President Ayden Tucker, often simply referred to as Ayden Tucker, is both the founder and first and so far only President of the Democratic Union of New Pulaskia. He has been democratically elected four times as President, first in March of 2022 (he was sworn in on 18 March), again in May with the new election date established, and twice more in May 2023 and 2024. He was not sworn in again on the latter dates. He was also formerly the Minister of Media of New Pulaskia (elected May 2022 before the position was disbanded in 2023), and almost entirely writes and keeps up with the nation’s MicroWiki pages, now with the help of a few other Pulaskians.

The periods of his presidencies have been filled with growth and important events, especially the formalization of an Xaidian alliance and the strengthening of ties between Xaidia and New Pulaskia. He has also reformed the military, currency, and founded the United Church of New Pulaskia (now disbanded) as well as the Liberal-Conservative Party of New Pulaskia (now simply the Liberal Party). He wrote the Pulaskian Constitution, Declaration of Independence, Pulaskian-Hakoian Alliance Treaty, drafted the Xaidian Alliance Treaty as well as the Xaidian-Aglesian-Pulaskian and Kalossian-Aglesian-Pulaskian Non-Aggression Pact, and is currently drafting a paper updated version of the Constitution for review. He has weathered many crises aimed at himself or the nation during his time in Pulaskia, namely the COVID Crisis, Higgins Resignation Crisis, UMC Crisis, Xaidian Crisis, the Defence Crisis (First Pulaskian Civil War), January Crisis, False Email Crisis, Cannon Rebellion, Kalossian Annexation Crisis, Email Crisis (The Fall), Crumpler Crisis, and the most recent, the Pulaskian Civil War.

In addition to New Pulaskia, Ayden is a Junior High student in Arkansas, plays in the Band, is on the Quiz Bowl Team, a former Student Council Representative, and a former Reporter/Historian and still a member of his school’s FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) chapter. He enjoys reading, art, history, geography, and creating and playing strategy board games like RISK. He owns several dogs and is an avid player of both Minecraft and Roblox. He loves playing with his cousins, sister, and dogs.

Early Life to Nordlandia

Ayden was born in early 2010 in Little Rock, Arkansas to Travis T and Cynthia A. He was a very intelligent child, learning to read at the early age of 2 and being quite calm and quiet. He did not attend any religious institution for the majority of his childhood, especially after his biological mother and father divorced when he was 3 years old. This had a deep impact on the future president, causing him to be in a grey area where few traditions carried over. He would, at first, attend the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Bryant, Arkansas, with his maternal grandmother, taking many traditions with him that he would later put into the United Church of New Pulaskia. He would also occasionally attend St.Theresa’s Catholic Church in Little Rock, AR with his paternal grandmother: He attended Elementary School in Bryant, AR, meeting his friends Cade A, Gavin P, Zachary B, Oliver J, and Cameron D, and becoming incredibly talkative around friends. This would be where he would begin forming his idea for a nation. During his schooling there, he would see both his mother and father remarry, importantly gaining his stepmother and her incredible passion for art, history, organization, and, through strict discipline, etiquette. This would influence him later on, helping him to conduct business as President.

Zackstovia

During the fifth grade at Elementary School, Ayden would join the small micronation of Zachblachia (later Zackblackia and then Zackstovia), led by his friend Zack B, upon his request. Those friends listed above joined the nation as well, just in time for the Jaelandian War. Serving as a general, soldier, and ambassador for Zackstovia, Ayden fought a war of words and weapons. The Jaelandians, however, would deal several defeats and refute any attempts at a diplomatic solution. This severely hurt the reputation of Zackstovia, causing independence movements to spring up. These were not quelled, and several areas, including an autonomous area in North Little Rock, known as the Autonomous Region of Overbrook, seceded. Thus new nations were born. Ayden was the force behind the secessionist movement of Overbrook, the one that would later birth the nation of New Pulaskia.

