Rejoining EarthMC in early August 2024, Farosh served a brief stint in France for two days, before moving to Vermont on August 8 during the ongoing Great American War between the Organisation of Free Nations (OFN) and the Republic of Texas. After winning a special election as a Representative, Farosh was elevated to the position of Vice President under mikesworldus, winning re-election on the same ticket. As Vice President, he pushed for greater checks and balances in the constitution, creating the position of Speaker of the House and Attorney-General, separating the powers of the Executive and the Legislative Branches.

'''<big>Beginnings</big>''' | |||
Farosh_ spawned on June 20, 2023, leaving soon after. On August 6, 2024, he rejoined and was recruited to Paris, France. With a strong interest in democracy and having previous experience in towny on Earth Minecraft servers, he sought involvement in the French government and expressed interest in holding a town in the Pyrenees, then unclaimed. However, finding France to be too hierarchical and ironic as a monarchy, Farosh chose to leave Paris two days later to join the Vermont Republic, first noticing the nation on the Dynamic Map. Seeing that the town of Hamilton's mayor, 404aka, was online, he messaged her and asked to join the town. | |||
404aka invited Farosh to the Vermont Discord, where he spent time reading and researching Vermont's constitution and laws. Within days of becoming a resident of Hamilton, he met and befriending Vice President Princeling7, the nation's leader and mayor of Vermont City, who, after learning of his enthusiasm, offered him the role of 'Observing Representative' to view the General Assembly and its proceedings. Shortly after, Farosh was offered the position of Councillor, on the recommendation of Princeling, in the town of Tremblant, led by Billi003. | |||
After serving a brief stint as Councillor of Tremblant, Farosh saved up 64 gold, enough to found a town of his own, On August 8, he established Saint John, based on the real-life city of the same name. He began by renovating the ruins of the old town hall, transforming it into a spawn point and community building. He promoted the project to fellow Vermonters, including President Mikesworldus, who donated some of his gold to help expand and develop the town. Close by was the town of Moncton, owned by SagePirates, who expanded its claims towards Saint John to create a road between the two towns. | |||
'''<big>Vermont Representative</big>''' | |||
On August 17, Farosh was elected unanimously in a special election to the General Assembly, replacing Representative StoneSucker, who had been inactive throughout his term in office. Farosh promised to provide the necessary funds and resources needed to complete the national shop, then under construction beneath the Capitol. He also committed himself to improving Vermont's democracy by introducing legislation to establish the roles of Speaker and Attorney-General, both of which Vermont lacked. | |||
A special session of the General Assembly was called by 404aka a few days later, requesting Representatives attended a meeting in Hamilton. She was concerned that Sudbury, previously owned by her friend AvumsStudent, was going to be sniped by an unknown player and used to overclaim Hamilton. During the ongoing [[Great American War]], between the [[Organization of Free Nations|Organisation of Free Nations]] (OFN) and the [[Texas|Republic of Texas]], it was feared that this player had connections with the Texans, who had made an offensive into Vermont months prior. Although 404aka's fears were ultimately proved unfounded, several Representatives, including Farosh and SagePirates, grew increasingly frustrated with the ongoing drama in the nation, as well as what they perceived to be 404aka’s abuse of power in her roles as both an admin and a Justice of the Supreme Court. | |||
Around this time, Farosh, encouraged by SagePirates and fellow Representative Ruleroftheland, considered joining Nunavik. However, after joining the Republic of Cascadia’s Discord, he was impressed by the nation’s realistic and well-developed democratic system, which convinced him to begin preparing to leave Vermont. | |||
However, on August 23, a conflict erupted between Princeling7 and 404aka after the former removed 404aka’s 'Observing Justice' role. 404aka argued that the role could only be revoked by the General Assembly. What followed was the boiling point of the tensions and political drama that had been building around her role as an admin. In response to the fight that ensued in the Discord, 404aka used her admin powers to remove criticism of her, citing multiple rule violations. Several Representatives, including SagePirates and Ruleroftheland, left Vermont soon after. In an effort to restore stability, the General Assembly voted to impeach 404aka and remove her as a Justice, nominating Princeling as her replacement. With the office of Vice President now vacant, President Mikesworldus, on the recommendation of Princeling, nominated Farosh to fill the position, even as Farosh was preparing to move to Cascadia. | |||

