I mark my return to Democraciv after a long hiatus with a new publication. This issue was originally going to be two: One prior to the 2nd election and one after, but my vacation forced me to reform my plans. I hope you enjoy, don't take it too seriously, and continue to make the game interesting for Observers like me!
Hello, my fellow citizens.
The results of our second election have been out for some time now and so I wish to take this opportunity to thank everyone for your participation. Whether you voted for RAD, LTP, REP, SHIP, or whoever: I'm glad that you participated. Your voice is important and this process matters. Sadly our turnout declined from the 1st election, so my personal challenge to you is to push turnout higher next time!
As you could've guessed, I was elected to return to the Ministry alongside QI, Nicko, Joe, and Italian. Just hours ago the voting was formalized and I was re-elected as Prime Minister. It's my honor to serve again. As I've said privately: I was not satisfied with my first term and believe that the Ministry can achieve more this coming term.
As I stand freshly re-elected, I want to express some personal goals for the Norman Administration of the 2nd Government of England.
Firstly I'm calling for a return to positive relations. Some had some bitter fueds at the tail end of the term and I'm calling on this intensity to relax. Disagreement is fine. Standing up for your values is fine. What we can't lose sight of is our love for each other as Englishmen.
I aim to have procedures formally worked on and agreed to regarding the position of Attorney General as to help avoid any future confusion.
Our Military organization remains a prominent issue to me. The efficiency of our streams and importance of constitutionality rely on streamlined and un-overly-complicated military structures. I will continue to work with relevant parties to produce another amendment to the Military Command Act which will provide a simple Military structure to assist the meta logistics of streaming as well as giving our rp and in-game involvement a slightly expanded role. This includes honorific titles that may serve as advisors to the Supreme Commander and upper military leadership. This includes potentially creating a special channel dedicated to military strategy discussions to aid the defensive coordination of our country. I hope that our Senate will support a Military Command Act Amendment. This is one issue I've staked a lot on personally.
I advocate for world exploration in order to expand our diplomatic sight. Once we have a better understanding of the world we can form educated foreign policy doctrines and trade plans.
I hope to expand England to have at least two more cities by the end of this term. While our pace is slow (some would say epic), and this can be difficult; I believe that in this moment surrounded by barbarians: we need more production, we need more protection.
While the Republican Party is opposed to state religion, I believe that it's important meta-wise to pass legislation regarding the use of faith and in-game religion so that players interested in that aspect of the game can enjoy that experience. I encourage such legislation to respect the freedom and spread of religion; provide a structure for community engagement in regards to faith; and bans the use of inquisitors. Also in line with my loosening of religious policy, I will drop my personal hesitation to form closer connections with our religious city state neighbor.
I call on the Senate to amend the conservation act. I'll keep it a buck 50 with you: the Ministry found it's guidelines to be a lot more restrictive than we thought.
I am advocating for a Constitutional amendment to allow the Senate to legislate reasonable regulation and directives on the states. We are not a collection of independent states: We are a united government. Our Senate makes national laws and so should be able to legislate reasonably to the states.
In the spirit of Marshall Stalin, I shall be introducing legislation geared toward protective measures of civilian units. I hope that the Senate can support said measures.
I'll leave it off here as I don't want to overwhelm. I'm excited for our work and believe that the Norman era of England will be a great era of development for our country.
The Senate will be choosing it's leadership in the coming days and once that happens we'll be off to the races!
Moderation is proud to announce the results of the Second General Election of Mark XII!

Comrade Marshall Stalin, as the selected representative of the Red Party of Workers and Peasants plans an optimistic slate of bills for the next session. Included among these are the NOBLE Act, which will eliminate useless titles and emphasize our common comradeship. Not only will that be most epically cool, it will reinforce to all persons that the PEOPLE rule, not a few oligarchs.
Other bills will look to the proper defense of the people, not only from barbarians, but from those who are opposed to our vision of equity for all.
Once again, ye who believes in fairness, in equity and opportunity, are invited to vote your conscience. Your previous votes of support permitted us to block inappropriate and expensive legislation, saving precious income for the use of the people.
Many senators have moderated their bills because of our mere presence. And this effect will only strengthen with your support.
If it be the WILL OF THE PEOPLE, you are welcome to vote for the RED PARTY OF WORKERS AND PEASANTS and ensure that THE PEOPLE keep their place at the table of government.
I know it's ironic for the party based on Lord of the Rings.

