===Gallant, Aedanicus===
'''Aedanicus Gallant''' (born 29 March 1983) is a current [[Censor (Urcea)|Censor]] of [[Urcea]]. A graduate of trade school in [[Ardthirium]], Gallant worked as a steamfitter from age 20 through 23 before becoming involved with politics, joining the [[Commonwealth Union (Urcea)|Commonwealth Union]] in 2006. A proponent of [[Wittonian Socialism]], Gallant served as a party committeeman in the province from 2006 until 2015. Standing for a seat in the [[Concilium Daoni]] in 2010, Gallant was narrowly defeated by a member of the [[Julian Party (Urcea)|Julian Party]]. Gallant became prominent within the party as being an advocate for a renewed push for what he called the "moral media", arguing that the winding-down [[Occidental Cold War]] could potentially lead to laxity in morals in Urcea and that immorality would remain an enemy even if [[Caphiria]] was not. In an unusual step, Gallant launched a nationwide speaking tour that was well received in 2014 ahead of his intended run for Censor. With [[Bridget Farrell]] retiring from the office of Censor in 2015 to run for [[Concilium Daoni]], Gallant won over a crowded field of candidates as one of the few [[Union for National Solidarity (Urcea)|Solidarity]] victories in the otherwise landslide defeats of the [[2015 Urcean elections]].

'''Michael Witte, Duke of Glenmont [[Imperial Order of the Holy Cross|KHC]]''' (born August 14th, 1960) is a [[Urcea|Urcean]] politician who previously served as [[Procurator]] of the Apostolic Kingdom of [[Urcea]], [[Chancellor and Temporary President]] of the [[Concilium Daoni]], leader of the [[Commonwealth Union (Urcea)|Commonwealth Union]], and [[Ministry of Administration of the Realm (Urcea)|Royal Administrator]], and was among the youngest ever in each of those three posts.

He also served as a member of the [[Concilium Daoni]] from [[Lower Carolina]] from 1990 to 2010. He is presently the Chair of the [[Gildertach]].


Witte campaigned vigorously in the [[2000 Urcean elections|2000 election]] against [[Michael Redder]] and was elected [[Procurator]] in 2000. His administration saw a number of major accomplishments, such as the [[Family Living Act of 2003]] and King's Health Aid Act of 2007, transforming [[Housing in Urcea|Urcean housing]] and [[Healthcare in Urcea|healthcare]]. He won reelection in a landslide in the [[2005 Urcean elections]]. After serving as party leader and Chancellor for nearly eight years, Chancellor Witte decided to step aside at the end of 2009 as Chancellor and leader, citing poor polling and general fatigue for his Chancellorship. [[James Cossus Reed]] was selected to succeed him as leader and Chancellor, and in 2010 the National Democratic Party won an easy, though reduced, majority in the [[Concilium Daoni]]. Witte did not run for reelection in 2010 as [[Procurator]], endorsing Reed instead. Following his retirement, he served in a number of unofficial capacities as an elder statesman before King Riordan VIII appointed him as special envoy to Caphiria, where he lead negotiations that resulted in the [[Assumption Accords]]. [[Wittonian Socialism]] is named for Witte's policies.

In 2015, he was appointed as Chair of the [[Gildertach|House of Guilders]] by King [[Riordan VIII]], partly in recognition of his major strengthening of the [[Guilds (Urcea)|guild system]] during his Procuratorship. The [[Kiravia|Kiravian]] scholar E. H. Tomcollins called Witte the "greatest living champion of the guild system". In 2028, in recognition for his life of service, Riordan VIII granted him the [[Peerage of Urcea|life peer title]] of Duke of Glenmont.
