First Days
taytaz was born in London after realising that Australia was occupied by Indonesia. After a few minutes of play, Taytaz received a message from Tim09. He introduced him to the eUK Forums where he quickly became active and involved. Completely independent of Tim's view's, he joined the People's Communist Party and was just in time to see Widdows9000 lose the elections to Rayf Drayson. Taytaz also wrote an article, interviewing Zaney about Australian Independence, and from there, became involved in the Australian Independence Movement.
Politics
Although very active in his first month of play, experience levels introduced in v1, and the subsequent removal of mayors meant that getting a real break in the UK political scene was hard. However, early in November, the Australian Independence Movement was getting more active, and Taytaz got involved as Minister of Foreign Affairs for the Government in exile. Recently, Taytaz was elected as a wildcard in the UK Congress elections of November, running in the region of Northern Ireland. Due to inactivity in Northern Ireland, Taytaz moved to the West Midlands to help UKRP congressman Deathtoll32.
Taytaz also managed to lose the Australian Ind. Movement Party Presidency to Widdows9000 after the previous leader, ICE2008 left the game due to RL issues. Unfortunately, bugs prevented the Australian regions from electing congress members, so the party was a little stuffed. After full independence, Taytaz decided to join a new party in Australia, called the Australian Democratic Socialist Party, headed by Cottus Arci.
After some confusion in the ADSP, Taytaz made a last minute congress bid back in the UK. He was elected in an extremely close race in Northern Ireland, one of only two MPs from the Region. His fellow congressmen, Jacen Molare, of TUP is working together to bring Norn Iron back to its former glory. It is the first time a PCP member has held office in Northern Ireland since corny-ratbag as Mayor of Belfast. After that term however, Taytaz returned to live and work in Australia, his home country. He fulfilled numerous roles there, from Military CO positions and multiple cabinet positions, all the way down to supporting the government build its first Q5 hospital. Gradually, after the tension of fighting for independence had gone, and the novelty of having a new country wore off, Taytaz lost interest in the game, and died.
He revived approximately 6 months later in late November, 2009. He moved from Florida, where he had died whilst 2-clicking, back to his original home, the UK. He has since become an active member on the forums and in the political scene once again. He now boasts that he has spent more time in the game in a congress seat than without one, which isnt actually that impressive, but with six terms to his name, it's a little bit pitiful =D
Economy
Taytaz started in Housing, working for a People's Initiative Company in the UK, however, after the introduction of Raw materials, Taytaz moved to that industry due to the massive wage difference. His skills are over 3.5 and 4.5 respectively, meaning that where ever his travels take him, he can get a decent job somewhere. He is currently employed in the UK buy Bricks & Beck's, a Q3 housing company owned by lotfire.
Taytaz has also been a General manager for MIG Iron, in Pakistan, however, this was a bad purchase, and he is waiting for an opportunity to sell. He managed to sell it through Irsh group, and made profit of 2 Gold. With a new fortune of gold that accumulated through numerous awards, congress elections and level-ups, Taytaz is looking at getting into business once again, either as an investor or a GM. He finally worked up enough gold to start his own Not-For-Profit supply chain under the company Consortius Populi in NSW which owned People's Grain and People's Food which were both Q2. He aimed to have high wages and good benefits, which was viable as the business was not-for-profit, and taytaz only made as much as he needed to keep a steady wellness. When he quit, he donated both these companies, and 20GOLD to the Australian Communist Party to use in their commune scheme.
Military
Taytaz has been active within the military and never passes upon an opportunity to gain some battle experience. He joined the Reserves on the first day he was eligible, and in Australia, was a high-ranking member of the Australian Defence Force. He was Commander of the Force, taking over from previous Colonel Ultrus Noobus. Taytaz commands the Special Recon Unit. He was also a member of the Australian Medic Corps, or Redbacks. He is a veteran of the Australian Resistance Wars, Russian Independence War, Finnish War, and the ATLANTIS battles against France. In his career in the UK, he has not scaled such heights, but has always got behind his country, as can be seen in his UK ribbons below.

Media
Taytaz created the British Informer and has published many articles in the paper including Interview with Government in Exile, an an interview with Zaney. He is currently a casual journalist, writing about main event in eRepublik. Currently, his favourite paper is the eUK Telegraph, owned by CV James, though is starting to think it a bit right-wing. He currently runs the BBC Match of the Day newspaper, that details his new eFootball Premier League, and eFootball tournament in the eUK run using the Football Manager 2010 engine.
Influences
Tim09 has been a great help and influence to Taytaz, getting him started in the game, and later the PCP. He trained him in politics and eLife in general and helped him to make himself known in the PCP. Siobhan Griffin also was a great help, providing Taytaz with his invitation, and making him feel welcome in Belfast, as the region's last mayor. Bob Boblo was Taytaz' 'Big Buddy' in the PCP, a scheme run by Relic. Bob taught Taytaz the great art of spamming. In more recent times, especially in recent times, Taytaz has drawn inspiration and support from big names of Australian politics like zaney, Cottus Arci and even on the other side of the war, blink-az and n3m0 who displayed remarkable patriotism and loyalty, as well as flexibility and understanding as to the needs of other groups. Other people that deserve honourable mentions include Ip Lockard, Malta_1990 and Bremer.
