THE CITIZEN’S VOLUNTEER OUTFIT Protecting our rights to GOD, capitalism, and Parliamentary representation The United Federalist Party advocates for the good-will of individuals, capitalism, and the right to be represented in Parliament.

[!] Following the civil unrest in the Imperial capital, agitated legislators from various different parties in the Imperial Parliament convened. They quickly issued a missive to all residents of the Empire. THE UNITED FEDERALIST PARTY 12th of Sigismund’s End, 1701 Following the 1701 Carolustadt By-Election, reactionary political demagogues established a cabal designed to undercut the grand legislative achievements of the Great Council of the Exalted Godfrey. The so-called Imperial Preservation Party stands to compromise the integrity of our public elections, instituted by His Imperial Majesty, Aurelius I. They stand to undermine the integrity of our legislative process, designed for the well-being of the Imperial constituency. They advocate for reviving abhorrently outdated ways of life, which we have long since abandoned due to their draconian nature. This, to us, is unacceptable. To maintain a legislature for the people, and by the people, numerous minority political parties have vowed to dissolve and formulate a single political merger, in order to combat this common enemy. The United Federalist Party shall uphold the values so graciously gifted to us by the Imperial Crown, such as the right to popular and fair representation in the Imperial legislature. For this reason, a bipartisan effort has been made to rebel against our new, common enemy, by any means necessary. We will work with those across the aisle in Parliament, but will always combat the despotic nature of the reactionary aristocratic traditionalists, otherwise known as R.A.Ts. They are political opportunists, incapable of representing the will of the peasantry class. THE UNITED FEDERALIST PARTY PLATFORM A strong belief in central powers of government. Bipartisanship and cooperation between heads of state and parliament. Opposition to Reactionary Aristocratic Traditionalism (R.A.T.s) Free-market capitalism as the fundamental system of growth and progression in the economy. Uphold Canonism as the culturally unifying component of our society. Education of the masses with a heavy emphasis on the sciences, the arts, and calculus. The right for all eligible citizens of the empire to vote in elections. Restructuring and consistent growth of culture, through public services and subsidies. The regeneration of economic prosperity across socioeconomic classes. Providing employment to any hard-working man or woman of the Empire who strives for one. Expand diplomatic relations within our foreign policy. Protecting the integrity of our elections. Strengthening immigration security. Recognize the Imperial Crown as the sole arbiter of political turmoil. Already holding numerous seats in Parliament, we will strive to compose a reliable base before the next election cycle -- but we require the help of you, the average citizen. We are a party composed of the worker, a party composed of the soldier, the doctor, the bartender, the banker, the clergy, and the administrator. We are a party of the people, and to the people, we make three promises; The United Federalist Party promises to. . . FIGHT to preserve your right to have a representative in the Imperial government. STRIVE to institute a newly functioning economy, in which meritocracy and capitalism can thrive. DEFEND our Empire against all enemies, foreign and domestic. And those are promises you can count on. In the near future, the UFP will release additional information, pertaining to the election of the newfound party’s leadership. We ask for your participation in local events leading up to future elections, to express your support for our Imperial values. We hope that all citizens of the Empire can embrace an optimistic outlook on the political climate going forward. As this notice concludes, we encourage you to advocate for your beliefs in the Imperial legislature, as is your right. GOD bless the Empire, and remember. . . DON’T FEED THE RATS

THE COMMON CIVIC PARTY Est. 7th of Horen’s Calling, 1687 = = =︱〡o〡︱= = = “Unitatis in populo” = = =︱〡o〡︱= = = TABLE OF CONTENTS WHO WE ARE WHAT WE DO OUR MANIFESTO Head of the Party: Rhys van Ruthern Chairman: Elizaveta WHO ARE WE? The COMMON CIVIC PARTY is a political party devoted to upholding and maintaining the human values which contribute to the cultural richness of our glorious Empire. We are defined by our civic duty, our undying loyalty to our king and nation, and the brotherly love we have for our people. We ARE the people; we are made up of everyday people. We are the Good Man for the Good People Party, the Common Man for the Common People Party, the Common Sense party! We are the party of Common Civics. WHAT DO WE DO? We the people, as a party, strive to achieve a stable economy that would benefit all citizens. We strive to honour and maintain diplomacy with our allies. We strive to achieve prosperity for the people. We strive for adherence to the tenets of GOD’s church, and fidelity to the Empire of Man. OUR MANIFESTO The COMMON CIVIC PARTY strives for a prosperous Empire and people -- dignified in work, by a strong and empowered economy, by the upholdment of human freedoms, and by the glorification of GOD -- through the embracement of the Empire’s cultural richness. Free Trade By protecting and promoting free trade between the vassals of the Empire, the CCP seeks to empower an active and strengthened economy. Lowering the taxation barriers on trade will increase and stimulate trade, while providing for an incentive for more trade. This reduction also increases output and employment by changing the conditions of which services and goods are supplied by supporting supply-side and free-market economics. Limited Imperial Spending By limiting the spending of the Imperial Administration and reducing the growth of government spending, we are delegating more power to the vassals and vassal subsidies. Reduce Tax Rates By reducing tax rates, we are stimulating your savings and stimulating investments for the benefit of the people. This reduction encourages jobs, and the livelihood of the domestic home. We plan to reduce taxes where we can, and give added benefits to where we can’t. Empowerment of Vassals By empowering vassals, we are delegating the regional and local military, as well as the regional and local knight orders, to better enforce the laws of the Empire which better represent the region. Limiting government regulations on vassals serves to make vassals better. More power to the vassals, in the end, helps to bolster the Empire. Better vassals make a better Empire. Broadening of Suffrage By the passing of legislation, we strive to admit and protect new charters across the Empire. This means more PEOPLE can have their voice when it comes to the very realm they live in. Better Lives We’re improving the lives of citizens by reducing trade, broadening suffrage, empowering vassals, supporting legislation that would protect travel within the empire, supporting legislation to end the drug trade in major cities, and gradually integrating minority groups and races to assimilate and equally contribute as citizens. = = =︱〡o〡︱= = =
