| Message | This policy doesn't fit our overgrown bureaucracy, regulation has flaws , but it was worth mentioning, as there is a place for MONARCH in our country according to the Supreme Law, (Article 1., 2b.) Quote:'(2b) The Republic of Kirlawa shall be structured as a parliamentary democracy under a constitutional monarch with a unicameral legislature.' |
