Message | I would also like to call upon the CLA to explain their decision on why to disband the Hulstrian National Forest Agency. The current law states that commercial forestry companies (or corporations who have a foresty wing) can easily operate alongside the HNFA. Again I suspect corporate interests. |

Random fact: Particracy allows you to establish an unelected head of state like a monarch or a president-for-life, but doing this is a bit of a process. First elect a candidate with the name "." to the Head of State position. Then change your law on the "Structure of the executive branch" to "The head of state is hereditary and symbolic; the head of government chairs the cabinet" and change the "formal title of the head of state" to how you want the new head of state's title and name to appear (eg. King Percy XVI). |
