| Message | We have abolished the monarchy, but nobles still wield immense power and influence over this country. Everywhere you go nobles hold government positions at local and national level. If we pursue changes too quickly and dismissing the political realities, at the click of a finger, they can unleash chaos and raise an army so vast that our fledgling democracy will collapse in an instant. In order to curtail their power, we must appease them and slowly remove nobles from positions and replace them with elected officials.It will be hard but achievable. We estimate that 200,000 nobles are working for our government currently. Some important positions, others not. |
