The Right Honorable '''Viteu Marcianüs''' (popularly referred to as [[Citizen Nicknames|V]]) is a citizen of [[Talossa]] and of [[Vuode]] and the current [[Minister of Culture]].
After dealing with what Viteu perceived as perpetual hypocrisy from those on the other side of Talossan political spectrum and having himself and his friends be the targets of insults, Viteu had a rather public meltdown and decide to leave the Kingdom of Talossa on December 30, 2013. Viteu felt this was the best path as Talossa ceased being fun and became a constant point of stress, which detracted from other aspects of his life.

== Introduction to the Kingdom of Talossa ==
 
In the summer of 2006, Viteu resided in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oceanside,_NY Oceanside, NY] and worked in a resort community known as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherry_Grove,_New_York Cherry Grove on Fire Island in New York] five days a week. He had a lot of free time to drink and live a carefree life of debauchery and decadence. The days were spent working in the kitchen, both as a dish washer and doing food prep, at a restaurant. The nights consisted of vast amounts of beer, vodka, and rum. During one of these nights, the term micronation got thrown around by some friends with whom he had been drinking.
 
After going home on his days off, he quickly researched micronations and discovered the Kingdom of Taloss.  He applied for citizenship on July 27, 2006 was instructed by then Secretary of State [[King_John|John Woolley]] to create a [http://talossa.proboards.com/ Wittenberg] account. Viteu did just this and promptly created an account and was introduced to the Kingdom on [http://talossa.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=immigration&action=display&thread=2561&page=1 July 31, 2006.] Once a fortnight had passed, [http://talossa.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=1186 a petition to grant him citizenship] was offered. Citizenship was granted on [http://talossa.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=immigration&thread=2561&page=1#21907 August 21, 2006.]
 
== National Politics ==
=== Early days and the RUMP ===
 
After he became a citizen, Viteu joined the [[RUMP]] and served as a [[Cosa|Member of Cosa (MC)]] in the [[36th_Cosa|36th]], [[37th_Cosa|37th]], and [[38th_Cosa|38th]] Cosas. He also served as Deputy Minister of Immigration and [[Minister_of_Immigration|Minister of Immigration]] during this period. During his tenure as Immigration Minister, he started the [[TALOSSAssistant]] program and oversaw Talossa grow to over one hundred citizens. By the time of the 38th Cosa, he resigned his position as Immigration Minister and took the position of ''Capo di tutti capi'' in the Mysterious Executive Coven.
 
=== Member of the Opposition ===
 
By the end of the 38th Cosa, Viteu had decided to experiment with Opposition politics. After a mild disagreement with the RUMP leadership, he joined the newly formed [[CSPP|Progressive Party]] and served as an MC in the [[39th Cosa]]. He was also a member of the ZPT during the [[40th Cosa]].
 
=== Return to the RUMP ===
 
After a tumultuous election season, Marcianüs went through a period of inactivity. When he returned, he decided to enter the Senatorial race in [[Vuode]] for the seat vacated by Sir [[Trotxâ Betiñéir]]. He ran as the RUMP candidate and was largely considered the underdog, as opposition parties had dominated Vuodean politics for some time. Marcianüs won a surprise victory and has served the RUMP faithfully ever since. On 23 July 2012, Viteu became the [http://talossa.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=general&thread=7121&page=1#78300 Minister of Culture].
 
== Politics of Vuode ==
 
Viteu has been active in the politics of [[Vuode]] since becoming a citizen. After a period of inactivity, Viteu entered into the Senatorial race when Sir Trotxâ Betiñéir vacated his seat at the end of the 40th Cosa. During this period, Vuode was dominated by Opposition politics and Viteu was seen as a long shot. Nevertheless, he managed to win election even though he campaigned against the Constitution of 2010, which passed. Viteu stood for an uncontested election for the U-Class Premier during the 44th Cosa election for Vuode's [[Estats_Xhenerais_(Vuode)|Estats Xhenerais]]. He has since voted, along with the other Premiers, to call a Constitutional Convention and fix the problems of Vuode.
 
== Other Activities in Talossa ==
 
On March 13, 2012, Viteu changed his Talossan name from [http://talossa.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=general&thread=6235&page=1 Viteu Toctviac'hteir to Viteu Marcianüs.]
Viteu has hosted the [[Talossa News Project]] (TNP) for the last few years. The show consisted of Viteu interviewing different Talossans about day to day issues facing the kingdom.
 
Viteu contributed to a coloring book for [[Dandelion|dandelions]] published in 2008.
 
== Life outside of Talossa ==
 
Viteu was born in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bay_Shore,_New_York Bay Shore, NY]  on August 19, 1986. He remained in Bay Shore until his pre-teen years when he spent some time in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belleview,_FL Belleview, FL]. During his 7th grade year, he moved to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brentwood,_NY Brentwood, NY.
 
After dropping out of high school during his senior year, Viteu spent some time traveling the East Coast and lived in North Carolina and Georgia.

After dealing with what Viteu perceived as perpetual hypocrisy from those on the other side of Talossan political spectrum and having himself and his friends be the targets of insults, Viteu had a rather public meltdown and decide to leave the Kingdom of Talossa on December 30, 2013. Viteu felt this was the best path as Talossa ceased being fun and became a constant point of stress, which detracted from other aspects of his life.