Republic of Overbrook

The Republic of Overbrook was the nation founded by Ayden, just one of many born out of the independence movements in Zackstovia. It was the first new republic, and it would continue the war against the Jaelandians, with its capital declared at North Little Rock (later Provinstadt). This Republic, however, would endure its first test just days after its independence. The Jaelandians would attack at the Battle of Triangle Tower, where the Republic of Overbrook would hold back the Jaelandians for long enough to receive reinforcements from the Zackstovian coalition made up of their allies of Angria, Zackstovia, the Republic of Table, and the Armstrong Clan. This would be a victory for the coalition, but Ayden realized that continuing to hold Triangle Tower was impossible, and so he ordered a retreat from the area (though it would later be retaken by the coalition and gifted to the Armstrong Clan, which would end up abandoning it again due to proximity to the Jaelandian capital). The Republic of Overbrook would soon after be opted out in favor of the Beiyang Republic, though it was mostly a name change by Ayden that lasted for just a few days or weeks (several patriotic songs and even a law code made by Ayden from the Beiyang era still exist, implying a longer lived nation than Overbrook), giving way to the United Provinces of Nordlandia.

United Provinces of Nordlandia

Nordlandia would be the first time the population of a micro nation ruled by Ayden grew from just himself to include more citizens. Nordlandia would weather the latter part of the Jaelandian War, most of which was overseen by Ayden. He would go through the betrayal of Race Loux, which led to the fall of coalition land in the central playground region, would write a Nordlandian law code and anthem (which has been mostly lost to time) and would claim the Jaelandian capital for the coalition after the Jaelandians retreated into the Yellow Fort area as the school year ended and the Jaelandians lost morale and drive to take the rest of the playground after failing to achieve total victory. The end of the war (though unofficially, without any treaty signed) would come quickly soon after, and Ayden settled in, with Nordlandia already at a peak of around five citizens(the population numbers are unclear at this time and were not documented). He would, however, become extremely flustered, as the future first Treasurer of New Pulaskia, and at the time citizen of Nordlandia, Maddox Tucker, would continually refer to the nation as Nerdlandia. This would, later on, cause Ayden to change the name of the nation once more. However, this was preceded by the late age of Nordlandia. Ayden would mostly forget about the nation around this time, but during the summer of 2021, he did work somewhat on the nation, beginning to write what would later become the Pulaskian Constitution, and emphasizing government positions (the foundations to the elections) though he would realize it was untenable to maintain the nation, and it would mostly collapse.

New Republic Era

Ayden would have a very relaxed summer, almost completely forgetting about his small nation. But it was still there. Levyn S, considered one of the earliest members of Nordlandia, would go on to remind Ayden about his small nation, something to this day deemed something that, had it not occurred, would likely have been the death of Pulaskia as it exists today. As a result, Ayden would begin something new, a new Nordlandia. He would remake his national symbols, including the national motto, seal, and other various things, and open relations with a briefly resurgent Zackstovia. With the capital renamed to Provinstadt, a Constitution written up, and even a Google Sites page (this too, was sadly lost) being created, more people began to slowly trickle in. And so the Republic of Nordlandia entered a new age. One that, sadly, would end in stagnation as interest was lost in the winter. The nation would shrink back into another dark age, until interest was restored by another important figure: Maddox T.

First Presidency

Union Era

Maddox would give Ayden another spark to keep the nation going: a new name. Despite him being the one to refer jokingly to Nordlandia as “Nerdlandia”, Maddox would be the one to come up with the name New Pulaskia, after Pulaski County, where the capital of Provinstadt lies. It would birth a new era, and things began to pick up from there. Ayden changed national symbols were changed to reflect the new nation, worked on the Constitution, and developed relations with a re-emerging Zackstovia throughout February and March. In February too, came the first elections for the nation, with Ayden running for and winning the position of President. As April began, Ayden was working on a MicroWiki page for the nation, and would allow Kahlan H, Joseph C, and Lily B into the nation, appointing Kahlan to the positions of Chief Justice of the Pulaskian Supreme Court and Police Chief. Shortly after, Pulaskia would face its first crisis, as while Ayden was out with COVID-19, Kahlan and Joseph would lead an attempted coup, though both claimed the other had started it and attempted to get themselves to join, leading to an inconclusive court case. Following this, as new elections (usually considered the first official elections) rolled around in May, Ayden would make a deal with Kahlan to disband the Representatives system within the government, paving the way for the Presidential Council, and another deal with Joseph to create an Autonomous Province for himself, known as Josentia, under threat of civil war. In the 2021 elections, Ayden would run for and successfully win the positions of Minister of Media and, as before, the position of President, beating Joseph in a landslide, despite fears that he might use the positions to oppress the populace. Ayden also successfully courted the leaders of the nations of Xaidia (Rebecca D) and Aglezia (Gavin M) diplomatically, and helped found the unofficial “Triple Alliance” between the three nations. In summer of that year he faced the July Coup, led by Maddox T, which forced him to temporarily reinstate Maddox as Treasurer instead of the newly elected Joseph, though the position would soon return to Joseph. Ayden would also suggest a Narcotics Act to ban smoking and vaping, at the time a major threat to the nation.

