==Early life==

Walter was born to mother Vanessa Hougstan and father Walter James Johannes. He lived and grew up in a middle class family in Monneharrigon. At around 8 he was in the Boy Scouts MBE. His parents moved to Firen, a town near Redrugus when he was 13 years old and Johannes transferred secondary schools from Dorhan Secondary School to Mottington Secondary School. Between the ages of 14 and 17 he took up gliding as a hobby and subsequently gained a flying license. Unlike many of his friends, Johannes chose not to take a gap year between secondary school and university, and began studying politics and international relations at Monneharo Bridge University.

In 1992, Johannes resumed his university studies at Monneharo Bridge University. He graduated in 1996 with a Masters in politics and international relations. He moved into a one bedroom apartment in his home city of Monneharrigon and established a successful financial holdings company. Already a member of the [[MBE Conservatives|Conservative Party]], he was appointed as a junior specialist advisor to the Secretary of State for the Home Department Verhmar Feligon. In 1997 he became a specialist advisor to Prime Minister [[Ramsay Logrin]]. In the run up to the [[1998 Great Morstaybishlia General Election|1998 general election]], Johannes indicated he was running for the new Monneharrigon constituency and Ramsay Logrin commended him as "always modest, whom brings with him a coruscating sense of style and understanding". Johannes was elected to the House of Representatives.

 

 

Johannes declared war on the [[Ethalria (Matriarchy)|Matriarchy of Ethalria]] on 31 May 2017 for the assassination of [[Prince Thadeus, Duke of Horkalo|Prince Thadeus]]. His opinion polls were the highest in his time in office at this time, and Johannes successfully ended the fascist reign of [[Amalda Harimann]], though he had faced backlash from political opponents such as Leader of the Opposition [[Franklin Barvata]] for his "use of soldiers like cannon fodder" and for destabilising the [[Ethalns]]. Though the war was successful, its rapid mobilisation and state of total war had left the economy in recession. Following the war, Johannes released the Five Year Post-War Plans and had promised the nation an era of internal development. A year later, [[Rodenia]] fell into civil war and Johannes broke several promises in the plans by getting involved, supporting the right-wing [[Kirk Santon]] over the socialist and communist revolutionaries. Johannes successfully ended the war and Santon was appointed as Protector of the Realm. Johannes supported Santon through establishing a provisional government. At the same time, Johannes campaigned across the MBE for the [[2019 Great Morstaybishlia General Election|2019 General Election]] to be elected for an unheard of third term, though with a dampened opinion poll and his political opponent Barvata faring better in the polls, The Conservatives eventually lost the election by 250 seats. Johannes stated that it was "A dream of mine to become the first Prime Minister elected for a third term; and had that been successful the first person to serve the office for potentially 21 years".
