General Election in the Divine Imperium(Open Q/A Session/RP)

Roania
28-05-2004, 07:46
Throughout the Divine Imperium of Novar Ohan, one word is currently being whispered. One word, but a word which has so much resting upon it... an election. Harold Cartwright, who has been Prime Minister for 17 years, has stepped down, and the CDP no longer has the majority in parliament it requires to retain government without forming a coalition.

The new Prime Minister and Party President James Grey has thus declared a general election in 2 weeks time, meaning that each of the 4 parties which will have candidates running for Prime Minister will have a limited amount of time to get their message out to the public. The 4 candidates and their parties are:

*Prime Minister Baron James Tyrel Grey; Central Democrat Party
Deputy Leader: Carlos Papen
Supported by Prince Daniel Edward Black

*Leader of Her Imperial Highness's Loyal Opposition, Lieutenant Grigori Hans Kroenen; National Socialist Imperial Worker's Party
Deputy Leader: Heinrich Goebbels
Supported by Prince Damien Alexander Black

*Lord General Count Vladimir Hohenzollern; Imperial Party
Deputy Leader: Comm. Reindhart Ustenov
Supported by Archduke Simon Darquis; Grand Duke Leopold von Agua; Tacitly approved by Kaiserin Malissa Lucille Black

*Clarissa Bencenoff; Socialist Party (in coalition with the Peace Party)
Deputy Leader: James Genser (Peace Party)
No particular supporters in the upper ranks of government; Princess Rachel Edwina Black II has occasionally spoken in support of their policies

============

One true measure of the power of these parties is the location from which they primarily work. The CDP's main base is in an office block in the Stronghold of Roan, close to the centre of power. The NSIWP's leaders can most often be found in the People's Tavern (Formerly the Bull and Whistle), in the massive city of Port Agua, close to the population which they draw on with mass rallies and simple ((OOC: though foul and brutal)) policies.

The Imperials are based in a restored medieval tower in the traditionalist stronghold of Fort Derricks, under the watchful eye of Castle Darquis. It's rumoured that the Archduke's young adopted daughter, Elizabeth Darquis, can often be found there studying works of military history. Finally, the Socialist/Peace Parties Coalition is based in the distant city of Altara Town, within the Internal People's Republic of Altara.

==============

James Grey sighed, disconsolately, as he looked out on the desert city. From his office he could see both the Palace, and the Houses of Parliament. "I must have been mad...all I ever wanted out of life was to be an MP...then I became Minister for Health and Social Security... and now my party wants me to become Prime Minister! What do I know about running a country?"

A disgruntled snort came from a nearby chair as former Prime Minister Cartwright woke up from his nap. "Eh? What's that?" The old man asked, rubbing his eyes. "I was having the nicest dream...I had stepped down as Prime Minister to tend to my garden..."

"Harold, please... you got me into this mess! Now tell me how to get out!" James said, almost getting on the floor to beg.

Cartwright sat up straighter. "Well, as I see it, you have two options. Number one, you go ahead with this election, and become the greatest Prime Minister this country has ever seen. Or lose, in which case you either become Leader of the Opposition, or get a nice lecture circuit job."

James collapsed back into his own chair. "Thank you. Thank you very much. What's option two?"

"Well...you could call up Party HQ, and tell them you'll step down in favour of Carlos..." The old man yawned. "Oh, excuse me."

"I'll do that, then. Carlos is a perfectly fine fellow."

"He's a virtual unknown," Cartwright said, and now a note of steel entered his voice. "If you step down, then Kroenen wins." Cartwright summed up the entire problem right there. "And that's not why I stepped down, that's not why the Party HQ made you president. We have faith in you...don't throw that aside."

James sighed, and looked heavenward. "If I was half the man you were..."

"You'd be a pretty stupid fellow. If I had been doing my duty, this situation would never have arose. I think I can call my years as PM one of my...less succesful jobs." Cartwright tried to rise out of his comfortable chair. "The country's in debt, there's a Nazi in the seat of the Opposition... and I'm an old and senile fool who's been too long in government." Cartwright raised a hand when he saw James open his mouth. "I will not be interupted!" The former PM said, displaying a fraction of that strength which had once carried him through debates in the Burghers.

