Age: 37

Gender: Male

Position: leader of Germany

Personality: Johann is a generally kind person, using kindness with his people. During times of great decision, very unemotional, dedicated to thinking. In war, fierce, destructive, ruthless, cold. His friends that know him say he is one of the best men you could ever be friends with. Will help you out of tough situations, except treason. Even more ruthless with traitors than foreign enemies. Personally executes many traitors, though only after fair trials. Also is currently negotiating with rebels.

History: Born in the glorious city of Leipzig, in the year of 1983, Johann was raised in a climate of change, only 6 when the Berlin Wall fell down, and 7 when the Inner German Wall fell, he was now able to learn new things he never would have thought available. His school was quickly changed to teach the new values of the Western World, getting placed in the Gymnasium, and after graduating, went to the University of Leipzig, studying law, philology, and social sciences.

After his education in Germany was done, Johann moved to the United States for awhile, learning more about German history, and became especially intrigued in the 1923, ending in 1945. A year later, he felt his studies were complete, and moved back to Germany, joining the Bundeswehr, and the Fallschirmjagers, getting stationed in Koblenz, Germany, where he served faithfully for years, earning the trust and admiration of everyone around him.

Soon after Johann became the newest commander of German Army Forces Command, to the excitement of virtually every Bundes Soldaten, the German government was suddenly destroyed, by terrorist bombings, simultaneous. This left a power vacuum, filled by Johann, and Dieter Kruger, head of the Joint Operations Command of the Bundeswehr. This lasted for about a year, with Kruger staying indoors, breeding rumors of anti-social tendencies, and plots to take over the government for himself, while Johann was out around the country, gaining more and more people using speeches similar to Hitler's, claiming that he had become nearly powerless, the German people were betrayed by the terrorists, stuff like that.

In the year 2019, Johann finally got his wish. The people spontaneously invaded the Reichstag, where the government was located, killing Kruger, and many of his supporters. In the aftermath, nearly everybody chanted, yelled, pleaded, anything, for Johann to be the sole leader of Germany. Even though this wasn't planned by Johann, it couldn't have turned out better for him, and on March 14th, 2019, Johann was officially accepted by the people as the sole leader of Germany. As his first decree, Johann made his official title Fuhrer Fallschirmjager, in honor of the Fallschirmjager he loved so much, and the uniform he wears resembles the uniform worn by the Fallschirmjager during the Second World War, albeit with changes in designs.

By January 1st, 2020, Germany was the most prosperous country in Europe, it's only rival to economic power was the United States, and predictions estimated that Germany would become number one by 2030. Germany also had one of the most powerful militaries in the world; air, land and sea. Johann still enjoys popularity by most of the people, and has plans for helping out Africa and destroying the TAAS once and for all, for they are believed to be the terrorists who destroyed the last democratic German government.

June 21st, 2019

Johann streched, to the chorus of popping joints, in the early mornings of dawn, at around 0420 hrs. His habits from his service days were still with him, apparently, but that was good, more time in the day to get things done. He walked to the kitchen to make himself some breakfast, not liking other people to make his food, reason being Johann enjoyed making food. He didn't like eating out much, and almost always made his own foods, even growing some fruits and vegetables in a greenhouse for fresher ingredients. But he would allow other people to make his food, for banquets and such. Usually, nobody else was awake, so Johann was surprised to see Fredrich Fromm, his Chief Security Officer up already, brewing a pot of coffee. "Good morning Fredrich. What brings you up so early?" Johann asked, as he started making the eggs, fired eggs. Fredrich looked up from his coffee machine. "Just woke up, sir, for some unknown reason. Maybe a bad dream. I decided to make some coffee, it will be ready in a few minutes, if you want some, sir." Johann looked up from his eggs just long enough to shake his head.

20 minutes later, Johann was sitting at his table, Fredrich across from him, drinking his coffee. Fredrich was looking a little worried. "Fredrich," Johann asked. "Is there something on your mind?" Fredrich looked up at Johann, a worried look in his eyes. "Well sir, I'm just afraid that you might be in danger. We've recieved threats ever since your installation two months ago, on your life. Mostly from people that wouldn't worry us, but about a week ago, we got a message from the who we think is the TAAS that they would kill a former Bundestag member, Katja Kipping, if you didn't step down. Now, similar threats had been made before, of course, none of them were carried out. But yesterda, Kipping was assassinated. We caught the assassin, and he was possibly a TAAS operative. Now you're threatened. I think you should stay here for awhile."

By this time, Johann was finished with his eggs, and walked over to the sink to clean his plate. "I kind of wish I could, Fredrich. But that would be bad for image. I don't want to become like Kim Jong Il, only seen a few times. I want to let the people know that I care about them, and besides, I have the utmost confidence in you and your teams. Don't worry. I won't be assassinated. I'll live my live in peace, dying of old age. I have to go out, and you guys will protect me. I know you will." Fredrich just looked out the window, where it was starting to rain, and hoped that his men could protect Furher Blauvelt.