New Horizons Era

As activity restarted in September, Ayden threw himself into the nation. In September, Ayden facilitated the publishing of the first edition of the Pulaskian Times, which has since become the longest non-continuously running newspaper in Pulaskia, approving a military draft in case of a possible looming war with Aglezia without approval from the Council or other officers, besides Treasurer and Head of NMSA Joseph C, saying that, quote, “we must protect our interests”. This would cause some tension between him and Kahlan, who wanted an explanation as to why a military draft had been implemented without her approval, though her fears were quickly placated, with Ayden saying that it was “necessary to get our nation on track.” Later that month, Ayden would fail to keep up with stones given to him by the Aglezian Emperor Gavin M, called by names of “celestite” and “carbonite” by Gavin, losing them likely to thieves. He would become heavily involved in the currency naming debates, supporting at first naming the currency the “Pulaskian Galleon” and pulling the Constitution, still in progress at the time, against the Treasurer in order to stop him from simply imposing his own suggestion, the conkident, before settling on a compromise together with Joseph, Rebecca D and Kahlan H to name it the Pulaskian Dollar. Around the same time, Ayden would complete the Pulaskian Declaration of Independence, becoming the first to sign, while also opening a small business within Pulaskia known as the “Pulaskian Wax Makers”, which, with help from Rebecca, began creating small wax animal sculptures. Then, on September 30, Kahlan Higgins would resign, sending shockwaves across the nation. Ayden, scrambling in the wake of her resignation, allowed Rebecca D to take the position, but, following Kahlan’s request to revoke the decision and reinstate her, Ayden would inform Rebecca that Kahlan would be returning. An upset Rebecca demanded a “vote of approval”, with Kahlan becoming victorious. Rebecca would resign from all positions and temporarily disband Xaidia, causing Ayden to become distraught at the possibility of losing a friend, to the point that he would restrict Kahlan from publishing any stories about it in the Pulaskian Times, though she would find a loophole and began publication of the Pulaskian Gazette to share the story. However, Ayden was able to make amends, and Rebecca would return, surprising everyone when she subsequently proposed a unification between her nation of Xaidia and New Pulaskia, though Ayden would ask Rebecca to postpone it until a unification vote could pass in the Council. Ayden would also at this time begin to assist in editing the Xaidian Atlas, the official newspaper of Xaidia, started by Rebecca and inspired by the Times, and, as Minister of Media, would approve the Gazette to continue publication. He would also continue to push in favor of unification with Xaidia, though this took a backseat when, on October 14, Aglesian Emperor at the time Gavin M would request Rebecca's and Ayden's attendance at a United Micronational Conference between Aglesia, Xaidia and Pulaskia. Despite also informing and inviting Joseph C and Kahlan H, Gavin would request neither attend, stating it would be for only the highest positions in each nation. However, chaos erupted when, at the conference, Rebecca and Ayden were told that they were to be deposed and assassinated by Gavin, and that the whole thing had been orchestrated by Kahlan. Ayden and Rebecca would both flee, as the President attempted to rally the people to action, stating that he trusted Kahlan and would be implementing a new military draft in case of war. Gavin, however, would state that he had been “hibernating” and that a “Greay” had taken his place to, quote, “avoid international incidents”, as well as questioning talk of a war, though Ayden mostly dismissed it, telling Kahlan later that he trusted her fully, and that Gavin’s usage of the terms “asset” instead of “ally” worried him. However, as the crisis faded into the background somewhat, the Xaidian unification once more came to the forefront. The Council would gather on October 24 to conduct a tiebreaker vote regarding the unification, after a first vote had tied. When the votes were counted, and Ayden failed to intervene and push for the election and override the vote, Rebecca and Ayden would have a falling out once more, with a quite heated argument. However, Ayden would quickly calm things down through an idea. He realized that the Pulaskian people had voted, but that those from Xaidia had not. There were 3 Xaidians who had not voted in the Pulaskian vote, and, when asked for their opinions, they fully approved, and the unification was set to go ahead, though the union remained controversial. As October neared its end, Ayden would fall ill, most likely with the flu or strep throat, with Kahlan taking over his position temporarily and holding further non-aggression talks with Aglesia. However, important developments were occurring in Pulaskia, events that would shake the entire nation.

