A small yellow lab makes his way to the stage. Sho is already sitting back in her chair, having just finished her opening statements for the camera. The jingle of “Bad’s” tags catches the attention of Chuck, one of The Wave’s producers. Chuck has to lift him into the chair, as the sizable stick he is carrying prevents him from jumping up.

_{Bad before entering the studio.}

Sho: Alright, thanks for agreeing to do this interview! All of these questions are citizen submitted and may be followed up towards the end. Would you like to open with a statement for our voters?

Bad: Sure! Vote Bad for free cyborgs and a dual parliament made up of humans and robots. Soda in the water fountains.

Sho: Oh my, very insightful! Our first question touches on experience. This comes from Zentata: “Do you feel as though you have enough experience to properly act as the pm?”

Bad wags his tail.

Bad: Hi Zentata! Given how I was the first elected PM of Thalassia, I think I'm pretty qualified. Some other roles I've served as are MoS, keeping the stinky out of Thalassia.

Sho: Hey, that’s not true! You’re still here, stinky! ;)

Bad lets out a small disgruntled growl. A dog in the audience howls in laughter. No one knows how he got here. Where are his parents?

Sho: Our next question comes from Jorge (Hispanian union): “How different will your government be, if you win?”

Bad: My government will be historical. It will be historical because we will be moving all government jobs to robots. This means 8ball, card tricks, Uno, etc. Basically we're gonna sit around and play cards.

_{An artists rendering of what Bad’s Cabinet may look like.}

Sho’s inner possum escapes long enough for a hiss. Her face shifts like Venom. It is horrific.... Just kidding. She just shakes her head and laughs.

Sho: Tuna fish surprise or cream of possum soup for Thanks I Hate It Thursday’s luncheon?

These next serious questions come from Conklandi: “What are your policies on alternative energy?” and “How are you going to improve Thalassia's perks?”

Bad: Cream of possum soup. Possum soup is actually good!

Sho visibly gags at the concept of cannibalism. Bad is blissfully unaware of her plight.

Bad: Policy on alternative energy? Hecc the term alternative. I'm going in on 100% clean green energy. Hecc that coal, hecc that oil, hecc that gas. We're going all solar, wind, water and geothermal. Avatar babyyyy.

Thalassian cards has been a movement that's been overlooked. I'm going to gather card players and we're going to combine our efforts!

Bad boops the table. MOAR QUESTIONS!

Sho: A hot button topic this election! This was submitted by Grey county, Federated Commonwealth of Selstville, and Monkelandd, and further expanded on by the latter.

“What are your opinions on a legislature? Bicameral or unicameral? Parties or not? Etc.”

Monkelandd also wants to know if “you plan on any constitutional changes?”

Bad: Legislature! Hot topic o.o! I think a unicameral system would work best honestly. We could have parties but the only parties I would support are birthday and holiday parties.

Constitutional changes? Nothing much, just changing the font to comic sans and making the color bright yellow.

Sho: Here’s a brief reprieve from our long winded questions: Arenado wants to know why each candidate is running. So what is your reason?

Bad: For fun! Next question. 😁

Sarcastic spongebob appears on the screen behind them saying “I poLiTiK 4 FuNSieS”. Sho looks like she is about to eat someone. The producers frantically turn it off.

Sho: Ahem. So! A couple of shy voters sent these in: The Monarch’s responsibility is the security/moderation of the region, advising of the elected government, and the maintenance of our offsite properties. The WA Delegate has sole control over our WA affairs/programs and communications with WA alliances. What do you see as the responsibilities of the Prime Minister?

Will you be creating any ministries not required by the Constitution? What will be their purpose be and how will they function? If not, you mentioned your intent to keep Arenado’s MoR and MoAA. Will they see any significant changes you haven’t already mentioned?

Bad: The prime minister is designed to be a leader of the people. Having pioneered the role myself, the PM should be interactive, and listen to their constituents. The PM kinda has a finger in every pie, and should take a proactive role in every ministry.

