## Early life & run for office

Alamkan was born in Anchorage, Alaska, to Alamkan M. Countryball V and an unknown mother. He was raised with a very high standard of education to the power of his ancestor, Alamkan M. Countryball Sr, who was the Dean of the U.S. Congress, Dean of the U.S. Senate, President pro tempore eterno emeritus, and the senior U.S. Senator for Alaska at the time of Alamkan VI's entrance into university. Alamkan VI educated with a master's degree in political science, and soon ran for office for the Alaska State House's 29th district in 2076, winning the race and being sworn in January 2077. He soon rose to the role of Speaker of the Alaska House of Representatives in 2079, but soon took leave for a while due to the loss of his 5-great-grandfather to an assassination that same year. He returned to his duties 2 months later, and was re-elected as Speaker in 2081, though retiring in 2086 to run for U.S. Senate, seeking to fill the seat formerly held by Alamkan Sr. His name being familiar due to his association to Alamkan Sr., he beat the unpopular American Progressive incumbent in a landslide.

## Time as U.S. Senator (2087-2099)

In 2087, Alamkan was sworn in with the rest of his colleagues to the 150th Congress. He was immediately overloaded with work, with many Senators expecting Alamkan to be able to answer to his 5-great grandfather's legacy, yet he was met with disappointment when he was unable to meet most of his colleagues' needs. He was labelled critically by others, and was nicknamed "Shadow" by American Progressive Senators, who claimed that he was a shadow of his ancestor, who was revered by both sides for his work. Alamkan, however, tried his best to live up to the name, and eventually rose in popularity, with Vice President Based Politician, who was mentored by Alamkan SR., stating that the Senator had a "promising career".

Alamkan worked hard to provide Appropations for Alaska despite it's loss of it's extreme seniority. His expertise in Senate rules and debate woo'd his fellow Senators, with the Republicans considering electing him Senate Whip in 2091. However, this plan failed, as the incumbent whip, despite being unpopular, beat Alamkan on the final ballot by 2 votes. Alamkan did not lose momentum, and made a bid for the 2099 leadership, winning the first ballot by such a wide margin that no second ballot was counted.

## Senate Republican Leader (2099-2123)

Alamkan was elected Senate Republican Leader in 2099, with the Republicans regaining a slim majority. Alamkan was wildly praised for his speeches on the floor, and became a mainstream Senate conservative leader, with conservative members of the APP & NCP both praising him and working with him regularly. He passed numerous bills with ease, being nicknamed "Six-Barrel" for his fast, sharp, "piercing" thinking & style of speaking, similar to a bullet, as well as a play on his "VI" (sixth) suffix. He refused to seek the Republican nomination for President in 2100, despite a huge effort to "Draft Six Barrel".
