Alamkan M. Countryball Sr

##### This article is about the **President pro tempore eterno mortuis of the U.S. Senate, U.S. Senator from Alaska-Yukon**, as well as former U.S. Ambassador to Japan & Poland, Emperor of the North and Emperor of Alaska, 47th POTUS, VPOTUS, Secretary of Veteran Affairs, Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, and President of the Republic of Alaska. For his son, former **U.S. Representative**, Governor of Alaska and President of the Republic of Poland, see **Alamkan M. Countryball Jr.**

**Dr. Alamkan Mycran Countryball Sr.** **[House of Anchorage]** (**アラムカン ポーランドボール**, "Aramukan Pōrandobōru") (January 16, 1819 - April 30, 2094) was an Polish-American-Roman politician, businessman, entrepreneur, pilot, Civil War veteran, and Alaskan statehood activist who served as the **47th President of the United States** from **November 6th 2048** to **January 20th 2049,** and as the **56th** **President of the United States** from **January 20th 2085** - **January 20th 2093**. He, however, more famously served as a long-time U.S. Senator from Alaska-Yukon from *07/01/1853 - 21/05/2032**,** 03/01/2035 - 18/01/2041**,** 18/11/2042 - 18/03/2043, 03/01/2053 - 24/12/2054, **and** 03/09/2059 - 11/01/2085.*

He was the **Governor of Alaska Territory** from *18/10/1852 - 07/01/1853*.

His official Japanese mononym is **アラムカ.** (pronounced Aramuka)

He was the longest serving member of Congress in all of U.S. history. He was the **dean of Alaska's congressional delegation,** being it's only dean, other than Sarah Palin, who was dean from 2051-2053. (The longest-serving congressman from the state). He was also **Dean of the Senate**, and **Deputy President pro tempore**. He is Alaska-Yukon's longest serving senator. He is the longest serving Dean of the Senate in history, serving for over 118 years, and the longest serving President pro Tempore in U.S. history, serving for over 111 years.

Alamkan voted in favour of the Civil Rights Acts of 1866, 1870, 1875, 1957, 1964 & 1968.

He came out in favour of legalising homosexual relationships all the way back in 1902, which almost lead to his censure & an assassination attempt from a member of the KKK.

He also changed his views on foreign & internal policy, backing the Truman Doctrine. He was nicknamed the **"Bering Front Commander"** for his controversial anti-communist statements during the 1940s, condemning the Allied Powers for helping the USSR, and strongly opposing the formation of the Iron Curtain, believing that Eastern Europe had the right to democracy. He nearly caused a war during an event where a Soviet commander threatened to invade Alaska. 2 years later, the commander visited the U.S., just for Countryball to begin beating the commander up, until he was dragged away. No presses were charged, and the visit resumed as normal, with the commander stating that he took no issue with the situation, but Alamkan refused to apologize. He was nicknamed the U.S.'s "Most Problematic Senator" in 1983. However, despite his huge efforts for national defense, he began to moderate in the late 1990's, post-Gulf War, with the exception of Afghanistan, which he supported the war for, until 2006. Alamkan opposed the Iraq War, and opposed further interventionism past then. His old hawkish views worked well with a close personal friend of his, Henry Jackson of Washington, a Liberal Democratic Senator who helped define neoconservatism.

He was also a long-time **U.S. Ambassador to Japan**, serving from *28/05/1953 - 13/03/1961*, *03/07/1969 - 02/02/1977,* *15/05/1989 - 01/04/2001, 12/04/2013 - 18/01/2041, 18/07/2041 - 11/11/2044 & 12/01/2061 - 20/09/2073*. He was highly popular in Japan, nicknamed "北の友達 **/** 北の友人" (Kita no tomodachi**/**Kita no yūjin**,** "Northern friend"), due to his Alaskan heritage. When he was kidnapped by the Nazis during the 2050s, the Japanese government sent the first major rescue mission for the Senator, although he was soon captured by the Germans returning to the U.S. from Tokyo. He was known for connecting with the locals, and made many visits to the country. He served for 71 years, by-far the longest serving U.S. Ambassador to Japan. He had an approval rating of 88% across Japan by the time he left office for the last time in 2073, when he was fired from all federal roles by President Astro.

