}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Mirielle le Marr&#039;&#039;&#039; is a former American politician and member of the [[Great Society Party]]. Noted for her term as [[Speaker of the House of Representatives]], her career ended suddenly after she resigned from all positions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Northern State Cabinet==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mirielle was first nominated to be a part of the cabinet of the [[Knox Denbrough|Denbrough Administration]], as [[Northern Secretary of Defense]]. After passing the [[House of Delegates]], she served this role for several months. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Later in her career. she was confirmed as [[Northern Secretary of State Management]] by the House of Delegates.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Party Leadership==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Marcus Moser]] was elected as [[Chair of the Great Society Party]]. During this leadership election, Mirielle was elected to the [[Great Society National Committee]], and was subsequently given the newly established position of [[Great Society Vice Chair of Policy]]. Following the role&#039;s quick abolition, Mirielle was made [[Vice Chair of the Great Society Party]]. A few months later, she would be elected as [[Chair of the Great Society Party]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==House of Representatives==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====First Term====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She was soon elected to the [[House of Representatives]], where she served as [[House Minority Whip]]. Following the arrest of [[Santa Claus|Speaker Santa Claus]], Mirielle ascended to the position of [[House Minority Leader]] once [[John Fincham]] was elected Speaker. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Following the taking over of the majority masterminded by John Fincham, Mirielle was made [[House Majority Leader]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Second Term====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As John Fincham decided to run for the [[United States Senate]], Mirielle ran for and was elected as the 93rd Speaker of the House.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==House of Delegates==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She was elected to the House of Delegates after this, and served half of a term.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Resignations==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On May 30th, 2026, Mirielle resigned as Speaker and as Representative, as well as a member of the Great Society Chair and National Committee Member, Delegate, and from all state cabinet positions. It is still unknown why she did this. Some right wing sources blame pressure from her fellow party members, but no evidence has ever been provided.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==July Comeback==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In July of 2026, Mirielle made a short return, serving out a partial term on the Great Society National Committee, before disappearing once again.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

The Democratic Working Families Party (abbreviated DWF or DWFP) is a left wing party founded by [[John Dean]]. It broke away towards the left from the [[Great Society Party]]. It was one of two parties during the [Left Wing Civil War of 2026]], against the Great Society Party. During this, major attacks on the incumbent Directors occurred. Evidence of the first Director, John Dean, was leaked, showing him attempting to rig the [[July 2026 Presidential Election]] in favor of [[Sandra Murphy-Colbert]], using the [[Respect for Democracy Act]], and later the [[Revised Respect for Democracy Act]], both of which were vetoed by Vice Presidential Candidate [[John Fincham|Governor John Fincham]], wo was a major rival to John Dean.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

