| Message | Hmmm. On the one hand, we are big fans of tradition. On the other hand, we are big fans of Latin and Roman things and, y'know, Wantuni. A difficult choice. |

| Message | And the old motto isn't a decade old; it is in fact 332 years old. It was instated at the very dawning of Jakania, after we overthrew the Islamic theocracy. |

| Message | Plus "Fortiter, Fideliter, Feliciter" turns up 396 Google results; "Together, All is Accomplished" turns up 4, of which 3 refer to Jakania and a 4th is just a sentence, not a motto. We're going to go with the one that is both traditional and unique to Jakania. |

| Message | I might be able to support a change to "Simul, Omnia Efficere Est (Together, All Is Accomplished)", if anyone can confirm whether that's correct. I just translated it myself, but I've only had one semester of Latin, so it could be horridly awful grammar. |