I will, if elected, keep all current ministries the way they are, except for some minor changes to MoI and Moc. I will also create a ministry of bouncy castles, which will be in charge of distribution of bouncy castles.

A single tear slides down Sho’s cheek.

Sho:It’s always the bouncy castles... no one cares about those of us who prefer water slides. 😭

Also, our final question.. Cannolis?

Bad: I will answer that question with a question. Where's my grandma?

The Guardians of the Galaxy and The Avengers can see heard arguing in the audience about whether or not the better question is “Who is your grandma?” or “Why is your grandma?”

Sho: That’s all we have for you for now, provided there are no more question submissions. Would you like to make a closing statement?

Bad: Yes. I. DECLARE. BANKRUPTCY!!!!!!!! Also wear a mask. Also also water slides are a slippery slope- too many injuries.

Bad hops out of the chair and attempts to finger gun away but fails because he doesn’t have thumbs. Chuck is sent to follow behind him and finger gun for him. Time for the next candidate...

Sho: Alright, thanks for agreeing to do this interview! All of these questions are citizen submitted and may be followed up towards the end. Would you like to open with a statement for our voters?

Conklandi: Vote for me for a realistic minister who will be honest to you. Always.

Sho:A commendable opening attitude! Let’s start with one of the questions you are asking other candidates... How are you going to improve Thalassia’s perks?

Conklandi: The perks will be related to cards with a potential daily supply of cards for every Thalassian. It will use a group of card farms to produce cards, leading to increased satisfaction and an incentive to join the region.

Sho: Our next question comes from Zentata: “Do you feel as though you have enough experience to properly act as the pm?”

Conklandi: Well, I feel that desipite my relatively lack of experience compared with the other candidates, I will bring in a certain vigour in office. An infuision of new perspectives. [sic]

Sho: Our next question comes from Jorge (Hispanian union): “How different will your government be, if you win?”

Conklandi: It will build on the previous government's achievements with the addition of previously under represented opinions. As well as increase embassies. And equality.

Sho: Oh! A roleplay question! I always love these because it gives us insight into the IC mind of the PM when they’re not running OOC affairs.

What are your policies on alternative energy?

Conklandi: It will centre on renewables for the sjort [sic] term which will fuel the construction for fusion reactors.

The fuel for fusion reactors are present on the moon and the sea respectively, allowing it to produce energy from easily available resources.

Meanwhile, renewables will fuel the country as a backup.

Sho: A hot button topic this election! This was submitted by Grey county, Federated Commonwealth of Selstville, and Monkelandd, and further expanded on by the latter.

“What are your opinions on a legislature? Bicameral or unicameral? Parties or not? Etc.”

Monkelandd also wants to know if “you plan on any constitutional changes?”

Conklandi: I am for a bicameral legislature as it allows for a loop that moderates the decisions made by the government, preventing dictatorships from sprouting.

I acknowledge that parties are necessary for political representation as it allows less influential members to have their opinions heard along with those with more clout.

Finally, I don't plan to make any changes to the constitution.

Sho: Our next questions come from a very concerned Wymondham, who is uneasy that you’re running for PM while being so new to the Thalassian political scene. His questions are:

"You have not served in government as even a civil servant, how can you have the fainest idea of how to implement government policy, work with the founder, create a healthy cabinet atmosphere or represent Thalassia to our allies in Lazarus and Osiris?"

"You wish to "Expand Thalassia's influence via the construction of embassies" - what would your requirements for an embassy be?"

"The majority of your platform is Roleplay based, what are you going to do for the majority of Thalassians who do not even partake in the roleplay?"

Conklandi: I can bring a fresh perspective for governance that won't be tainted by old rules, which can be supplemented by familiarzation with Thalassia.

The requirements for an embassy would be that they have mostly democracies, have enough members to warrant a Discord server and they could have a potential to create a WA voting bloc.

