Politically, I think I've moved to a tricameral senate with three different chambers for corporations, technocrats, and young nationalists who will lead the country.

Oh hell, I might consider being Catholic. Princes I'm sorry for bullying you.

On that note, how the hell did the Scots-Irish end up being so degenerate? You guys seem very lax on certain standards and things.

I'm not sorry at all.

I have. One wonders if you're Polish since Polish people are by far the most practical Catholics out there. At least from my experiences.

By practical do you mean "pragmatic" or "practicing"?
I have noticed that a wildly disproportionate number of highly observant Catholics in the US have Polish blood, although the same could be said for Cajuns, Mexicans, and dozens of other groups.

How would the technocrats be selected? How would the executive work?

Both. Very devout but with pragmatism that rivals their protestant German neighbors.

A technocracy must be responsive enough to innovations and market environments. Better make it rotating or highly adaptable, if not have fun stagnating into the GDR.

I've definitely noticed the first, both from experience with their American descendants and from the statistics about their country(a higher church attendance rate than Utah... Woot woot. Unfortunately they let the EU bully them about their internal policies). I haven't really noticed the second to the same extent, but I can definitely see it.

Yeah, my 4th great grandfather on my mom's side came from Prussia and arrived in America in 1864 with his 3 kids and wife.

Now my dad's side has been living in Kentucky for a century or so as far as I have researched.

Glorious Catholic Scotsman. Top that.

The door is always open. Ask this guy. That said, such a decision is not one to be made lightly. If you're serious, I'll do what I can to aid your catechesis.

We've been treated like crap since Ulster. Maybe some of my more rural kin finally internalised the slurs and whatnot.

I appreciate the offer but the comment was in jest.

tbh, I really liked the Ulstermen and the Orange order. Those guys and Ian Paisley were pretty great.

Well they managed to pick themselves up quite nicely after communism. They have among the strongest and robust economies as well as a military that is formidable and one worthy of praise.

Poland is a model Catholic nation with high degrees of work ethic and a knack for practical, pragmatic means of innovation (tech sector is beautiful in Poland) as well as being thrifty and smart about investments for development.

I'd also add that Poland in the EU is excellent so long as it's in favor of Poland (manufacturing and less trade barriers), and gives more access for tourists that give a boost in their service industry as well.

Ian Paisley was an ass. Based Otto gave him what for.