He was also the U.S. Ambassador to Poland from *19/04/1983 - 12/02/1989.* He had mainly Polish heritage, and was very popular with the Polish. His involvement in the fall of Communism in Poland lead to him being awarded Poland's highest honour, the *Virtuti Militari*, by president Lech Wałesa in 1991. He was a strong supporter & ally of Pope Jon Paweł II, and, to protest the Communist's ban on displays of public religion, created a scandal in 1984 where he knelt down next to the Communist leader, Wojciech Jaruzelski, and started to publicly pray. This caused his popularity in Poland to soar, and President John Guthrie chose to keep Alamkan as Ambassador, rather than replace him with a new appointee. He had an approval rating of 85% across Poland by the time he left office in 1989.

Combined, he served as a U.S. Ambassador for 77 years.

Nicknamed "**The Old Man"** by his Senate colleagues, referred to as **"the Ancient Statesman"** by the media, he was known for his extreme longevity, as he was the final living member of Generation Alpha, as well as it's only incumbent Senator from 1913-2085. He also wielded significant influence, having served in the Senate for over a century. Alamkan directed hundreds of billions of federal dollars to build the Alaskan Bullet Train System with two acts. Alamkan has co-sponsored many acts, even those with no relation to him or anyone around him, due to his wish to support his fellow congressmen.

Due to this, he is considered **the most powerful person in recorded human history**, since his extreme seniority & prevalence gave him power over everyone, including leaders of international nations, and the chiefs of secret services. This ended up giving him almost god-tier control over international affairs and the affairs of numerous nations. He used this power to pass the Great Alaska Plan to invest **over a trillion U.S. Dollars** into Alaskan development, with each bill passing with minimal opposition from either chambers of Congress.

He is often considered the most powerful Senator in U.S. History, having brought over a trillion USD to Alaska in less than a decade, and serving for over 2 centuries.

He previously served as **President pro tempore of the U.S. Senate** from *11/04/1874 - 04/03/1881 **[56th],** 04/03/1883 - 04/03/1893 **[58th]**,* *04/03/1895 - 04/03/1913 **[60th],*** *04/03/1919 - 04/03/1933 **[63rd],** 03/01/1947 - 03/01/1949* ***[69th],*** *03/01/1951 - 03/01/1959 **[71st],*** *03/01/1979 - 03/01/1985* ***[77th],** 03/01/1995 - 06/06/2001* ***[83rd],** 23/11/2002 - 03/01/2007 **[85th],** 03/01/2015 - 21/05/2032 **[89th],** 03/01/2035 - 18/01/2041 **[91st],** 18/11/2042 - 18/03/2043 **[93rd],** 03/01/2053 - 24/12/2054 **[95th],** 03/09/2059 - 03/01/2071 **[98th],** and 20/01/2081 - 11/01/2085 **[100th].***

He previously served as **Dean of the U.S. Senate** from *11/04/1874* *- 21/05/2032**,** 03/01/2035 - 03/01/2041**,** 18/11/2042 - 18/03/2043, 03/01/2053 - 24/12/2054, **and** 03/09/2059 - 11/01/2085.*

His Senate historical rank is **505**.

He served in numerous presidential cabinets, serving as Sonic Heely's **Secretary of Veteran Affairs** from 2065-2073, and as Astro's **Administrator of the EPA** from 2073, until he got fired 2 months later due to disagreements over nuclear energy.

