Jeremiah A. Garland

Sir Jeremiah Nathaniel Bartholomew Garland II, MBE, is a High-Lord of the EITC. He is a member of the EITC Council of the Elders and is currently forth-in-command of the EITC. He is also currently the founder and guildmaster of a new (yet rising) guild called the Royal Union, which he formed along side his father, Joshua "Captain Josh" Pond. He also owns the Black Resistance (EITC guild he created), and the Co. Empire (EITC guild put in charge of him by Benjamin Macmorgan). Garland is also the founding member of the Great Order of the Sovereign, which is now deceased.

Currently
On August 8, 1744, Garland returned to the EITC from retirement. Because of Captain Leon's exile from the EITC, he was made forth-in-command of the EITC, as well as an Elder of the EITC.

Position
Garland is a member of the EITC Council of Elders, the most prestigious group of EITC leaders and founders. He was one of the founding members of the EITC Council, as he was a member of the very first EITC guild (on his old pirate). Recently, he has returned to the EITC and assumed the position as forth-in-command of the EITC. He is currently an officer of the Co. Black Guard.

In addition, Garland is also the chairman of the British Singapore Embassy, and is governor of the city-state Singapore itself. Garland is also King of Siam, which isn't British.

During his time in the Co. Empire, Garland served as prime minister, or second in command right behind Macmorgan. He also served as guildmaster of the same guild during Macmorgan's absense.

The Garland Doctrine
As a lord of the EITC, Garland has made a doctrine of proposals to deliver to the people of the EITC. The doctrine contains many points, all of which cause something beneficial to the people of the EITC. I plan to make a seperate page explaining each point of the doctrine sometime in the near future.

Quotes
"The key to a healthy government is unity. The key to unity is government."

"People often look at the EITC as a power-hungry empire. I look at them as a peace-bringing redemption."

"Live by your own rules and do not let others tell you how to live your life. If one says 'stay', you go to wherever your heart takes you."

"I've never seen a stronger EITC officer than Benjamin Macmorgan. He runs a guild with righteousness and understanding for his guild. Rather than power, his main goal is principle."

"The deepest parts of Davy Jones's Locker are reserved for, not pirates, but rather a pirate-turned EITC official."

"Anyone not in the EITC has truly corrupted themselves."

"I don't believe in guilds; but rather government."

"Pirates are filthy, barbaric scum-of-the-sea. The EITC are organized, and rule with an iron-fist."

"When I joined the EITC, someone didn't come up to me and ask me to join, I decided to join all by myself. That's true loyalty."

"Love is where your heart is at. My heart is in the EITC."
