== Biography ==
=== Early Life ===
Born on April 20th, 1727, in Seville, Spain, Samuel never knew his parents, as from the accounts of the head of the orphange, all Samuel had from when he was baby was a small scrap of paper that read: "Take him." 
In the orphanage, he learned to read at the age of 7 and write at the age of 12, Samuel was fascinated by the teachings of John Locke, Montesquieu, and Rousseau, instilling the sense that any man, of any background, and any lineage, could be important.
At the age of 16, Samuel ran away from the orphanage he was left in, as he feared never being adopted. From there, he took a caravan to Switzerland, where he had been approached by then-King of Switzerland; Matthew O'Malley. Matthew then took the young Samuel under his wing, where he learned how a government worked. He saw great kings such as Matthew O'Malley, Tyler Crossbones, and William Seasteel rise in power, and lead Switzerland into the golden age, despite the war that ravaged Europe; The Paradoxian War.
