== The Dycus Family ==
The Dycus family originated from a small family distantly related to Prussian Royalty. In 1525, when Prussia was founded. A small farmer family, the Dijkhuis from Belgium, had immigrated to Prussia. The family last name was then translated to Dutch, Dykhuis, and then translated to German, Dieckhaus. In 1543, Nikolaus Wolfgang Dieckhaus married a distant cousin of Frediereich III, married a woman named Elsebuth. The 2 then purchased a farm 40 miles away from Konigsberg, the capital of Prussia. After many generations went by, in 1608 the first German immigrants would immigrate to America, specifically New York. In 1626, after 83 years of the Dieckhaus family living on their farm, Johannes Heinrich Dieckhaus, who had recently married the daughter of irish peasants, that had only recently moved to Prussia, decided to go on the 2nd ship of immigrants to America, never to see his family again. Johannes and his wife Ailbhe (Elsa in Gaelica) moved to New Amsterdam under Dutch rule. They then built a home in the town. It wouldnt be until 7 years until after their indentured servitude that they would travel with 60 other townsfolk to establish their own farms in what is now upstate new york In 1722, the Dieckhaus, now Dycus family had established a series of factories across NYC. After decades of economic growth by owning these factories, and after the US became independent, they would go on to become one of the largest slave owning family in the US During the American Civil war, Henry Bredford Dycus, a former 3 star Confederate General, and Union 4 star General, established a 1,700 acre plantation in Cuba, where he transported 749 of his former slaves from Lousisiana, to Cuba, illegally. Henry Dycus would go on to have a son named Arthur, born in 1867 on Cuba, in a hospital in Havana. When Arthur was 31 years old he fought in the Spanish-American war. He would later fight in the Phillipine - American War, Boxer Rebellion, and World War I. Arthur's brother William and John also fought alongside him in war. Arthur would later die of Tuberculosis in 1916 at the age of 49. John would go on to live until 1947 dying at the age of 60. And William would be the last brother surviving, having had a son named Robert (Robert H Dycus) and other children later on, where he died at the age of 72 in 1952 and then later Robert himself committed suicide in 1959 at 61

=== Early Life ===
Robert Haroldson Dycus, was born on the 14th of December, 1897 in Daytona Beach Florida. Robert had an excellent childhood, due to his family being rich and influential. Robert would spend his early childhood at the beach, or at one of his families many properties. As a child, his aunt taugh him and gave him a basic education, such as how to read, write, and other stuff. His father taught him basic skills a man should know, such as how to fix a wagon wheel, chop down a tree, hunt, detect different plants, and much more. 
When Robert was 14 he was sent away to Europe for 6 months. He stayed in Germany and Ireland, however he liked Germany more. After just 4 months of being in America he went back to Germany on his own, staying with his Aunt and Uncle. He met a girl named Margaret and they started courting.

Robert enjoyed the life of being a simple farmer on his families land in East Prussia. He had taken up an interest in Ships, Trains, and Aviation, and the newly invented Automobile. This prompted him to learn how to draw where he made up designs for fun. He tried to get patented a design for a car that could drive on traintracks, but he couldn't find any investors willing to invest into his idea, and so he returned to drawing and being a new father whilst working on his families land.

Thomas Douglas Dycus, and Anne Dycus. Later in 1924 he had his daughter Bethany Dycus, and in 1925 his final daughter and final child Josephine Dycus. Robert eventually became rich on his own by leasing land and investing into businesses. He then was able to buy 400 acres worth of farms that surrounded his. 
Having become increasingly rich, he decided to get into politics as he could afford funding campaigns, rallys, and other functions and events. He attended a party in Munich where he met a man named Adolf Hitler. Shortly after he donated 25,000 German Papiermark. He then joined the Nazi Party, as he believed it would restore order to Germany. He started to attend speeches, rallies, and events hosted by the Nazi Party. Soon, he would begin to increasingly give more support to the party. 
He eventually became wealth enough to hire people to work on his farm, and he eventually had an Estate built for his family on the land. Soon afterwords he created a small beer company where he spent his free time brewing up recipes and selling it in local villages as a side job. However eventually he got bored and starting only making it for himself.

Eventually Robert re-entered the German Military in 1927, where he would go on to get promoted. In 1931, he eventually became an officer to the German Military. He started donating more to the Nazi Party, and started gaining recognition amongst people in the party. In 1932 he was promoted to Captain. He was gaining recognition in the German Government and Military, and things were going great for Robert and his family. However, in 1933 when Hitler became Chancellor he was promoted along with others. He then became a Major in his promotion.
In 1935 when the Wehrmacht was formed he became a Lieutenant Colonel. He fought for Nazi Germany in the Spanish Civil war from 1936 to 1939, and was gifted medals.

In 1940 a year after living in the UK him and his family finally returned to the US. 
Robert would enlist into the US Army and fight against Nazi Germany, earning many medals and even a purple heart. Robert would eventually retire for good from the military and attempted to live a normal life in the US.
== Re-entering Politics ==
=== Connally, Texas ===
After Dycus retired from the CIA, he entered politics. His first job as a politician was City Councillor for Connally Texas. Connally texas was a town created by Jonas Holstadt and Walt Disney, along with others (including Robert Dycus). Connally is a town northeast of Dallas, Texas. It was made an official town by Fmr Gov. William Rainach of New Austin. William Rainach was a cousin of Robert Dycus, and he was executed via firing squad after plotting for a dixie rebellion and US coup, which was the ANP Scandal.
The ANP scandal involved William Rainach, his Native son in law Cuahutemoc Azcatlan, Walt Disney, and other minor players involved in the movement. The ANP was eventually reformed as a subparty by Robert Dycus.
=== Becoming Lt Governor ===
Robert Dycus was appointed as a Lt Governor by Fmr Gov. Walt Disney. Walt Disney, became Governor after Fmr Gov. John Connally resigned, making his Lt Gov. Walt Disney the governor. Eventually, Walt Disney resigned himself as Governor of New Austin, making Robert Dycus governor. As governor, Robert Dycus did reforms for Native American rights, and he created/dissolved multiple Reservations across the Commonwealth.
However, his successor Allan Shivers revoked all his Executive Order, which removed all Native American righs previously given by the Former Governor. 
=== Becoming a Senator ===
Later on, Allan Shivers would appoint Robert Dycus to the US Senate. However he would only be Senator for a short bit, as the midterms quickly came. This did not allow for the Senator to do much in the Senate. But it would only be a short amount of time before Robert Dycus would be in power. 
=== Becoming DNC Chairman ===
Eventually, he ran for DNC Chairman and won in a landslide election, he eventually appointed current Governor Alexander Orlov to the position of Vice Chairman, and Georgia Von Bush to the board as an advisor. However, Dycus was the runningmate for Sen. Harry Byrd, and he eventually dropped out. This angered Senator Byrd where he made lies against the DNC Chairman. And when Dycus tried removing him from the party, Byrd called for a vote of no confidence in the DNC Chairman. This however, obviously failed due to the stupidity of the Senator. Currently, Robert Dycus remains the DNC Chairman and is running the party alongside Alexander Orlo
