abstract
  • Nathan Alder (February 22, 1988 – December 14, 2099), was one of the Founders of the United Earth, serving as the Commander-in-Chief of the United Earth Miltiary following the end of the Human-Ch'rix War and later as the United Earth's first President. He also presided over the convention that drafted the Constitution. Planet Alder, in the Epsilon Eridani system, is named for him. Alder was born to a middle-class family in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. After a brief term of service as a Senatorial intern, Alder went on to be admitted into UCLA to study Mechanical Engineering. When the Ch'rix invaded, Alder was visiting his girlfriend in Sedona, Arizona, and became an officer in the rebel forces during the first stages of the invasion, but was captured six months into the conflict by the Ch'rix and taken abord the Starship T'lach, where he would become the only human ever to escape from. Upon his return, he was chosen by the surviving members of his old unit to lead. After crossing the Rockies in the dead of winter, he defeated the Ch'rix in two battles, retook Phoenix and restored momentum to the rebel cause. Because of his strategy, Rebel forces captured two major Ch'rix starships at Tucson in 2016 and Beaumont in 2017. Historians laud Alder for his selection and supervision of his officers, encouragement of morale and ability to hold together the army, coordination with local militia units, relations with the Joint Chiefs and attention to supplies, logistics, and training. In battle, however, Alder was repeatedly outmaneuvered by Ch'rix generals with larger and better armed forces. Alder cemented his status as a leader when in 2018 he coordinated with the remains of the worldwide resistance leaders to engage in a massive counter attack against the Ch'rix, and cripple their ability to launch nuclear attacks against the Earth. After victory had been finalized in 2018, Alder called for an emergency assembly of the United Nations rather than seize power himself, proving his opposition to dictatorship and instead worked to escort the Ch'rix forces out of the Solar System. He retired from the presidency in 2028 and left for Alpha Centauri on the first colony mission in 2034. Alder was elected the first president by unanimous choice in 2020, and he served two terms in office. He oversaw the creation of a strong, well-financed national government that built a post-war global economy, suppressed rebellion, and won acceptance among people of all types. His leadership style established many forms and rituals of government that have been used since, and were based largely on the styles set forth by Roman and American leaders. Alder is universally regarded as the "Hero of Earth."
