He previously served as the Senator from the Schevakian state of Melaconia and as the second President of [[Schevakia]].

Mr_Waffles17 first migrated to the land now know as Schevakia in early November 2019 as one of the four founding Schevakians, along with [[catcherzw]], thepolg, and The_Brunt. He built his home in the northeast quarter of Schenektengrad, soon to be known as Ward 4, built by Waffles in its entirety. Waffles had no formal education and spent most of his early life digging out and lurking in the undercity of Ward 4, while also cultivating a small carrot patch that provided the food supply of all of Schevakia for most of its history. Despite this vital contribution to the Schevakian economy, Waffles remained the poorest Schevakian while Ward 4 lagged behind the rest of the capital in development and quality of life, and became widely regarded as the slums of Schenektengrad.

On April 24th, following the further splintering of Schevakia into the nations of Satama and Ambrosia, the newly formed Balkan Federation claimed the Schevakian province of Ilyrdom, erroneously believing it to be entirely unclaimed following the restructuring of Ambrosia to its core territory. Mr_Waffles17 informed the Federation that he had a preexisting claims to the province, as the PRS held that all Schevakian territory was theirs. Waffles issued an ultimatum to the Federation to retract their claims, which was ignored for 48 hours. In response to the Federation's recalcitrance, the PRS issued a declaration of war on April 27th. Military support for the PRS campaign to retake Ilyrdom was rapidly announced by the Schevakian splinter states of Jacksonia and CSA, who expressed their disdain for the PRS itself but declared they would rather the land stay in Schevakian hands than be annexed by a foreign power. Soon after, Ozai and Sylvia announced they too would be backing the PRS claims to Ilyrdom with military and material support. The Balkan Federation backed down from its claims, and it was believed by both Federation and PRS leadership that a peace deal had been reached that night.

However, in the wee hours of April 27th/28th, Federation forces sacked the former Schevakian capital of Schenektengrad, causing massive damage in all five wards and detonating the Senate Building in an act of outrage at "the world turning against them". Waffles' homeland of Ward 4 was hit among the hardest in this attack, with the impoverished residents of the undercity reporting the highest casualties. The PRS joined a massive international coalition in declaring war on the Balkan Federation and annihilating much of it in retaliation for the sack of Schenektengrad, althoughand Waffles himself was absentpresent fromat the militarySataman campaignand Ravna Goran fronts of the war.

The Great Balkan War marked the beginning of a period of hardship for the PRS, which it has beenproved unable to fully recover from. Having lost virtually all of their resources in the Sack of Schenektengrad, much of PRS-controlled territory lieslay in ruins, whichwith the demoralized populace unable and unwilling to rebuild. The post-war era saw other Schevakian splinter states encroaching on PRS claims in Schenektengrad, as Waffles lost control over downtown Schenektengrad to Jacksonia, much of Ward 4 to the CSA, and even his own home to Ambrosia.
