Lady Galadriël Táralóm nos Círdan (more affectionatly known as Galadriël) is the Elvish Prime Minister of Knootoss. She is a hardline member of the conservative RCPK and the figurehead for a brand of politics sometimes associated - mostly by her opponents - with the Order of the Invisible Hand involving vastly reduced government spending, privatization and increased Defence spending combined with a pro-active foreign policy based on defending 'Knootian values'. She enjoys huge popularity amongst many Knootians for being one of the most outspoken and visionary leaders in contemporary Knootian politics, and is especially popular amongst the nations sizable Elvish minority. However, Galadriël is also seen as a highly ideological and divisive leader, making such a controversial decisions as using military action against Tanah Burung, replacing the progressive income tax system with a unique sales-based tax and leaving the United Nations after disagreements with the 'Law of the Seas' resolution over matters of extraterritoriality and fishing quotas. In foreign relations, Galadriël started such initiatives as KIST to promote closer bonds between potential friends. She is also seen as an especially staunch defender of warm relations with Elvish and more capitalist nations such as Menelmacar.
Early history
Galadriël was born only recently, in Elvish terms, as the granddaughter of the famous Círdan the shipwright. She emigrated from her homeland to Knootoss during its industrial revolution, eventually becoming a very succesful businesswoman leading her own corporation. She was mostly involved in business life untill the late twentieth century. Seeking new challenges, she went into politics for the Conservative Party which is nowadays known as the RCPK. She sided against Dick Tator during the Shadow War along with another group of disgruntled moderate conservatives and became a member of the RCPK split-off group.
She became as state-secretary of foreign affairs after a political row where she replaced a Green in what was otherwise a left-wing coalition (Van der Laan I - see that entry for reasons behind her appointment.) She was seen as very influential in the Foreign Ministry as state-secretary, often using SLP support for her more conservative foreign policy objectives. She was elected by the RCPK as leader and candidate for Prime Minister in the elections after the van der Laan II cabinet. She managed to win these elections and make the RCPK the largest party in the Knootian parliament.
First nos Círdan administration
After being confirmed as Prime Minister of Knootoss, she formed an SLP/RCPK coalition. Several reforms she made upon entering office directly increased her powers, such as bringing the AIVD directly under the control of the Prime Minister whereas it had previously been assigned to Foreign Affairs and Defence (which was still headed by her former boss Hans van Mierlo). In general, she also supported bids for increases in power by the more neoliberal ministry of economic affairs at the expense of her former boss. An example of this is permitting the widespread establishment of 'Consulates' as 'Economic Affairs' embassies and the establishment of the EIVD.
But the first nos Círdan administration was more notable for its social and political agenda.
- Despite promises, tax increase because of higher defence spending
- Order of the Invisible Hand
- Knootoss leaving UnAPS
- Started KIST
During the One Day War she sent elements of the Knootian Defence Force to Mars in order to prevent Allanea from launching an offensive against Knootoss' Martian allies. This led to an exchange of letters known as the Knootian-Allanean correspondence.
- Uneventful elections
Second nos Círdan administration
- Different fiscap policy. New taxation system (link to bloody thread goes here) Decreasing tax, eliminating personal income tax. eplacing the progressive income tax system with a unique sales-based tax
- Left the UNUnited Nations after disagreements with the 'Law of the Seas' resolution over matters of extraterritoriality and fishing quotas.