I will try to be accessible for questions and queries for all Thalassians.

Sho: Here’s a brief reprieve from that.

Arenado wants to know why each candidate is running. So what is your reason?

Conklandi: I will be running to give a sober alternative to the flashy campaigns that will have nothing in substance in policies.

Sho: The Monarch’s responsibility is the security/moderation of the region, advising of the elected government, and the maintenance of our offsite properties. The WA Delegate has sole control over our WA affairs/programs and communications with WA alliances. What do you see as the responsibilities of the Prime Minister?

Conklandi: To advise, keep in check and to support them.

Sho: Will you be creating any ministries not required by the Constitution? What will be their purpose be and how will they function?

Conklandi: The Ministry of Cards for the production and distribution of cards in Thalassia.

Sho: Thank you Conklandi! Good luck. Would you like to give us a closing statement?

Conklandi: Vote for me for a sober future.

Before Sho can ask about cannolis Conklandi marches out of the studio, saluting our great Thalassian flag. Drums can be heard in the background... or is that an earthquake? Why is the studio shaking? It adruptly stops as the next candidate drops down from the ceiling.

Sho: Alright, thanks for agreeing to do this interview! All of these questions are citizen submitted and may 🅱️e followed up towards the end. Would you like to open with a statement for our voters?

Monkelandd: Hi! I'm Monkelandd, and I'm running for Prime Minister. I'd just like to make one thing clear a🅱️out my campaign: I you care a🅱️out Thalassia, DO NOT VOTE FOR ME. I would 🅱️e a god awful PM and would pro🅱️a🅱️ly destroy Thalassia. Or I might do a good job, who knows?
My team are: Grey county for deputy and Nationific is my 🅱️ri🅱️ery official. If you indicate voting for me, he will 🅱️ri🅱️e you not to.
So, I'd just like to leave you with this: DO NOT VOTE MONKELANDD!

Sho: Our first question touches on experience. This comes from Zentata: “Do you feel as though you have enough experience to properly act as the pm?”

Monkelandd: Well, I am fairly experienced in government, 🅱️ut I have played literally no role in anything and any more of my involvement will surely destroy Thalassia's government as we know it.

Sho: A living WMD? Scawy! Our next question comes from Jorge Hispanian union: “How different will 🅱️e your government, if you win?” I suppose this is your chance to give us a preview of our governmental Armageddon!

Monkelandd: Well, idk, coz i dont plan to 🅱️e in government, 🅱️ut if i do win, (god for🅱️id), it will 🅱️e very different. Thalassia will be anarchy, like the purge but with more potatoes. i really 🅱️elieve that i am the wrong choice for thalassia. a monkelandd government would 🅱️e pacificageddon 2: electric 🅱️oogaloo, but as i said, with more potatoes

Sho is tickled with the shot at Pacifica. We cut away to Pacifica, which has once again 🅱️een a🅱️andoned. Or should we say A🅱️🅱️addon’d?

Sho: These next questions come from Conklandi: “What are your policies on alternative energy?” and “How are you going to improve Thalassia's perks?”

Monkelandd: On the alt energy thing, nuclear power is a great idea! its the first step to nuclear fallout! cherno🅱️yl style!

ok, so cards are collecti🅱️les, 🅱️ut im thinking 🅱️igger. if we want to 🅱️ri🅱️e people, ask Nationific! hes my 🅱️ri🅱️ery official and does a great jo🅱️ 🅱️ri🅱️ing peeps not to vote for me. well done him!

Sho makes a notion to the camera man to pan up so the viewers don’t see the loads of cards falling out of her pocket.

Sho: I suppose we could flip our regional anchor over to reflect our new mushroom cloud status! I, for one, welcome our new fungal doom!

A hot 🅱️utton topic this election! This was su🅱️mitted by Grey county, Federated Commonwealth of Selstville, and even yourself Monkelandd, and further expanded on 🅱️y the latter.

