| Message | I'm not sure about this one. On one hand, I believe that Dolgar should be in charge of its own fate, and we don't need international treaties to direct us in the right way- it might even drag us into situations which we would want to avoid. On the other hand, I do appreciate the civil rights given in some of the laws, and believe we should keep them. |

| Message | NATO has been invaluable to us many times, including the Endralon-Dolgarian War, in which they helped us stave off no less than four nations unilatterally declaring war on us. We were able to end that would-be conflict diplomatically because of their support. But you would know that if you were truly patriotic. |

| Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