Era of Chaos

On November 3, 2022, Ayden would receive an email from Joseph C that would change the course of Pulaskian history. He claimed that Brayden A, at the time the Minister of Defense, was using the nation's resources to launch a civil war and remove Ayden from power. Other claims were made by new citizen Dia B, who claimed that Joseph was actually the one betraying the nation, with the support of Gavin and possibly Brayden and the military, as well as the support of the new Dictatorial State of Saidlund. Regarding the whole mess, Ayden would say that "Those working against us will fall before our peaceful, open arms, or our armies". Joseph would tell Ayden that he was not with the rebels, simply pretending so that he could spy on them and issue an order for the military to turn on them. However, the whole thing would die down after it was found that Brayden was not actually starting a civil war, and that the whole thing was just several rumors that spread around, begun to fuel chaos within the nation. Joseph continued to claim that Brayden was guilty, and even attempted to threaten Ayden into forcing Kahlan H, Head of the New Pulaskian Secret Service during this time, to take Brayden into custody, though Ayden refused, telling Joseph that if he were to attempt anything that he would lose his job and possibly his citizenship, after which Joseph backed down. As the chaos calmed somewhat, Ayden would begin the long process of getting the government officers of the time to sign the Constitution, and would also begin a referendum on whether or not the Autonomous Province of Josentia should be dissolved, and also started another referendum to change the Pulaskian national anthem, submitting his own “Pulaskia, Land of Peace and Justice!” in an attempt to create a more memorable anthem. Around the same time, Ayden attempted to arrange a Supreme Court case for Brayden A, regarding his supposed order of an attack on Gavin M, Emperor of Aglesia, though it would never come to pass. Ayden would also continue to update MicroWiki pages on Pulaskia and continued to badger government officials to sign the Constitution.

Constitutional Era

On December 1, 2022, after around half a month of slowly getting enough government officials to sign off on it, the Pulaskian Constitution was ratified, and a day of celebrations commenced. Though these celebrations were short, peace had mostly returned. Anthem voting continued, with Ayden’s submission tied with Dia B’s suggestion of “It’s Pulaskia!” based off of the at the time popular “Corn Song”, but by the 9th it had concluded, with “Pulaskia, Land of Peace and Justice!” coming out on top, despite a lack of sheet music for instruments intended to be present, meaning that the new anthem could not be implemented, though Ayden soon began to work on it. Ayden would also involve himself in the first attempt at creating a Pulaskian News series of videos to accompany the Times, though the plan for it would ultimately fade into obscurity. Ayden would also end up involved in a case of blackmail, in which he attempted to stop VP Kahlan H from spreading information he claimed was false about him and Rebecca D, resulting in a heated argument between the two, though they would eventually settle things, just in time for the BMS 2022 Glow Dance. Ayden, Kahlan, Rebecca and Dia would all be in attendance, and Ayden would also be able to strike a deal with Gavin M, Emperor of Aglesia, to cease his referring towards Pulaskia as an “asset” instead of an ally. As the new year commenced, Ayden would fall ill over break, with a false alarm “rebellion” that occurred while he was sick, thought to be a plot by Rebecca and Kahlan, that very nearly caused great chaos and caused Ayden to mobilize the military and police and leaving Joseph C in charge for 2 hours before he called the mobilization off. As January continued, Ayden would also request Rebecca D and Gavin M to sign the Pulaskian-Xaidian-Aglesian Non-Aggression Treaty, though it would not be signed before Xaidia would unify with Pulaskia later on. Ayden would also attempt to restart the Xaidian Atlas alongside Rebecca, as it had previously fallen out of publication, though these efforts failed.

