Jong Arnold

Sergeant Jong Koreben Arnold (middle name pronounced "koe-REE-ben"), also called Jong or Chairman Arnold, is Barrick Abanana's personal assistant and senior advisor. His nickname, "Chairman Arnold", was derived from his strong persuasion tactics over the actual Minister of the Treasury.

Barrick often accepts and enacts Jong's proposals, thinking that Jong was wise in his decision and that he is doing the right thing. In fact, some theorize that this advisor is actually more powerful than anyone wants to admit.

Early life, debated citizenship
Jong Arnold hatched in an igloo which amazingly sat exactly on what is now the border of East Pengolia and Eastshield. Since he hatched long before 2009 (E. Pengolia's incpetion) and 2003 (W. Pengolia's admission to the States), and in the days of Colonial Antarctica.

The USA is the successor state of the Colonies, so his citizenship was transferred from the Crown to the USA without much problems. He was a citizen of Colonial Antarctica. However, after the inception of Eastshield and the USA, it was now questioned whether he was territorial (AKA hatched in USA occupied area but not a state and thus not a national citizen) or native to the USA (born in Eastshield thus a citizen of the USA and said state). Since the colonies were abolished in favor of new states, and because the States didn't cover all of Antarctica, the remaining areas were occupied and not eligible for native citizenship in its pure sense.

The Cabinet considered him to be of Eastshield, though others claim he should be counted as territorial, and therefore not a native citizen of the States. It is important to note, however, that any government position (including the President) can be held by a foreigner or non-citizen should they win the seat.

Still, not being a natural citizen in Eastshield leads questions over whether Jong's loyalty completely lies with the USA, or if his territorial origins make him more of a stateless creature.

Early life and pre-military existance
This status, along with his appearence, resulted in ridicule by his peers, and, according to some, made him an isolated, bitter penguin with a nasty temper.

His chickhood provides little on his current behavior, but old friends report that Jong was a big fan of "military-themed toys" and played with them a lot. They state that he was always "grandiloquent", exhibiting only the most formal of manner and behavior. Bowing, apologizing, and full spelling out of titles (like Patriarch Benzin or His Majesty, Explorer 767, Bureaucrat of the CPFW), and addrssing by full title (Your Telephonavin to the P.O.P.E., Your Majesty to any noble, even Explorer, ect.), were all common through Jong's life.

As a chick, he despised the rich, despite his eighteenth-entury aristocrat clothing. He was against the King and wanted a more worker-centric government, sort of like Bolsheevic Penguinsky many years later.

As an adolescent, he protested regularly against the wealthy and the nobles (folks like TSP and Swiss Ninja were major subjects), though he was ignored.

He was strongly against nobility in Club Penguin (AKA "I'm famous" or "I'm rare"), and also tried protesting against that when he vacationed to CP.

For the Revolutionists
In 1998, he chose to join the military on the side of the Revolutionists. For a while, he liked the cause and overthrowal of the King, and he aspired to see a new worker-centric government take hold. When he learned of the budding Krytocracy, however, he quickly began to hate the USA, whose freedom-advocates he was siding with. He rose to the rank of Seargent First Class by the time he had formulated his master plan.

Traitor!
Seeing that his fellow Revolutionists were "evil" in his mindset for implementing another aristocrat government, Jong secretly decided to aid the King, which he considered "the lesser of the two evils". He was entrusted with caring for of East Apex, a military college seized by the Revolutionists and used to teach those against the King how to beat him.

He decided to secretly hand the town to the Crown and escape right after giving control, but he had forgot his dinner meeting with Tommyjeff369 on that day. Tommy caught him red-flippered in the act of talking to a Loyalist official, and that was that. Tommy immediantly attacked Jong, but he escaped and fled to an unknown area until the war ended. East Apex remained in the Revolutionist's control.

After the Treason
When the USA formed, he was strongly against it, particularly because of his now questionable citizenship (the Colonies were entirely incorporated on the whole continent, the States were not) as opposed to his affirmed colonial status, and his treason. His military service for the Crown, and especially his grossly disgisting treason had him in a tight spot.

Jong developed an interest in money because of his various odd jobs. His criticism of the status quo and the wealthy, plus his treasom didn't land him very good oppurtunities in a career, so he worked as a janitor or McDoodles burger flipper. Money was tight for him. Yet, Jong worked his way up in the world of economics and money management, always hunting for bargains even after he himself became rich, a fact of his life which he tries to cover up.

Jong is a super-cheapskate. He always hunts out the lowest bargains, and he saves every coupon he can get his flippers on. He is in fact a millionaire, but he refuses to acknowledge and/or speak of it at any time. He acts as if he was working middle class, and hunts for low prices like one, too.

His financial prowess soon overshadowed his treason, which no one really remembered as patriotism faded to a normal occurance. Barrick Abanana, completely unaware of Jong's military past, appointed the penguin to be his highest advisor.
