| Message | One thing about the old-old way things were here were the constant elections. They never got anything done anyway, so all it did was shift a few seats around. Longer term lengths are to the advantage of zero parties, they get more time to get established. 4 years is just fine, and besides, 36 months would give us inconsistant election months again. |

| Random fact: When it comes to creating a Cultural Protocol in a Culturally Open nation, players are not necessarily required to provide a plausible backstory for how the nation's cultural background developed. However, the provision of a plausible backstory may be a factor in whether Moderation approves the Cultural Protocol if players in surrounding nations question its appropriateness for their region of the game map. |
