Votes: This bill asks for an amendement to the Constitution. It will require two-thirds of the legislature to vote in favor. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Description[?]:
| It has been one of the long term goals of the DSP to create a new term for the regions that make up Sekowo, currently referred to as 'Exarchy's. However because the two parties that have been against changing it have been in power so long, we've not been able to. However now that things have changed we feel it's time to bring up the matter again. |

| Message | We/I suggested state since we're composed of more than just the five regions on the map, and are a Federation. Of course we're willing to consider other options as well. |

| Message | Federal District sounds interesting. I don't like Emirate though, I know enough about the only country that uses that term to not like it, more as a reflection of the country itself. |
