My friends, noble senators! It has come to my attention that our consul has attempted to expand to Sardinia and Corsica, while this is explicitly against the senate's demands. There are those who argue that the senate had ratified motion #1, which allows the annexing of this territory. However, do we really tolerate the breaking of even one motion? Why, if this is tolerable, we might as well not have motions at all, seeing how easily they can be broken! This is an outrage, and I demand that all Roman arms be pulled out of the islands immediately, for garrison duty in Italia.
