How dare you politicize the death of a Reichstag member, you impudent ape.
Who is this?
von Altmark looks around at the various offended faces due to his statement.
No, I am quite serious, who is this person and what has he done to warrant such a title? I have never heard him prior to his death.
Sir, it appears you have been eating too much fish.
The Minister of the Interior has spoken. I order an investigation into the death of Herr Victor using the powers vested in me as Commander of the Gendarmerie. Further investigation details shall be submitted later.Otto Kant, as Commander of the Gendarmerie, it is your job to conduct an investigation into the death of Herr Victor.
I order an investigation, immediately.
Not that you weren't going to investigate, as is your duty.
~Johannes Carile, Minister of the Interior
((I think I need to invest in some more bodyguards.))
((You might want to consider having a list of all those 65 written out since I highly doubt most of the player here could name them all. It'd be hard for the Head of the Gendarmerie to investigate if they don't know the states. We might also have to consider where the players are placed. For example, if most players originate from a few specific states, it would be a lot easier to find the culprit if the Head of the Gendarmerie focused on those states.))

Perhaps I can help clarify. Herr Victor was a noted federalist, and one of the first - and, certainly, one of the loudest and clearest - to call for the establishment of a federalised government of the Republic. He was one of the founding members of the Bundespartei, and - though he may not have been as vocal and argumentative as some of the Stadtholders we have with us today - he was very clearly instrumental in shaping public discourse towards matters of minority representation and devolution of power, culminating recently in the establishment of the Italian Parliament. It is - I gather - for this reason that Herr Liberator might regard him as the "greatest man in Germany".
But though we came from different political positions, Herr Victor and I often found common ground through our mutual interest in the region of Italy. The two of us collabarated on the Minorities Bill)back in 1878. More recently, Herr Victor was the Bundespartei candidate for President of Italy - and had a handful of seats fallen differently, he would have been President of Italy, and I would have been the one stood to one side of the platform and facing the assassins' bullets.
So, though I would not have described Herr Victor as a close personal friend, his sudden death has come as a serious shock to me. And I cannot bear to hear his name banded about as some sort of faceless backbencher. If certain members of the Reichstag do not recognise the name Emmanuel Victor, then - to my mind - that signifies an overly parochial mindset on the part of the members in question, rather than some deficiency of notability on Herr Victor's part. If he spent more time with his constituents than flinging insults or fish across the Reichstag hall, then I do not see that as some kind of deep moral failing.
Nevertheless, today is indeed a sad day for Italy and for the Republic. I wholeheartedly support the calls for a thorough investigation, and hope that the perpetrators can be swiftly brought to justice.
Furthermore, I believe the Greeks need to be taught their place and call for the Minister of the Interior to bring a motion to the conclave for Martial law to be enforced throughout the Greek Region for 1 year.The Treason Act
All men found guilty of High Treason will be hung by the neck until dead
I must join the varied and passionate calls for the finding of traitor who ordered the assassination of the Heer,Victor he and I were often on the opposite side of many issues but he was nonetheless a loyal and passionate German who deserved respect from all of us for his work I hope his assassins are found and hung and that his soul rests in peace. Furthermore at this time I will reintroduce one of my older pieces of legislation to ensure proper justice is done to the perpetrator of this heinous crime
Furthermore, I believe the Greeks need to be taught their place and call for the Minister of the Interior to bring a motion to the conclave for Martial law to be enforced throughout the Greek Region for 1 year.
On a happier note I wish to thank Heer Chancellor for the appointment to the Minority Commission and will endeavour to bring the Commission's policies more in line with traditional, conservative, and proper views on the minorities of Germany.
I would like to express my farewell to my colleagues of many years Fritz von Hohenzollern and Friedrich von Hohenstaufen wish him the best in their future endeavours. Further I welcome Konrad Friedrich von Hohenzollern to the conclave and congratulate him on his new son.
Finailly we cannot leave our allies without help and permit their land to be held by foreigners the Foreign Minister must call for war with Norway Both to return our allies land and to ensure that never again the Norwegian menace will be able to spite her neighbors.