'''End of the Great American War''' | |||
Following the Texan Eastern Offensive in July during the [[Great American War]], Cascadian and Vermont relations were strained. By the time Farosh become Vice President, the Vermont government was engaged in negotiations with Texan leadership in an effort to end the war. No agreement had been reached, and an unconditional surrender by Vermont had been rejected. A ceasefire between the two nations had held for several weeks, however, despite sporadic hunting from Texans. Meanwhile, President Mikesworldus and his cabinet largely avoided or ignored the war, instead delegating the authority to negotiate a settlement to Princeling, who sought a treaty separate from the OFN and Cascadia. With anti-war sentiment soaring, Texas seized the opportunity to pressure Vermont into agreeing to a treaty that would grant significant concessions, including territorial loss and a guarantee to leave the OFN. Amid these negotiations, Farosh was invited to the group chat were it was taking place, thrown into the deep-end of diplomacy with a nation and situation he was entirely unfamiliar with. | |||
On 26 August, Farosh reached out to the Cascadian Secretary of State, [[Dracnoian]]. Their discussions were positive, and focused largely on improving the relationship between the two nations. Dracnoian also offered advice on how to strengthen and improve Vermont's democracy, which remained a keen interest of Farosh's. Days later, Farosh spoke with [[Fierymatter]], the Cascadian Secretary of Defence, who cautioned that the Vermont government should carefully consider pursuing a treaty with Texas independently, or in co-ordination with Cascadia. During this period, Farosh remained active within the OFN, working to align Vermont’s war effort with Cascadia, often acting independently of the Mikesworldus administration. | |||
With the success of the Cascadian Summer Offensive into the Texan heartlands, the tide of the Great American War began to turn in favour of the OFN into September. Vermont's status as a belligerent in the war was no longer questioned. With Texas on the backfoot, Farosh convinced the cabinet that it was no longer necessary to surrender; Texas was no longer in a position to demand anything, and the theatre of war was no longer on the doorstep of Vermont. Anti-war sentiment quelled, as the government and citizens could focus on playing without fear of hunters or reprisal. This allowed a couple of peace treaties, pushed by Princeling and Mikesworldus, to be rejected with the lobbying of Farosh and Malician. A deal struck by Mikesworldus with the Texan government was also struck down in the General Assembly by Farosh with a tie-breaker vote, the first of its kind in Vermont history, after he convinced the President to align with the OFN and Cascadia. | |||
On September 13, Farosh, Malician, and Mikesworldus represented Vermont in peace talks with Texas, alongside OFN allies. Negotiations took place over several days, with Vermont and Cascadia's cores being settled with little debate. The main point of contention was the status of Louisiana, which remained claimed by Cascadia and Texas, who both had several towns in the region. Farosh felt that the Cascadian delegation was unnecessarily delaying peace by demanding a section of land they had expanded into during the Summer Offensive. After multiple rounds of negotiation, the Cascadian delegation ultimately relented. Hours later, Farosh proposed the Treaty of Vancouver to the Vermont General Assembly. Vermont became the first nation in North America to ratify the agreement, bringing an end to months of war. | |||
Princeling, who had been absent from the negotiations until the ratification of the Treaty of Vancouver, soon took issue with members of the Texan delegation. Around this time, a Vermont citizen, Tr4fikk, created a group chat with Princeling to request the return of one of his armour sets, which had been taken by Tr1st4n_06, a prominent Texan hunter. The ink had barely dried by the time Princeling began complaining, alleging the Texans had 'committed a war crime' despite the incident taking place weeks before the end of the war. In response, Mikesworldus, Farosh, and Malician all agreed to reimburse Tr4ffik with gold to make up the loss of his gear, and kick Princeling from negotiations, bringing the dispute to a close and preventing any premature collapse of the Treaty of Vancouver. | |||
'''Fight against Corruption''' | |||
As soon as he was confirmed as the Vice President of Vermont, Farosh set out to improve Vermont's democracy. He introduced the 'National Budget and Responsibility Act', creating a uniform budget system inspired by Cascadia's; the 'Expanded Roles Act' establishing the offices Speaker and Attorney-General; and the 'Repeal of Redundancy Act', which gutted a range of outdated and unenforced rules. | |||
