| Message | Article 5 The country's name will be changed back to the United Republics of Lodamun as it has been for a long time --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OOC: In our roleplay,the real life counterpart of Lodamun is the United States,others countries want to copy us but they fail, because they are unable to get together, we have a strong military and a strong moderate conservative base as the U.S, let us keep it that way. Of couse i dont mind left-wing,liberatarians,authoritarians who will try to power grab,that is exactly what i want...competion, and thats exactly why i want to form an alliance between the other two nationalist parties. Thats why i urge the Communist Party and Heretic Party to support this bill.This bill has nothing to do with ideology, but of tradition that had endure for almost 2 yrs. Please tell me what you think,thats why i am not going to put this into vote until i get your point of view. |

| Message | Ill vote for this. |

| Message | The Nationalist Party changed the titles of the "republics" to "states" due to the fact that each separate one is no longer a separate republic but rather a state of Lodamun. We then gave increased power to the new "states" to compensate for there loss of status. The Nationalist party can never vote for a bill that would replace the current national flag (which is our party flag) with another one, it simply means to much to us. The limiting of proposals, we can support - but not in conjunction with the other proposals. We can see that you have good intentions with this bill, but in the interests of roleplaying, we must vote no. |

| Message | We understand, the Lodamun Conservative Coalition actually does want an increase in power for the federal government,you can tell by our voting record. The Lodamun Conservative Coalition also supports the unification of the country like the Nationalist Party.We would rather just call our regions Republics then States, Even though the power of the region is minimal when compare to the last two centuries. We rather call our regions and the name of our country (Republic) than (States) because for unique purposes. Their are many countries that call their regions (States) and if i am correct, another country that has its name as (United States ____) After all the Republics our United. |
| Date | 03:01:23, May 22, 2011 CET | From | Heretic Party | To | Debating the Back to the true Lodamun |
| Message | The Heretic party supports this amendment....on a couple conditions, 1. Legalization of Alcohol 2. Legalization of Cannabis 3. Maby in the near future come to an agreement about woman in the military.(I am a man but feel women can do things just as well as men can. It worked well for the Soviets during the 2nd world war.) If we can come to a deal on these small issues then my vote will be in favor of this amendment. |
| Date | 08:43:22, May 22, 2011 CET | From | Lodamun Conservative Coalition | To | Debating the Back to the true Lodamun |
| Message | Mr.Speaker If the Heretic Party supports this amendment, The Lodamun Conservative Coalition will be willing to legalize alcohol and cannabis for adults and patients,although with certain regulations, in the near future. The Lodamun Conservative Coalition will also give the rights for women to serve along side men in any military position. Will the Heretic Party be willing to meet halfways? I yield |
| Date | 21:41:56, May 22, 2011 CET | From | Heretic Party | To | Debating the Back to the true Lodamun |
| Message | I am happy we can come to an arrangement. The Heretic Party supports the amendment. |