“What are your opinions on a legislature? 🅱️icameral or unicameral? Parties or not? Etc.”

You also asked other candidates if they “plan on any constitutional changes?” Do you?

Monkelandd: right the 🅱️iggie, legislature is a yes, definitely. on the issue of houses i go oprah on yer'.go crazy! 🅱️icameral, tricameral, dodecameral, whatever! the more the merrier, eh? with parties, i say i would. parties would 🅱️e extremely destructive and im all for destruction. go mushroom clouds!

on the constitution, i say, get rid of it! who needs a constitution, when we can have anarcho-royalism, with Sho as the queen and me as supreme 🅱️eing of all thalassia, nay, the world. so my only change would be a🅱️olishing it.

We cut away for a short commercial. As we cut 🅱️ack in, Sho and Monkelandd are sharing tea and discussing the joys of the upcoming purge, o🅱️livious that they are live.

Sho: Would you like one lump or t...

Sho is suddenly aware of their situation and in a moment of panic yeets the evidence off the ta🅱️le.

Sho: Ahem! S-So.. where were we? Ah yes! Here’s a 🅱️rief reprieve from our long winded questions: Arenado wants to know why each candidate is running. So what is your reason?

Monkelandd: well, in my dispatch, i put it like this: on the discord i was talking to Nationific a🅱️oot the election. and then i said:
"if aren goes uncontested i will run for pm" aren did not go uncontested (and decided not to run anyway), owl is stepping up for the fight (hoot hoot). 🅱️ut i thought may🅱️e i could run, for the memes. so i aksed da peeps on discord and they said i should run. also, i'd like to add, i am running for the hell of it. why not you know? YOLO and all that

Sho puts on a serious face, to distract from the incident from just moments ago. It isn’t working.

Sho: Our final three questions are:

The Monarch’s responsi🅱️ility is the security/moderation of the region, advising of the elected government, and the maintenance of our offsite properties. The WA Delegate has sole control over our WA affairs/programs and communications with WA alliances. What do you see as the responsi🅱️ilities of the Prime Minister?

Will you be creating any ministries not required by the Constitution? What will be their purpose be and how will they function?

Cannolis?

Monkelandd: the prime minister's goal is to take over thalassia and turn it into a hellhole. i would a🅱️olish the WAD (sorry Zentata) and become supreme 🅱️eing, as i said before. everyone would be trapped in the region and Sho would 🅱️e kept as queen, as long as she complied with the supreme 🅱️eing's rules. if you don't sho, idk what ill do
yeah, awful. dont vote for me.

i will ditch all ministries as part of my 'a🅱️olish the constitution' thing. so, no MoR, no MoAA, just pure anarcho-royalism, just how we hate it.

Sho: I mean, so long as I get to keep a pretty ro🅱️e and get my daily cannoli I can be quite the regional mascot~

Monkelandd: sure! Also cannoli = yum. you'll get a crown too! (not as 🅱️ig as mine obv)

Sho: Oooooh shiny!

That’s all we have for you for now. It’s 🅱️een a pleasure! Do you have a closing statement for our voters?

Monkelandd: yes! DO NOT VOTE FOR ME! I cannot stress this enough. please, you saw what will happen!

also, remember: free potatoes, spam only, a mandatory hourly government- sponsered rickroll, the a🅱️olishment of non-junk food, communication only through rick (astley or sanchezz) quotes aaaand...
no more 'b's, just 🅱️s

🅱️efore Sho gets out her goodbyes, a buzzing is heard in the distance, rapidly moving closer. Oh no. The clap of those dummy thicc 🅱️s has alerted the 🐝s! They’ve carried off Monkelandd, leaving 🐝hind a trail of de🐝ris and smooth jazz CDs.

