Prior to Spode's entry to the LCN, he was mostly involved in a region known as The Unity Council. When that region collapsed due to meddling from [[Icares]], he moved alongside Amaanland to the LCN.
 
  
=LCN=
+
'''Spode Humbled Minions''', also known as '''Spode''' or '''Mechanocracy''', is a long time politician of [[The League]] and [[Concord]]. Joining NationStates on 13 May 2016, they would engage in a series of regional mergers that resulted in them joining [[The League of Conservative Nations]] (now The League). Throughout their career in League politics, they have put forward multiple bills, as well as headed various governmental agencies, both currently extant and defunct.
==Roleplays==
 
==Governmental participation==
 
Spode's introduction to governmental participation was an appointment to the LCN prison region, an ill fated project, justified by [[Quebecshire (politician)|CSNA]] at the time with
 
{{Quote
 
|text="Lets say, Zealand discloses classified info, but i dont want to ban him, so i send him to prison for a week, if he does not post on RMB, and lives in prison for a week, hes back and forgiven!"<ref>https://www.nationstates.net/page=rmb/postid=20902618</ref>
 
}}
 
This was not a popular move, and after around a week, both Spode and Tanner456 returned from 'prison' to the LCN, concluding Spode's short career as prison guard.
 
  
===Actions as Senate Speaker===
+
In addition to governmental service, they have created and run organizations like the SPICE Index, a currency exchange and financial prediction company and a League registered media company known as ''[[The 5th Column]]''.
Spode was appointed to this position by then-president Icaris. During his time as Senate Speaker, Spode created a new system of interlinked dispatches, and conducted a census/review of the regional population and citizenship-statuses. Overall, this section of Spode's political career was rather unremarkable.
 
  
===Career as LCNIA Director===
+
In 2023, they programmed the [[Forum Monitor]], a Discord integration that automatically provides links to current League forum posts, as well as the [[Data Anole]], a program that produces dispatches automatically, as part of an imitative to build up the technical ecosystem of the Republic.