An hour later, Johann was driving to the Reichstag, to start a day of adminstrative duties, singing along to Zehn Kleine Jagermeister on the radio, how his mother would cringe if she could here him today, God rest her soul. He was sandwiched between 5 cars in the front, 5 in the back, and about 20 other vehicles in the surrounding streets, all from Johann's security teams. Everyone was confident, except Fredrich, that Johann was safe and sound, suddenly, a lone bullet penetrated Johann's engine, causing the car to crash into the Brandenburger Tor, surprisingly. More gunshots rang out a minute later, coming from the security force, while a few of the men from car 5 ran up to Johann to make sure he was ok, and to get him out of the area, where terrorist agents were starting to swarm in and fight back the security team.

Johann woke up a few minutes later, to discover that he was in an armored vehicle, driving toward the Charité Universitätsklinikum. He shook his head to clear the fog that was forming, and after a minute, managed speech. "What happened to me? I remember a bullet crashing through the car engine, and almost crashing, and now I'm here, at the Charité Universitätsklinikum." The person in the back with him, Corporal Jannson, handed Johann a blanket, who was starting to shake. "You crashed into the Brandenburger Tor, you might have a concussion. Just sit still, we'll take care of you." The morning staff at the hospital had ran out to meet the vehicle, and carefully rolled Johann into the hospital. Later that day, Johann was able to make a speech over the radio and T.V. condemning the terrorists who ahd attacked him this morning, ensuring that he would be able to return to the people tomorrow, and stirred up patriotic emotions in the German people

Despite this being one of the better examples of an application, theres a few issues with it that prevent it from being accepted.

For starters, there already was a leader of Germany thats been disregarded in this posts history. Now, him and his Kaiser have been absent from the forum for some time and he has given every indication that he doesn't get a placeholder anymore, so I'm fine giving you Germany without a rebel leader as would be protocol, for say, an active leader.

Having said that, while the German position is well and open, we can't disregard that there was a civil war and the Kaiser re-established through said war, and that Germany went through some pretty bad times in a period you said was one of its strongest. Thus some recognition of those events will have to be given even if just briefly.

If I recall Luxembourg was vassalised by the Italians and Austria handed over (on permission of another admin) to the Italians. So unfortunately, you'd have to arrange it with the respect leader of Italy for those places, if you have not done so already.
That being said, you'll have to justify them giving up their independence, as despite their strong relations to Germany, ethnically, linguistically (substantially less so in Denmark) and culturally, they have quite well established national identities with fiery nationalism that has made itself present particularly in modern history. Its kind of like.. say... America joining England, they have the same state language, a common history but they're very different and very passionate of their own nationality. Perhaps say, Canada joining America or vice versa as well if you want a example of nations on the same border.

Theres another can of worms thats not so much a breach of rules but that could be jarring to immersion, for example such as, a fuhrer, it seems like the world will need a few more centuries until it stops associating a lot of bad connotations (rightfully placed) on the word Fuhrer and the respective things implemented good or bad, in his era. While Führer means leader or guide and as a word is quite harmless, people will instantly associate that with Adolf Hitler, and despite the prominent Neo-nazi movement, it remains an uncomfortable issue in Germany and I think even until this point in time would still be something that fills the people with fear, paranoia, disgust or dread, they've spent so long disassociating themselves from that image after all.

You can discuss these points I made if you think they're unfair. Until you change my mind on this issue it seems these things will need to be changed for approval.

[Karl Franz Fredrick Stahlwelt]

In some Reguards Knives, you should be yelling at me, Not him. It was my mistake when i told him that he could take the spot and disreguard the last leader, like we did with the Englander before, and It was my fault for telling him that we could do this, without asking you first, so dont blame everything on him, most new members here i've recruited, so there may be a few problems.

[Karl Franz Fredrick Stahlwelt]

ok, i made a few modifications. I will probably have to make more later. I took out Germany being given new territory, and I took out Fuhrer. I'll probably modify it to have Johann be in America during the Kaiser revolution, if needed.

[Karl Franz Fredrick Stahlwelt]

I wasn't trying to be yelling or aggressive.. and in regards to Morse I wasn't really kept up to speed with the events at that time~

Is it ok if we assume they stormed the palaces and the Reichstag if needed? As Kaiser made a specific distinction that his government no longer took much place in the Reichstags, of course thats semantics so I won't hold you against that, you don't have to change that if you don't want to.

What I'm trying to say here is, approved.

Though I wonder what will happen to my German character, Erhard, I hope you won't hold it against me but I think him and his former division will become a rebel division loyal to the Kaiser in hiding. Unless you've got another suggestion? I'd have him join ya, but he was totally into the Kaiser.

I'm sorry if I came out as angry at all in either of these posts, as that was far from my intention. =(

One last thing, if you and Giovanni are fine with it, I'm more then willing to let Luxembourg and Austria defect to you or join you or be exchanged as I think they'd prefer Germany to Italy completely.

[Karl Franz Fredrick Stahlwelt]

YAY! Danke Schoen, Knives. Sure, Erhard can defect, make it more exciting. And, I'll talk to Italy, though Giovanni seems intent on holding onto those countries. And I want to make sure that I can move the government back to the Reichstag. I do so enjoy the view out of the dome, don't you?

[Karl Franz Fredrick Stahlwelt]

Yeah you can move them back to the Reichstag thats fine. Its a lovely building after all and a traditional place of government.
