Merchant republics
Trade focus
Some members of our parliament feel that we're not putting enough focus on national trade. It's pretty clear to everyone that we're not exactly dominating trade in this area but we could certainly do worse, at least that's what the other members are claiming. If our previous track record is anything to go by our parliament are not very likely to come to any sort of agreement anytime soon unless someone is able to talk some sense into them. | |||||||

Trade expansion
Discussions regarding ways to expand our trade have been ongoing in the Parliament for some time now. We already have exclusive control over a local centre of trade but there are many who are enticed by the possibilities of overseas trading. Others are convinced that the risks are too great and that more money could be made at home. | |||||||

Budgetary disagreements
Our parliament seems to have some real difficulties coming to terms with how to govern our nation, whether it's agreeing on a budget, taxes, port duties or trade and customs policies. This time it's the budget, should more money be invested into research or be set aside for unforeseen expenses in the future? | |||||||

Disagreements in the parliament
Our Parliament is divided regarding the proposal to establish a new centre of trade. Most of them can't see any logical reason to why such a prominent trading nation as our own shouldn't have its own trade centre but as we all know these things don't come cheap and therefore requires careful consideration. | |||||||

Parliamentary problems
$STATESMAN$ has been quite busy lately, proposing new changes, one after the other. Although you could argue that he's only doing his job, his constant interference and attitude of 'knowing it all' in any matter even remotely related to politics is causing quite a rift in our parliament, there are even those that think we would do better without him. | |||||||

Heated debates
Some members of the parliament are having some concerns regarding our increasingly bad reputation, they are claiming that it's having a negative effect on our trade relations. This question has been raised numerous times in the past but not that many have thought it of any consequence. This time the matter is causing some really heated debates though, perhaps we should try to settle things before they get out of hand. | |||||||

Offense or defense
The ongoing war has lead to some serious conflicts in parliament. On the one side there are those arguing that there is nothing to be gained by allowing the war to drag on while others are convinced that there's no turning back. Unfortunately their inability to come to some sort of agreement does nothing to improve our current situation but rather the contrary. | |||||||

An infiltrator in parliament
There is a spy among us! Somehow a spy has managed to infiltrate our parliament and all of a sudden everyone is a suspect. We haven't managed to find out who sent him yet but since our relations with some of our neighbours are somewhat strained at the moment it was probably one of them. | |||||||

Economic decisions
