Theodore became Director-General after his father suffered a fatal stroke in [[2461]].  Years of his father's reign had strained the relation between the people and the Directorship.  The people fervently hoped that Theodore would be a better leader than his late father; however, the people did not show much faith in Theodore to be the new Director-General, for when the time came to vote, only twenty-five percent of the population voted to have Theodore installed.

Their worries would prove correct.  Though he was strong and decisive on the affairs of the military,  Theodore was indecisive and ineffective when making decisions regarding civilian related issues such as restructuring taxes.  His inability to help the people helped fuel the population's anger at the runaway inflation and the shortage of basic goods caused by the late [[Jacob Cameron]].  Theodore would continue his father's military buildup plan and ignore the needs of the public.  He also spent large sums of money on himself, buying and building extravagant palaces on [[Terra]], such as restoring the [[w:Palace_of_Versailles|Palace of Versailles]] and constructing new ones including the Castle-by-the-Columbia, the Chicago Palaces, and built many more on other planets nearby<ref name=SLSB-30DC/>