The &#039;&#039;&#039;United Left&#039;&#039;&#039;, formerly known as the &#039;&#039;&#039;People&#039;s Socialist Liberation Party&#039;&#039;&#039; (more commonly referred to as to as the &#039;&#039;&#039;Socialist Party&#039;&#039;&#039;), was a former far-left political party founded in Late February of 2020 and officially disbanded in January 2021. The party was known for having members ranging from democratic socialism to various forms of communism.&lt;br /&gt;
At the time of disbanding, the party was not holding a seat in any political office outside of DC Council. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
__TOC__&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Early History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The United Left (initially named the People’s Socialist Liberation Party of America) formed soon after the death of the Labor Party, and just a few days after the new Social Democratic Party (initially named the American Liberal Party). The founding members of the United Left were Trash, Starcomet, dfads, Naan and Moose, comrade skeleton, Benja, and M1ghtyThor94. In the first leadership election for the party, Trash was selected as Chair, while dfads and Chris McLean were the first NCP members. From formation, there was a close relationship with the SDP/ALP.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Early on, the party was relatively successful, winning one House seat and one Senate seat out of 3 members running for Congress in March 2020. The March party election ended with Trash going uncontested, dfads winning reelection, and jogod taking McLean’s place in the NCP. In the April state election, jogod won a Dixie general assembly seat. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The April Party election had then-record turnout. Trash successfully won Chair re-election against Epsilon966 by a large margin, dfads won re-election over Soviet Squidward, and IndyPrez unseated jogod to claim a seat in the NCP. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==The Squidward Scandal==&lt;br /&gt;
In the May federal election, Soviet Squidward made multiple contentious claims on twitter and in debate about North Korean labor camps, China’s treatment of the Uyghur Muslims, the Holodomor, and, worst of all, he came out as a Dengist. Within a day, the United Left had voted to expel him from the party, although not before a wave of criticism was directed at the Chair and party more broadly. Additionally, prominent members Politophile and Epsilon966 very openly criticized the leadership, with the latter leaving the party soon after. That election did not go well for the United Left. This also resulted in the SDP/ALC cutting off ties with the United Left. Historical revisionism was added into the constitution as a recognized reason to ban a member from the party. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Slow But Steady Growth==&lt;br /&gt;
Politophile joined the NCP by beating jogod in the party’s first ever NCP special election due to membership growth (for every 10 new members, the party adds another NCP seat). The May Chair election saw Trash come out on top against IndyPrez. In a slightly controversial decision, the party allowed former Federalist and American Solidarity Party member JMP to join after he switched to mutualism. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The party was growing in membership, but electoral success evaded its members. The state election in June saw just one member, jogod, win a state legislative position. The SDP-UL partnership was reinstated. The June party election ended with Trash and JMP winning unopposed, while Politophile beat El_Presidente for the last NCP position. The Vice Chair position was created, and Chair Trash appointed Noodleborn. The DC election resulted in a House of Representatives seat for El_Presidente. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tragedy struck in July after Chair Trash accidentally submitted federal election candidates to Jet instead of Lamport (because Lamport was temporary head mod for a few days), and although he tried to correct himself 20 minutes after the deadline, an exception was not given. Only a handful of members ran in that election since they had to manually sign up within 12 hours and with little notice. However, despite this setback, the United Left achieved two important results: first, Trent won a seat in the House over an experienced opponent, and second, Trash won Dixie in the Presidential election, which spoiled Libertarian candidate Jack Coulter’s chances of winning. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Changing Times==&lt;br /&gt;
The July party election saw all members of leadership win re-election. A fourth NCP seat was added for membership growth, which was won by Lina Cafe over Trent. A few days later, the Chief Strategist position was added to the constitution, which MichiganLefty was appointed to soon thereafter. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the next two weeks, the United Left won three concurrent special elections, two state legislature seats in Jefferson (codegreen and Trent) and one in Dixie (Lina Cafe). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the departure of JMP to court, and the departure of jogod from public life, MichiganLefty and SmashNGo won special elections to be on the NCP. Justin replaced MichiganLefty as Chief Strategist. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The August state elections were a failure for the left broadly, but especially for the United Left. Poor coordination led to just one victory, Lina Cafe in DX-7, out of 11 members running. The next party election saw major changes. Trash beat Justin for Chair, and all NCP members were uncontested except Lina Cafe, who lost to NotAName. The party’s name was changed to United Left, and the logo was changed. Changes were made to the party’s platform as well. &lt;br /&gt;

The &#039;&#039;&#039;State of Dixie&#039;&#039;&#039; is composed of the former states of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, West Virginia, and Kentucky, plus the former territory of Puerto Rico. With an official population of approximately 125 million, Dixie has long been seen as a predominantly conservative state but has in recent history moved left in politics. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The State of Dixie was formed during the great change to the United States. One of three original states, alongside the North and Jefferson, Dixie was formed in what would be known as the &amp;quot;Old South&amp;quot; which it&#039;s name also originates from. The first Governor of the newly created states would be [[Nomad]]. The state adopted the laws and regulations of the old state of Texas and uses an General Assembly unicameral legislative body called the [[Dixie General Assembly]]. The state used to operate a bicameral legislative body but the Dixie Senate would be abolished in 2020. The current Governor of Dixie is [[John Fincham]], a member of the [[Great Society Party]].&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
The &#039;&#039;&#039;Speaker of the United States House of Representatives&#039;&#039;&#039; is the presiding officer of the [[United States]] [[United States House of Representatives|House of Representatives]]. The office was established in 1789 by Article I, Section 2 of the [[United States Constitution|U.S. Constitution]]. The speaker is the political and parliamentary leader of the House of Representatives, and is simultaneously the House&#039;s presiding officer, &#039;&#039;de facto&#039;&#039; leader of the body&#039;s majority party, and the institution&#039;s administrative head. Speakers also perform various other administrative and procedural functions. Given these several roles and responsibilities, the speaker usually does not personally preside over debates. That duty is instead delegated to members of the House from the majority party. Neither does the speaker regularly participate in floor debates.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Constitution does not require the speaker to be an [[incumbent]] member of the House of Representatives, although every speaker thus far has been. As per the Presidential Succession Act of 1947, the Speaker was second in the line of succession to the presidency, however after it was ruled unconstitutional by &#039;&#039;Rincewind vs United States&#039;&#039;, the position is no longer in the Presidential line of succession. The current Speaker is [[Hailey French]].&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