Sho: Alright, thanks for agreeing to do this interview! All of these questions are citizen submitted and may be followed up towards the end. Would you like to open with a statement for our voters?

Owl: Yes, thank you very much. I wanted to say that I have been here in Thalassia for some time and it is my desire to help the region as much as possible and that no matter the outcome of the election that desire won't go away. I will be here ready to contribute.

Sho: That’s a great way to start this off, especially as one of our most senior candidates!

Our first question touches on something you already mentioned in your platform- experience. This comes from Zentata: “Do you feel as though you have enough experience to properly act as the pm?”

_{Artistic rendering of Owl by Meritagnia.}

Sho: You certainly have come a long way since those elections!

Our next question comes from Jorge Hispanian union: “How different will be your government, if you win?”

Owl: I intend in giving more responsibilities to the Ministry of Recruitment, making it responsible for recruiting and training people for civil service. Other than that I want to restructure the ministries organization in order to make it easier to work causing it be more productive and decreasing stress.

It won't be different in structure, the ministries will be the same as they previously were under Prime Minister Arenado.

Sho: Productivity is definitely needed in NS governments to keep a region running!

These next questions come from Conklandi: “What are your policies on alternative energy?” and “How are you going to improve Thalassia's perks?”

Owl: The first question seems to be related to the regional roleplay. The government does not make decisions of that kind over what happens in the regional rp. Now if you allow me to joke, I hope Max Barry has his servers environmentally friendly.

I'm gonna be honest, I never gave much thought of how a rewards program could be made, other than the already existing ThalassiEndos, which our WAD Zentata made where some of the nations get rewarded. I also believe culture had a rewards program that also uses cards as prizes. However, I do not think it's realistic to have a card farm and daily rewards. Other than using cards as rewards, maybe a simple ranking list based on an amount of points would also work as a way to handle it.

Sho: A hot button topic this election! This was submitted by Grey county, Federated Commonwealth of Selstville and Monkelandd, and further expanded on by the latter.

“What are your opinions on a legislature? Bicameral or unicameral? Parties or not? Etc.”

Monkelandd also wants to know if “you plan on any constitutional changes?”

Owl: On a legislature I think is what would be the best and keeping the direct democracy systems we currently have in place to allow any WA citizen to propose any new legislation. I think it’s a great idea, until now new legislation as always been authored by members of the cabinet, this will change that.

On the political parties matter, I don’t think they are needed and could cause both divide and also lead to aggressive partisan politics. Besides that, real life party ideologies don’t exactly fit nationstates like politics.

I do plan on constitutional changes, if I want to make changes to the government structure in order to improve its productivity I think I should make some changes to the constitution related to that to ensure that those vital changes will continue on.

Sho: Here’s a brief reprieve from our long winded questions:

Arenado wants to know why each candidate is running. So what is your reason?

Owl: As I have said in the start, I’m here to give what I can offer to Thalassia. I’m running to make my contribution and help our community grow stronger and better.

It has already grown a lot, but there’s still some room for improvement and I know that I can make it happen.

Sho: The Monarch’s responsibility is the security/moderation of the region, advising of the elected government, and the maintenance of our offsite properties. The WA Delegate has sole control over our WA affairs/programs and communications with WA alliances. What do you see as the responsibilities of the Prime Minister?

Will you be creating any ministries not required by the Constitution? What will be their purpose be and how will they function? If not, you mentioned your intent to keep Arenado’s MoR and MoAA. Will they see any significant changes you haven’t already mentioned?

Owl: The responsibilities of the Prime Minister aren’t as specific as those of the Monarch or the WA Delegate. The Prime Minister has a role in the security/moderation of the region alongside the monarch, but also in handling foreign affairs, organising culture events and developing the region itself. It’s not as specific as quite a few of these responsibilities are delegated to the minister that the Prime Minister appoints.

