| Message | Actually, most of the laws that are on the books are the "traditional" laws of Talmoria. Abortion, contraception, euthanasia, organ donations and unregulated recreational drug have all been legal since we've been a party. And as the oldest continuously active party in the country (over 100 years old), we can safely say that this law hopes to start new concepts and traditions, rather than ones traditional to Talmoria. |
