To:Director Shjoraski
From:Pierre Henri IV

I have found your reasoning absurd and ignorant, as the Emperor himself's mostly Québecois himself(out of 14 previous monarchs,only 4 have married one with Korean decent,the last one being his Great-Grandfather),educated and lived in the Québécois style/way with Korean influences,and that his Queen is a Jewish Canadian. Also, we would like to acknowledge that despite being labeled as a 'French' nation,only about 46% are French. The other 48% are mainly of Korean,First Nation or British decent.
Sincerely
His Imperial Majesty the Pierre Henri IV