He previously served as the first & fourth President of Alaska (24/12/2054-01/11/2055) and (21/03/2059-03/09/2059). He was also God-Emperor of Alaska (03/01/2057 - 31/08/2059) and Eternal Emperor of the North (31/10/2057-31/08/2059)

He served as Vice President from 2044 to 2048, First Minister of the Dominion of North America/Canada-Alaska (2032-2034). He also served a very short stint as acting Governor of Montana in 2040; whilst serving as U.S. Senator of Alaska.

He held dual citizenship in America, Poland and Rome. He was an *honorary* **Roman Senator**, having being granted the role on November 20th, 2067.

He was a member and the patriarch of the House of Anchorage, thus being the father of the former Governor of Alaska and President of the Polish Republic, Alamkan M. Countryball Jr., and the great grand-uncle of Jack H. Brown, the junior U.S. Senator of Georgia. He is the eldest son of former activist and political advisor Wojciech Countryball.

He was represented by Mycran within the sim.

## Early political career, advocating for Alaskan purchase & Civil War

He had been advocating for the Alaskan purchase since 1850, and, with the help of his very wealthy father, pressed the president, John Young, to purchase the land off of Russia. However, Alamkan was determined to make Alaska a state immediately, so he begged the Cabinet of John Young, eventually kneeling before Young along with numerous businessmen & natives during a cabinet meeting to plead, promising to look after the territory with the military if they got immediate statehood, an event known as the Sitka-Washington Affair, Young, sympathizing with the message of the boy, but also interested in the business his wealthy father could bring, along with the promise of gold which Alamkan had privately discovered yet not disclosed to the public, and the backing of the Cabinet, President John Young gave in and admitted Alaska as a state in 1853. His advocacy for the purchase earned him the nickname "Mr.Alaska".

Alamkan's national political career started when he was elected to the U.S. Senate as one of Alaska's inaugural Senators in 1853. In his first few terms as senator, he made efforts to modernize the state, placing railways around the state's more populated areas, including the capital, Sitka.

### Civil War

Alamkan was a devout Radical Republican; staunchly pro-Union, believing in the complete abolition of slavery and the protection of the Freedmen's rights, decreeing in 1862 in a fiery speech to the Senate that *"Dark-skinned, fair-skinned, all are one under the eyes of the Lord."*

He called the Confederate Secessionists "traitors", and, once authorized by the Senate, joined the Union Army in 1863, fighting under the command of Ulysses S. Grant & William Tecumseh Sherman. He...

## Later political career

He was a large force in getting Governor Walter Hickel appointed as Secretary of the Interior of in George Romney's administration. Hickel served from Jan 24th 1969 to Nov 25th 1970 as Secretary.

After 9/11, he played a key role in increasing military presence in Alaska and funding defences. He also founded the Alaskan Solidarity Front in 1998 in an attempt to give a voice to Alaskan workers in national affairs which concerned the state and the state's clout in national politics greatly increased. He received criticisms and accusations such as pork barrel spending and being too old to serve.

He secured funding for a highway between Anchorage, Fairbanks and Juneau and served until 2032, with the British-American War. He was appointed First Minister of the Dominion of North America and served until Alaska's liberation. He was elected yet again for the U.S. Senate in 2034 and came into office January 3rd, 2035. He served until 2041. He was the TTP Vice Presidential nominee in the 2040 election, and the Romulan-Alamkan ticket won a historic landslide against the incumbent Clinton-Teddy ticket, with 386 electoral votes.

He soon was killed and ascended to a higher dimension (see HDA). He then won a major landslide in the 2042 U.S. Senate election for Alaska, winning 99.1% of the popular vote and every single borough. He then resigned in 2043 due to health issues, and was appointed as the new Vice President in 2044 to the new President, Addison ReFollow, who was replacing the resigning Romulan.

## Friendship with Robert Byrd & Strom Thurmond

Alamkan was a good friend of many of the racist southern Liberal Democrats, such as Robert Byrd of West Virginia & Strom Thurmond of South Carolina. Alamkan was especially close with Byrd, working with him on multiple projects and defending Byrd from criticism. Alamkan, however, was not a supporter of segregation, despite his father, Wojciech Countryball, being an avid white supremacist.

