I think it is time for me to do this.

Age: 21 since this year.
Gender: Male.
Ethnic background: White and French since countless generations. I have a darker skin though, and I often get mistaken for a Spaniard or an Italian.
Height: 1,63 m, or 5'3".
Weight: Around 55 kg, or 120 lbs.
Location: Currently Munich, Germany, as an exchange student for two semesters.
Place of Birth: Bordeaux, France.
Home: I grew up in a small town in rural western France, in the Vienne département to be precise.
Occupation: Student. I'm about to be start my Master's degree in History.
Political orientation: French Republican, Socialist.
Favorite politicians: Léon Blum, Jean Jaurès, August Bebel, Jeremy Corbyn, Arnaud Montebourg, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, Bernie Sanders, Sherrod Brown, Al Franken, Jeff Merkley, Robert Reich, Patrice Prat (Excluding American Presidents, who gets their own question):
Favorite Presidents: Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry S. Truman.
Worst Presidents: Andrew Johnson, Ronald Reagan, Woodrow Wilson.
Favorite authors: Thomas Frank, H. P. Lovecraft, and a lot of Historians: Johann Chapoutot, Christian Ingrao, Timothy Snyder, Christopher Browning, Ian Kershaw, Adam Tooze, Régis Boyer...
Other persons I love but that don't fit anywhere else: Chelsea Manning, Edward Snowden, Nate Silver, Jackson Crawford, Alexandre Astier...
Favorite Video Games: Europa Universalis IV, Crusader Kings II, Stellaris, Victoria II, Civilization V, Medieval II: Total War, Total War: Shogun 2, Warcraft III, Diablo III, Skyrim, Age of Empires II, Anno 2070, Mount&Blade: Napoleonic Wars... I also used to play the sh*t out of World of Warcraft around WotLK/Cataclysm but, thank god, I stopped since then.
Favorite bands/music: I listen to a lot of varied music, but I will remain first a huge Metal fan. The trifecta remains Blind Guardian/Sabaton/Rammstein, but I don't forget Rhapsody of Fire, and I somehow like both Wardruna and the weird french hip-hop band Stupeflip.
Siblings: A little sister, who isn't so little anymore.
Relationship status: I actually dated a girl once. She was also a political nerd, but more interested in the UK.
What year did you join?: 2016, shortly after the election.


Edit: With this list, I realize I am a) a major nerd b) a walking left-wing stereotype (muh FDR...).
