| Message | A central government far away should not impose its will on subjugated people. |
| Date | 10:57:17, September 22, 2008 CET | From | Federal Republican Party (UCF) | To | Debating the Decolonization Act |
| Message | These are not subjugated people, this is ridiculous. The vast majority of inhabitants in Dovani want to be part of Mordusia (OOC: It's always been RPed that way). The same central government has no right to exclude some of its inhabitants in such way. |
| Date | 10:58:07, September 22, 2008 CET | From | Federal Republican Party (UCF) | To | Debating the Decolonization Act |
| Message | In addition, the rights of native people were always respected and they have always been treated as equals to ethnic Mordusians. (OOC: see news paper). |

| Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, special care must be taken to ensure realism is maintained when role-playing a government controlled by an ethnic and/or religious minority. If it is to be supposed that this government is supported by a majority of the population, then this should be plausibly and sufficiently role-played. The burden of proof is on the player or players role-playing such a regime to demonstrate that it is being done realistically |
