| Message | The TP is in favour of change (definitely not Prefecture and Imperial Diet though). We'd be willing to support the MP's suggestion and we'll wait for other suggestions too and then give the definite yes or no. |

| Message | Provincial Assembly makes us sound like a subregion of another nation, which we are most certainly not. And province is so run-of-the-mill, so typical. Deltaria is not a typical nation. |

| Message | The Communist Party suggests, that if 'region' is an insufficient term, the following terms would be acceptable as replacement: Areas, States, Sections, Counties, Municipalities. Things along those lines. |
