| - Strasson's life growing up through the Westlandic Industrial Revolution in the latter half of the 19th century influenced his ideals, coming from a working class family in Brikkstö, he gained a scholarship to study Philosophy and Sociology at University, and became particularly influenced in literature and art alongside. Much of Strasson's artwork depicts Industrial influenced work, which has been identified as Futurist, which also focused on the plight of the working classes during this period. Strasson's political views became more radical as time went on, and he was a member of the Brikksto Socialist Society during his time as a student, however his ideals caused arguments between his fellow Socialist society members and he was kicked out after a confrontation with staunch Marxist member, Kaska Fisha. Strasson went on to become one of the most influential philosophers and political theorists of the 19th and 20th centuries. He served as the first Chancellor of Westland following the establishment of the Strassonist state in 1923, until the end of the transition period by 1924 when he stepped down and Rik Burkӧsson took office. Strasson died in 1926 after committing suicide by gunshot in his home, at the age of 69. Strasson's ideals about society, economics and politics hold that humanity is not, and cannot be responsible for itself without strict governance and checks. He strongly opposed Liberatarianism and the ideology of self-suffiency that was prominent in the United States during the 19th centuries. Strasson believed that a strong government should hold joint responsibility with the public over economic ownership, and that private ownership of business and the economy only led to greed, injustice and inequality. He predicted that, like previous socioeconomic systems, capitalism produced internal tensions which would lead to its self-destruction and replacement by a new system: socialism, and that Capitalism would lead to the failure and destruction of the human race through greed and widespread corporate interests put before the welfare of human beings.
