| Date | 02:02:34, February 22, 2009 CET | From | The Centrist Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2715 |
| Message | The Centralist party believes in moderation and calls for a unity cabinet where all parties with seats have at least one position in the cabinet, and frowns on the hording of power in one or two parties alone. |
| Date | 02:16:41, February 22, 2009 CET | From | Aldurian Green Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2715 |
| Message | After closer review we are willing to participate in a cabinet that includes the centrists. The other parties, having pledged support for the imperial occupation are unfit to be in cabinet. |

| Message | (OOC: Pretty much any other party here is ideologically incompatible with mine, and my party members would have trouble justifying entry into a government implicitly or explicitly endorsed by the Emperor or his institutions. I wasn't anticipating being in a position to decide the government, so I'm going to have to think on this.) |

| Random fact: When it comes to creating a Cultural Protocol in a Culturally Open nation, players are not necessarily required to provide a plausible backstory for how the nation's cultural background developed. However, the provision of a plausible backstory may be a factor in whether Moderation approves the Cultural Protocol if players in surrounding nations question its appropriateness for their region of the game map. |
