Horace Thassarion - A Maership Manifesto

 

 

As most citizens are aware, I Horace Thassarion, have been given the priviledge of running for Maer. Many of you may have seen or even read the speech I gave in Kaldwin Square, but a Saint’s Day ago. However, I believe that it would be more prudent for one to express the pledges and political beliefs in writing. This shall allow myself to go into more detail.

 

I - Quality of Aleksandrian Roads

II- A New, Reformed City Watch

III-Festivities and Celebrations

IV-Welfare Reforms & Social Provisions

V- Religion

VI- A Promise

 

I - Quality of Aleksandrian Roads

In the Campaign, I have had the privilege of meeting several of the respectable citizens of our great city. All of who cried out for better quality of pathways and roads leading through the city. It is but a trail of mud, writhe with human excrements. When the weather takes a turn for the worse, the rainwater congeals with this mud, turning our major roads and streets into a swamp like bog. I have pledge to install high quality paving, payed for by the City Government and Authorities. In turn, this shall make our city far more aesthetically pleasing to the eye, and allow citizens to walk safely without fear of falling or losing a shoe. Carts will also benefit, as they will no longer become stuck in the mud.

 

II- A Reformed City Watch

 

Our glorious Armed Forces are the one who face the task of defending the city from external and internal threats. Though should they have to deal with the petty crimes of the thieves and vagabonds? I think not. Therefore, under my Maership, I intend to establish a well organised and led, City Watch Militia. These will come from patriotic citizens who care for their King and City. Those who prove themselves to have competent leadership and prowess, shall be selected to lead.

 

III- Festivities and Celebrations

 

Festivals and Celebrations are imperative, when it is important to keep citizens pleased. In turn they shall attract forces from outside of our great Nation and expand our population. Courland is a place for all. It is high time we celebrated our victory, young culture and national identity, as a Kingdom, officially and together.

 

IV - Welfare Reforms & Social Provisions

 

Despite our prestige, there are still those who sleep on our streets, cold and without a bed.  As Maer, I would assist in the eradication of poverty. I pledge to give free food to all citizens of Aleksandria. This will require farmers, generating more employment opportunities for those who are struggling in our society. I would like to use some of my own land for this. Within Alexandria, we shall build food banks and soup kitchens, providing the poor and orphaned with a place to dine and stay, in warmth. The price of housing seems to only rise. Therefore, It would seem obvious for us to decrease the pricing. To give all Aleksandrians and Courlandians, the chance to own their own homes, within the capital. When the time is right and there is a high demand for housing we shall build more. The tax rate shall also be negotiated with our great Monarch Tobias I, seeing a decrease. The welfare and happiness of the people is a pillar of our realm. Without it we would see instability and decline.I pledge to care for all citizens, rich, poor, well fed or famished.

 

V - Religion

 

The Faith is also very important to me. I have banished the heresy of the Orenian Church. Life now feels purer and far more simple, being aware that you follow the one true religion. A religious revolution has swept over our lands, seeing more people convert than ever before. I urge all apostates and agnostics to convert. Under my Maership, I intend to promote the faith. I shall work hard to ensure that a service is conducted every Saint’s Week, with baptisms conducted within the sacred pool, in the Palace. Their High Holiness's are good people, who intend to save all from the fiery sulphurs of hell, by bringing all into the light of the Lord.

 

VI - A Promise

I do hope that all who read this see through the false and malicious propaganda created by my political opponents. All those we know me are aware, that I am a devout man who wants to implement real change and better the lives of everyone. Surely a Knight should be true to the oath he took by defending the Kingdom militarily. The young De Savin is also far too inexperienced. I promise to implement this manifesto, with all my power. My strong friendship with our Monarch will allow me to welcome these changes and reforms far more quickly than other candidates. I thank you for taking the time to read this document.
