| Message | "Mr Speaker, The Liberty Dawn supports an autonomous warrior chaste consisting of militias, mercenaries and the like that takes care of its own matters, just like in any other profession. Because of this, I for one would rather outsource the armed forces to private dealers more or less entirely. In this, I hope to gain support from the libertarians.

| Random fact: In order for a Cabinet bill to pass, more than half of the legislature must vote for it and all of the parties included in the proposed Cabinet must support it. If your nation has a Head of State who is also the Head of Government, then the party controlling this character must also vote for the bill, since the Head of Government is also a member of the Cabinet. If any of these requirements are not met, the bill will not pass. |
