Johannes Lautour was a citizen of Netherlands, born and living in the Northern Netherlands.
He was quite young, but ambition and hard work earned him some experience and rank within Dutch society.
Politics
Johannes joined Democratisch Nederland, out of a belief in a free, democratic society. He strongly believed every Citizen should get at least the opportunity to grow and prosper and should benefit from the cumulated knowledge and experience of Dutch society.
To achieve such goal, the State has an important role to facilitate and educate. It should (pro)actively inform all of its citizens of the possibilities of the New World and the Netherlands.
Because democracy can only work through proper representation, he decided to run for Party President this early in his career already. An election with only one candidate is worse than having no election at all and only feeds disinterest in (party) politics.
By running, he hoped to at least fuel the debate of who Democratisch Nederland was then and who they should be in the future.
Media
Johannes started his media career not by writing, but by reading the newspapers present in the Netherlands today. Noticing most, if not all, newspapers focused on politics, military or economics, he decided to try a different approach.
Nederland Vandaag focused on lighter news and entertainment. It is more than just another Newspaper though: thanks to its' presence on Youtube as well, it also aspires to be an eRepublik radio station.
Military
Johannes was in the Dutch Democrats unit. Quickly growing, he hoped to become a meaningful presence in battles for the Netherlands and her allies.
