(A follow-up to this. Enjoy and, hopefully, tell me what do you think. NOTE: Uplifts live a bit longer than their... more primitive predecessors)
"Humans make good shows out of their boomsticks, but they forget a major attribute every animal has: ingenuity. If we make them underestimate us, if we outwit them, if we make them lose control of the situation... they'll be more than just defeated. They will be destroyed. It'll be a small victory in terms of size, but it will be a victory nonetheless".
~ Cheche speaking to her ministers and troops, just before the Battle of Kilimanjaro.
"What is this madness?! Sister against sister, brother against brother, male against female... Disunity will only kill us, just as what man wants. If we want to bring down humanity, we must stand together and fight! Humanity alone cannot take down the colorful array that makes up our Coalition".
~ An excerpt from Cheche's famous Scavenger Hill speech, in which she responds to some hyenas' inquiries about the Coalition and the other hyenas.
Cheche was an important political figure during the Uplift Wars and the primary person of interest during the Hyena Revolutionary Wars. She was the first Leader of the Hyena Revolutionary League, one of the first Hyena political parties, and the first Chief Secretary of the United Authority of Hyena Clans. Among Hyenas and many other uplifted species (and there are many), she is revered as the "uniter of Hyenakind". Notably, Cheche brought many reforms to Hyena society, being a staunch foe of misandry prevalent among spotted hyenas.
Cheche was born in Musoma, Tanzania, in a local zoo. Terrorized by nightmares, and eventually left orphaned when her mother suddenly passed away from an illness, Cheche was a quiet hyena of weak health. And yet, she was deeply insightful and intelligent. Unusually enough, Cheche managed to learn Swahili and English. Just as curious as any other uplift, she was overjoyed when a TV was installed in the zoo. Unfortunately, Lion King was playing at the time.
Cheche's entire life was changed when Cotton, an uplifted blue monkey, and Panzer, an uplifted common chimpanzee, organized an escape from the zoo. They allowed Cheche to join them. While the escape ultimately succeeded, Cotton and Panzer parted ways with Cheche, and the young hyena was left alone to search for her own kin. While Cheche was nearly booted out and killed when she was discovered in a library, reading a book while eating chicken, and was hungry for a long time, Cheche survived and thrived. She eventually discovered hyena villages in the savannah. During her life there, she has made many friends, and yet she came to be disgusted with the treatment of hyena males by hyena females (in Spotted society) as well as with the disunity of hyenakind. She enlisted as a teacher in the hyena villages, and was one of the first people to modernize the hyena education system. While distrusted by the matriarchs and the more conservative hyenas, she was beloved. In 2118, she fell in love with Zakia, a minor scavenger of Striped descent, and they became mates. In 2120, she became Chief of the so-called "Tanzanian Clandom", a large Hyena tribe in East Africa, when the previous matriarch, Dansi, gifted her the position for her many accomplishments and efforts.
As the Chief of the Tanzanian Clandom, she began her efforts to unite the Hyenas. The human authorities didn't pay much attention... until 2124. The paranoid Tanzanian administration cracked down upon the Hyenas and intervened, but this only caused a backlash as Cheche became even more radical and anti-human in her program to unite the Hyenas. In 2124, the Hyena Revolutionary League was founded; in 2126, Cheche left her position as Chief to become the Chief Secretary of the United Authority of Hyena Clans, an all-hyena organization founded thanks to her efforts, and just a few months later Cheche contacted the Global Rat Association[1]. All of this made humans of Tanzania even more scared, and, when all around the world the Uplift Wars began, Tanzania attacked first. Cheche was quick to respond. Her army, reformed just recently (in 2129), fought bravely and ferociously against the foes of Hyenakind.
While small, the Battle of Kilimanjaro was prolonged and vicious, an example of exceptional brutality shown during the Uplift Wars. Mount Kilimanjaro was one of the Hyenas' primary hideouts. Major General David Chilemba, sent to quash Hyena resistance, deeply underestimated them, which is what Cheche expected. With 15,000 Tanzanian soldiers following Chilemba into the mountains, Cheche ordered several hyena battalions and brigades to surround Kilimanjaro, preventing the Tanzanian forces from escaping. It helped that it was an unusually misty day. Chilemba found himself cursing as he realized he has been outwitted and trapped by a mere hyena, all while Tanzania's young sons were killed by the hyenas. However, what could have been a strong, decisive victory has been foiled by American drones and help for the Tanzanians in the form of Kenyans (armed with flamethrowers), and, after a tedious battle, David Chilemba and Cheche were forced to the negotiating table.
After the end of the Uplift Wars, Cheche has become a celebrity among uplifts. With her reasonable nature and intelligence, and for her reforms and peacemaking efforts, Cheche was loved by the various uplifted species, even if she hated the spotlight, but has gotten herself many enemies. Cheche stayed the leader of both the Hyena Revolutionary League and the United Authority of Hyena Clans until her death on September 2nd of 2142. During her visit to Tanga, she stayed in a hotel. After having dinner (brought to her by an unidentified monkey bellboy), she went to sleep and never woke up. As it turns out, her dinner - raw steak - contained traces of poison.
While a controversial figure, and denounced by primarily human detractors as a torture technician, terrorist and puppet of the Global Rat Association, Cheche is still beloved by many Hyenas as the "uniter of Hyenakind".
[1]: Rats were the primary aggressors in the Uplift Wars, and some of the first species to be uplifted (alongside dogs, cats and parrots). Indeed - the uplifted rats are considered to have been the leaders of the united "Anti-Human Coalition" that fought in the Uplift Wars.

