President Okonkwo Cyryl Lavoie, above
Brickston Democratic Union Party
Okonkwo Cyryl Lavoie is the current president of Brickston (as of 16/07/2021 in DD/MM/YY format). He was born on the 28th of June, but the year of his birth is not known. Some figures estimate him to be in the age range of 45-75.

State of Brickston before Lavoie's rule

Before Okonkwo Cyryl Lavoie's reign, the country had been following a protectionism trade policy, where regional products are preferred over international ones. The country had been recovering from the radical Maduro Communist Revolution (1912-1937).

Poverty rates declined over time, but the country was not making sufficient progress.

Background of Mr. Lavoie

Mr. Lavoie was born in the town of Schmedeswurtherwester (present-day Lavoiewuschmedes). His parents couldn't afford to send him to school, as they had spent all their money to buy a home. Okonkwo's father worked in a sawmill and his mother was a basket weaver. Okonkwo had 2 brothers; Elias and Felix, both of which were younger than him (by 2 and 6 years respectively).

Okonkwo got offered a scholarship despite not having a history of education. He was offered a scholarship by the University of New Amsterdam. Mr. Lavoie recalls his life by saying, "I had a secret stash of textbooks which I used to get from my friends, whose families were richer than my family was."

President Lavoie took a science degree but moved on to take more subjects as the scholarship allowed him to do so. He received recognition while peeking through a 12th Grade math class. He could do calculus, unlike students in the class. He was 10 years old!

He finally took up politics and decided to be a politician.

The 6 economic zones put together house more than 80% of Brickston's population and more than 85% of the country's GDP.

These economic zones have their own regional council and are semi-autonomous. They hold their own elections and create their own budget with the judiciary overlooking and approving it.

Teenage Billionaire builds an island

Katherune Wurst
Greg Walton, a 19-year-old multi-billionaire has built himself a private island in Doh Tin Mah City. The exceptional teenager was born in rural Edgemorta and is now a CEO, an investor, a stand-up comedian and a singer. He even has 10% of Reyali Corporation, hence making him the youngest billionaire in Brickston and the second youngest billionaire in the European Union.

However, with all his fame, he is still a helper. He tells BNC, "I plan to donate 15% of my money earned to a charity in Edgemorta, because the people of Edgemorta really helped me. Moreover, I plan to start a non-profit [organization] to help children on the streets."

Brickston strengthens relations with its neighbours

Felix Addenburg
Brickston's new influence in the European Union comes with a larger economy. Unlike the report a month ago which suggested a plummet in the Briekish Economy, economists now predict a 4% growth in the economy for the next quarter. This is huge for a developed country.

Much of this growth comes from loosening business restrictions due to a policy that was repealed 2 weeks ago by the Briekish Supreme Authority. To add to that, many nations are interested to trade with a nation rich in oil, uranium and gold reserves.

However, a growing threat in Brickston is the age demographic. Brickston has an ageing population. However, the population of the youth is seeing signs of growth, with more than 400,000 people entering the workforce every year.

Biography: Young Margaret Thatcher was born in a rural village in the province of Orsemorco (present-day Osetham) in communistic South Brickston. When she was a child, she always wanted to be a doctor but her parents insisted that she'd be a taxi driver (her disposable salary would be higher if she were to be a taxi driver under the South Brickston system of taxes and salaries). She was very bright as a young child, and was seemingly attached to 6th grade algebra textbooks while she was just in second grade. As a teenager, she would write about her daily life, including how she and her parents successfully escaped South Brickston through the Portovo Wall on a cold winter night. The sorrowful string of the story was that her father was caught in the wall and sent to prison. It was for 23 years that she did not she her father. She soon received a scholarship in the University of Amsterdam, a prestigious university (also called "Grande Stettlemorgen Universitat") to study medicine and law. She also started a business, something she couldn't do in South Brickston, and managed finances to also be a politician.

ECONOMISTS PREDICT A PLUMMET IN THE BRIEKISH ECONOMY.

By Felix Addenburg
Fredierk Seawell has often criticized the Briekish economy for being too reliant on the tourism industry, which is his reasoning for a hypothetical plummet in the economy in the next few years. The tourism industry has performed at its worst since 25 years ago.

Mr. Seaswell added, "To prevent a recession, the government should prioritize lower taxation rates and privatize industries.
