| Message | That is not possible. The Sultan refuses to sign your order and the army's loyalty lies not with the Grand Vizier but with the Sultan. General Sabar Makhdoom |

| Message | Foolish of this party to think that the whole nation will revert back to a Republic just because the ruling party say so! Hah! As long as the Sultan reigns, all bills require the Sultan's signature in order for it to become law. Should a Republic be establish, it requires the Sultan's abdication. Ignorance of the law will soon see your head on a platter! Imam Hammoud Akbhar |

| Message | You cannot execute members of the previous government. They're all from powerful noble houses! Without them, without their financial and military support, this country will plunge back into chaos. Be very careful of what you do, your incompetence in Jakanian history and social structure in this country will be the country's demise. Historian Amhad Mahmoud |
| Date | 19:45:43, June 22, 2014 CET | From | Party of Jakanian Union and Progress | To | Debating the Taking Control |
| Message | The Supreme Court, dominated by the mighty Akmenrah family, sees this as high treason! Luckily, we are kind enough to turn a blind eye to this order. I suggest that you make allies before you make any rash decisions. You are all alone when it comes to changing the social and administrative structure of this country. Supreme Judge Mehmet Akmenrah |
| Date | 14:52:51, June 23, 2014 CET | From | Jakania Solution For All Party | To | Debating the Taking Control |
| Message | As long as this bill passes we have the ability to control citizens of Jakania no matter what their status. And we have the ability to do anything to our citizens no matter what its citizens influence in society. If we like we could murder all Jakania Citizens if we like we could take away the culture if we like we could form a republic government if we like we could form a Dictatorship If we like we could break all foreign powers If we like we could ruin this society into chaos. You can be the Head or the Tail but let me tell you that the Head always win. I am the head of this society and I have the executive orders to do what I want. You follow me or leave this Nation. Steve Law II |

| Message | FOOL! You are only the head of the government but not the state. The head of state is the Sultan, in this country he is above the law and even the Supreme Court of Jakania! Should he find you a threat he can override your decisions and turn you into nothing more than a figurehead! With one decree, a simple decree, he can enact emergency powers if he deems it wise to do so. Nobody respects a figurehead. And in this culture we value figures who possess true power! Supreme Judge Mehmet Akmenrah |
