| | The '''Arucian Cooperation Organization''' is an {{wp|Intergovernmentalism|intergovernmental}} {{wp|regional organization}}, comprised of TBD member states situated in the [[Western Arucian Sea]] and [[Eastern Arucian Sea]]. |

|
| ==Early life== | | ==History== |
| Jan Swiech was born in [[Włocłamyśl|Vyuchamyshy]] (present-day [[Włocłamyśl]], [[Zelaia Province|Zelaia]]) on 2 March, 1958 to Metody Swiech and Jolanta Swiech, as the eldest of two sons, with his younger brother, [[Józefa Swiech]] born in 1961.
| | The Arucian Cooperation Organization has its roots in the aftermath of the [[Great War (Kylaris)|Great War]], when [[Estmere]] established the [[Oriental Republic]], which comprised of the Estmerish [[Colony of Imagua]], the Estmerish-occupied [[Sanslumiere]], and (TBD) in late 1935. While this effort was extremely short lived, particularly after Estmere collapsed into chaos, leading to Sanslumiere declaring its independence, this was seen as a proof of concept that cooperation can be done between states in the Arucian. |
| | |
| Jan Swiech was an excellent student in school, and following his graduation in 1976, he moved to [[Sechia]] to further his studies at the [[University of Sechia]]. At the University of Sechia, he was introduced to left-wing politics, and soon became a critic of [[Vilem Gardos]]' rule over [[Narozalica]]. In October 1979, he was charged with {{wp|sedition}} for his political activities against the Narozalic government, but because of the [[Sostava War]] and the subsequent [[Lemovician War of Independence]], Swiech never was tried or imprisoned for his activities by the Narozalic government.
| |
| | |
| However, with the rise of the [[National Syndicalist Union of Lemovicia|National Syndicalists]] to power, and the institution of the [[Constitution of Lemovicia, 1979|Lemovician constitution]] which disenfranchised ethnic {{wp|Polish people|Miersans}}, Swiech became sympathetic to the idea of Miersan separatism from the rest of [[Lemovicia]], and began advocating for these ideas, alongside [[Izydor Domzalski]], with Swiech being sympathetic to the creation of a {{wp|social democracy|social democratic state}} in Northern Lemovicia.
| |
| | |
| ==Military leader==
| |
| In March 1980, as the [[Lemovicia|Lemovician state]] suppressed protests across the country demanding an end to the {{wp|Falangism|national syndicalist regime}} and the resignation of [[Saroi Garnica]], Swiech became certain that the only way Miersans would ever be equal with the Lemovician "would be for the Miersans to gain their independence and to run their own state."
| |
| | |
| Thus, on 22 March, 1980, [[Izydor Domzalski]] and Swiech declared the establishment of the [[Miersan Entity|Miersan Republic of Lemovicia]]. Domzalski became the first leader, while Jan Swiech became one of Domzalski's generals. Swiech was quickly deployed to [[Loiola]], where he was defeated in the [[Battle of Loiola (1980)|first battle of Loiola]]. Despite this setback, Jan Swiech managed to [[Battle of Loiola (1982)|retake Loiola]] in August 1982 from government forces, which helped boost his position.
| |
| | |
| In 1985, he helped orchestrate the [[Liberal Democratic Party (Lemovicia)|opposition offensive]] in the [[Battle of Bailara (1985)|second Battle of Bailara]], while participating in the [[Siege of the Amabizca Pocket]] following the fall of [[Bailara]], which helped temporarily secure control of the Amabizca Pocket for the separatist forces.
| |
| | |
| In 1988, Swiech helped lead the Miersan defence against government forces, helping the coalition secure a victory at the [[Battle of Otermin]], although he suffered a shrapnel wound, which put him out of action until the following year. In 1991, he led the [[Battle of the Baitxi Pass (1991)|second battle of the Baitxi Pass]], which ended in defeat for the separatist-opposition coalition.
| |
| | |
| The following year, with the end of the [[Lemovician Civil War]], as the Miersan forces were disbanded, Swiech was discharged. He joined the newly-established [[Socialist Party (Lemovicia)|Socialists]], who nominated him to be part of their presidential list.
