OOC: NO OFFENSE intended toward Communist and Socialist countries in this post.

Cannesburg, Pi

"Thank you, thank you all. Before I begin this speech, I am glad to note the trials of the "Unspeakables", or the former
government, are over. The Communists are being sentenced to death as I speak. I am here to usher in a new era of peace
and prosperity-because I was elected by you! Yes-that's right-you!!!"

I paused. I had done a lot to get to this moment-and I found out capitalism IS a good thing. The Pi Movement helped me get
here, and now I owe them. They bought me the election-and now I made them into PI CORP. The people of Pi will be at PI CORP's
wrath-as I stay Premier for years!!!

"As your new Premier, I wish to completely wipe away the traces of our outmoded Communists. First of all, I would like to
open up Pi to foreign investment (More money for me), and to new ideas, technology, and allies. In fact, once the
symbol of our new age, the Herqytial Palace, is built, I will host the Cannesburg Conference-with all national leaders of this
fine world invited.

"Due to these many new opportunities, some will want to hurt our fine country-and our fine religion of the numbers. In order
to dissaude these potential challengers, we will need to have some military force. I am going to create a standing army of
0.5% of our nation's population for emergency situations. Also, we are starting a nuclear weapon and energy program in order
to get clean, reliable energy for energy independence due to our dwindling oil supplies and weapons in case of threats to our
national security.

"As well as investing in nuclear power, it would be a bright idea to start making solar cells and wind turbines mandatory
at every house in this Theocracy, in steps. Kits will be available from the Pi Corporation for around $500 for both 20 square
feet of solar cells and one 5-foot tall wind turbine, subsidized by the government. Fuel cell programs for cars are also being
subsidized, with the goal of having an affordable fuel cell car on the road in 10 years.

"In the last half century, the official religion of Pi, Piristianity, has been compromised by the Communists. I now wish to
remake the Piristianity Church into what it was before-grand. I propose the head of state of Pi, from now on, is the Bishop
of Cannesburg-or the top official in the Church."

"Our borders are now officially open to international investment, too. We are preparing for Vance Square, around 3 kilometers
away from the Herqytial Palace, to be transformed into an embassy area for interested nations (OOC2: That thread will be up
ASAP). Thank you for your time. I am your new Premier, Andrew Kirkghuch. Have a good day."

There. My first address. Thankfully broadcast around the world. Now if only nations could respond....
