Beefdom will rise once more [Concluded]

[ULC]

Are you professing that the interests of this council are inherently against the good of the people, Stefan? I should hope that is not what your insinuating - for then your retort would take on an entirely new meaning.

But to satisfy you, no, I would not bow to the secessionists, the rebels. Their wish is to restore the Kingship of Beefdom, a decidedly theocratic and authoritarian regime, and topple the Holy Bovine Empire, which is decidedly republican and freethinking in its character. These insurgents are thus not altruistic in their intentions, but rather selfish and think nothing of the consequences of their actions to the people.

Such people will never find sanctuary with me.

It is interesting how my loyalty is questioned as such, I only inquired as to allow you to explain your position further. There is no need to relitiate against me, brother, we are more civilised than to degrade ourselves to petty bickering. We are honourable representations of this glorious empire, comrades in arms against the greater threats.

Do you not agree?

It is good to be informed about your commitment to the Holy Bovine Empire, would hate to lose some one of your calibur to the rebellion.

I beg, to ask, what do you wish to do for the good of these rebels? I am most curious.

See? This is the man you would elect, a man without an inkling of why we all stand together?

I did not question your loyalty, Stefani, merely your argument, so that I would awaken you to it's inherent flaws. I hold no ill will towards you, and am glad you see the good the Empire does.

For the rebels? Nothing, so long as they do not repent. For those that might suffer their misguided wrath, I will aid them as much as I can.

Republican is an extremely radical term. Our constitution is more like that of an Oligarchy.

While the country is called the Holy Bovine Empire, during the peace time it takes shape like the Republic Romans with two consulates.
Well thats at least my understanding of it.

[Beskar]

(Though in a way, we are closer to Prince-Electors of the Holy Roman Empire, opposed to Senators of Rome. I believe we are what is termed a "Noble Republic", or what was present in Venice (the Doge), Poland (Noble Commonwealth) etc.)

vote for me and i will lead this country into a new era of peace and prosperity. i will make an end to this rebellion for once and for all. we will make an golden era, the like of which even the Dutch will be astounded!

And even the streets are a-humming in the afternoon sun
this is what they can be heard to be singing

where do you come from oh stranger
where to do you fare

I come from the summit of spamdoom
and a message I bare

what news do you bring oh stranger
of who shall you beg it to hear

I bring news of revived salvation
to whoever will lend me his ear