"We have faith in you, James...don't let us down..." the old man said, as he once more started to drift off to sleep. And James felt a tinge of backbone come into play.

You're absolutely right, old man...I will not let my party down. I will not let my country down!

==============

A meeting of a very different sort was taking place in a smoky room in Port Agua. Kroenen sat at the head of a long table, taking the congratulations that he believed were no more than his due.

His Deputy Leader, Heinrich Goebells, raised his mug of ale. "To Our Glorious Fuhrer! Seig Heil!"

The men around the table clanked their own mugs together. "Seig Heil! To The Fuhrer!" They quieted as Kroenen rose to his feet.

He held his own mug up, and nodded. "Gentlemen, we are embarked on a grand adventure. If we succeed, we will be cast in history as heroes! Let us not lose sight of our goal, the purification of this Divine Imperium! We will crush the Bolsheviks and the Elves, and cast out the Muslims and the Jews!"

A brash young man banged up his mug onto the table, and shouted out the party's motto: "One Empire! One Culture! One Leader!" The cry was repeated around the table, and Kroenen continued.

"We will cleanse this nation of its impurities, and then destroy those who threaten us from without! The Imperium will take what it needs from the lands of the dead, and the inferior races will either be our slaves, or be cast out beyond the outer darkness!"

The conversations and arguments lasted long into the night, as the strongest political force in the Imperium began its preparations to rebuild the nation in its own image.

==============

The shriek of a firebird could be heard in the distance as Hohenzollern looked out the window. The former General's breath hung in the air. At this altitude, it was always cold. And so, it begins. He was confident of victory. Even though his younger brother had lost the Premiership of Agua to that Naso Robert Speer, or whatever his name was, James still had the powerful backing of the military and the two High Dukes. What did it matter that he had little popular support?

He knew those peasants. They would support the populist parties at first, but in the end they would do as told by their betters. And he was sure that those betters would support him.

No, of rather more concern to him was this Coalition. They should know better than to interfere with things beyond their understanding. And their candidate was a woman, of all things.

Not that he was prejudiced against women, of course not. He had nothing but the highest respect for them, and he wouldn't dream of considering HIH to be unworthy of reigning over the country. She was supporting him, after all. But, and of course I understand that I can't actually say this, that's exactly what she should be doing. Supporting those of us who are, by grace of nature, better equipped for actually running the country. That Clarissa trollop needs a husband to calm her down and convince her that she's not suited for this task. Besides, she never even served in the military; at least that Kroenen chap had served in the military. Yet, for some reason, there were nobles supporting her. Class traitors, the lot of them. And the worst was Princess Rachel.

Back in the old days, she'd have been happily married by this time. But here she was, 13 years old and no hint of even looking for a husband. At least Elizabeth was being courted by Prince Daniel. Only 8 years difference between the two girls. And neither was married yet. When I take power, I'll do something about that.

The knock came at his door, and he finished adjusting his tie, and went out to meet his supporters.

=============

Clarrisa hung up the phone. It had been CRO Zhastosky on the line, congratulating her for her nomination. Some times, however, she got the feeling that the communist Premier secretly despised her. Just because the treaty that had kept Altara as a Dictatorship of the Proletariat (and had stopped the southerners from destroying the fledgling state) said that the Communist Party could never run in elections anywhere else, not even in a general one.

She thought that that was irrational, but kept her silence. It isn't right that just because they got rid of the nobles in Altara that they should be prohibited from forming new sections within the other city states. The southerners should understand that the Altaran nobles were thieves and liars... the other nobles need only to be modulated a little. As it stood, the CPA had leant its support to her campaign, though they accepted that the idealogy owed very little to their own, and they also accepted the fact that the Coalition needed to work with the Bourgouis and the Aristocracy to gain seats elsewhere. And the Premier had just as high regard for the young princess as Clarissa did.

