| Message | We believe that schools should not be forced to teach one designed and designated curriculum over and over again and to have schools themselves decide what's best for our children. National Curriculum limits freedom and creativity for teachers and students. Learning can't just go off on tangents, as there is massive pressure to cover all the material and equip the students for tests. That in turn can cause stress, and an overburden of stress can lead to suicide rates jumping amongst the youth. We don't want that to happen right? |

| Message | “A national curriculum will keep students in different areas from falling behind other areas. It should not increase stress as it’s not like we are going to be arming people with machine guns and getting them to stand behind teachers, also local governments still establish curriculum of material that schools and their teachers should cover, only it is only effecting the teachers in those areas.” |

| 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. |
| Random quote: On 7th February 4281 a group of renowned Metzist experts from all across Terra met in Haldor to form the International Committee for the Estimation of the End Date of Capitalism (ICEEDC). With the assistance of a powerful computer, they calculated that capitalism will terminate Terra-wide on 6th November 4320, and in Dorvik on April 17th 4310. We have no reason whatsoever to believe these very eminent and learned scholars are wrong. They have never been wrong about anything before. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer, General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