Alamkan delivered an eulogy at Byrd's funeral.

Alamkan later married Ciara Byrd in 2044, a distant relative to Senator Byrd.

## Friendship with Daniel Inouye

Alamkan's closest friend in the Senate, however, was Hawaiian senator Daniel Inouye. Inouye had gotten in trouble for endorsing Alamkan before, and Alamkan had gotten in trouble for endorsing Inouye, although both had been very close friends for many decades and had co-operated on numerous projects. They were seen as an unstoppable force, and were often grouped together. They voted for each other's bills and both influenced each other's states, as well as their own. They both were very passionate on fishing rights, and supported the fishing industry in the 2 states, something which boosted both of the states' economies. Multiple nicknames for the duo were given, such as the "Outsiders" and the "Pacific Pals".

The both of them bonded over their fight for their states, which were often seen as resources, rather than proper states. They were quite different in their ideologies and personalities; forming the perfect yin and yang balance for the states they represented in the Senate.

Inouye and Countryball were both WW2 veterans, with Countryball being one of the first American pilots, known as the Flying Tigers, to fly over the hump to deliver resources to the Chinese nationalist army, lead by Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek. His feats were known in China, and his support within China was relatively high. Inouye would accompany Countryball in his visits to China, often tiring himself out with Countryball's constant touring and journeys around the large nation. Inouye wasn't as healthy as Countryball, and struggled with the constant journeys and expeditions Alamkan would go on, however, he pushed forward, and Inouye later commented quietly to Countryball: "It was the time of my life. Way too tiring, though."

Alamkan and Inouye once had to share a bed on a flight with many senators, and when questioned whether it was true, Inouye quickly replied "Yes, but it wasn't consummated.", leading to loud laughter from both of the Senators and from the media reporters.

They both had many more trips together with other senators, with many jokes. They considered each other brothers.

Alamkan gave an eulogy at Inouye's funeral, stating that Inouye was "One the greatest friends I've ever had.", and ending his address with "I miss you, brother."

## Senate career (1853-2003)

Alamkan was well respected upon his entry to the U.S. Senate in 1853, being a familiar name with many of the other Senators already.

Alamkan chaired the Senate Rules Committee (1995), Senate Governmental Affairs Committee (1995-1997), Senate Appropriations Committee (1981-1987, 1995-2001, 2002-2005.)

Alamkan became Party Dean upon Charles Sumner's death in 1874, and thus became President Pro Tempore. He regained the role once the National Conservatives won the majority in the 1946 Senate Elections, serving until 1949. He would become PPT yet again following the 1950 Senate Elections. He served in the role until 1959. He regained the role in 1980, 1994, 2002, 2014, 2034, 2042, 2058 & 2080.

He returned to the role following the National Conservatives regaining the majority in the 1994 Senate Elections. Alamkan served in this office until Jim Jeffords (NC-VT) switched to an Independent Democrat on June 6th, 2001, transferring the **51**NC - **49**LD National Conservative majority into a **49**LD **(+1 ID) (+VP)** - **50**NC Liberal Democratic majority. He then regained the role on November 23rd, 2002, following the 2002 special election in Missouri.

## Younis Riots

As President, Alamkan pardoned the Younis Gang, believing them to be of no threat. After a lot of rioting, the Younis Gang was subdued. The (now former) President released a public apology and spent over $300 million of his personal fortune to help recovery efforts and surgery for injured officials. The UN considered raising charges but ultimately chose not to.

## Listeria battle

On May 14th, 2049, Alamkan contracted Listeria disease from consuming contaminated meat after a trip to McDonalds. He fell into a coma a day later, on May 15th. On August 30th, he came out of his coma and recovered from the disease. There were numerous conspiracy theories about how an 168 year old survived a disease with a near 100% mortality rate for healthy people, but there was no evidence of foul happenings. He was discharged from the hospital September 2nd and no longer has the disease.