Era of Oppression

Many Pulaskians, including Ayden, were shocked by BMS assigned seating arrangements that arrived in late January. Outrage was sparked, as friends were torn apart and Ayden began to urge people to resist by refusing to eat school breakfast and, later, school lunch, and would participate in the school’s January Student Council meeting, during which he would side with the unanimous vote to petition for repealing the assigned seats. Meanwhile, Ayden would facilitate the planning of the 2023 Elections, establishing his candidacy for the positions of President, Minister of Media and Minister of Admissions, and continuing on with the Liberal Party, and he would also plan with Joseph to create a possible Pulaskian team for the upcoming dodgeball tournament. However, outside circumstances would greatly affect all of this, when the principal of BMS began to restrict the amount of time students could spend outside and separated boys and girls when they were allowed out. This affected the planning of a Council meeting for February, which was planned and was already facing obstacles, slowing it further. However, overall things continued. Ayden attempted to conduct a census around the same time, though it would be unsuccessful due to limited responses of citizens, and would continue to push candidates forwards in election campaigning. As February turned to March, a Council meeting was finally held on the 7th, with Ayden successfully advocating for the full integration of Xaidia into New Pulaskia and the dissolution of the Ministry of Media.

Era of Change

As April began, things were mostly calm. Apart from a small incident during which Gavin M, Emperor of Aglesia, used Ayden’s email to attempt to start a civil war, things were peaceful. Ayden would begin to educate new Pulaskian and Aglesians, Houston R and Grace H, on the regional micronations and their situation, and he would continue to campaign hard for election as President, while continuing to face the logistical nightmare of the 2023 Elections. As May drew nearer, Ayden would open the Mabelvale Dig Site (a misnomer, which was later found and fixed, becoming the Sardis Dig Site), and would help fend off a rebellion at the site, known as the Cannon Rebellion (after the main rebel commander), with the defense only barely succeeding when one of the major rebel commanders, Maddox T, would betray his side, resulting in a rebel defeat in the First Battle of Nancy Pond. Ayden would also grant Joseph C and the NMSA access to the dig site soon after, though many glass artifacts collected would later be lost in a brief second battle at the site, with Ayden not there to protect them. The President would pledge to reopen the dig site, though with far more precautions than had been in place before, and would also approve the creation of Task Force Alpha, an elite force to protect the nation. Not long after, Brayden A, Minister of War, would declare the new nation of Kalossia, with Ayden rushing to establish diplomatic relations and ensure that the nation would be protected, also discussing plans for dealing with Gavin M and Aglesia, which had subtly threatened the new Republic, involving either invasion or overthrow of the Empire from within. As election voting commenced, Ayden would also lead the nation through the disastrous Fall of Gmail, which heavily impacted New Pulaskia and the elections, attempting to calm fears and clinging to the hope that it was temporary, creating the Country Talk Google Doc to facilitate government conversation and keep the nation functioning. The nation itself would also continue to hang on, and the 2023 Election results would be announced with little fanfare. Ayden would take the Presidency once again, and as the Era of Change ended, the Era of Peace, and a second Presidency, would begin.

