| Message | When in times of war, I am sure our people will join our ranks. Conscription only serves to anger the public unnecessarily. -Louis Legrand Founder and leader of le Parti Libéral |

| Message | It is every man's duty to serve his country. I know the Parti Libéral hates Rildanor, and wants its culture to die, but this is further proof. Anastacie Soyer Deputy Leader of the Parti de l'Impératrice Noire Assembly Member from Niraldonne |

| Message | I do not think it is every man's duty to die for his country. We maintain a strong enough army anyhow. There are plenty of people willing to serve without forcing them to. Not to mention those who are forced generally perform less well than those who don't. In addition, in a democracy that promotes freedom and the right of the individual over the state (obviously different from your understanding of the matter, Soyer), who are we to dismiss the people's morals and to decide their duty? Dany Leclére Le Parti Libéral member Candidate for Defence |

| Message | If someone's morals dictated that they were fine with sexually assaulting someone and did so, would it not be right for the government to stop them from doing that? The government's job is to stop people from doing what is wrong. Anastacie Soyer Deputy Leader of the Parti de l'Impératrice Noire Assembly Member from Niraldonne |

| Random fact: Did you know you can change the official name of your nation? All you need to do is draw up a new name that is in accordance with the Nation Renaming Guide, pass a bill proposing the name change with a two-thirds majority and then post a request to Moderation on the "Renaming Requests" thread. You can change city and region names in this way too. |
