| Message | This would leave us with a surplus of over 1,000,000,000 DDO... I (Renee Keller) am still not happy with this proposal (as I was confused and forgot what I had added to where....). I would definately like to add to education, also food and agriculture. I wouldn't mind cutting the Defence budget even more... what other areas do you think we should focus on? Do you think I should add less to education and more elsewhere? This is open for discussion and I will gladly make any changes as requested...You can even propose and entirely new budget if you would like... |

| Random fact: When it comes to creating a Cultural Protocol in a Culturally Open nation, players are not necessarily required to provide a plausible backstory for how the nation's cultural background developed. However, the provision of a plausible backstory may be a factor in whether Moderation approves the Cultural Protocol if players in surrounding nations question its appropriateness for their region of the game map. |
