Biography
Firejon was a British citizen living in London, later moved to Oxford. He has been an erepublik member since the 22nd Feb 2009. After a month or so of working and building up to buy a company he started out his erepublik political life by joining up to The Radical Freethinkers Alliance after a recruitment drive from then PP Goku Jones.
Politically firejon has not managed to achieve his dreams, mainly because of his own lack of being able to commit to the amount of time needed to be a success in the political world of erepublik. He, however, has always been a regular figure in the RFA forums and was seen on the IRC from time to time.
With the attempted closing of The RFA, firejon become heavily involved in keeping The RFA going and was one of the few long term members refusing to let it die.
In March 2011, Firejon even tried to become a Prime Minister and ended 4th out of 5 candidates, getting just a bit over 3 % of total votes.
Economy
Firejon first company was a British grain company in a poor grain region. Most companies would have failed under these conditions but he managed to buy a license for the company to sell in India where grain was hard to come by at the time and managed to work at a profit. His main aim at this time was to provide a company which would only employ RFA members to create unity in the party. He ran many competitions for his staff with profits as the prize.
This company was sold on because of it being in a low grain region and a gun company was purchased in its place. Slowly over time, it has been upgraded and when V2 of erepublik came in it was changed over to a q3 tank company.
