| Message | "Mr. Speaker, The Conservative Coalition recognizes that, as its Manifesto, we wish to communicate clearly our priorities and goals both to the Mordusian people, to whom this Diet is accountable, and to His Majesty's servants here within this body. We understand that for change to occur within this nation we must work together with our fellow parties. This is a statement of some of our core beliefs. As my party is but a fledgling one, we yield to those more experienced for the time being and have simply put forth a collective of our ideas for the future. With that, Mr. Speaker, I would like to yield." MP Ronaldo Vinecci LXVII, Chairman of the Conservative Coalition |

| Random fact: Particracy does not allow real-life brand names (eg. Coca Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft). However, in the case of military equipment brand names it is permitted to use simple number-letter combinations (eg. T-90 and F-22) borrowed from real life, and also simple generic names, like those of animals (eg. Leopard and Jaguar). |
