Description[?]:
| The health of a democracy chiefly depends upon how able the citizens of that democracy are able to express themselves. We consider the treatment of the national flag to fall under this category of self-expression, and thus we should feel that the citizens of this nation should be able to desecrate this symbol in order to draw attention to the larger issues it faces. Huirangi Reihana Party Chairman |

| Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, it is the responsibility of players to ensure the candidate boxes on their Party Overview screens are filled in with appropriate names. If a player is allotted seats in a Cabinet bill and has not filled in names for the relevant candidate position, then the program will automatically fill in the positions with names which might not necessarily be appropriate for the Cultural Protocols. |
