Bill: Establishment of the Church of Aldegar Act (2nd attempt)
Details
Submitted by[?]: Ducal Delegation
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: December 2122
Description[?]:
| His Grace believes we need to re-establish the Church of Aldegar. If we want happy and docile peasants, we need to give them a little religion. The social order has been undermined a great deal over recent decades, and bringing the old Church back would be a step in the right direction. Establishing this new Church would also provide employment opportunities for some of the Grand Duke's poorer and more distant relations. Percy Waterman (Personal Secretary to the Grand Duke of Hikirena) |
