The Great Dictator

The Great Dictator was a highly acclaimed figure in all of Martentopis. He was the head of state for a long time, until he was recently killed in "Operation Tigercat".

From birth to school (1942-1950)

The Great Dictator was born in the sheep-herding village of Kqaching, on the 24th of august, 1942, with the name of Kvnjhglk, a popular local name. His family was poor, so he wasn't born in a highly acclaimed hospital or anything. No, he was actually born in a pile of cow-manure in his farm's shed, but he doesn't like to talk about it. Kvnjhglk didn't go to school until he was 8, instead growing up between the cows. In 1948, he was granted a scholarship from the human rights group "Kids Born In Cow Manure Association" (KBICMA). But little Kvnjhglk didn't accept the scholarship. The actual words he said were: "I will work by myself, for myself". And so, the six-year old boy moved to the city instead, and earned 1$ a day by selling kebabs with a kebab-stand called "Kebab Kadingle". After two years of hard work, Kvnjhglk bought himself a scholarship with his own money.

School Years (1950-1960)

Kvnjhglk was the class bully in his early years, severly beating up the school principal and two teachers, and killing 1 annoying nerd. This lasted until he was 12, in 1954. This was when he got interested in politics. He read books and went to many univeristy lectures about law and politics, and ended up becoming a feirce activist against the current dictator, who crashed the country's economy. He wrote letters, made posters, even made an amatuer movie mocking the dictator. In 1959, when Kvnjhglk was 17, the dictator had had enough. 130 government militias came and burned down the school. Kvnjhglk barely escaped.

Maraque(1960-1966)

Because Kvnjhglk wasn't welcome in martentopian Universities, he traveled to Maraque to complete his studies. He studied law, and political economics, completing both with the highest grade possible. Yet, Kvnjhglk's money didn't grow on trees. At the end of both of his studies, he didn't have money to fly back to Martentopis. So he hitched up his "Kebab Kadingle", and started working again. In two years, he had enough money to fly back. And when he came back, he'd change the face of his country...

Foul Play, Elections, and Politics (1966-1969)

Kvnjhglk spent a year in hiding after he came back from Maraque. The authorities were still looking for the boy who mocked them. Yet an un-expected event happened in 1967. The current dictator was shot in the back of his head by an escaped babboon who had managed to get his hands on a gun. The country would have elections again, to elect a new dictator. Kvnjhglk thought he was now worthy to run for dictator elections. But the care-taker government did not allow it, saying Kvnjhglk was still an "enemy for the ruling powers". So Kvnjhglk took to the streets with 52,500 people to protest. The government couldn't do anything but let him run for elections. Needless to say, Kvnjhglk won.

'till Death do us Part (1970-2006)

Kvnjhglk changed his name in the first year of his reign. No one knew this new name, but whoever mentioned the name Kvnjhglk was executed without trial. It was said the Great Dictator had a great time ruling the country, sweeping the benefits out of every corner. For instance, he let a revolutionary house be built by famed architect Indy Ovetokil. Yet everything changed on the night of September 15th, 2006. A phony assassination attempt took place. The Great Dictator, scared out of his wits, ordered 3000 privates from the 3rd Army of Martentopis to surround his house to protect him. What he didn't know was that these privates were part of a conspiracy to undermine him. The privates stormed the house, and forced the Great Dictator to appoint Dictator Fooshawab as the new dictator. They killed the Great Dictator after the appointment.
