Message | Senators, Current law grants automatic citizenship to all polytheists fleeing persecution in other nations if they are fluent in Selucian. We agree with a modification on the overall immigration policy towards individual quotas, provided the provisions of the Pagan Immigration Act remains in place. We also agree that preferential treatment should be given to women from oppressive societies, and we should note that no societies are as misogynistic and patriarchal than those under monotheistic rule. Livianus Valentinus Senator |

Message | Senators, Can anyone explain us how this will stop the flow of foreigners brought upon us by the Dictatrix? Whatever degree or qualification the foreigner has, he still is a foreigner and I reckon we got quite enough of those already! Agrippa Marcius Dives Factionis Dux of the Acies Nationalis |

Message | Senators, Selucianitas has always been more a matter of culture, language, and religion rather than ethnicity and purity of blood. If the new immigrants integrate into Selucian society, they are as Selucian as any of us. Balbina Iuliana, Ministra of Foreign Affairs |
