For the purpose of vital government works, the state has the Right to seize private property. However, the state appealing to court of compensation deems to high is nonsensical.

Message | The transparency of the government is necessary to maintain a peaceful relationship with the citizenship. It isn't fair for citizens that the government sets the standards for compensation, but neither it is for the government when citizens set the standards themselves. That is the reason why we believe a neutral body should set the standards, so it is imparcial. Jaqueline Oppenheim Chair of the Democratic Party Infrastructure and Transport Committee |

Random fact: It is not allowed to call more than 5 elections in 5 game years in a nation. The default sanction for a player persisting in the early election tactic will be a seat reset. |
