| Message | I doubt the motto had much to do with it. Probably more to do with the fact that America started as the world's richest nation, and the USSR started as a backwards society which had just been through multiple revolutions. Frankly, the fact that the USSR lasted as long as it did is a testament to how awesome Russia is. |

| Message | Ultimately, The Russians lost because Communism ultimatly failed, when people have no hope, youll get scenes like you did in Eastern Europe in the 1980s as for the motto, if we must choose between those 2, it doesnt make a difference to me |

| Message | Well, since the second motto sounds more Russian, the CfP shall vote against it. |

| Random fact: It is not allowed to call more than 5 elections in 5 game years in a nation. The default sanction for a player persisting in the early election tactic will be a seat reset. |
