Julia Gillard

Role: Head of State

Party: Australian Labor Party

Ideology: New Democracy

In-Game Biography: ^{Click to Show} Julia Gillard has been a controversial figure in Australian politics for years, consistently using outlandish statements on the campaign trail to garner unprecedented support within disillusioned voters. Formerly a member of the defunct People's Alternative, a revolutionary socialist party, Gillard has shifted further to the right in the past thirty years, joining Labor in 1989. She was first elected to the House of Representatives in 1998, becoming Shadow Agriculture Minister in 2001. By the time of the Liberal National Coalition's collapse in 2004, she had risen to the position of Deputy Leader, and upon Labor's landslide loss to the rapidly growing Australian Conservatives in 2007, she was selected to succeed her mentor John Brumby as party leader. In a snap 2009 election, Gillard claimed an unprecedented victory, being elected Prime Minister with an overwhelming majority of seats. However, in recent months her popularity has plunged due to a worsening economic crisis and a growing rift with the Governor General. Australia's first female Prime Minister will have to battle against all odds to maintain her position until the next federal election.

Winston Peters

Role: Head of State

Party: Winston Junta

Ideology: Military Junta^note Nationalism

In-Game Biography: ^{Click to Show} The firebrand Winston Peters' rise from renegade National Party MP to military-backed dictator of New Zealand has been nothing short of spectacular. First elected in 1978, Peters advocated for social conservatism and harsher measures against communism while staunchly defending of the welfare state. His unorthodox but deeply populist views led to him to become one of the most beloved politicians in the country, much to the unease of his own party. The Perth Agreement that followed the end of the Australian Civil War in 1989 was supported by both the Nationals and Labour, but Peters labeled it a farce that provided an opening for communism in the Pacific, and advocated for further military action to halt its spread. That same year, a three way election between Labour, the Nationals, and a left-wing alliance under Jim Anderton resulted in complete political deadlock. When it became clear no party could reasonably govern, the military intervened - both to stabilize the government and prevent Anderton's communist-sympathizing coalition from taking power. Following the coup, Winston Peters was chosen as New Zealand's next Prime Minister, viewed by the military as one who could give their new regime legitimacy and political power. Although Peters has succeeded in preventing the rise of communism in New Zealand, his brutal, paranoid methods and his fanatic militarism, which has seen him greatly expand the navy and declare himself an Admiral of New Zealand and Commander-in-Chief, has seen his once-staggering popularity turn into open discontent.

• Insane Admiral: Previously a conservative politician, Peters has been fighting communism at every turn in the islands ever since he was elected. He declared himself an Admiral of New Zealand and turned the islands into a fervent Anti-Communist Military Junta. His paranoia and militarism has led to many Communist sympathizers arrested or dead, and his sanity and popularity have been slowly waning.
