Personality(What is your character like? How does he act? Atleast 2 well written paragraphs, Please.) and Political Views. :

Guesseppe is a very kind person, and is known to give away money to the people who need it. When a young pregnant woman, whoms husband left her, needed money, he practically threw money at her, as if it was nothing but lettuce. He is a very friendly person, often entertaining visiting foreign dignitaries in his private home in Tuscany, rather than in some large city.

He is a very sentimental person, and holds onto almost anything that people give him as a gift. He is also extremely thrifty, and has never bought a car that wasn’t “used” in his life. He doesn’t spend much money on clothes, and rumor has it that the most expensive thing that he has ever worn is a 700 dollar suit, despite his rich family.

His political views focus on the greater good of the Italian Empire and her People. He doesn’t let his own views, that aren’t good, effect diplomacy with other nations; although it is widely known that he doesn’t like African Countries one bit. He likes his Empire’s Neighbors, Germany and Poland, very much, and when the Italian Empire went to war with Germany, he publicly stated that “If we go to war with Germany, it could mean the un-raveling of the Italian Empire faster than the Third Reich.”

It is widely known that Guesseppe has a Vendetta out for "Secret Societies". It is believed that, should he become Emperor, he would declare war on Secret Societies, and hopefully obliterate them from the world. It is also known that he views the fact that the Governments of the world hide information from the people disgusting, and it is believed that massive ammounts of files of the Government would be released to the public should be become Emperor.

He also is of the view that the government should accept criticism from their people, for from criticism, comes knowledge and you can learn from your mistakes. As a wise man once said, "An error does not become a mistake, until you ignore it."


Character History (What has your characters life been like? What has he/she accomplished?):

The Franco Family, a family of arms-manufacturers and a family that had more money then most people in the Nation of Italy combined. You could say that the Franco Family supplied the Central Powers in World War One, the Axis Powers in World War two, and most of Europe with their weapons to this day with their factories. The Franco family, after all, supplied nearly 1 million jobs alone in Italy in the 1970s-1990s. War is a big business, and people get rich off of war.

Born into this rich family, was a fair-haired boy, weighing six pounds, four ounces, and 22 Inches tall. His name, you ask? His parents named him Guesseppe, Guesseppe Artendo Franco if you want his full name.

In his first two years of life, he moved very quickly, learning to talk at the age of only one and two months, and learning to walk at almost the same pace as he learned to talk, very quickly. His neighbors, also rather wealthy, viewed Guesseppe as a great jewel in the community, and many knew that he would become a great politician, or for that matter, a great musician, because one of the local elder violin players stated that he had the “Hands of Bach himself”.

The next five years of his life, Age three through age Seven, he went about living life as a normal, wealthy, child should live their life, playing with the local children, asking thousands of questions, many containing only the word “Why?”. He also seemed to enjoy the sports of Football, or Soccer as Americans called it, and the American sport that was catching on in Italy, Lacrosse. Although he was still extremely young, these two sports he enjoyed watching would have a big take on him.

During his 8th year of life, his parents signed him up for Violin lessons, much to his dismay, but he went with it. After two years of learning, he’d mastered the Violin, and could out-play his teacher, even though he was only 10 years old. Many of his childhood friends were also learning to play instruments at the rate that he was, some learning violin such as he was, some learning other string instruments, and others learning Brass instruments, such as the Trumpet and Trombone. His favorite songs to play are mainly Brahm’s Hungarian Dances, his favorite of all of them are No. 5 and No. 7.

Over the period of the next six years, he shifted his focus from his musical talent, to sports. He practiced day after day in soccer and lacrosse, and soon after he joined the teams of his town, and soon became the star athlete, in addition to the star musician, of his town. He was the main focus of his Lacrosse team, and during his final years in school, what Americans would call “High-School” he became one of the most loved students in school, due to the reason he was the main force in the school lacrosse and foot-ball teams, often being the reason those teams won their games.

After Graduating “High-school”, Guesseppe began to shift his focus away from sports, as they were no longer important, and back to his musical genius. He continued to spend hours practicing the violin, and improving his talent, no longer having a reason to say that he was “rusty” from years of not playing for hours. He went to the Local Institute of Culture nearby, explaining to his parents his choice by saying that a local Institute was just as good as a Institute in a far away big city, and that he was being thrifty with the family money. He was treated somewhat like a celebrity at the college, and it was also where he met the love of his life, Maria.