Second Presidency

Era of Peace

Pulaskia would soon settle into another summer lull, with Ayden not participating much in nation building during this time, though he would continue to update Pulaskian MicroWiki pages, as well as developing pages for other nations, but would return to nation building somewhat as the school year began. Things were peaceful at the year's start, with the only major action taken by Ayden being to remove inactive citizens from the Country Talk Google Doc. though Ayden would appoint his cousin, Maddox T, to the position of Head of the Pulaskian Air Defense Force, and facilitated the annexation of land in southern Arkansas, creating the new Calhoun Territory on hunting land. By December Ayden was preparing for a 2024 Census, which would begin in February as election preparations began once more. Ayden would restart the Times in February as well, as it had been inactive due to little activity within Pulaskia on the whole, and he would begin to bring in several new citizens to the nation as well. Along with all this, Ayden would announce another bid for the Presidency, along with his candidacy for Capital Territory Representative, and would also begin planning a Council meeting for February. As February neared a close, Ayden would also restrict the powers of the NMSA, forcing it to become the NSA (National Science Administration), in order to simplify the complex and delicate system that existed due to the NMSA and the Ministry of Defense sharing power over military affairs. A short crisis in early March, when Joseph C protested in favor of the newly proposed 5 Position Act, which was framed as a rebellion, though Ayden would accept an apology from Joseph and told him that he understood the strange situation. Ayden would also receive competition in elections, with Leo L, a new citizen, stating that he may run against Ayden, though he would later drop out in favor of Sophia B, another newcomer, and Ayden would also meet with Gavin M, Emperor of Aglesia, on March 6 in order to determine the situation of Kalossia on Country Talk, briefly resulting in every single Kalossian being removed before Brayden A, Kalossian President, was reinstated on it. On March 12, a Council meeting was finally held, with Ayden mainly championing a change in the national flag, receiving a darker green stripe, and subdivisional flags, as well as pushing to undermine the Aglesian regime in order to change that nation into a democracy. As March neared a close, Ayden continued to encourage election registration for provincial positions, and also dealt with rumors of a cult, the result of the creation of the SSoP (Secret Society of Pulaskia), a short-lived space for reform ideas, which Ayden participated in for most of its brief existence, and he would also begin to manufacture “I Voted” pins for the elections, with the help of Addie H and Taylor B. As April began, the April Council meeting would take place on the 3, with Ayden initially voting for Kahlan Higgins' proposition to remove foreign leaders from Pulaskia in order to stop them voting in elections, though both he and Kingston M, Presidential Advisor, expressed their regrets on voting in favor of the decision, both saying they felt somewhat pressured to do so, and just a day later, Ayden would veto the decision, claiming it to be unjust, though anger from both sides, of Kahlan and Gavin M, the leader most affected, would result in Ayden declaring that a "People's Council" meeting would be held, to mediate between the two sides, though this never came to pass. As April continued, Ayden would also manage to secure an alliance with the Kingdom of Hakoi, and agreed to gift the young nation a small plot in Port Royal, Garland Terr, to construct an embassy, as well as to internationalize Fort Lazer, Calhoun Terr. He would also work hard at updating MicroWiki pages during this time, and was accused of being manipulated and corrupted by Kahlan H into removing an editor, Leo L, from the election voting form, due to his notification to Kahlan of her incorrect voting form, which was not properly filled out, though these accusations were mostly ignored. As May approached and elections neared a close, Ayden would go on leave for a cruise, leaving VP Kahlan H in charge from Friday, April 26 at 12:00 AM until 12:00 PM on Saturday, May 4, with Treasurer Maddox T on backup in case something went wrong and Kingston M reporting in, though Ayden would be offline for most of that time. However, unforeseen events would rock the nation during Ayden’s absence, and turned the beginning of a third Presidency into a disaster.

Third Presidency

Civil War

As May began, election results were announced, with Ayden easily taking the Presidency and Capital Representative position. However, another storm was brewing. On the evening of May 3, a new nation would appear on Country Talk, the Google Doc used by regional micronations: New Libertas. On the 4, Ayden would receive a message, the first in a series of many, as he returned from vacation: “We, the People’s Republic of Pulaskia, declare war on the territory of Xaidia for corrupting New Pulaskia”. With this message, the relative peace that had defined the past few months was shattered. The new Republic was soon officially known as New Libertas, but things were chaotic nonetheless. Joseph, the President of War of the new nation, stated that he had previously warned that rebellion and war would occur should corruption not be removed from Pulaskia, while Sophia, President of Peace, would tell Ayden that nothing bad would happen to Pulaskia as long as the rest of the nation didn’t get involved in the invasion of Xaidia, though Ayden refused to back down, instead stating that a declaration on one province was a declaration on the whole nation, and demanding that New Libertas back down instead. The same day, a long call was held between Ayden and New Libertan and Aglesian leaders. Though peace attempts were made, with both Sophia and Ayden wishing for peaceful negotiations, Ayden was unwilling to adhere to demands for him to remove Rebecca and Kahlan from office, as well as disband Xaidia and fork over control of several positions to Joseph and Sophia, being, quote, “forced to accept the inevitability of the war” which New Libertas threatened. Despite these threats, the demands, though they were not yet compiled, were rejected by Ayden, and a declaration of war was drafted and soon implemented, with Aglesia siding with New Libertas. A draft plan was rapidly created and slowly implemented for Pulaskia, attempting to grow the small army, which only just matched the size of New Libertas’ population. As Ayden continued to inaugurate officers, on the 7th, the first battle of the war, the Battle of Pencilton, took place, with Ayden clashing with Sophia B in a small skirmish at Bryant Junior High, with the battle ending in a stalemate followed by retreat, and both sides claiming victory. As the school year neared a close, meanwhile, one New Libertan demand was being given the go ahead by Ayden: court cases for those who had previously committed crimes were being prepared, namely for Rebecca, Joseph, Gavin and Kahlan, who had the most charges against them. As the summer began, meanwhile, Ayden would announce that the war would continue, and prepared to begin a MicroWiki summer overhaul, while also continuing to encourage other members of the BJHS Band to assist in writing the national anthem.