## Party Switch

Alamkan became increasingly upset with the direction of the party he founded as he left the Chairmanship. After the Alaskan Independence Party was formed, there were inflammatory comments from General Sherman and Azula ReFollow stating that they'd "burn it down" (referring to the state of Alaska) and "hang the traitors". These comments eventually lead to his party switch towards being an Independent caucusing with the NDP in 2050. This lead to other Rally Party members leaving too, leading to a crisis within the party and the ultimate dissolution of the Rally Party. He retained his conservative positions, however.

He later switched to the New Collapsafarians a year later, stating that while his experience in the NDP has been great, the ideological differences had been too much. He later switched back to the NDP despite of these differences.

## Presidential voting record

Alamkan's presidential voting record has been mostly red, however there are a few notable exceptions. He voted blue (Jimmy Carter) in 2012.

## Filibuster Record

The long-time record for longest single-person filibuster was Al D'Amato's 1986 filibuster of the Defense Authorization Act, when he filibustered for 23 hours and 30 minutes. However, soon after Jah introduced the "Abolish the Environmental Protection Act of 2068", Alamkan decided to filibuster. After Senate Majority Leader Knowun yielded the floor, Alamkan spoke for 29 hours and 24 minutes. Alamkan encouraged the incoming freshmen senators to work together, while also supporting the EPA and Alaska. Alamkan encouraged the new Senators to not be afraid of taking big steps, bringing up examples of his own bills to support his state, and subsequent bills inspired by his ventures, including Connor Burns' $60 billion bill to clean the Mississippi River.

In 2071, Senate Minority Leader Knowun beat his record, filibustering for 34 hours and 20 minutes.

## Alaskan Independence

Originally leaning towards opposing independence, Alamkan became one of it's strongest supporters and helped keep control of both sides. He pushed for a referendum and after a deal with President Beto O'Rourke and Vice President Astro, the referendum was held. Independence won with 87.5% of the vote and eventually the Republic of Alaska was proclaimed. Alamkan was immediately sworn into office as President of Alaska, with his fellow former senator Sarah Palin as Vice President. Independence came into effect December 24th 2054, the same day he was sworn in. Palin was confirmed and sworn in December 26th.

## Higher Dimensional Ascension

His vice presidential tenure just before his 2042 landslide was cut short when he ascended to god status in a higher dimension. He brought many 4d shapes back into the 3rd dimension as he descended shortly after. He made friendships with higher dimensional beings and could speak many higher dimensional languages fluently.

## Presidency (2048-2049)

After losing the 2048 election, President Addison ReFollow resigned, leaving the Presidency to Alamkan. Alamkan released a record-shattering number of executive orders, creating many national holidays such as "National Liberty Day", "Based Trans Day", "Alaska Appreciation Day", "Based Selina Day", and many others. He abolished taxes for people earning under $100k a year, removed all gun control for a short while before reverting decision and instead removing the gun tax. He pardoned the Younis Gang and replaced the Nixon memorial with the Younis memorial. He set up a Martian colony named the "Binky Interplanetary Plan" and sent a jar of dog feces to the moon. He signed the "Children's Voice Act" and "Watch me whip, Watch me nae nae Act of 2048". He renamed Pennsylvania Avenue into Viktor Boulevard. He also pardoned Rowan Marx for accused necrophilic acts with Eugene, back in 2028. Many people ranked him as a top-tier President, but his tenure's popularity faded with the Younis Riots.

## 2080 presidential campaign

Alamkan announced his 2080 presidential campaign in 2073, recieving the support of many candidates. However, his campaign started to gain traction in 2075, recieving endorsements from many large figures such as Skyler Debs, Romulan Benoit, and Chairman Wabbit. Alamkan was all set up, but was soon subject to harsh attacks by the opposing Melon campaign, even dropping out for a short time in late 2076 due to the attacks.

