A Letter From Paris

I announce that I wish to join the Progressive Society. Obviously my participation will be limited while I serve as Ambassador, but I try my best to remain well involved.

-Pavel Pištora, Ambassador to France, Deputy for Bohemia
 
Popa cracks a massive grin when seeing von Marius-Parsifal

Herr von Marius-Parsifal, I am glad you have finally arrived to the Chambers. It is nice to meet von Stroheim's only competition in Carnolia.

Biography: Councilor Rufus von Treidich was born in Vienna in 1800, the eldest son of an Austrian officer in the Hapsburg Army named Karol Treidich. In 1822, Treidich went to the Martin Luther University of Halle-Wittenberg, where he studied Law. Treidich graduated in 1827, the same year of his father’s death. Treidich then went back to Vienna in 1828, where he practiced law in a private firm with his two younger brothers. In 1831, Treidich first became involved in union cases. In 1834, Treidich left the Austrian Empire for the United States. He lived in New York City until 1840, becoming a leader of unions for German Immigrant communities. In 1840, Treidich returned to Vienna and resumed his union activities there. He was married in 1843 to Sabina Tomoshevka, daughter of a Slovenian manufacturer. Mr. and Mrs. Treidich remained in Vienna until the Revolution broke out in 1848. Fearing violence, the Treidichs fled the country for Naples, where they lived until the end of the war. Treidich had twin daughters in 1849.

Treidich returned to Vienna in 1851, resuming his leadership of the labor unions, this time expanding his activities to unions in Budapest and Vienna. Under the new government, Treidich was elected first to a deputy position as an independent liberal in 1856. When the Civil War broke out, Treidich fled the country again for Naples, returning afterwards. Treidich had a son in 1857, named Karol. Treidich next assumed the post of a Councilor of Vienna in 1860, joining as an Independent. He remained relatively tight-lipped through the dramatic events of the ensuing months, until he built up the confidence to begin to express himself in the Council Chambers, first properly speaking out in 1861.

((Thanks, take care all!))

Ah, welcome to you Pane Treidich, I'm sure we will work together in the future. I must ask, what was it like over in America?

Pavel Pištora, Ambassador to France, Deputy for Bohemia
 
Gentlemen,

This Progressive Society sounds like a good way to express myself amongst like-minded individuals. I will join the Society.

Councillor Von Treidich, as a union leader, surely you are concerned about the position of the working class in our Federation? The Social Democrat Party, of which I am a member, supports and defends the rights of the lower classes. I hope you will consider joining our party.

- Ritter Ervin von Braunschweig, Freiherr von Durz, Councillor for Albania (SDP)
 
Its nice to meet you von Treidich, though I wonder why you came back here after going to america, havent you heard of the death rates for Councilors in the Federation?

Frydryk says sarcasticly.

((All Hail to me, who persuaded my good friend into joining. Of course I had to bribe him a little to make him a Socialist.))

Welcome Comrade Treidich, as a proud supporter of unions in the Federation I am very pleased you have decided to join us.
 
I thank you all for your great hospitality!
I am glad to be back in The Federation at so auspicious a time as this.
Allow me to assure you Herr Augustyniak, that in America, the Italians made the death rate still higher. *chuckle*

Herr von Braunschweig, I thank you for your offer, however I have resolved to say neither yes nor no to you at the present moment. I feel now that it is rash of me to restrict myself to a single party affiliation- at least until I have tested the waters.

I would also like to Support Nationalization, as my opening action. I trust that I shall offend no individual personally with this decision, as I am acting merely upon the will of my electorate.
I also trust that in the coming months, we can all work together, as rational individuals.
~Councilor Rufus von Treidich

Councillor von Treidich, I do not believe that act to be open to voting at the moment. You may declare your support for it if you wish.
 
that reminds me I vote NO for nationalization.

- Frydryk Augustyniak, Councilor of Silesia
 
I apologize for my choice of language. How gauche of me.
You'll find I've amended my previous statement.
((Thanks for the heads up!))
Thank you,

~Rufus von Treidich
 
I would also like to join the progressive society. The socialists must work together if we are to hope to cause change.
-Aetios Spiros, Councilor of Crete (SDP)
 
I shall also join the Progressive Society and will begin preparations for the upcoming convention in Milan.

~ Silvestro Marconi, President of and Councillor for Lombardia
 
((Missed so much... Sorry guys, I probably can't play this anymore. I might be back when I have more time, but as of right now Col. Felix will have to retire :glare: Been great guys! Oh and hey, don't you ever remember the salzburg/herman legacy! :p ))