Something short, without context and about Madagascar. Sorry.
While 58 years old, Andrianjaka IV is cheerful, tech-savvy and accepting of reforms, such as the recent parliament-approved reform of education. Andrianjaka IV remains popular, though there are accusation of corruption, mainly tied to his prime minister Mandresy Masoandro...

A completely ASB wikibox but a great one for fans of Thomas the Tank Engine.
The fourth generation of the fat controller, he was elected as MP of Sodor in 2010, following the retirement of his father, Stephen. As the Labour party began to fall apart, Richard Topham Hatt was able to unite the Liberal Democratic Party to become the leader of opposition to Theresa May.
In the 2020 general election, he became Prime Minister.

I like Jo-Nathan Nell. Who is she?
His family is pretty much liberal.
The railway were nationalized, which the family did not argue against.
The family work with their trains in a liberal manor, allowing female trains.
The family had links with liberal mp, see Uncle.
I didn't want him to be a typical conservative overweight man lol and wanted to push him away from the typical unionist.
Watsonian: Leader of the People's Democratic Development Movement, which has been democratically developing the Six Mile Reserve since it wiped out the Popular Readiness Association there in the 1960s, and whose parents probably really wanted a boy.
Doyleist: A pilot in the SC ANG, I think, its been awhile.
Thank you, I do try and make them relevant to the 21st century
and helpful enough to get a laureate awardJcw3

Eduard Surovyi is a Russian/Swedish/God knows what but mostly Russian acoustic guitarist. He is the author of 29,360,940 songs (according to him, however, it's 29,360,949 songs) and, much unfortunately, a singer. He gives only six-hour concerts.
Eduard was born in Stockholm, 1980, in 666th of Undecimber under the Devil astrology sign, to an unfortunate family of a seamstress and two engineers who abandoned him before his conception. Eduard was caught and raised by fans of the "Spartak" soccer club. As a result, Eduard did not speak until 36 - he screamed. In fact, boys in the neighborhood called him "oral". Eduard died young, but unfortunately someone left the door to Hell open. Doctors fought for his death, but, unfortunately, Eduard was alive and healthy like never before. The decision to become a musician came to his head during an "Aria" concert, when the members of the group beat him with bicycle chains, tuning before the concert.
Eduard Surovyi's career started off enchantingly, his first song was gripping on to the toilet rim for six weeks until it was mercilessly washed away with Eduard's second song. Eduard lost his virginity during his fiftieth anniversary... it just so happened that his neighbor didn't have any gifts.
Eduard is notable for being the first musician to give a solo perfomance in the second reactor of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant... seven minutes after its explosion.
As of currently, he has also wrote another 5,909,274 songs. He has performed on TV channels such as "Russia Yesterday", "The Last One", "Baba TV", "Hell TV", "*** TV", "Pimple TV", "Chest TV", "NTV Minus" ("-NTV"), "CKTZ TV" and "Karen TV", radio stations such as "Russian Unradio", "Scream of Podmoskovye", and on the web TV channel "Golden Rain".

If you want it to come down to a near tie, if you take the 2016 results (which isn't exactly scientific due to how much things can change) and flip Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Maine's 2nd, and add Nebraska's 2nd as a 'fluke', you can have a map like this:
Exactly 270 for the Democrats, and 268 for the Republicans. Alternatively you can flip Virginia and Wisconsin and remove Nebraska's 2nd.
It's from the original In Power box, when I mentioned it was based on a stage play. I made that, though "well, why not have a box for Douglas-Home himself", then thought "well, people will probably ask what 'A Serious Man' is", and I made that based on Cecil King's coup.
