| Message | Azban is more centrally located and has served as the capital for quite some time. Any governments in exile will not be recognized. Do not complicate things further by throwing in secession attempts. Any such attempts will be taken as acts of treason. |

| Message | The Junta not being the currently LEGALLY elected government or Gaduridos cannot say what will and what won't be recognized as the capital. Clearly a supermajority of the people's elected representatives here believe we should move to the old capital without the Junta acting as a bouncer to anyone it doesn't want in. The government must work whether the Junta approves of those governing or not. |

| Message | The government continues to silence the people's voice by giving carte blanche authority to parties that are friendly to it. The people have elected the Zambrano Junta to be the largest party, yet we are not afforded one cabinet ministry? What kind of Republic is this nation supposed to be? The latest elections are contested as there are some irregularities betwen first and second round voting. In regards to the current status of the ministries and Azban, no curfews or banishments have been handed down. Currently, the Ministries of Foreign Affairs, Internal Affairs, Finance, and Defense are fortified by Junta personnel. Vintalli and Hardline Commissars are warned not to approach these buildings or they will be asked to leave. Noncompliance will result in escort off the premises. In the case of special persons and those of interest, they will be arrested accordingly along with those who resist escort. Ministries that were formerly filled by the Free Movement of Gaduridos have been evacuated with the Ministers escorted to National Command Authority. A move of the capital is a copout situation by the VRP in a ploy to move the capital to a more communist friendly region. To avoid political violence, we urge the other parties to keep the capital in Marligantos where order can be preserved. |

| Message | Although we voted for a proposed cabinet that included Junta members, we do not agree that the fact that a cabinet without Junta members was passed is reason to bring a halt to government services and operation. The Junta is only one of 9 different factions in this nation's highest legislative body and although it has some 114 seats, that is but little more than 1 out of 5. If the VRP and their allies have a vote to pass their proposed cabinet fairly, then so be it, we have the option to go on record against it. However, the nation should not be on the edge of civil war or a government crisis because one faction did not get a cabinet post. |

While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks." - Thomas Jefferson |