### Controversy

Alamkan made a contract with President Astro, where Alamkan would back Astro in 2072 and 2076, while Astro backed Alamkan in 2080. However, Astro decided to endorse Melon instead, which lead to Alamkan to take his anger out on Astro. Alamkan argued that people like Astro & Melon were back-stabbing ingrates, who had no appreciation for all the work he did for them. They responded that Alamkan was a hot-headed liar. Alamkan eventually got the support of many more people in MEGS, since they had all been hurt in some way by Astro & his friends, who they labelled as a cult. Alamkan has described the lot as "sociopathic back-stabbing bastards with no morals or gratitude". Multiple people came to the defense of Alamkan, arguing that Melon's constant attacks and slander of a man who people held in such high regard for his dedication to the simulation was causing the death of the sim itself.

## Death in 2055, legacy & revival

While driving to the city of Utqiagvik on November 1st to give a speech, his car tire punctured and his car slammed at full speed into a tree. He was killed in the crash. Tributes flooded in from around the world, and an announcement was made by his presidential office. He was affectionately referred to as "Mr. Alaska" by some and a casino in Las Vegas was named after him.

Vice President Palin was sworn in as President on November 1st, 2055 and won election to a full term in the 2056 Alaskan election.

He was later revived by Senator Sonic Heely.

### Funeral

The funeral was held in Anchorage, with 14.5k people attending. Many special guests arrived, and they were listed publicly. Notably, POTUS Astro, VPOTUS Melon, widow Ciara, former POTUS Beto O'Rourke, President of Alaska Palin, Prime Minister of Alaska Ike, and multiple members of the Countryball-Brown family.

His office released a playlist of songs he liked to listen to. The songs' release dates have a large range in years, reaching from the early 1960s to the early 2010s. The songs saw a small rise in purchases across Alaska once first revealed.

## Crowning as King/God-Emperor of Alaska.

On the 3rd of January, 2057, Alamkan was revived and was quickly awarded the ceremonial role of King of Alaska by President Chasity following a vote. This title had no official duties or powers, but still granted him considerable influence. It was later renamed to God-Emperor via vote.

## North Star Federation

As God-Emperor of Alaska, Alamkan pushed for a federation between Alaska, Canada, Iceland, Greenland and Norway. This proved to be popular amongst the people and governments of each nation involved. He was crowned as "Eternal Emperor of the North", and the federation spanned nearly 15 million square kilometers.

Alamkan went on a tour of Canada and met with Canadian PM Beto O'Rourke.

## Return as U.S. Senator and subsequent term.

Independence started to lose popularity, and protests began in Fairbanks. Soon, the protests fell into full brown riots, and the Alaskan Union Front was formed shortly after. They assassinated the highly unpopular Mayor of Fairbanks, which lead to major controversy within Alaska. Alamkan abolished the Alaskan monarchy and abdicated from the Northern monarchy. Once approval for independence dropped below 50%, he began speaking with President Melon to negotiate Alaska's re-entry as a state. Melon accepted, and Alaska became a state. POTUS Melon appointed Alamkan to the Class 2 seat, and Mitama Yakumo to the Class 3 seat, and they became Alaska's 2 U.S. Senators, and both were sworn in on the same day Alaska's statehood was ratified; 3rd September 2059. Alamkan and Mitama both announced their plans to run for their seats in their 2060 special elections.

### Entry & Portrait unveiling

Alamkan was welcomed in by his fellow U.S. Senators with a standing ovation and cheers. Manchin referred to Alamkan as "having the comfort of a grandpa" due to his seniority, age, and stories. He immediately got to work, voting on many bills and proposing his portrait be placed in the Senate Leadership Portrait Collection within the Old Senate Building. This request passed, with 4 aye votes, 0 present votes and 0 nay votes.

