| abstract
| - Regarded as one of Kania's foremost warhawks, Lawson repeatedly used Kania's military forces, especially its navy, to project the tiny nation's power and anti-slavery interested overseas, especially when it come to Southern America. Lawson passed the Law of Gideon in 1859 which permitted the execute the legally sanctioned kidnapping of American slaves and runaways and bring them to Kania where they would be free. Under his administration, a fallout between Kania and Great Britain occurred, and saw the Kanian Crisis reach a fever pitch during the Battle of Port Kane in 1870. Lawson pushed Kania into the American Civil War with the aim of freeing tens of thousands of slaves, many of whom moved to the island nation immediately after their rescue. Lawson's military ventures were exceeded by his political gambles, many of which succeeded in gaining a newfound respect of the tiny nation by European colonial powers. He secured the French agreement to drop their claims to the nation's resources, and saw the Germans agree to pass on their advanced military technologies to the country following the Franco-Prussian War, increasing Kanian military power in the region. For all of his failings and aggressive actions, Lawson has seen been hailed as a national hero who always acted in the best interests of his nation in the long run, though many may not have seen it as such at the time. Following his leave of office in 1876, Lawson left with an 88% approval rating, and the admiration of Kanian politicians at the time and those to come. Considered the Abraham Lincoln of his nation,Lawson kept the nation together during tough and trying times, and never forgot to whom he ultimately answered when it came to his dealings.
