Description[?]:
| M. Speaker, The current national motto is threatening to both the international community and our own citizens. I believe we should change the motto to a more optimistic one that brings people together, not dividing them out of fear and intimidation. This can be used as a forum to discuss possible alternatives. My personal suggestions are; - Live for Lodamun! - For Freedom! - Lodamun for All Please feel free to provide your own suggestions if these do not resonate with you. I hope we can come to a consensus, as this is a change that must be made. Donna Mendoza Prime Minister |

| Message | OOC: I don't really love ECA suggestions because they're generic like many particracy mottos. After playing around in google translate to come up with something that sounds somewhat ok, I came up with: Semper flores florent (translated: Always flowers in bloom) I think Latin makes it sound like a real motto. Since the flag is a flower, it makes sense and reinforces that national symbol. It advances the idea that Lodamun is a vibrant nation that continuously thrives. Thoughts? |