### Run for President Pro Tempore

Alamkan soon put forward the suggestion of an election for the now vacant President Pro Tempore seat. He was not a member of the majority party, but he was the most senior senator in the chamber by a margin of over 140 years. The election passed with 11 aye votes, 1 present vote and 0 nay votes.

Alamkan started serving when there were only 32 states (Alaska included), and, by the time he was assassinated, there were 56. This meant that Alamkan had voted on statehood for 24 different territories. Alamkan voted aye on all of them, with the sole exception of D.C., which Alamkan argued should not become a state because it was one sole city.

Alamkan served as PPT and Dean of the Senate for longer than the 2nd, 3rd & 4th longest serving congresswomen/men served in total, combined.

The Penny Tax (2059)

Author: Cristian Fernández Valencia (BM-PR)

Notes) Due to past constitutional limitations, the Abolish The Income Tax did not pass. However, a 0.01$ Tax, LOWERING the Income Tax that is, is completely Constitutional. For that reason I propose the following:

Section 2) An exploratory committee on alternative sources of income.

## Early & Personal life

Alamkan was born on the 16th of January, 1841, in Picayune, Mississippi. His family moved to Sitka in 1867.

He got a PhD in 1864 in Political Science & Government.

### Involvement in brothers' political career

His father, Wojciech Countryball, fathered 4 half-brothers of Alamkan. They were all much more progressive than their elder brother, which lead to disdain from their father.

##### Robert

The eldest one, born in 1894, Robert Countryball became Governor of Alaska in 1946, with the help of his elder half-brother, now 105; the incoming President pro tempore of the U.S. Senate. Robert ran numerous times for the U.S. Senate, each time for the Class 3 seat, becoming the National Conservative nominee in 1938, although being defeated by the incumbent Ernest Gruening. Robert appointed himself to the Senate in 1953, but lost re-election in the 1954 special election when he was primaried in an upset by Mike Stepovich, despite his elder brother's efforts. Robert return-primaried Stepovich in 1956, but lost re-election to Bob Bartlett in 1962. Robert would then lose the 1966 primary for Governor to Walter Hickel, since he entered the race so late that Alamkan had already endorsed Hickel, unaware of his brother's intention to run. Robert became his brother's Chief of Staff in 1967, serving until his retirement in 1978. Robert died in 2009, something which left Alamkan so distraught that he didn't show up to a single Senate session for the rest of the year, returning at the beginning of the 2010 session.

##### Hudson

The youngest one, born in 1912, Hudson Countryball became Hickel's running mate in 1966, eventually becoming the appointed U.S. Senator once Bartlett died in 1968, losing his bid to complete the term in 1970. Hudson was much more problematic than his other brothers, being convicted in 1985 of tax evasion.

### Marriage & children

Alamkan remained unmarried until he was 225, but still announcing the birth of his son in 1932. A federal investigation was place, but no mother was ever found. He married former governor & senator of Idaho Ciara M. Byrd in 2044, and they remained married until her death in 2069.

## Political views

He was generally regarded as a conservative with libertarian leanings and had a mostly right-wing voting record, with the exception of a few votes. His views have changed a lot over time, as the evolution from 1950's to 2050's conservativism took hold. His most conservative values were his views on abortion, anti-communism and the economy, while his most progressive values were his views on LGBTQ+ rights. He was a staunch anti-communist and had spoke out against leftist ideals before.

He was criticized for his views before, especially by animal rights organizations for his constant promotion of the meat & fishing industries. He has also been praised, as his views built most of the modern conservative platform. He remains popular on both sides of the aisle however, regardless of his views.

## Arrests & legal trouble

2008: 12 counts of home invasion in Ohio from 2002-2007. (Death penalty, later acquitted)

2030: Tax fraud, wire, obstruction of Congress, conspiracy against the U.S. Government (1 hour in jail, later found innocent)

2049: Driving a tank into a ditch offroad. ($1,500 fine, tank confiscated for 1 month.)

