Bill: Changes To The Nation
Details
Submitted by[?]: DOLGARIA NATIONAL PARTY {DNP}
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill asks for an amendement to the Constitution. It will require two-thirds of the legislature to vote in favor. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: February 3822
Description[?]:
| Time for more change to the country. We propose changes to the national motto, the title of regions and changing the national sport, as "E-Sports" is not a real sport. As for the national animal, we decided it would be best just to have "toucan" instead, especially since currently it's "Dolgavan Toucan", and Dolgava no longer exists. |

| Message | Eh, State sounds too common and generic, I prefer county personally. And "To be, Or Not to be" doesn't really mean anything on a national level, it just implies indecisiveness, something which we do not want. |

| Message | "Dolgava" refers to the region that Dolgaria currently occupies, just as the main Dolgarian ethnic group remains "Dolgavan." The Dolgavan Toucan's name has remained reflecting this as such. "Province" and "County" tend to have far different meanings. We're wondering about the rationale behind this change. |

| Message | Ah, we see now. We still think just leaving it at Toucan would be preferable though. Well we feel that five regions is not really enough to be classified as states, and we felt county offers a more unified term as opposed to province. |
