| Message | The Liberal Democratic Party wishes to name the country something different. Many nations that once held an original name have casted it away and have renamed the country something more modern. |
| Date | 15:50:48, February 03, 2007 CET | From | United Democrats of Jakania | To | Debating the Jakanian Identity Bill |
| Message | We, of course agree with all our heart |
| Date | 22:55:41, February 03, 2007 CET | From | Jakanian Liberal Socialists | To | Debating the Jakanian Identity Bill |
| Message | We respect the LDP's position, but after over a century of authoritarian rule, we feel it is important that the nation recognise its history of democratic representation, and use that as a source of inspiration as we procede through this period of change. We should be proud of our nation, and that's a pride our people haven't been allowed to express for anywhere other than the leaders of Deltaria to the north in many years. |

| Message | I'm also going to consider adding the flag ammendment to this bill, so i would like some feedback on that. I present here some choices; one by me, one by IdioC, and three by Sadwillow. The only things I asked for were some form of allusion to the five regions of Jakania, and something that matched the assigned nation colour. Which is, sadly, pink. But hey. I've listed them in order of my own preferences. The stars and tricolour flag was the historical one that the country held for 200 years, so as a patriotic party I think i'll be supporting that one quite a bit. But it is very... pink. Sadwillow's Five Pink Stars version I thought was nice. Very simple. What do you all think of these? Which are your favourites? --- Five Pink Stars: http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/8141/jakaniaflagaltsx8.png Five Starred Tricolour: http://img448.imageshack.us/img448/6633/jakaniaflag6xi.png Five Yellow Stars: http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/5953/jakaniaflagjb6.png Five Yellow Stars and Flag: http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/2369/jakaniabigjoj6.png Star and Five Stripes: http://www.idioc.co.uk/jakania.png |

| Message | I'm drawn between Five Yellow Stars and Flag or Star and Five Stripes |
| Date | 16:59:08, February 04, 2007 CET | From | Liberal Democratic Party | To | Debating the Jakanian Identity Bill |
| Message | The L.D.P. favors the Five Yellow Stars flag and the runner up would be the Five Pink Stars flag. |
| Date | 17:25:21, February 05, 2007 CET | From | Liberal Democratic Party | To | Debating the Jakanian Identity Bill |
| Message | While the L.D.P. respects the J.L.S., we will not agree to Jakania on the current terms. Instead, we have proposed a new country name in a different sect of debate in the legislative body. |
| Date | 21:36:50, February 08, 2007 CET | From | United Democrats of Jakania | To | Debating the Jakanian Identity Bill |
| Message | well, the one that you chose isnt the one that I like the most, but I like it more then our current one, I accept |
