| Message | The Selucian Empire is one of the strongest powers in the region. Having them on your side can only deter aggressors. We should not limit our intelligence services. If we know of an iminent attack from a foreign power, our intelligence agency should do all it can to disrupt their plans. |

| Random quote: "In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a cheque. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." - Martin Luther King Jr. |