Ah...Rachel. She would be a good Kaiserin...it was a shame that the southerners would never let her take power if there were males in the imperial family. But she was such a sweet girl, kind and caring. Still, Clarissa had her own troubles. She took heart from the example of the Kaiserin, and of that wonderful woman, Allysandra Ellestrea. If elected, I'll make this Imperium a better nation. I swear!

For various reasons, I'm keeping that seperate from the actual election thread, which will be up shortly.

Press Conference/debate

*The candidates filter up to their podiums on the stage*

Mediator: Please stand for the Imperial Anthem.

*crowd is lead in Imperial Anthem*

Mediator: This floor is now open for questions.

1st Reporter: Yes, James Marlowe from The Roanian Independent. I was just wondering if I could get each candidate's opinion on welfare for the unemployed?

James Grey: Yes, that's an interesting question. As you all know, I was the Minister for Health and Social Security. Our current policies are, I feel, a demonstration of success. Under the current welfare regime, we've increased employment a great deal, almost eliminating the...

Clarissa Bencenoff: Your policies have also shattered the unions, and made employers overly powerful! People are afraid of leaving their jobs for better ones, because there's no longer a support for people who are unemployed. What the Imperium needs is a standardized welfare system, based on merit, and legalisation of trade unions. The guild system should be broken, or at least supplemented, by support for the people who actually do the work. But that's just...

James Grey: Ma'am, I was trying to explain my policies... as I was saying, before I was interrupted, we've almost eliminated the need for welfare, and full employment is easily in reach...

Grigori Hans Kroenen: It's absolutely disgusting, the way that your current system provides mutual recognition of new immigrants alongside people whose families have lived here for generations.

*murmurs of approval/disgust*

James Grey: I'm sorry?

Grigori Hans Kroenen: The employment system should be reorganised so that native Roanians should get first priority for any and all jobs. It's obvious that we're superior to them in every way, and I can't stand seeing you people deny your own people on behalf of newcomers and inferiors.

James Grey: Now see here, I didn't insult you...

Clarissa Bencenoff: How dare you! I'll have you...

Grigori Hans Kroenen: Be silent!

Vladimir Hohenzollern: No, you be quiet. What a pretty mess this nation has come to, when people like you can be at the helms of political parties. Back in the old days, we took care of unemployment by putting the able-bodied into the military, and shooting the beggars...and we didn't have all this nonsense about foreigners being equal to us, either.

Grigori Hans Kroenen: Hear, hear!

Vladimir Hohenzollern: Oh, be silent, you jumped up Lieutenant. What makes you qualified to lead a political party? You aren't even a noble!

*Kroenen's face turns red, and he looks about to launch himself bodily at Hohenzollern. Both James and Clarissa look outraged, and they both seem about to shout.

Mediator: In the name of Her Imperial Highness, I will have order!

*The Mediator bangs his gavel loudly.

Mediator: Next question?

2nd Reporter: Yes, here. Walter Jones, Port Aguan Herald... if elected, what would be your foreign policy directives?

Kroenen: Well, as you most likely know, I feel that the Divine Imperium has for too long been curtailed in seeking its rightful living space. We have a natural right to the west coast of North America, and to the Kamchatka Peninsula, and we need them for our rapidly growing population. Since they have largely been depopulated, and are lacking in good government, I feel that we have a duty to move in, and assist our racial brothers. As well, our rightful interests to the south have been curtailed by the inferior races of Ianisle and East Islandia. This insult must go avenged, and we *must* secure the Micronesian Islands, and purify...

James Grey: Oh, and I suppose you'd like to start another world war while you're at it. I'm sure we can all agree that my government's foreign policy has been incredibly successful. Under the capable leadership of Archduke Simon Darquis, we have re-established contact with Knootoss, and initiated diplomatic...

Vladimir Hohenzollern: Yes...of course, the heir to the throne of Derricks has come out in support of my party... so has Archduke Simon, in fact. And his adopted daughter... so has your Minister for Industrial Matters, Grand Duke Leopold von Agua...

James Grey: *stares, uncomprehendingly, at a point on the far wall*

Vladimir Hohenzollern: Ah, I take it that means it's my turn. Upon my ascenscion as Prime Minister, I will take it upon myself to open further diplomatic contact with METUS, our natural allies. While I'm not particularly certain as to the idea of a manifest destiny, I will do my best to bring the traitor provinces of the Jungle Waste, and Altara to hee...

