Message | Assembly Members, The people do not want a return to a monarch nor an attempt to revive the ancient Augustan Empire. This attempt at empire building will bring us into direct conflict with our neighbours and will end in disaster. Olimpio Gracchus NSPZ Leader |

Message | Ladies and Gentlemen of this great Assembly, Zardugal has for a long time been under the rule of a supposed 'monarch'; the dual reign of the houses of Volkov and Banmek-sntazed. While our beloved Emperor Calixtus never claimed the title of Emperor of the Augustans, this great house of pretenders has long laid claim to it. Their current claimant even now lays claim to the title of 'His August Majesty'. The Empress and her ancestor have never done this; the titles which she lays claim to are purely nationalistic, and have no bearing on past empires of old. The title of 'King of the Augustans' for instance, was merely a reference to the fact that, as Zardugal contained a majority of the Augustan population within Terra, he was in fact the King of the Augustans. In the same manner, the Empress is thus the Queen of the Augustans. The Empress is also being crowned Queen of the Mallans; does the gentleman and his party believe that it is her wish to create a "Mallan Empire"? Surely he cannot think this. Ctesippus Laganas Representative in Zardugal for Empress Maria. |

Message | Esteemed Representative Laganas, Thank you for addressing this assembly and allaying some concerns, which our own government seem unable to do and choose to remain silent on this matter. We asked for a referendum on this matter - as it is such a huge constitutional schism. If the people had voted for the restoration of the monarchy then so be it. However, there has been no referendum and no explanation, which is why we are extremely concerned. Olimpio Gracchus Leader of the Opposition |

Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election. |
