Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Description[?]:
| Nationalism. Nationalism is what managed to make our natio hold out. We survived during all those years only because there were men that accepted to give their lives to protect our values and our very existence. We have to honour them, by sharing their beliefs. Is is not normal to have this desire ? To want your nation to become greater ? To want to protect your values, your culture, your language, your borders, your identity ? We will need everybody, everyone can love its nation, everyone can fight, everyone can work ; unity and fraternity are key. We have to be united under one banner the one that we brandish with pride, the banner of Alduria ! |

| Random fact: Moderation will not accept Cultural Protocol updates which introduce, on a significant scale, cultures which are likely to be insufficiently accessible to players. In particular, for all significant cultures in Particracy, it should be easy for players to access and use online resources to assist with language translation and the generation of character names. Moderation reserves the right to amend Cultural Protocols which are deemed to have introduced significant cultures that are not sufficiently accessible and which are not being actively role-played with. |