Clarissa Benchenoff: How dare you! This is exactly the problem with your parties. You talk and talk, and then you go out and do evil. You aristocrats for too long have had government to yourself, and it must end! Upon my own ascenscion as Prime Minister, I will eliminate the laws that keep my homeland's primary party from taking part in national politics. I will also attempt to open up greater contact with Knootoss and the liberal democracies, and work to cleanse the debris of...

Vladimir Hohenzollern: Oh, go and get married, will you? You women have no idea of what you're talking about, and you are only humiliating yourself in the process.

*Kroenen is torn between anger, and a. Clarissa is humiliated, and looks on the verge of tears. James Grey looks almost as offended. Crowd sounds shocked*

James Grey: Sir, I must object... you have insulted the honour of a lady, and Her Imperial Highness.

*Hohenzollern stops, his jaw hanging open. Angry growls come from the crowd.*

Mediator: Order! Order! One more outburst like that, My Lord, and I'll have you ejected from the race. Next question, gentlemen?

"Raphael Jaeger, Mikatopian National News.If elected, how will each candidate act on the current Tremalkier/Assington conflict?"

Grigori Hans Kroenen: I feel that we have a moral imperative to assist the nation of Tremalkier, who are our racial and religious kin. President Calis of Assington should stand down immediately for his offense against the great Aryan powers...

James Grey: While not disagreeing with Lieutenant Kroenen about Calis's actions, the Central Democratic Party feels, and will continue to feel, that these are internal matters, and that the Tremalkieri government has no right to interfere. They are in the wrong here, and if re-elected I will put forward a bill in Parliament asking for permission to send a military force to aid METUS and Assington in driving back these oppurtunists.

Clarissa Benchenoff: There can be no support for either side in this conflict, as both are guilty of disregarding international law and common sense. As well, they are both dictatorships, and we can surely do better than to have any contact with either side.

Vladimir Hohenzollern: I must agree with the Lieutenant here. The nation of Tremalkier is ideaologically akin to our own, and their ruling class is closely aligned with ours. I am sure that Kaiserin Malissa would not appreciate us taking up arms against the Kaiser of Tremalkier...

James Grey: And you would have us abandon our allies?

Vladimir Hohenzollern: When they are in the wrong? Absolutely.

IC:

James Grey: The Central Democratic Party's policy remains the same. The Martial Order of St. Michael will not be returned as an Inquisition. Even if I did support its reinstatement, and not have its leaders arrested if they tried anything, the Catholic Church of Novar Ohan has no interest in doing such a thing.

Grigori Hans Kroenen: The Inquisition's tasks of rooting out the inferior can be easily accomplished by the government through the formation of special squadrons with the brief of purification.

Clarissa Benchenoff: *is shocked into silence by both the question, and by Kroenen's answer*

Vladimir Hohenzollern: Well, of course I would! The Inquisition is what made this Imperium great!

Mediator: Candidates, you have five minutes each to explain your policy on Sentient Rights...

James Grey: Yes. Now, I think you can all agree that we wouldn't even be having this discussion without my party.

Grigori Hans Kroenen: May you all burn in Hell...

James Grey: Quite. Now, we have done everything we could to make the Imperium's minorities feel a part of this nation, with educational oppurtunities and jobs opened for them. If re-elected, I see no reason not to continue that course, and bring those less prosperous than ourselves into the warm embrace of this Imperium.

Mediator: I see. Do you have any policy examples?

James Grey: Um...well...errr...yes. Parliamentary Bill number...3...4 hmmm...751, I think. The CDP initiated a refugee acceptance quota, and started a free education system.

Mediator: Thank you, Baron Grey. Lieutenant Kroenen?

Grigori Hans Kroenen: *Yawns...* Have you read my book?

Mediator: Sorry, I don't...

Grigori Hans Kroenen: Mein Krieg. No, you haven't...if you had, you would never have asked such a ridiculous question. My policy on sentient rights is...there shouldn't be any. A Democracy should assist the majority of the population only. We shouldn't bother with these parasites, who come here, interfere with our work...they should be eliminate...

