| Message | I agree that the titles need to change. However, I think that we need to do away with the communist state altogether. I envision a democratic, harmonious Empire under the moral guidance of the Archduke. We will remove the state capitalist system and it falsely republican titles. Motto: Peace, Humanity, and Equality (or in Latin: Pax, Humanitas, Aequalitas) HoS: Archduke HoG: Secretary General Legislature: House of Deputies Nation Name: The Empire of Grand Sekowo |
| Date | 06:32:25, April 27, 2007 CET | From | Axis Sekowo Deific Aretist Party | To | Debating the Constitution Amendment Act 2395 |
| Message | I would prefer "First Servant" for the HoG title. While I agree that the HoS should be a moral and symbollic leader of the people, the "First Servant" should be exactly that: a servant of the people empowered to implement their will. "House of Deputies" works along these lines also. |
| Date | 16:13:46, April 27, 2007 CET | From | Liberal Party | To | Debating the Constitution Amendment Act 2395 |
| Message | I do not care about the titles; they are just an idea. I merely want a stronger party system and prevention of HOS intervention. I think empowering community councils will empower the parties and will make the nation stronger. |
