| Message | Renaming the Republic of Gishoto to Hulstrian Union. He said it sounds a little clunky so I asked if he had other ideas for the name. |
| Date | 13:36:56, February 22, 2008 CET | From | People's Radical Party | To | Debating the The Hulstrian Union |
| Message | I'd prefer something like "The X of Hulstria" (although what value X should have, I haven't a clue). If we want "The Hulstrian X", then "union" sounds more like it's a service organisation than a country. Again, not a clue what should replace the X there. So I'm afraid I can't be overly constructive, but I'll defer to the older-established parties here, since they've presumably got more invested in the entire exercise. (And sorry I was slow in responding. I'd forgotten I'd posted in the first place) |

| Message | I find the Hulstrian Union is less of a mouthful then The Union of Hulstria. And is also a misrepresentation. Gishoto is a Union led by Hulstria, not a Union of and area called Hulstria. |

| Message | What's wrong with the Republic of Gishoto. |
| Date | 00:06:51, February 23, 2008 CET | From | Republican Coalition | To | Debating the The Hulstrian Union |
| Message | It's the wrong name. It's a name created by the CCP during it's time as a Gishotoi nationalist party, rising one people above the true identity of the state. Hulstria is the true name of the state. |
| Date | 00:08:00, February 23, 2008 CET | From | Republican Coalition | To | Debating the The Hulstrian Union |
| Message | We are a union of two peoples under Hulstria. Not a nation of cultures dominated by one. |
| Date | 12:46:39, February 23, 2008 CET | From | Christian Communist Party | To | Debating the The Hulstrian Union |
| Message | The CCP has never been a Gao-Showa nationalist party. Furthermore we are two people united under Gishoto not two peoples oppressed under the nation of Hulstria. |
| Date | 02:23:03, February 24, 2008 CET | From | Kaiserliche Hulsterreichische Partei | To | Debating the The Hulstrian Union |
| Message | Obviously this should go without saying but this bill will fail as the Communist Block as a 1/3 minority. |