Mediator: Thank you, Lieutenant...

Grigori Hans Kroenen: I haven't finished...

Mediator: Thank you, Lieutenant... Miss Benchenoff?

Clarissa Bencenoff: I...hmm... while...well, the CDP's policies are...certainly very well thought-out... and very helpful to the people in question...

James Grey: Thank you, madame.

Clarissa Bencenoff: More could be done. The upper classes of this nation are barred to the minorities, because they are minorities. This must be stopped. The People's Bloc, if elected, will work to open up universities and officer ranks in the military to minority groups, and encourage multiculturalism.

Mediator: I see...My Lord Hohenzollern?

Vladimir Hohenzollern: All of these fine...people...miss the point. There is no point in government policies, or elimination of them...the 'minorities' within this Divine Imperium should be assimilated. Forcefully, if neccessary. Their own culture should be stamped out at birth, and they should be forbidden any knowledge of their native language. As well, action must be taken against the Micronesian and Melanesian population. We must remove their children from the poor care of their parents, and work to give them a better life in white hands.((*))

Mediator: Thank you, gentlemen...there will be an hour's recess.

James Grey:...well, since the Divine Imperium of Novar Ohan and the Sunset Isles isn't a member of the United Nations, and has little intention of joining it, I fail to see how it matters particularly what they do.

Clarissa Bencenoff: I...well... it isn't for me to say... It doesn't affect the Imperium, so I doubt the Parliament will allow me to take such an action. The UN proposal does sicken me, as it should all people who care about their fellow man.

Grigori Hans Kroenen: The UN is a foul morass of bureaucracy and fools. Under no circumstances will the Divine Imperium be bound by its meaningless decrees.

Vladimir Hohenzollern: I have nothing to say on this subject, as there are many more important things to deal with. Like...pocket lint, say.

During the break...

Clarissa sipped her glass of water carefully, while watching her fellow candidates. That Hohenzollern... how dare he! It's just that sort of thinking which keeps our nation in the political darkages. She felt a presence behind her. "Baron Grey...can I help you?"

"Madame, I'd like to congratulate you," the PM said. "You have such...good policies, and seem to be such a good person...it must be a shame that you know you'll lose." James looked her up and down, quickly.

Clarissa looked up at him. "I have no intention of losing, Baron Grey..."

"James, please, Madame. I'm not that high a noble that I need to be reminded of it every time I do anything."

"Then call me Clarissa, and I'll call you James. Now, as I was saying, I have no intention of losing, James, without at least becoming leader of the Opposition."

"Yes...but for a communist like yourself to..." he was interrupted by a ringing slap. His eyes blurred.

"I am not a communist..." Clarissa said, angrily. "I am, and always have been, a Social Democrat. I am a loyal daughter of the Imperium, thank you. You're as bad as that...that...bastard Hohenzollern. That sexist bastard," she blinked, trying to restrain her emotions, "thinks that...he's just like those idiots I've been fighting against all my life...I thought that..." tears started to run down her face. She knew she looked ridiculous, but she couldn't stop herself. Just the thought made her so angry, and it was worse for knowing she couldn't do anything about it.

James rubbed his cheek, ruefully. "I'm sorry...I didn't mean to insult you, Clarissa..." he pulled a tissue from out of his pocket. "Here...don't cry, if you cry, he wins..." she took it thankfully, and rubbed her tears away.

"You don't know what it's like...I know I'll lose, but I have to do something...have you ever seen the people you claim to represent? I have...I can't just let this election be another one where they have to choose the lesser...the..." she stopped, embarrased to talk like this in front of him.

James laughed, heartily. "Lesser of three evils?"

"Oh, I don't think you're evil..." she said, hurriedly. "It's just that..."

Hohenzollern stalked in, his cloak flying behind him and his cane in hand. "My, my...what's this? A lover's tiff?" He showed his teeth in a little half-smile.

Clarissa glared at him, and deliberately picked up her glass, before splashing it into his face. She turned, and left through the other door, leaving the two men staring after.