John was born in the [[North]], in the region of New Jersey. He was born to his father, [[Weldon Fincham]], and his mother, [[Elizabeth Fincham]]. As a child, he was interested in politics, frequently doing research on the subject. While on a trip to Salem, Massachusetts, he met and befriended [[Knox Denbrough]]. In 5th grade, John moved to [[Dixie]], specifically the region of North Carolina, due to his father having inherited Fincham Castle, which is located there.

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Political Career==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Kolette Winters&#039;&#039;&#039; is an American politician who resides in [[Jefferson]]. Known for serving as [[House Majority Leader]], as well as [[Dean of Parliament]], she is noteworthy as a highly infuential politician.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Early Career==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kolette&#039;s career started with her election to the [[Jefferson Parliament]] in a special election against [[Koko]] and [[Winston Peters]], winning with 68.87% of the vote. The first term, however, was short, as the general election was days away. Kolette was reelected here, against Koko and Winston Peters again, as well as [[Iron Pandit]]. She won with 56.61%. This immediately made her [[Dean of Parliament]], as her previous colleagues either did not run for reelection, or lost.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She soon, however, was elected to the [[House of Representatives], where she served for several months. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Career High==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Following [[Mirielle le Marr]]&#039;s election as [[Speaker of the House of Representatives]], Kolette replaced her as House Majority Leader. This gave her much more influence over the proceedings of the House. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During the nomination of [[John Grant]] for [[Vice President of the United States]], however, Kolette was noted as &amp;quot;back and forth&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;indecisive&amp;quot;, initially failing the nomination. Following intense discussions among [[Great Society Party]] Leadership, the nomination was reconsidered and passed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This event drew ire onto Kolette, which caused her loss during her run for the [[United States Senate]], losing to [[Michael King]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She was later reelected to the Parliament by a slim margin, and continues to serve as Dean, and was nominated and confirmed as [[Jefferson Secretary of Agriculture, Conservation, and the Environment]] during the ongoing term of [[Sandra Murphy-Colbert]] as [[First Secretary]]&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

Its capital is Chicago. Formerly the political home of the [[Communist Party]], the North was recognized as being predominantly left wing, having supported the [[Progressive Party]], the [[Communist Party]], the  [[Labor Party|Labor]] and later on the [[Social Democratic Party]], before the resignation of Governor Tedd Ddet and the rise of right-wing figures such as [[Pepper Potts]] and [[One-Eyed Jack]] moved it for a time into toss-up state, at one point possessing a [[Libertarian-Republican Party]] majority in the Delegation. Recently, Left-wing politics have returned to be the dominant force in Northern Politics, with the resignation of Pepper Potts and Tedd Ddet from the Governorship and Lieutenant Governorship respectively wiping out all right-wing presence in the state entirely. In recent years it has continued to support leftist parties, most notably the [[Great Society Party]].

