    Ewww. I've seen too many pictures of her to think this "influence" could ever be pleasurable.

    9th is good for me. Let's hope my country doesn't fall apart.


    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

    The foreign minister of the United States of America sends his sympathy to the peoples of the United Kindom, which suffered under the rule of Canning. We hope his successor will do a beter job!

    Speech of the King of French in Parliament after his first year as King,

    Citizens of France! I am glad to see that our new government has taken successful steps in order for both the Kingdom of France and its citizens to prevail from the troubled times we live in.

    Our new government has seized the initiative and while we are severely lacking funds. Major new programs have started and some already concluded successfully.A major land reform has been successfully concluded. Wast tracks of lands that laid waste after the great wars are now in use. Veterans of our glorius armies and citizens that had previosly lost their means to support their families have now been given land by the government, which is being put on good use. Our foreign policies have secured us continuos flow of cheap raw materials we didnt have access after we had lost our colonies and trade fleet. Great cities of France that lay in rubble are now being rebuilt, while the severely damaged infrastructure of our Nation is being repaired.

    We have a new army. Army made of citzens to protect the citizens of our country. We have moved on from hiring foreign mercenaries and today it is French men that are protecting France.

    All these achievements are fruits from the labour of united citizenry. But as your King i will not lie to you or paint you a picture that is different from the truth. The scale of turmoil and devastation we have witnessed is almost beyond comprehension. We need more then 100 million Thalers to repair our country. While our annual budget which is mostly spent on annual upkeeps of several institutions to insure public safety and government to function is hardly enough to even start the huge work we have. Because of this as your King i plead to all my fellow French men. Right now if you have any capability small or great.Buy the national bonds released by the government this year. We cant promise you huge profits, but that is not the point of them in any case.The point is to help each other, as who else will help us, if we dont help ourselves? More you buy, sooner our Nation can repair the wounds inflicted to us. I am personally going to use half of my own monetary assets to buy these bonds, so that a fisherman in La Rochelle can continue his trade. So merchant in Marseilles can put food on his familys table. So that the orphans in Toulon wont starve to death shivering in the rain, under the open sky. This is the time to make a stand. This is time to show the world what the French are made off!

    Louis-Philippe I, Royaume des Français

    It appears I was a little zealous in suggesting Melbourne - we will not have the pleasure of his company for a few years yet. After consulting Wiki I have decided to skip the next PM who was only in for a few months and go straight to The Iron Duke himself - gentlemen of the Concert - please welcome Sir Arthur Wellsely, better known as
    The Duke of Wellington.
