Mikael Yosie

YesSir Mikael Yosie/E1123f (born Mikael Yosie Nugroho, Russian: Микаэль Йоси Нугрохо, 17 September 1952) is an Antarctic-Indonesian politician, businessman, and film director. He served as both Prime Minister and President since 1978 (except 1983 and 1984, where he resigned a little bit), as well as Governor of Club Penguin for only 3 months, and president of the National United Party since 1999.

Born in a high-class income family, he was raised in Club Penguin City while in the transitional government. He quickly rose to power when he entered the National United Party in 1975, and became prime minister and president from 1978 (except 1983-1985).

He took over as a Prime Minister when his party won the most seats in the 1977 parliamentary election after Christian Laverte decided to resign. During his first tenure, he saw more equality between households, easing of freedom of speech left from Laverte, and adopted new policies to strengthen the country. He retired for a while after the Socialist Party gained more seats in the 1983 parliamentary elections, but after that, the country found themselves in unrest, with presidents being assassinated under their regime. Ivy Redto Nami, the then-incumbent Prime Minister, decided to call on an early snap election, where the National United Party regained a majority of the seats.

During his second tenure, he started a successful shock therapy that made the roste, the currency, regained 50% of its value. He also amended several policies that brought the country further into full democracy. He is also known for finishing two full terms as Prime Minister, putting it beside Laverte, his predecessor.

Winning the 1995 and 2001 presidential elections, which coincided with his high approval ratings, he also took the office as President. During his first tenure, the Antarctic economy grew 87 percent and 73 percent by purchasing power party and nominal figures, respectively, incomes increased by sixty percent, and poverty was slashed by half. The key moment was in the last months of his tenure, when the currency's inflation entered into minus.

Continuing his political career, his party won the majority of the seats since 2007, and United States of Antarctica is regarded as a stable country, and its popularity further increased when no one is under poverty. Worldwide governments lauded him for fixing the things that they previously have. Some estimated that the economy would grow and the roste would further plunge downward inflation, with some estimating that the currency would be worthier than the US dollar.

Widely known as one of the most significant and influential figures in the 21st century, Mikael Yosie always brings solutions to every problems they have. He was so powerful that while he quits the politics in 1983-1985, he saw massive protests and killed every president from the Green Party - National United Party's main rival. Mikael Yosie quickly went back to the politics. He is also known for his love of constitution.

Some people estimated that the government of Mikael Yosie would resign before the next parliamentary elections, but himself, his relatives, and spokesperson declined that, citing that he is still strong to lead his country.

Early life
Yosie was born in a high-income family on 17 September 1952, in Old Club Penguin City, in the Antarctic Transitional Government, days before Antarctica transitioned some of its land as a new democratic state. He is considered a prodigy - he graduated as a Masters of Law and Governmental Issues from the State University of Club Penguin City in the age of 15.

Political career
He started to enter the National United Party in the next year.

He rose through the ranks of the National United Party, which is under an instability period, where Laverte restricted much of the freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution.

The 1977 parliamentary election brought a better stability, as the National United Party won the majority of the seats. As per constitution, the Prime Minister is the leader of the party, or someone elected from the party. Thomilih Johnson, the then-leader of the party, refused to become the Prime Minister due to personal issues, so instead, he chose Yosie instead.

1977-1983: First tenure of premiership
He was inaugurated by then-President Dan Shuester. His first tenure deployed new economic, cultural, domestic, and foreign policies, and his first premiership are mostly a success.

National United Party's victory in the previous parliamentary elections did not last long, though - as the Socialist Party won the most seats in the 1983 parliamentary elections. He joined in a peaceful transition of power as the leader of the Socialist Party, Ivy Redto Nami, became Prime Minister. He decided to retire for a while from politics.

However, he oversaw massive inflation, economic downturn, and instability around the country. Ivy Redto Nami later called on an early snap election, which were unsuccessful by the Council's members. However, with increasing unrest throughout the country, Nami decided to override their decisions, instigating a constitutional crisis.

He also saw the remaining lands being transferred to the United States of Antarctica. After several months of protests, the revolution was deemed successful in luring the members approving the Assembly to be dissolved.

1985-1995: Second and third tenures of premiership
With calls of new elections, he came out of retirement and represented his party once again. The 1985 and 1990 parliamentary elections saw the National United Party once again winning most of the seats, effectively making him prime minister again.

Presidency (1995-2007)
In 1994, he expressed his intention to resign from his position as Prime Minister, but run for a president, citing his high approval ratings, "so that I could find a better way to communicate with people." He won the 1995 presidential elections with 54% of votes, and was sworn in as President on 17 May 1995.