As of right now, I don’t think I will be creating any new ministry not required by the constitution. I intend on having the new culture events inside the MoC. I mentioned i intent on keeping the ministries that Arenado created, they are essential in my view of what the government needs. I don’t think I will be changing the MoAA but as I have mentioned in my campaign I intend on adding the responsibility of recruiting and training people for civil service to the Ministry of Recruitment.

Sho: Alright Owl, final question. Cannolis?

Owl looks mildly taken back but answers coolly.

Owl:I don’t believe I’ve eaten them.

Sho is sad for Owl. Time to send him some rep on the Regional discord so he may have one. This is totally not a plug. Do not @Sho, Owl does that enough.

Sho: Thanks so much for interviewing with us Owl! Would you like to make a closing statement?

Owl: This elections is meant to decide who will be serving as the next prime minister. We are having joke candidates for the first time, I don’t just see satire in their campaigns, I see people with potential to contribute to Thalassia. They may not think of themselves as prime minister material, but they are worth more than they think. I wish all other candidates good luck in the election. Thank you for interviewing me.

And with a final hoot, he is gone. Probably off to buy a Meritagnian glutetarte. Let’s hope for his sake they are out of wasabi!

_{Flag of 3nd German Republic}

Sho: Alright, thanks for agreeing to do this interview! All of these questions are citizen submitted and may be followed up towards the end. Would you like to open with a statement for our voters?

3GR: My Fellow Thalassian’s I come to you today to offer you safety. To give hope and provide security to make your region the safest.

Sho: Our first question touches on experience. This comes from Zentata: “Do you feel as though you have enough experience to properly act as the pm?”

3GR: My answer for that question is that I don’t think I do have enough experience to do it properly I mainly ran so that way when I do get more experience in the future so I can run and know what to do. I really didn’t think I would win against owl so I just used the election to see what it’s like.

Sho: Hey, that’s pretty smart. Elections are a good learning experience for sure!

Our next question comes from Jorge (Hispanian union: “How different will be your government, if you win?”

3GR: I think it would be mostly the same except for more focus on defense because what if a raid happens.

Sho: We’ll revisit that in a couple of later questions!

These next questions come from Conklandi:“What are your policies on alternative energy?” and “How are you going to improve Thalassia's perks?”

3GR: Well for the first question I think oil/gas should still be used but should be switched out over time for reusable energy like wind or water.

But that second question confuses me as I do not know what these perks are.

Sho: Understandable!

A hot button topic this election! This was submitted by Grey county, Federated Commonwealth of Selstville, and Monkelandd, and further expanded on by the latter.

“What are your opinions on a legislature? Bicameral or unicameral? Parties or not? Etc.”

Monkelandd also wants to know if “you plan on any constitutional changes?”

3GR: I think there should be party’s because Thalassia is a region of democracy (if that makes any sense), but yes I think we should have party’s

Sho: Calling back to earlier, I have a question from Wymondham: “You call for a Thalassian armed forces, do you have any experience in R/D?”

3GR: No. I’ve only been in the MoFA as a Junior ambassador.

Sho: Fair enough 😄

Here’s a brief reprieve from that.

Arenado wants to know why each candidate is running. So what is your reason?

3GR: I’m just trying to learn for the future

Sho: I can respect that, and I think Thalassia can too.

Here are our last three questions:

“The Monarch’s responsibility is the security/moderation of the region, advising of the elected government, and the maintenance of our offsite properties. The WA Delegate has sole control over our WA affairs/programs and communications with WA alliances. What do you see as the responsibilities of the Prime Minister?”

“Will you be creating any ministries not required by the Constitution? What will be their purpose be and how will they function? If not, you mentioned your intent to keep Arenado’s MoR and MoAA. Will they see any significant changes you haven’t already mentioned?”

“Cannolis?”

3GR: First question: The prime minister leads the work of the cabinet of Ministers.

Second question: No new ministries.

Third question: I’m not sure if I would change them.

Sho: Thanks so much 3GR! That’s all the questions we have for you. Would you like to give a closing statement?

