| Message | "The Tory Party believes that local police forces have a stronger community bond that a fully-national service. We especially find that withdrawing local police, who are already locally-funded does not effect an already existing national service and thus view this as needless and fairly harmful." Sen. George Myner, Tory Internal Affairs Spokesman. |

| Message | The police completely nationalized? This seems both an inefficient and inappropriate manner to ensure security and domestic peace for citizens. Local communities must decide for themselves how their police force should function and how it should be funded, not a blanket one size fits all approach. Not to mention this is opposed the Minister of Internal Affairs, Will Mason. Senator Geoffrey Daesan |

| 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. |
