Chelovek Serebra-Reach

Chelovek Serebra
Chelovek Iz Serebra is a statesman and political thought leader in the United Socialist States of Eldham who is currently serving as the 5th president of the union, and first General Secretary (the position of president being abolished). A member of the Communist Party, Serebra previously served as the Commissioner of Justice, and Mayor of Vostroya. He was born to the Serebra family in a small cottage in the (at the time) autonomous region of Atoxa.

Early Life
Chelovek Serebra, was born to a poor family in the mountains of Northern Atoxa. His father of the same name was a coal miner from Vostroya, his mother Alyana Ivanov was a peasant farmer.

Chelovek struggled in school, and had trouble getting along with his classmates. He was known as a quiet kid, who buried his head in books far beyond his age group. Chelovek became interested in politics at a young age and wrote his first paper criticizing the oppressive government of Uldarash at the age of 14.

The Kunir War
Chelovek, still a young man at the age of 16 could not join the Peoples Army to fight against Newkunir during the Kunir War. He later cited that he blamed the loss in the war on himself. "I convinced myself that, had I only been there, things would be different." Chelovek stated in an interview with the Vulpin Tribune. Tragedy would strike the Serebra family when the young Chelovek, angered by the nations defeat, tried to attack a military patrol whe were pillaging his family farm. As punishment, the officer in charge of the patrol locked him and his family in the barn and set it on fire. As the flames closed in, Cheloveks parents shoved him into the storm shelter below the barn, which was only big enough for one person. Both of his parents perished in the fire and Chelovek was orphaned. "I was completely devastated. Not only had our great nation lost at the hands of the imperialists, but I had lost my parents who I so dearly loved. I blamed all of this on myself, I felt I had to do something." Chelovek would later say.

Early Career
When he graduated high school, Chelovek immediately joined the Peoples Army of the U.S.S.E as a field medic. He would later tell that these years were the most grueling he had ever experienced. Due to the loss to Kunir, the military was disorganized and demoralized. Chelovek would later leave the military, believing that the only way he could bring about change is through joining the Communist Party. The first thing Chelovek did after his time in the army, is move back to his father's home town of Vostroya (USSE).

Many of Cheloveks friends thought he was silly for returning to an abandoned and pillaged town. Many referred to him simply as "strange wall man" due to his obsession with rebuilding the wall in Vostroya. Though many others saw hope for the future hearing of his efforts. A few came to Vostroya to help in the reconstruction. Eventually the town grew to a level larger than even before the Kunir War era.

Comissioner of Justice
Chelovek was proud of his work in Vostroya. Though he stated that he "felt there was more to do in the U.S.S.E than just fixing Vostroya". He would soon run for Comissioner of Justice, his first federal level political office. Due to his reconstruction of Vostroya he was very popular and won in a landslide, his opponent only getting 7 votes.

Chelovek set eyes on what he believed was an incomplete justice system. He singlehandedly wrote the civil code and rewrote the criminal code. He soon found out that there were no checks and balances in his office. After announcing the news laws that he wrote, he expressed in private channels how uncomfortable he was acting without democratic consent. He then learned that a new friend Pogge Richtoffen was attempting to rewrite the constitution, and the two would work closely ever since. They both shared a desire for more representation and accountability in the government, and wrote this into their new constitution. Midway through his time in office, president Quintus Solokov would announce that he was not running for a second term. Chelovek saw this as an opportunity to bring about real change, and ran for the presidency.

Presidential Campaign
Chelovek announced soon after his political rival Gaboliver Urabon. He believed that the position of president in its current state was a dangerous one. A position that could be abused by the wrong person. Chelovek ran on the ideology referred to as Xeroism, or sometimes Xeroism-Solokokovism, with his brand coined as "Chelovek thought". His platform stated that Xeroism had clearly shown its superiority to Aboniertism, the older ideology of the CPUSSE, in that it rebuilt the nation to an unprecedented level.