| |
| | |
| ==Political career==
| |
| ===Presidency===
| |
| On 1 November, 1992, Jan Swiech was sworn in alongside [[Izydor Domzalski]], [[Otxote Sasiambarrena]], and [[Gizon Artalolea]] as the first members of the [[Presidency of Lemovicia|Lemovician Presidency]].
| |
| | |
| After Otxote Sasimabarrena completed his first tenure as Chairman of the Presidency in 1994, Jan Swiech became Chairman of the Presidency on 1 April, 1994. During his tenure as chairman of the Presidency, he built upon Sasiambarrena's efforts to build ties with the [[Euclean Community]], and sought to advocate for the creation of a "safety net" for the poor and disadvantaged. On 1 April, 1995, he was succeeded by Gizon Artalolea as Chairman of the Presidency.
| |
| | |
| In 1996, while he was on the Socialist list, as they did not gain enough votes, Jan Swiech was not elected to the Lemovician President. During this period, Jan Swiech continued his involvement in the [[Socialist Party (Lemovicia)|Socialist Party]], helping build up its capacity to run for the 2000 presidential elections.
| |
| | |
| In 2000, Jan Swiech returned for a second term to the Presidency, after having run a vigorous campaign. He was sworn in alongside [[Igor Janusz]], [[Hargin Saez]], and [[Eolo Larretche]]. After the completion of Saez's first term as Chairman of the Presidency, Swiech assumed the role of Chairman of the Presidency for a second time on 1 April, 2002. During his second term as Chairman of the Presidency, Jan Swiech advocated for Lemovicia to join the [[Association of South Euclean States]] as a "stepping stone" towards future EC membership, and continued improving ties with its neighbours and the Euclean Community. On 1 April, 2003, he was succeeded as Chairman of the Presidency by Larretche.
| |
| | |
| ===Legislator===
| |
| In the [[Elections in Lemovicia#2004|2004 elections]], as he had reached the maximum term limit for being part of the [[Presidency of Lemovicia|Lemovician Presidency]] under the [[Constitution of Lemovicia, 1992|1992 constitution]], Jan Swiech was nominated to run for a seat to represent the constituency of Włocłamyśl alongside the other socialists.
| |
| | |
| During his election campaign, Swiech pledged that he would bring "tremendous prosperity" to the city of [[Włocłamyśl]], and that a "[[Socialist Party (Lemovicia)|Socialist]] government" would help give the [[Administrative divisions of Lemovicia#Entites|constituent entities]] "the tools needed to be prosperous." This helped ensure his election to one of the seats representing Włocłamyśl.
| |
| | |
| Thus, on 1 April, 2004, he was sworn into the [[National Assembly of Lemovicia|National Assembly]]. During his tenure as a legislator, his stature within the Socialist Party grew, especially after he was named parliamentary leader of the Socialist Party in 2005. With the economic crisis hitting Lemovicia hard, Swiech advocated for greater regulations and for the creation of a {{wp|welfare state}} so that the crisis would not hit the poor as hard as they did. He advocated for a recovery which would "benefit the people" and not just the "richest of the rich."
| |
| | |
| By the [[Elections in Lemovicia#2008|2008 elections]], he polled ahead incumbent [[Premier of Lemovicia|Premier]] [[Otxote Sasiambarrena]], and Swiech waged an extensive campaign pledging to help the economy recover in a way that would benefit "all people in [[Lemovicia]], not just the rich." His rhetoric helped secure his victory, and after negotiations with the [[Miersan People's Union (Lemovicia)|Miersan People's Union]], [[Lemovician Section of the Workers' International]], and [[Aurrera (Lemovicia)|Aurrera]], he was able to form a grand coalition.
| |
| | |
| ===Premier===
| |
| On 1 April, 2008, Jan Swiech was sworn in as the third [[Premier of Lemovicia]], succeeding [[Otxote Sasiambarrena]], making him both the youngest Premier in Lemovician history, and the first Premier to not come from the [[Liberal Democratic Party (Lemovicia)|Liberal Democrats]] in Lemovician history. After naming his cabinet, including [[Eolo Larretche]] as his Deputy, Jan Swiech began to focus on economic recovery.
| |
|
| |
|
| During his first term, Jan Swiech instituted (TBC).
| | In 1938, the [[Imaguan-Sanslumieran Cooperation Treaty]] was signed, which (TBC). |