1995-2001: First tenure
Tensions between his party and Green Party cooled down, and for the first in 10 years, during his Presidency, Green Party and Independents secured the most seats in 1995 and 2003 parliamentary elections, respectively, and would be the last time a different party took the most seats.

Several reforms were made under his first tenure, like a more balanced foreign policy, a refined economic policy and laws that would refine state governance. Under his rule, he also closed relationships with the Unitary Republic of Roblox as a result of David Heller's authoritarian New Sun regime.

2001-2007: Second tenure
In a presidential election plagued with political instability and low voter turnout, and with an unprecedented three rounds of voting, Mikael Yosie was re-elected as the President, making him one of the two presidents who got re-elected, besides Asre Johnson. He continued the policies in his first tenure, while also introducing measures to re-open diplomatic relations with the Unitary Republic of Roblox.

2007-present: Fourth, fifth, and sixth tenures of premiership
Being limited for only two terms, he decided to come back as Prime Minister with the party's popularity being increased. The party won the most seats in the 2007, 2012, and 2017 parliamentary elections, though its power decreased substantially.

First policies
During his first term, he promulgated a new law to assign students to wear traditional Antarctic clothing in schools every first Wednesday in each month. Some students protested in a revolution attempt, but he assured to lock up more education policies, and in return, schools were prohibited from giving 10 home works and 5 tests every week.

Other domestic policies include the lowering of the tax, sinking illegal fishing near the borders, increasing the freedoms that were put under Laverte, and new voting mechanisms for the next elections within the nation.

The satisfactory is often questioned: some applaud him for the effectiveness, but for others, he often doesn't address more important issues, such as the nuclear disaster and high inequality, despite the Gini score going downwards.

Economic policy
"Under Yosie, the economy increased to become the largest economy in the world, its currency fell down to become more valuable, and its economy survived the Great Recession."His first premiership deployed a new stabilization pact for the national currency, Antarctic roste. The currency remained stable for his first term, with a rate of 1 USD to 5,5 to 6,5 rostes, with the currency trending steadily downwards to a bigger value, while inflation remained controllable.

His second economic policy was to increase exports, with ice being melted for the northern region, and crops spread around through the agricultural sections. During his tenure, crops and ice dominated the trades. Cocoa, corns, and vegetables followed suit.

Under Laverte, Antarctica experienced massive industrialization, and in his administration, industrialization increased by 40%, increasing its GDP by 14 percent. He oversaw downwards Gini trend and provided people with social welfare programs to help some in need. It wasn't before 1980, that he would appoint his close friend, Sesowagur Ratulangi, as the Minister of Social Welfare, and became the first of its kind. He would sit to that position until 1993. He successfully slashed poverty by 10%, and would continue to do the economic policy in his second tenure.

As a result of misused funds during Green Party's regime as Presidents, hyperinflation almost happened, and roste's value decreased by 210%. With feedbacks from other nations, he implemented a successful shock therapy to the country, with roste's value back at 50%, without the need of redenomination. While inflation continued until 1986, with the rate of 1 USD = 21,78 ATR, in the end of his term, the rate became 1 USD = 7,2 ATR.

Yosie improved the economic policy that was used in his first tenure. As a result, United States of Antarctica's economy measured by purchasing power parity increased by a further 15%, and industrialization increased by 50%. Because of these measures that are continued until today resulting the currency falling further downwards inflation.

Predicting that a great recession would appear in late-2000s, Yosie opened measures in the last years of his Presidency and his fourth term of Premiership to stabilize the economy by lowering its state budget and decreasing its dependence from other regions, while making importing prices competitive.

Socialist State breakup and reorganization

In the aftermath of the unification of the United States of Antarctica with the Antarctic Democratic Republic, they transformed into a transitional state named "Former Republic of the State of Antarctica" and they were given higher autonomy during the period. Yosie, during his retirement, helped Nami to address the state reorganization issues, with ideas to name the respective states as in their previous form.

In 1990, the state was cleared from the autonomy and named the six states respective from the former Socialist State: Polar District, Polaris, East Pengolia, Bakunyomira, Antarctic Peninsula, and Pastriete, as well as a federal municipality of the Special Region of Southern Ocean City.

In a sudden announcement of 1993, he announced that his government is planning to put an official country status for Risgao Lisboages, a Lusophone republic, and Freezeland, a constitutional monarchy. He said,"I wanted to say that they have the right to determine their own future. They are distinctly different from the rest of us, and I think it's time for us to make them a republic within this state."The transition is quick, as he reorganized the government as a Republic, and built new governments for both of the countries, until 1998, when he inaugurated the first King of Freezeland, Triskelle I, and the President of Risgao Lisboages, Antonio Soronya, in his Presidential Palace. Triskelle I was particularly happy with this decision, saying,"For Prime Minister, from the dynasty of Frysia, we would like to say thank you for giving us further representation in the international community. We respect your decision and believe that we would strengthen relations between us."Several elections were held in the aftermath of the inauguration of Risgao Lisboages and Freezeland as two countries - Risgao Lisboages opened the 1998 parliamentary elections, whilst Freezeland, under a transitional government, held the elections early the next year.

