The Holy Empire of Naktan has issued a declaration that democratic elections in the Imperial territories, after a relatively peaceful transition into a state entity. The people of the Empire shall thus commit to elections and choose for them leaders in their Parliament to voice opinions and offer advice, counsel, and legislation to the Holy Eminence. We invite the international community to view the elections as they occur.

At current, three parties are pooling resources to win votes: The United Theologian Front (UTF), the Democratic People's Party for Virtuous Government (DPVG), and the Zealots of the Agravyes Order (Zealots). The UTF is the most popular among the people, appealing to their ideals of a good government, structured around the faith and education. The DPVG is more prevalent among the liberals in the country, stressing for improving economic conditions and expanding into the diplomatic community. The Zealots are not expected to win major concessions, considering their extremist plans in dealing with foreigners and their proposals to abolish the democratic institutions and offering martial order to the Holy Eminence.

The polls have opened and the people arer starting to vote, slowly, but surely. The Holy Empire of Naktan will provide an update later.

Initial reports from the Anakstin Province reveal as expected, a high lead by the UTF, while DPVG follows in second. The Zealots are managing a significant minority in the other provinces. As the current readings suggest, voter turnout is expected at about 56%.

As all stands, nothing is out of order as the parliamentary elections continue.

Update...

The UTF has a clear lead over the other parties, and is likely to be named the majority leader in the Parliament. As it stands, the UTF would gain 57 seats on Parliament, while the DPVG would gain 23 seats, leaving one seat for the Zealots. In all, Parliament houses 81 members. Once Parliament is elected, the Parliamentarians have to elect a new government to fill the executive ministries, a set by His Holy Eminence.

In his wise beneficence, the Holy Eminence would like to offer these last moments in the elections as the people of Naktan voice their opinions in the imperial order. A parade is prepared for tomorrow, to celebrate the results of the elections.

From the director of the EU of UE
To: The people of Naktan

We urge all people in your great nation to rise up against the expensive democratic process that binds you. We urge you to take this opportunity to give control of your great land to the wise Zealots of the Agravyes Order. We feel that if they are placed in power there will be a better relationship between our two countries.

Update...

The elections are nearly over with, a certain UTF majority, although the Zealots have earned more seats in Parliament, to the dismay of the DPVG. As of the present moment, the division of Parliament seems set 58 seats to UTF, 17 seats to DPVG, and 6 seats to the Zealots. The last polls are being tallied this very moment, as the UTF prepares celebrations for their apparent victory.
