Well, let's just say the majority of the populace is rather, shall we say uncomfortable, with socialism, given the socialist-aligned Democratic Republic and the whole socialist bush wars era.

Oelesa has only been an absolute Monarchy for 15 years following its independence. 1864 to 1879. Then an Elective monarcy. The 15 year term for the Monarch comes from when the first King ruled for that long. I'm just to lazy to write any if it out, and I doubt it'll get many reads.

Id probably read it. But I'd definitely read it if you converted to a dynastic constitutional monarchy (with the Legislature still there, but with you having executive powers and your sons/daughters inheriting the position) and combined with the prestigious Beck House.

Sounds nice, Streicher's term is almost out. Which means I need a new Monarch, but of all the heads of state, this one us my favorite. Abiding by the history and laws I thought up is harder than I thought.

There is great love for the King with his Progressive Party re taking the houses in The Grand Council. Idk, I wonder what the dice say.

I have 4 dice. Anything above 15 results in the King having power to psss legislation making the Monarch for life passing through his blood line because of the love in the nation for him. Anything below results in him falling to take control because of a united coalition of the Libertarian's and Conservatives against him in the House of Nobles.

Go number 17!

Now, if you have any daughters, I have a great suggestion. My Keizer is unmarried, and, in order to form a more perfect empire, I say we have a royal marriage and (eventually) unite to form the House of Beck-Streicher (or Streicher-Beck, but the first one rolls of the tongue more.) and establish one monarchy whenever the heir of the House of Beck and House of Streicher is one.

If you accept but want to come up with a totally new name, I could work with that too.

The first one does roll off the tongue better. Let my nation go through its process (I need a laptop which is being used right now) and we'll go from there.

Aldaur now has a National Philosophy instead of a religion or ideology. Aldaur adheres to Legalism. Our government is also a Bureaucratic Dynasty (imagine the Chinese Imperial Bureaucracy and the Japanese monarchy). We have a legislature as well, but most of the power lies in the Sovereign.

Andromitus wrote:Might I ask, what was the NGA

The NGA had two incarnations: one under our original Founder Silver and the second under Inf. The Glory Days was the first incarnation. It was where it all began, before any of the moves. The only people from there are me, Jas, and Unf. There was hardly any drama and everyone lived pretty peacefully (I was hot-tempered towards Unf; didn't like him for the longest time, don't know why). It's when all the legendary members existed like COLDR, UAL, Silver, Microsoft (she was in the beginning of the CFN, I know, but I group the period as one), and so many more (I don't mention GF because of his coup). This was before people like Vista, Kal, Sul, and Oel. The good days.

It was where we relocated after Silver went nuts and pulled the government out of Power because they decided that a more..."Active" Founder was needed.

We chose to follow Unf rather than Silver, went to the NGA and stayed there for a few months, only leaving after Valt had made the game sufficiently toxic to push five people out of the Region -Including me!- and subsequently settled inside of Montaris without him or Unf -We were of the impression that Unf had willingly aligned with Valt in hurting us-

Frankly, it was the literal worst months of this game for me and like...seven or eight other people -if not most of the region- and I really don't want to repeat it.
