EmpressCorgo (spawned July 8, 2022) is a Cascadian politician, F1 racer and femcel who served as Secretary of the Interior from February 19th to July 16th, the 10th President of Cascadia from August 12 to November 19, 2023, the 10th and 15th Vice President of Cascadia from July 16 to August 12 and from November 19 to December 17, 2023; and since December 17, 2023 has served as the 9th Treasurer of Cascadia. During her career in public service, she has served in the Legislature on two occasions, and was the longest-serving president in Cascadian history.
Early Life and Interior Department
She began in the nation of Spain(then known in game as Spanish Kingdom) as a resident of the town of Burgos sometime around early to mid November 2022. In a couple weeks, she had already started searching for a location to start a town so she could build a mountain based ice track. She eventually picked the location of what would later become the town of Corgo's Pass, which she founded on November 27th, 2022, and where she has remained since. Soon she would develop an interest in roads and would start building infrastructure for the Interior Department.
She built the far eastern part of Highway 94 in January 2023 connecting Cascadia with the then Midwestern Union. She then built Highway 92 in early February 2023 which connected the Cascadian Frontier to Hermosillo, Mexico(then Sonora). Milgorn123 noticed Corgo's talent in Infrastructure and added her to his cabinet as Secretary of the Interior for the February Elections. Milgorn won that election, which gave Corgo the job.
During her time as Secretary of the Interior, Corgo built an icerail meant to link Cascadia's and the then Midwestern Union in March. While the Cascadian portion was fully built in a couple weeks, the MWU one was not, leading to the icerail becoming a dead end. However the rail would later be used as a connection to the USA icerail system. She built icerails connecting the towns of Silverthrone, Burns, Corgo's Pass, Port Mcneill, Sullivan Bay, and IOCO, alongside a connection to Aylywyn's icerail that spans from Ireland to Japan. She personally made major contributions to the Seattle Project, building a hospital and a majority of the Columbia Center.
Entry Into Cascadian Politics
She first ran for representative in the May elections, winning but ultimately not making meaningful contributions during her one month tenure. She was put in Bachinuni's Cabinet as his running mate for the July elections, which Bachinuni won. This was around the time she first started forming political beliefs on how the nation should be run, and was a big advocate for improved the then stagnated economy. From this point on, Corgo would be a big player in Cascadian Politics.
Presidency
Bachinuni's Resignation(August 12th, 2023)
Bachinuni went inactive quickly after he was elected, causing not much to get done. This came to a head in August when an attempt to buy the Rocky Mountain Federation failed miserably, with the nation being stolen by RealLIMPOPO, the then Secretary of Defense, who was tasked with holding the nation. Because most of the nation's funds(4.5K Gold) were used in the purchase(alongside donations from over a dozen people), it left the country broke. Seeing the need for active leadership, Bachinuni resigned and passed the torch down to Corgo. This is the only time in history that a President had resigned.
August Election and Early Presidency(August 12th - September 17th)
Immediately, Corgo had a lot of work to do, particularly on the stolen Rocky Mountain Federation, now Rocky Mountain Brotherhood owned by RealLIMPOPO.

Treasury
New Year's Recession(December 17th, 2023 - March 14th, 2024)
With the election of Setrus on December 17, 2023, Corgo became the 9th Treasurer of Cascadia. Coupled with low revenue and high spending under the Setrus Administration, Cascadia fell into a deep economic depression. She took a break in February to recoup, and on March 14, 2023, the national bank hit it's lowest point in the recession at 2043 gold on March 14, 2024, which was just 43 gold above the emergency partition at the time, set at 2000 gold. After this scare, spending would be halted for a bit so the bank could recover. Over the next two weeks, the bank would grow around 400 gold, mainly due to a 200 gold donation by EmpressCorgo herself.
The New Year's Recession is called a recession because the Treasury never dipped below 2000 gold, the emergency partition level at the time(which would require a 3/4th's house vote to take from). For a large, usually prolonged decrease in the bank to be considered a depression, it would either need to dip below the emergency partition level, or if it was before the Bank Emergency Partition Act was signed, dip to a critical level where the nation would've gone bankrupt within a month of minimum spending levels.
Emerald Miracle(March 26th, 2024 - Present)
On March 26th, as the Treasury was still recovering from the New Year's Recession, Corgo decided that she would start a campaign to massively improve Cascadia's economic position, this was achieved with a combination of gold mining, collecting loan payments from Cascadia's ally, the Republic of Havaiki, and aggressively promoting the national store. In the two weeks after this, the Treasury jumped from 2383 gold to 5000 gold, doubling the treasury. While revenue after this period was much lower, Cascadia kept it's balance and hasn't dipped below 4500 gold since, in fact it has grown even more since then under RawrYoutube's administration. EmpressCorgo retired from her position as Treasurer on May 20th, 2024, citing exhaustion as her main reasoning.