[[File:North.jpeg|right|400px|]]The &#039;&#039;&#039;Northern State&#039;&#039;&#039; is a state comprised of the Regions of Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New York, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and Wisconsin. Its capital is Chicago. Formerly the political home of the [[Communist Party]], the North was recognized as being predominantly left wing, having supported the [[Progressive Party]], the [[Communist Party]], the  [[Labor Party|Labor]] and later on the [[Social Democratic Party]], before the resignation of Governor Tedd Ddet and the rise of right-wing figures such as [[Pepper Potts]] and [[One-Eyed Jack]] moved it for a time into toss-up state, at one point possessing a [[Libertarian-Republican Party]] majority in the Delegation. Recently, Left-wing politics have returned to be the dominant force in Northern Politics, with the resignation of Pepper Potts and Tedd Ddet from the Governorship and Lieutenant Governorship respectively wiping out all right-wing presence in the state entirely. In recent years it has continued to support leftist parties, most notably the [[Great Society Party]]. Currently, however, the [[House of Delegates]] features a majority of the [[American Forward Party]], a right wing party. Its [[Governor]] is [[Knox Denbrough]], and the [[Lieutenant Governor]] is [[Liam Carson]].&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

[[File:North.jpeg|right|400px|]]The &#039;&#039;&#039;Northern State&#039;&#039;&#039; is a state comprised of the Regions of Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New York, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and Wisconsin. Its capital is Chicago. Formerly the political home of the [[Communist Party]], the North was recognized as being predominantly left wing, having supported the [[Progressive Party]], the [[Communist Party]], the  [[Labor Party|Labor]] and later on the [[Social Democratic Party]], before the resignation of Governor Tedd Ddet and the rise of right-wing figures such as [[Pepper Potts]] and [[One-Eyed Jack]] moved it for a time into toss-up state, at one point possessing a [[Libertarian-Republican Party]] majority in the Delegation. Recently, Left-wing politics have returned to be the dominant force in Northern Politics, with the resignation of Pepper Potts and Tedd Ddet from the Governorship and Lieutenant Governorship respectively wiping out all right-wing presence in the state entirely. In recent years it has continued to support leftist parties, most notably the [[Great Society Party]]. Currently, however, the [[House of Delegates]] features a majority of the [[American Forward Party]], a right wing party. Its [[Governor]] is [[Knox Denbrough]], and the [[Lieutenant Governor]] is [[Liam Carson]].&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Bass&#039;&#039;&#039; is a Northern Politician, and a member of the [[Great Society Party]]. They are the current [[House Majority Leader]] and are a former [[Speaker of the House of Representatives]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Early Career==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bass&#039;s career started off on a high note, with them becoming a member of the [[House of Delegates]], as well as a member of the [[House of Representatives]], in February of 2026. The next month, Bass would pass the nomination for [[Northern Secretary of State Wellbeing]], nominated by the [[Knox Denbrough|Denbrough Administration]], as well as being elected [[Deputy Chair of the House of Delegates]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Mainstream Politics==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In April of 2026, Bass was elected as [[Chair of the House of Delegates]], allowing her much greater influence across politics. In May, Bass became [[Deputy House Majority Leader]], appointed by [[Kolette Winters|Majority Leader Kolette Winters]]. She also replaced [[Liam Carson]] as [[Dean of the House of Representatives]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A few weeks later, however, the resignation of [[Mirielle le Marr|Speaker Mirielle le Marr]] forced a Speakership election, during which Bass was elected against [[Huton A. Hill]]. She also became [[Dean of the House of Delegates]] during June 2026.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In late July 2026, the [[Great Society Party]] lost the House Majority, and as such the Speakership. Bass became [[House Minority Leader]]. In late July, however, [[Hailey French|Speaker Hailey French]] had a falling out with the [[Democratic Working Families Party]] Majority, and recognized the Great Society Party as the majority, resulting in Bass becoming [[House Majority Leader]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In August, [[Bassonomics]] became a major point of discussion, as the great economic policies of Bass led to growth and recovery. In the middle of the month, Bass was nominated for and confirmed as [[Northern Attorney General]], after passing the [[Bar Exam]]. She went on to represent the [[North]] in [[North v. Carson]], as well as being suspected of being behind the scenes during [[Carson v. North]]. This was during the Denbrough Administration.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
==Life==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Early Life====&lt;br /&gt;
John was born in the [[North]], in the region of New Jersey. He was born to his father, [[Weldon Fincham]], and his mother, [[Elizabeth Fincham]]. As a child, he was interested in politics, frequently doing research on the subject. While on a trip to Salem, Massachusetts, he met and befriended [[Knox Denbrough]]. In 5th grade, John moved to [[Dixie]], specifically the region of North Carolina, due to his father having inherited Fincham Castle, which is located there.
