Biography
Government under System pressure
Alan Howard first enters through a phone call with Hank, already positioned at the center of the old government's attempt to survive the System. As president, he meets figures such as Father Foster and navigates settlements that possess more direct military power than the state. His family connection to Hank and the recurring demands of national coordination make him a bridge between pre-System institutions and the decentralized order shaped by Donnyton, Franksburg, and Kharon. (Chapters 489, 516, 1363)
