TheOneAndOnlyGod

Elian Elyas, better known as TheOneAndOnlyGod or God, is a current associate Supreme Court justice, first Minister of Education, former Member of the National Assembly of Doggerland, former leader of the Justice Party, and former mayor of Rotsibaai.

Early Life
God (born Nicolas Elyas) was born on March 18, 1988, to Patricia Elyas and Romeo Elyas, in Mistlân, Zuidvis. The two were filipino immigrants. Raised in a mixed English-Dutch neighborhood, they were raised speaking both fluently, as well as speaking Tagalog conversatioanally. God attended Weststream Primary School and Eaststream Secondary School. God majored in law at the University of the City of Mistlân, earning a Bachelor's Degree in Law in 2009. They attended a 5-year law program between 2009-2014, before becoming a real-estate attorney in 2015.

Mayor of Rotsibaai (2016-2020)
God served as mayor of Rotsibaai between March 27, 2016, and March 27, 2020. Becoming mayor at the age of 28, they were the city's youngest mayor. While mayor, God strengthened Rotsibaai's public transport and reformed the city's education system. Whilst God won the 2020 mayoral election, they decided their deputy mayor, Valerie van der Bijl, should serve the following term due to God's worsening COVID-19 infection, which they eventually survived.

Leader of the Justice Party (January 2021 - February 2021)
On January 26, 2021, following the Doggerland political crisis of January 2021, God became leader of the Justice Party, taking over from previous leader Mila DeVries. They chose DryCleaningBuffalo to be the deputy leader of the Justice Party. Following negotiations with the Labor Worker's Party and the United Left People's Party, the Justice Party became part of the Forward! Alliance for Progressive Action. At 1:59 P.M. EST, on February 17, 2021, God announced the immediate dissolution of the Justice Party and its merger with the Labor Worker's Party.

National Assembly of Doggerland (January 2021 - February 2021)
God was elected to the National Assembly of Doggerland following the January 2021 legislative elections. God served as a Justice Party MP for half a month, and as a Labor-Worker's MP for under a day. During this time, God voted yes on progressive laws, but came in some conflict with the rest of the Forward! Alliance.

Minister of Education (January 2021 - February 2021)
God was promised the leadership of the Ministry of Education by Kevin Trevor during early negotiations on forming a coalition, and they were made the Minister of Education following the January 2021 legislative elections. God is often considered to be the Minister of Education who did the least during their long tenure.

Associate Justice of the Supreme Court (February 2021 - present)


God was chosen to be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of Doggerland by acting Prime Minister Mel. God was forced to resign from the National Assembly and from the Ministry of Education to become associate justice.

Serving under Chief Justice Arjun The Great, the Supreme Court has yet to be open for session and has yet to be confirmed by the National Assembly.

"God" Nickname
God earned the nickname following a blunder in a 2016 campaign speech. They mistakenly referred to themselves when talking about God, stating, "When I created the world..." God quickly fixed the mistake, but the moment went viral on social media platforms, where users quickly started to refer to them as "God". Soon after, God endorse the usage of the nickname, and it was used in official mayoral campaign materials. By 2017, users on atheist message boards began to call God "TheOneAndOnlyGod." Pieter van der Berg wrote in the De Zuidvis Dagblad, "It seems this nickname is being used as a protest against the religious establishment and against religious institutions. By claiming Elyas to be the one and only God, users are claiming that God does not exist, and that anybody could be God if they claimed. Thus, users are saying that if anybody claiming to be God could be God, then what's to say God even exists."

Equal Rights
God is in favor of equal rights for all, except Italians. God hates Italians.

Immigration
God is in favor of allowing more immigrants and refugees in Doggerland. Except Italians.

Taxation
God favors higher taxes for the upper classes, and tax cuts for the working class.

Expansion of the Federal Government
God believes in the expansion of the federal government. They believe in nationalising healthcare and education in Doggerland.

Italians


God is known for their radical hatred of the Italian people, wanting to detain, deport, and execute every 3rd, 2nd, and 1st generation Italian immigrant to Doggerland.

Foreign Policy
God is against Doggish intervention in foreign wars. Instead, they favor wielding soft power and diplomatic leverage against nations which they believe to be in violation of human rights.

Assault of Constituents
While mayor of Rotsibaai, God was known to frequently yell insults at constituents, especially those who disagreed with their mayorship.



God was also known to sometimes physically assault constituents. This included a 4 year-old boy who wanted a hug from God, who was left with lethal brain and chest injuries from the assault. He later died at a hospital due to the injuries inflicted. This led to severe criticism from the media, social media users, and other politicians. However, God's approval rating skyrocketted to 97% following the incident, seen as a consequence of Rotsibaai's hatred of children.

"Jerks" Incident
Following a January 2021 poll, God earned a net approval rating of +17.5% (the 3rd highest among partisan leaders). This would lead to God lashing out at the nation, yelling "Which of you jerks disapprove of my leadership?" in a January 31 speech televised to the nation.

Italian Racism
God hates Italians.

Alleged NPD Sympathies and Viagra Incident


Some critics believe God bears hatred for the Dutch and for Calvinism due to God's support in the rights of the Doggish minorites, which some have tied to NPD sympathies. God has repeatedly rebuked these claims, once stating, "These claims are as limp and flaccid as an old man's pelvic leg without Viagra ." This remark about Viagra was seen as vulgar and rude at the time, bringing much media criticism to God on traditional news outlets and on social media.

Sworick Rights
God believes in the rights of Sworicks, which has led some to call God a furry.

Sudden Dissolution of the Justice Party
On February 17, 2021, God made a sudden announcement that immediately dissolved the Justice Party and moved all its resources to the Labor Worker's Party. This move was seen as brash and inconsiderate to many critics. The sudden move was also linked to corruption, as Mel, the acting prime minister and LWP member, appointed God to the Supreme Court just hours after the announcement.

Personal Life
God uses he/him, she/her, and they/them pronouns, and identifies as nonbinary and bisexual. God's favorite restaurant chain is Red Lobster.

God married Eli Greenwood on June 14, 2019. The two of them got married in Rotsibaai. God and Eli also maintain a romantic relationship with Hazen Vinke. All three of them are in a polyamorous relationship. On February 15, 2021, Greenwood announced on social media that the three were waiting on a pending adoption.

Raised in a family practicing Catholicism, God claims Catholic teaching has influenced their political views about civil rights and equality. God currently identifies as agnostic.
