| Message | OOC: If the new nation name won't be "Federal Republic of Hutori", but just "Republic or Grand Republic of Hutori" than the name of regions be Province after my opinion otherwise State - if it is a federal republic, which I support the most. And the legislative assembly should be named Congress if Hutori is a federal republic otherwise it should be named Parliament. And no matter what the head of state should be named Presiden. |

| Message | OOC: The problem with just Congress is that in most newspapers it would say "the Congress" which to me kind of sounds weird so that is why I went with National Congress because I believe it sounds better. |
| Date | 00:23:31, October 01, 2014 CET | From | Radical Alliance | To | Debating the Naming Convention Act |
| Message | OOC: Yeah, that would work fine too, but "Federal Congress" could also be a good alternative. |

| Date | 03:33:18, October 01, 2014 CET | From | Democratic Socialist Party | To | Debating the Naming Convention Act |
| Message | OOC: Could the terms "Premier" and "Secretary General" be added as an option for the title of Head of State? |
| Date | 04:12:27, October 01, 2014 CET | From | Federal Heritage Party of Hutori | To | Debating the Naming Convention Act |
| Message | OOC: Yep I"ll add it. |
| Date | 04:36:15, October 01, 2014 CET | From | Democratic Socialist Party | To | Debating the Naming Convention Act |
| Message | OOC: Is it possible that we could assign new names to different cabinet ministries? And possibly keep track of "child agencies" established under those ministries? |
| Date | 05:06:00, October 01, 2014 CET | From | Federal Heritage Party of Hutori | To | Debating the Naming Convention Act |
| Message | OCC: Like instead of calling them ministries call the departments? Or did you mean something else? |
| Date | 13:14:35, October 01, 2014 CET | From | Democratic Socialist Party | To | Debating the Naming Convention Act |
| Message | OOC: Exactly. Like calling them Departments or Commissions. |
| Date | 17:03:26, October 01, 2014 CET | From | Federal Heritage Party of Hutori | To | Debating the Naming Convention Act |
| Message | OCC: Well we can do that but I don't think there is a value you can edit for that it would be strictly for RP. |
| Date | 18:39:07, October 01, 2014 CET | From | United Vorona | To | Debating the Naming Convention Act |
| Message | OOC: We are currently in the process of transforming Vorona into a Federal Republic and have opted for the Federal Assembly of Vorona. However the problem, we have found is that there are two legislative bodies in most councils, as in Russia where you have the State Duma and then upper house, Federation Council. |

| Message | It could be called Federal Assembly... I just think the word federal should be a part of the name since our nation is a federal republic just like Germany and their legislative assembly is called Bundestag like the parliament of all the states. |