1999 state reforms

In his first presidential days, he presented several state reformations, by giving them more autonomy and self-dependence, similar to the autonomous community of Spain. As a result, authoritarian state governments started to appear, and protests broke out in response to his program. In response, Mikael Yosie said, "It's important to give something of a federal importance in the Antarctic Republic."

On LGBT+
In an interview, he showed his stance on LGBT+, with several laws regarding the rights of LGBT+."Here, people have better rights, but people who are either LGBT+ face discrimination from people who have better rights, as if they're perfect. We should stop this, and all people could exercise their rights, no matter the marriage."

Amendments on the constitution
Under his second tenure of his premiership administration, he headed the second amendments to the constitution. This amendment delegated more presidential powers to the cabinet, Prime Minister, and Parliament, abolished death penalty, flora and fauna rights, and effectively turning the United States of Antarctica from its then-current state as semi-presidential republic to a parliamentary republic.

The amendments were approved in a referendum, and this constitution was known as "E1123f's Political Constitution." These laws were in effect in 1987.

First policies
Under Yosie's premiership, he strengthened its relationships with both East and the West during the Cold War. He acted as a mediator to much of the country's conflicts. He further advanced bilateral relationships; when he started his premiership, the country only had 43 bilateral relationships, but in the end of his term, the country already had bilateral relationships with 167 other countries. This is because he took Indonesia's model back home, which is free and active.

His foreign policy is mostly a success, and made the United States of Antarctica achieve its middle power status of international affairs, and often regarded as an architect for the future of Antarctica.

On 1979, protests erupted to end the Antarctica-Soviet relations, thanks to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. He declined to do this, citing that he needs a balanced relationships between East and West and all countries. Protests continue, before he ended it peacefully with a speech in South Pole City.

Unitary Republic of Roblox
''Main article: Antarctica-UR. Roblox relations''

Yosie pursued an important relationship with the Unitary Republic of Roblox. In the first tenure of premiership, he called Roblox a true friend, and to this day, it becomes the number one source of imports and exports. Both have similar architectural style, economy, and government type. The Robloxian nation also hosts the 5th most tourists coming to Antarctica.

However, in the first days of his presidential days, seeing the authoritarian style of David Heller, he put the relations on hold. His supporters and opposition lauded the move, and in response, he said:"You must allow other parties on the Parliament before we can continue our relations. Not just your allies, like the Communists, Socialists, Labour, but the opposition too, then we can continue our relations. So, Mr. Heller, you have two options - opposition or sanctions."In 1998, since there were no snap elections, and no opposition allowed, he finally stopped the relations between two countries, and put sanctions on high-ranking government officials who are allied with him. This slowed down Roblox's economy, and he encouraged other countries to do the same. As a result, Roblox entered a recession.

It wasn't until 2013, when David Heller was impeached, that he continued the relations between the two countries.

On the East-West conflict, he supports the reunification and the reorganization of its federal structure. Most party members and opposition support his idea, and he added that they need to maintain peace throughout their lifetime.

Federative Democratic Republic of the Roblox

Even though the state has existed for a long time, Yosie was still skeptical on establishing relations with the state. However, after Slav Republic was hit by a terrorist attack in 2003 during days of his presidency, he supported the Robloxian Slav's plans to combat terrorism. In early 2004, he signed a memorandum of understanding between both countries to establish co-operation between two nations.

Under his leadership, by the feedbacks of FDR Roblox, Canaria, and UR. Roblox, the country joined the Union of Virtual Countries and the Monetary Union of Virtual Currencies. The leaders applaud him for being the main architect of some economical programs.

Rick Olsen
Rick Olsen was elected as President in the 1990 presidential elections, and was sworn in on 19 November 1990. Relations with his party started out good, but became tense when Rick opened talks in a controversial amendment to abolish the presidential term. There were some experts that United States of Antarctica's democratic process would derail after this bill was passed. The National United Party once again started a fight with Green Party in order to remove talks completely. The Prime Minister himself, however, advised to maintain peace between parties and let the country's democratic process run as usual.

Despite this, relations remained tense, and eventually, Rick Olsen resigned from the presidency, with him replaced by Zack Davre, a Democrat for Antarctica member, whom had better relations.
