Description[?]:
| 'Ever Upward' is what our thoughts and actions are, have been and must continue to be. Our strengths lie in our unity in multiculturalism, progressive rationale and a thirst for betterment. Thus, to take a lesson from history: the truth about the old 'through cooperation, we prosper' thought put forward by propagandists of one person rule; whereby they ensured that those who do not cooperate with the 'ruler'/'so-called leader' will be put to lifelong torture, and those who subject themselves to such forced cooperation will be allowed to prosper, which again, never happened. They were too smart to ensure that every thing, even the national motto, was in their reach of affairs and could be twisted to use as and however wished! Well, we must throw away the wastes of the horrific past, and learning from them, let us move forward. Ever Upward,or 'Excelsior' in Latin (to ensure no language in our multilingual society is specifically favored, latin being the root language for most languages here), aptly shows our will to move forward towards long lasting peace and prosperity, while also assuring that it denotes all our people, the country of Beluzia, and not one person's or group's fancies for power. Another great leap to reaffirm our democratic, republican structure. |