~2072: Shooting cola bottles in public with some strong mints (3 months in jail, pardoned by President Heely)

2076: Blasting NWA's "Fuck Tha Police" outside of the Juneau Police Department (1 year in jail, appealed, found innocent)

## Electoral history

See Electoral History of Alamkan Countryball Sr. for his electoral history.

## USS Alamkan M. Countryball Sr.

President Melon authorized a U.S. Navy DDG-128 destroyer to be named after him. The boat was deployed on September 1st, 2060.

## Nazi capture and rescue

Despite advice from his peers, the 240 year old Alamkan registered for the 2059 Europe War. He was soon captured and taken captive by the Nazi forces, who forced him to wear Dream merch.

### First attempt at rescue

Alamkan's wife Ciara sent her son from another marriage to come save him, although he was later re-captured.

### Second attempt at rescue

Alamkan was taken in the night by Japanese troops and taken on a Japanese ship to Tokyo. 69 American ships accompanied the Japanese ship for defense, as well as 100 decoy ships. Once Alamkan arrived in Tokyo, he took a tour, although he was later kidnapped by Nazi spies during the tour and taken back. He was moved to a higher security cell, although Cristian Valencia placed a tracker on him, so the secret location was exposed.

### Third attempt at rescue

Chase Empsall showed up in a wheelchair, defeating the Nazi guards in combat, and bringing Alamkan home. This proved successful, and Alamkan soon returned to Congress, where he was met with a standing ovation by both chambers, who were having a joint session at the time.

## Plane accidents

**1978 -** Alamkan was flying on a plane to meet with the team of Mike Gravel when the plane got struck by heavy winds, and he crashed. Alamkan was one of 2 survivors, and was heavily dazed, entering a dream-like state. Alamkan later hobbled into a committee meeting in crutches and bandages, and yelled at Gravel, leaving the meeting silent and Gravel highly upset and very regretful.

**2032 -** As First Minister of Canada & Alaska, Alamkan flew to Quebec to speak with seperatist leaders. On the way, Alamkan's plane crashed. Alamkan was killed, and a wave of support came from leaders and people around the world. Alamkan would later be revived.

**2066 -** Alamkan was flying his own plane from his house in Utqiagvik to Anchorage, when he drifted south-eastwards (bearing ~80\*) and crashed east of Anchorage. Alamkan was found quickly and rescued, taken to a hospital where he received treatment. Alamkan was soon electrocuted by accident and was placed into a critical condition.

**2067 -** While being flown back to his home following his release from hospital, his plane scraped the ground, tearing off a wheel. No one was majorly injured, and Alamkan was reported to be fine, although a little shaken up.

## Total money raised for Alaska

(Figures start from 1995; does not include money raised before.) [Note: Exactly a trillion of these dollars were raised from 2061-2069.]

## Great Alaska Plan (2061-2069)

###### Main Article: Great Alaska Plan

Alamkan introduced the Alaskan Interstate Motorconnection Act of 2061, which brought in $475 billion for a new Bullet Train System. Alaska's population started to explode, and Alamkan introduced more and more bills to fund the state and deal with the explosion. In 2069, he introduced the Alaskan Services Act, the final piece of legislation for the Great Alaska Plan. The Great Alaska Plan added up to exactly 1 trillion USD. The plan was decreed by the "Citizens against Government Waste" as the "largest pork project that will ever be devised." Nevertheless, the plan worked, and Alaska became a much larger and more successful state.

Alamkan was fierce in advocating for his bill, solidifying his method of getting votes. Alamkan made promises, flattered people, shamed people, and insulted people personally, to get his bills passed. He received some criticism for his ruthlessness and over-seriousness, but never-the-less got each of his bills passed with very little opposition, due to his tactics.
