Although Marx and the alliance have different values we have a common goal, make a truly great and thriving Germany. Perhaps were not that different.

Perhaps you are speaking of some other Marx? The Karl Marx that has been rampaging through Europe and reducing governments to anarchy seems to have very little desire to see Germany anything other than another pile of squabbling traitors.

-- Michael von Hohenzollern
 
Or maybe you don't know the real Marx

If I may interject, being from a shipbuilding family, it is no secret that some powers - Britain included - are retrofitting wooden ships of the line with steam power. Germany must do likewise; undesirable as it may be to face the attendant risk of fire, a ship which can sail in a flat calm or directly against the wind can defeat or escape any sailing ship as she pleases. I submit to the Reichstag that, with reinforced prows, such ships might also be fitted with rams.

((This of course has no game mechanical effect, but is a real historical oddity; from the 1840s a number of wooden ships were so fitted, simply because the alternative of not doing so was worse. Rams were extremely popular (and almost entirely ineffective) in the 19th century.))

More Jacobinism. Marx's ideas are nothing but violent, dangerous regressive policies designed to grind nations into mincemeat.
Stattholter de Spinoza
 
Accepting any of Marx's ideas is sheer craziness. The man is a corrupt imbecile and unworthy to even stand in Germany.
MARX DELENDA EST!
-Stattholter Josef de Spinoza
 
To those who defend the subversive and deplorable actions of Katl Marx and his associates, may I ask the question: Is kidnapping an innocent child for political leverage or throwing nations into chaos or anarchy justified? I think not, gentlemen! Anyone who defends these cowardly acts is himself a coward and a traitor, and should be investigated by the Gendarmerie!

~ Friedrich von Hohenstaufen, Foreign Minister
 
Von Schwaben, I suggest you investigate the Prinz, or at least try to get these mad ideas out of his head.
Remember, my Prinz, we are doing this for your own good.

I think it will be hard to Herr Spinoza to take out foolish ideas and put in new ones, and the Prinz may think as he wishes, as long as he meet some consequences for his actions.

We sit here bantering back and forth about Marxism, when we should be focusing on Germany's might.

I fully agree with the Chancellor. The political opinions of 8 year olds (soon to be 9) are not worth the Reichstag's time.

But when your nephew becomes a man, he can become very dangerous for the people and the nation, with his marxist thoughts.

His actions aren't what I like, but his ideas are what Make him great
