Ethan Du is the 1st Supreme Admiral of the United States of JBR, which is the highest rank in the JBR Naval Forces. Before taking office as Supreme Admiral, Du served as a lieutenant for the Victorian Republic Navy and prior to that, he was a baseball player. He is known for his shortness, standing at only 5'2 and nicknamed "Mini Monster" during his baseball career and later on, "Little Sam" as a parody of Uncle Sam. As Supreme Admiral, Du is in charge of the naval branch of the military of the United States of JBR and supervises its actions along with carrying out initiatives from the Supreme Field Marshal. A member of the Worker's Advancement Party, he rarely uses his political power in the government and is mainly concerned of the well-being of the Navy. Du is of mixed descent (Vietnamese and Chinese), and is practices both Christianity and Buddhism although most of the society refer him as a "Cultural Christian-Buddhist" because of the lack of his interest in religion. He is not open on the whereabouts of his view on religion however, so he is not been confirmed as a secular humanist. When he was lieutenant of the Victorian Republic Navy, he helped lead two successful battles during the Inland War in the middle of the reservoir he lived nearby, Lake Mathews. There, he sunk 15 invading ships total and captured 3 captains alive who were wanted by the Victorian Grove government. After the unity of the city-states for the United States of JBR, Du was made Supreme Admiral by his old friend, Justin Vuong--the current and first President of the country. More about Ethan Du...