Maria proved to truly be the girl of Guesseppe’s dreams, for over three years, they fell head over heels for each-other, and got married. Once again, proving to Guesseppe’s thrifty-ness, and Maria’s kindness, they had a small wedding on the family property. He was 27 years old at that time. At the age of 28, his wife was pregnant, and at the have of 29, he was the proud father… Of twin boys, Whom he named Acheille, and Cesare.

During that same year, he was ecstatic, watching the Berlin Wall fall first hand, as he was visiting a friend in West-Berlin, he was one of the many thousands of people that knocked the Berlin Wall down, finding a sledgehammer in his friends basement, and helping to knock away at the wall that had separated the Berlinians for over 40 years. He took up the chance, and took home a few pieces of the Berlin wall. Later that year, one of the larger pieces of the Berlin wall, two portraits from the famed “Death Strip” portion of the Berlin wall, went up for sale, and Guesseppe purchased them up for a steal, only 25,000 US Dollars.

The Next three years were good for the Franco family, his twin sons were celebrating their third birthday, and Guesseppe’s relationship with Maria was as good as ever. But the year 1992, one year after the fall of communism as a whole in Europe, would stir up Europe more than it had for years.

1992 was the start of the August Revolution in the Italian Empire, the fight between the “Peoples Party of the Greater Italian Empire”, and the current Italian Democratic Government. Guesseppe tried to ignore the “revolution” as it was called, for as long as possible, but the year 1994 drew Guesseppe into the Revolution. That year, as his father stepped down from the position of head of the Franco Arms Company, Guesseppe stepped up, and, weeks later, he had a fateful meeting, that would turn his life, and eventually, the Italian Revolution.

One day, while busily working on Paperwork, Guesseppe was visited by two People, the two fathers of the Revolution, Giovanni Facilli, and Donovan De’Margo. Giovanni was the Constitutional Dictator-type of Governmental man, and Donovan, to Guesseppe’s disgust, was the Communist.

These two men wanted something that would turn the Revolution around in their favor, they wanted arms, they wanted small arms, they wanted vehicles, and tanks, they wanted planes and ammunition and tanks, and they could only pay with the hope that the Revolution would succeed, and eventually, the new Government would pay them back, plus some. Guesseppe made a difficult decision, and, after sending the two away, called Giovanni back, agreeing to this request. He was given, as a small part of the repayment, the position as the Third Father of the revolution. He opened up the world of better weapons to the Italian troops fighting against their oppressive government.

A year later, to the month, the Revolution was won, and it was won, using Franco weapons. The new government, under Giovanni, began to reorganize and re-build the nation. Over the next decade, Guesseppe watched the Italians become one of the most powerful economic powers in Europe, and, soon, the most powerful economic power in Europe, beating out the German economic power. During the end of the 2010s, in part because of the massive chaos in Europe, the Italian Empire expanded rapidly, taking over Austria, Lichtenstein, and Switzerland. And, as the year 2019 and 2020 came, the Italian Empire spread across Europe at a rate that hadn’t been seen since Napoleon.

In 2015, His family estate had burned to the ground, and only a few things were saved, which included strong-boxes, marble statues, and a few paintings that had been in the family for years. In 2017, after two years of living in an apartment, the Family purchased 650 acres(One Sq. Mile) from the Government for an extremely low price, as the 50-some owners had been communists, and had been routed from the nation after the death of the Communist father of the Revolution, Donovan De’Margo. He finally spent some of the families billions, building a beautiful house on the tallest hill in the 250 acres for 20 million, a small airfield for his personal 2 engine Cessna 421C, and spending somewhere near two million dollars on a private classic car collection, consisting of only two brands of cars, Studebaker and Mercedes-Benz.

To this day, Guesseppe maintains his position as a huge industrialist, his position as one of the three Fathers of the Revolution, the last one remaining, as both Giovanni and Donovan have passed on, and has sat on the seat of government, known to the world, As Secretary for the Goodness of the People. He maintains his Violin genius, and plays with the local senior band, a 16 member band that consists of elderly people of the new town he lives in, which mainly consist of people who are 60 years and up, in which he plays the violin. Many people describe his talent, with a simple phrase a Frenchman coined when listening to one of Guesseppe’s recordings. “If God played the Violin, Franco would play better…”.

He also usually wears a Tie Clip that was given to him as a gift from Giovanni Facilli, with the word "Libertá"(Freedom) inscribed on it.
