Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The lyrics of the national anthem.
Old value:: Nie rzucim ziemi, skąd nasz ród. Nie damy pogrześć mowy. Walruzyjski my naród, Walruzyjski lud, Strzep krwi Trigunskiej Nie damy, by nas zliktonizował wróg. Tak nam dopomóż Bóg! Tak nam dopomóż Bóg! Do krwi ostatniej kropli z żył Bronić będziemy Ducha, Aż się rozpadnie w proch i w pył Liktoniska zawierucha. Twierdzą nam będzie każdy próg. Tak nam dopomóż Bóg! Tak nam dopomóż Bóg! Marszujcie o nasi żołnierze, Bron cie naszego kraju. Bo my Walruzja, bo my ludzie, Marsz, marsz nasi stczelcy, Nie damy, by nas zliktonizował wróg. Tak nam dopomóż Bóg! Tak nam dopomóż Bóg! Nie damy miana Walruzy zgnieść Nie pójdziem żywo w trumnę. Na Walruzy imię, na jej cześć Podnosim czoła dumne, Odzyska ziemię dziadów wnuk. Tak nam dopomóż Bóg! Tak nam dopomóż Bóg!

| Date | 22:26:29, July 16, 2012 CET | From |  Szlachta Walruzyjska | To | Debating the Government Act |
| Message | Absolutely not. The culture of this nation is established via the culture protocols. You can't get rid of the language simply just like that. There are rules, and everyone must follow them. |
| Date | 00:48:07, July 17, 2012 CET | From | Valruzian Renewal | To | Debating the Government Act |
| Message | The culture of this nation is established via the parliamentary protocols. Not everyone speaks or understands Polish, so we need to use a common language - as English is. |
| Date | 01:35:33, July 17, 2012 CET | From | Szlachta Walruzyjska | To | Debating the Government Act |
| Message | This is why we have things in two languages, as to encourage bilinguality. Hence, the common language is established; you're just removing one that has been the foundation of this nation for centuries. |
| Date | 13:40:58, July 17, 2012 CET | From | Socialist Party of Valruzia | To | Debating the Government Act |
| Message | We have to cooperate in the same language of people of the world, long live the Socialist International! |
| Date | 17:55:26, July 17, 2012 CET | From | Szlachta Walruzyjska | To | Debating the Government Act |
| Message | Why the fuck do we have things in Latin? |
| Date | 18:03:28, July 17, 2012 CET | From | Valruzian Green Party | To | Debating the Government Act |
| Message | Latin has been, and still is somehow, the world's first common language. So, a motto in Latin is fully acceptable. |
| Date | 19:57:17, July 17, 2012 CET | From | Szlachta Walruzyjska | To | Debating the Government Act |
| Message | Unacceptable. |
