PCBaller World/Hubert Ziółkowski (Character)

Not to be confused with Hubert Ziółkowski (Person)

Hubert Ziółkowski (born January 19, 2004) is a prominent Polish politician and former ambassador, currently serving as the Kultokrat of the Polish Social Nationalist Republic. Ziółkowski has held the position of Kultokrat since 202X, and is expected to remain in the position for the foreseeable future, as the position is not subject to term limits.

Ziółkowski began his political career as an ambassador to Myanmar. However, he was later dismissed from the position due to allegations that he was too friendly with the Military Junta government. He then served as the Ambassador to Japan for a year and a half before leaving the position.

After leaving his post as ambassador, Ziółkowski co-founded the Union of Nationalist Parties with Tamara Vlasov. This party eventually entered into a coalition with Konfederacja, becoming the main opposition party in Poland until Ziółkowski orchestrated a coup on the 3rd Republic of Poland, proclaiming the Polish Social Nationalist Republic.

During Ziółkowski's tenure as Kultokrat, Poland has experienced rapid industrialization and a sustainable increase in the national birth rate. Despite the ongoing Eastern Crisis, the majority of the Polish population has experienced a higher standard of living under Ziółkowski's leadership than they did under the 3rd Republic. Ziółkowski's regime has also facilitated Poland's emergence on the international stage, with the country becoming a founding member of multiple international organizations.

However, Ziółkowski's coup has also led to a less democratic system of government in Poland. People are only allowed to vote on specific issues, while the majority of state action is carried out through the executive branch.

Early Life
Hubert Hołda, known today as Hubert Ziółkowski, was born on January 19, 2004, in Gorzów Wielkopolski, Poland (now Landsberg an der Warthe, North Germany). He was the eldest of three children. Ziółkowski's great-grandfather, Józef Ziółkowski, was a Polish property owner in the Kresy region. During the Second World War, Ukrainian Nationalists attacked the property, tortured the inhabitants, and burned it to the ground. Only Józef Ziółkowski and his mother Bronisława Ziółkowska escaped. This traumatic event left a lasting impression on the family, and Ziółkowski was raised in a Western-skeptic household. He partially attributes his opposition to the Ukrainian state to his family history.

Ziółkowski's mother and father were university students at the time of his birth. Not much is known about his father, and Ziółkowski either refuses to answer press questions about the topic or simply states that he knows nothing.

During his early years, Ziółkowski was primarily taken care of by his mother at her dormitory. After she finished her studies, she left him with his grandmother in Myślibórz. Ziółkowski remained with his grandmother until he was eight years old when his mother took him with her to London.

London
Hubert Ziółkowski recollects his time in London with a sense of isolation and detachment. Having relocated to London at the age of 8 with his mother, he struggled to overcome the language barrier and was extremely introverted as a child. Gradually, he acclimatized to the new environment and pursued his education through primary school, secondary school, and sixth form, all the while being witness to the unfolding of the European migrant crisis of 2015. In combination with the encouragement of his friend during history class and his teenage contrarianism, this catalyzed Ziółkowski's foray into the realm of politics. Initially identifying as a Stalinist, he later shifted to a left-wing populist, then to a right-wing populist, national socialist, and ultimately, Falangist, before finally discovering Social Nationalism on an online forum. This structure appealed to him greatly, as it was congruent with his pre-existing beliefs. He joined the project and disseminated its principles, while refining its ideology in tandem. However, Ziółkowski's involvement in this endeavor was short-lived as he lost contact with his partner, which spurred him to withdraw from the public sphere of politics and hone the finer details of Social Nationalism. He re-engaged in the political realm in the wake of the Russo-Ukrainian War, triggered by a tumultuous breakup. As soon as he attained legal adulthood in the summer of 2022, he promptly returned to his native Poland.

Back in Poland
Hubert Ziółkowski spent his summer in Poland aiding in the maintenance and restoration of property owned by his mother, as well as seeking admission to a university. Upon acceptance, he secured lodging in a dormitory and commuted to his grandmother's residence to lend a hand on the weekends. However, Ziółkowski's expectations for a renewed sense of contentment following his return to Poland were not met, and instead he found himself falling deeper into alcoholism. In an attempt to reconcile with his political ideals, Ziółkowski initially joined the Samoobrona party but was subsequently dismissed for his stance on the Russo-Ukrainian war. He later became a member of the Confederation of the Polish Crown and while the party did not emerge victorious in the elections, Ziółkowski triumphed in his hometown and powiat, securing a seat in the Polish sejm. However, due to the controversial nature of his beliefs and perceived threat he posed, the Polish government offered him the position of Ambassador to Myanmar, which he accepted.

Time in Asia
As the Polish Ambassador to Myanmar, Ziółkowski's diplomatic efforts included cross-cultural engagements and urging the Warsaw government to support Myanmar in combating terrorism. When the government refused to cooperate with the military junta in Myanmar, Ziółkowski made a threat to return to Poland and run in the elections once again. In response, the Polish government decided to dismiss him from the position of ambassador to Myanmar and appoint him as Ambassador to Japan.

During his tenure in Japan, Ziółkowski endeavored to maintain a low profile to avoid controversy and focused on personal matters. By the end of his term, he had entered into a relationship. He spent much of his time in Japan promoting the Japanese warrior spirit, negotiating trade deals, and discreetly donating significant portions of his income to nationalist groups affiliated with his partner. After a year and a half, a rising public figure in Poland, Tamara Vlasov, extended an invitation to Ziółkowski to form a party, which they named the United Nationalist Parties. Consequently, Ziółkowski resigned from his position as Ambassador to Japan and returned to Szczecin to continue his domestic political activities.

2nd return home
Upon his return to Poland, Ziółkowski collaborated with Tamara Vlasov to form the United Nationalist Parties, which gained initial success due to growing anti-Ukrainian sentiment in Poland. Ziółkowski established the Grupa Szturmowa, a paramilitary organization for the party, as well as the Zabójcy Zła, an organization of military officers under his direction. As the collapse of the United States led the Konfederacja coalition in Poland to shift toward a pro-Russia stance, Ziółkowski negotiated a coalition between UNP and Konfederacja with Braun.

Subsequently, Ziółkowski would triumph in the Myślibórz election and return to the Sejm. In the ensuing national elections, the UNP-Konfederacja coalition would secure 49% of the vote, resulting in a deadlock on 99% of the issues that emerged, owing to the parties' nearly diametrically opposed worldviews. Meanwhile, Ziółkowski would enter into matrimony with his significant other, Kaido, at the primary church in Myślibórz.

The Sejm's gridlock resulted in instability and an economic downturn that persisted without remedy. As a result, the membership of the Grupa Szturmowa and Zabójcy Zła increased rapidly, and they became the enforcers of the UNP-Konfederacja coalition's agenda. Essentially, Poland became a police state under the GS and ZZ. Many army members deserted and switched to the GS after Ziółkowski's speech about the army in Lódź. The ZZ was the driving force behind the establishment of the Lwów National Republic, with Ziółkowski delivering a speech during the war in Lwów. During the gridlock, the Sejm made only one decision, which was the annexation of Lithuania in the early stages of the Russian collapse. Ziółkowski subsequently organized a victory march in Wilno for the ZZ and GS to commemorate the Żeligowski's Mutiny.