3GR: Security. Strength. Prosperity. This is why I should be your next Prime Minister.

Before he can continue his statement, he is head butted off the stage by a goat. Is that the smell of dairy delight? Is that.. the Milk Man?! (Don’t ask your mom. She may know a milkman, but not the Milk Man. The milkman looks a lot like you. Don’t think about that too much.

It is! It is the Milk Man! From Tidewater to Thalassia, he has spread the word about yald goat milk.

This candidate had no opening statement so we dive directly into questions. Due to his busy schedule of getting milk out to a sad milkless world, this interview was brief..

Sho: Our first question touches on experience. This comes from Zentata: “Do you feel as though you have enough experience to properly act as the pm?”

Yaldia: I have served as an ambassador to Sonindia for many months, as well as in the ministry of culture. And i also have experience as Vice president, President and Co Founder of Tidewater. So i do feel that if i am actually elected i would be able to properly manage the government.

Sho: Our next question comes from Jorge (Hispanian union): “How different will be your government, if you win?”

Yaldia: Most of the government structure will remain the same, however i will make strong efforts to strengthen our culture by the promotion of milk, and its many possibilities. The main focus will be on our culture.

Sho: I can see the “got milk?” signs everywhere. The propaganda. Those goats won’t know what hit’em!

These next questions come from Conklandi: “What are your policies on alternative energy?” and“How are you going to improve Thalassia's perks?”

Yaldia: 1: While the idea of nuclear energy is intresting and most likely our best current solution, i think using extensive research we can pursue milk based solutions to energy production. Similar to damns, however using artificial milk rivers, which allows us to avoid the negative effects of normal river damns. However there may be other milk based solutions that may be visually similar to reverse butter churning. I hope to assemble an elite research squad for tasks like this.

2: I think we should give away cards as RP rewards, but i think we should create a system where you can purchase rewards such as cards or banners, using a credit system of milk units. They would be gifted as RP rewards, but can be exchanged between players for banners, cards, and other items.

Sho: Cards? Credit? Calcium? Wow!

A hot button topic this election! This was submitted by Grey county, Federated Commonwealth of Selstville, and Monkelandd, and further expanded on by the latter.

“What are your opinions on a legislature? Bicameral or unicameral? Parties or not? Etc.”

Monkelandd also wants to know if “you plan on any constitutional changes”?

Yaldia: i think a unicameral system of the dairy council would be able to fit this highly demanded role well. I think we should vote on new members of this council, which will then vote on submitted proposals. We should be transparent whenever we can.

No major ones, but i think there are ways we can expand the personal freedoms of our citizens.

Sho: Arenado wants to know why each candidate is running. So what is your reason?

Yaldia: Because i think a milkier thalassia is a better thalassia. It will take our already great culture and greatly add to it.

Sho: The Monarch’s responsibility is the security/moderation of the region, advising of the elected government, and the maintenance of our offsite properties. The WA Delegate has sole control over our WA affairs/programs and communications with WA alliances. What do you see as the responsibilities of the Prime Minister?

Yaldia: I think the Prime Minister is responsible for the organization and management of the government, as well as being the true head of state.

Sho: Will you be creating any ministries not required by the Constitution? What will be their purpose be and how will they function?

Yaldia: No, but i do plan on creating many important discord features related to our dairy filled culture, meaning ministry of culture will become even more important.

Sho: Cannolis?

The Milk Man did not answer this question. It seems the carton is calling him. It is time for him to leave once again to smite those who use plant-based false milks.

Sho: Fantastic. Thank you for interviewing with us, Yaldia! Would you like to make a closing statement?

Yaldia: Just remember this is a joke campaign, so you probably shouldn't actually vote for me. But do not misunderstand and think that is how every campaign will be, this is probably going to be my only joke one.

His goat carries him off to the Milky Way. Maybe we’ll see him again some day.