People of England, do not fear the barbarian tribes at our doorstep. Supreme Commander Perfectwing and the rest of the Ministry are committed to the defense ans well being of our great nation.
While it can be easy to point fingers at the various bills regarding the military as the reason why our defenses are so lacking, I must draw attention to the fact that our production remains the largest obstacle. The Ministry and Supreme Commander are rushing to provide units as quickly as we can, but training and equipping take time.
I'm proud to have led the way in passing Civic policies that boosted production. I know those in support of gaining faith stood opposed, but the greatest priority was increasing production and defensive skills of our soldiers.
It is in this vein that I encourage the Senate to pass legislation regarding production, military sciences, and longterm-development.
It is also here where I encourage the passage of the amendment to the Military Command Act. This amendment will build upon the basic foundation of our military rank structure. In the fast dash of multiple bills last session we saw multiple contrasting pieces of legislation. I myself got caught in the ego race, but outlining a basic structure for our military command should not be a politicized election-time issue.
As we swing into the next election please remember to get out and vote, review parry platforms and records, and to keep the soul of the nation in mind.
It's perhaps the gravest threats that I'm witnessing our internal unity be splintered by petty partisanship. Partisanship devoid of policy-based disagreements. Partisanship focused on a slash and burn of enemies. In DCiv you have every right to vote for whatever policy or approach that you wish, but I encourage national unity over bitterness.

Week 4 Summary
We are under attack from barbarians to the North and South! Is our military too weak to defend our homes!?
Barbarians Attack!
As our politicians argue about preserving land for future generations, many citizens wonder if there will even be a future to preserve.
Barbarians range across our borders. To the South, the One Eye Clan has struck first (3475 BC), sending their warriors to assault us across the southern river. Luckily our wise Supreme Commander recalled our own soldiers just in time to repel their assault, but not without suffering moderate casualties.
To the North, the Rock Vulture Clan invades us across the "Tefmon National Conservatory", a preserve in name only. They come with clubs and slings against our lone scouts who wield little in ways of weaponry. One has to wonder if Governor @Supreme Cmdr. & Gov. perfectwing should have mustered more effective troops. We are building a slinger, but is this too little, too late?
The fate of our nation rests on if we can survive the hordes, which currently are endless.
The Story Continues
Fortunately, or unfortunately, we are separated from La Venta via a Mountain Range to our South, which runs up right to our Western Lake. It is a natural barrier, which will keep out barbarians, but might hinder future expansion. And, of course, La Venta cannot send troops to our aid.
As per the Conservation Area Founding Act, the Ministry has set aside prime terrain for a future park. There was much discussion about the feasibility of this law and many consider that repealing it, or amending it, might be in order, in particular due to its extremely specific constraints.
This citizen has also been reminded that the Ministry, and its streams, are, unfortunately, not family-friendly.
Government Policies
Our nation has finally figured out how to establish rules for ourselves and our people in the form of a Code of Laws. As such, we may now set grand policies to guide our nation:
Military Policies
Economic Policies
Technology and Civics
The Earth is precious! We have realized that metals can now be gleaned from the ground, if only we pick at it! That said, the current barbarian situation has led us to begin looking into ways we might defend ourselves. Perhaps via a longer range somehow?

Marshall Stalin (marshall_001) said in #senate-discussion at 14:27 UTC:
The host of bills presented for election are nothing more than a groveling list of appeals to make-believe deities, or power grabs from senators who prefer titles to duty. I read each of these bills, and virtually none of them serve the people.
The Senate must do better, if it is to represent the will of the people, and bring the nation to prosperity.
Imperialism is not a viable route to this. However, we do need some defense. But that defense does not require high-minded "generals, admirals, and supremes." Abhorrent.
On behalf of the people who are summarily ignored, we their Party, have spoken.

Our Story
The Tribe of England, long hunter-gatherers, began yearning for something more, something new. A place to rest their head and call home. A land of their own. And perhaps to try this newfangled discovery called Agriculture.
Our leaders, cleverly using a variety of lenses, discovered that an ocean lay to the East. Knowing our destiny lay with the seas, our people ventured over marshland to finally settle London, our first city, along the coast. She is a beautiful small village, with ample access to olives, stones, and water.
Unfortunately, our new nation has attracted the attention of less civilized peoples. London shepherds report meeting with men who notably covered one of their eyes with a headband. This "one-eyed" clan did not attack, but certainly stared at our riches greedily and said that many more of their people will want to "visit" us. It is rumored that their home lies to the Southeast.
On a happier note, our own scouts report meeting a city-state by the name of La Venta. These are a people of faith who say they will teach us how to build Colossal Heads (a faith tile improvement) if we become their friend. Governor Perfectwing remarked that such a "benefit" did not seem very useful.
Current Plans
We are researching Mining and Code of Laws
London is building a Scout
Certain members of London are questioning if we should aim for a stronger presence in the region by outfitting our soldiers with clubs or slings given the presence of the "One-eyed" Clan.
