Description[?]:
| After a Referendum on the subject, and since the recent election; the public mood has shifted against the current structure of our head of state and chief government executive. in this bill, we seek to change this arrangement as well as end the power of the nobility within the great country of Cildania, and transform ourselves into a full and free republic. I am taking suggestions for what the new head of state shall be called. |
