Early Life
Born 27 March 2009, Mark spent his first days in occupied KwaZulu-Natal. He was dismayed that he, along with fellow KZN natives had to live under the oppression dished out the Indonesian plague. Mark sort war, but naive about the complex mechanics of life in the new world soon was disappointed not even being able to get his hands on a gun.
Plea for help
During a conversation with President Jizzie McGuire of eSouth Africa Mark found his escape from his oppression. Jizzie purchased a ticket for Mark and he was offered asylum in free South Africa. He is not a forgiving man and still prays daily for a massive Tsunami that would hopefully cripple Indonesia. As Mark would say "KZN my land, how I miss the Indian Ocean now clogged up with the hair of the occupiers.”
Politics
Mark started his political life in the Black Lion Front. After exile, and his return to the new Free South Africa he joined the new unified party known as United South Africa. After some time he became dismayed at how the party was insistent on experimenting with Direct Democracy. He left and join the then South African Foreigners Party. With the re branding of the SAFP to become the Liberal Party of South Africa (LPSA) he started taking a much more active role. He applied for Party President and won a uncontested election. He has implemented a new Party Forum and is in the process of recruiting members. The Party is not a Top 5 Party, but his efforts are aimed and once again getting the party in the Top 5. Mark was chosen by the United South Africa party to run as a golden 10 candidate, which considering the massive threats face from people like Ajay Bruno he accepted without hesitation. After his term was up he ran again, but this time under the banner of the LPSA.
Tour of duty
Mark decided to travel. He gained much experience on the battlefield in Romania and Finland. After a short visit back home he returned to Romania and was happy to be shedding Indonesian blood again. Mark holds the rank of Corporal but has large ambitions for his future. During his battles he came to a realisation that South Africa is indeed the land of the free. He found that companies in Romania have strict policies and offer no help to the worker. In South Africa Mark found that employers often would offer you gifts and did not at all abuse their firing power. At the outbreak of the South African Liberation War Mark left Romania to fight alongside his brothers and sisters in the South African sponsored resistance in the Eastern Cape. He was convinced that Indonesia was spread too thin and that an outcome in favour of South Africa was certain but was unfortunately disappointed when Brazil got involved in the war. The next day South Africa officially declared war on Indonesia and Mark missed the order to return home due to the fact that he was sleeping. This left him alone behind enemy lines and Mark felt the same feeling of fear that he felt when living in occupied KwaZulu-Natal. He pleaded again for help, and help was given. After a short stopover in China Mark once again headed for the land of the free and is proud to be South African once again
Commander of the Pretorian Van Guard
After the attempted May 5th Presidential PTO by wizzie_don, Mark was asked by the Minister of Defence if he would become the Commander of the Pretorian Van Guard. He happily accepted. Little did he know that soon the military wing that he ran would have no country to call home. Mark still is the commander of the PV in exile.
Forced into Exile
Following the attempted PTO on 5th May, all South African seemed and felt proud of their achievements. It was short lived however. South Africa started organising early for the Congress election, but come the day it just was too overwhelming a force to defend against. The Democratic Red and Black party won a majority of 67% and immediately proposed an impeachment of President Gabriel. Mark watched; counting the minutes until the law was passed and Wizzie_don was made the countries president.
At the moment of Gabriel’s impeachment, Mark watched in horror as region after region of his beloved country fell to the Indonesian Plague. His revenge seemed so far out of reach.
Mark decided to go into exile in the USA, Florida. He stayed there, trying to deal with his posttraumatic stress the best way he knew how, but after some time he found himself in a mess, dosed up on alcohol, Marijuana and anti-depressants. It was not until the call came out for South Africans to move to Indonesia to help out in the PTO happening there that Mark decided to pull himself together and get to work for his country. He now lives in Java and looks the Indos straight in the eye, imagining the day that they will flee their lands like he once did.
