The flag of the FSSR represents the nation's politics, geography and history.]]<br />
<br />
===Symbols and flag===<br />
Symbols are a highly important part of the Secundomian Federation. Although there is often a lack of internal activity, symbols are core to the legacy through which the Secundomian Federation persists. The flags of the various Republics are influenced by their history as the [[Kingdom of Sterling]], [[Tergumterra Department]] and [[Republic of Secundomia]]. The flag of the FSSR contains a [[w:hammer and sickle|hammer and sickle]] on a red field to reference the nation's socialist character. Three colored vertical bars are located on the right side of the flag to represent the nation's republics and their varied histories, with yellow representing Tergumterra, green representing Secundomia and dark blue representing Sterling. A fourth light blue bar represented Gravois prior to their secession from the Federation.<br />
