[IC/OOC] Azur Deutschland Q&A

✠ The Magische Rozenreich of Azur Deutschland ✠
Question & Answer

---

This is the Azur Deutschland Q&A thread. I will try to provide answers for both IC questions and OOC questions.
Please, keep in mind that I am a human being. If I don't answer questions right away, there is usually a reason.

[Sanghyeok]

"What influences policy?" Guten Abend, Fräulein Julienne und Fräulein Sylvia. I'm Cho Maiko, Committee head of the One Sky Movement, one of the political parties in our nation's parliament. In our nation, though much of the decision making process is left to elected representatives, Chairwoman Oomiya retains a great deal of power to wield as she wishes in passing laws, creating reform, and setting goals for our future. Some of these policies are brought to her attention by advisors or upper level government personnel, while others are of her own personal interest. I suppose the questions I would like to ask the two of you are related to power within Azur Deutschland. What is the degree of power you hold within the Azur Nationalist Party, and have there been instances where your beliefs have conflicted with the party? What influences what you decide to do with that power- are they personal desires and ideals or plans brought forth by your advisors? And what would happen if you and your sister have held opposing views on what is to be done? I look forward to your answers and wish you the very best Christmas and New Years. -One Sky Movement Committee Head Cho Maiko -ワンスカイ運動会長、 趙 真唯子

[Imperial-Octavia]

"You two may find this question slightly uncomfortable, but we feel that it is an important question to ask so that we can suss out the character of your state. As we understand it the government that preceded yours was less than friendly to multiple groups of minorities within its conquered territory, in fact, as far as we understand, they tried to exterminate many of them. After the two of you took over what was left of Germany, how exactly did you deal of the survivors of this 'Holocaust' and what did you do with it's perpetrators? We shall await your response."

Sylvia Lucienne Dellamorte

"Guten Abend, Fräulein.
A pleasure to meet you.

Your question is appreciated. Julienne and I are the top leads for the Azur Nationalist Party and for Azur Deutschland as a whole. This is much like the position of Führer in the previous party's leadership. Probably sounds bad, I know, but it was easier to restructure the party this way. As for conflict within the party, as I've mentioned, we restructured the party, leading to the creation of the Azur Nationalist Party. Therefore, new leaders were appointed. Most of whom are trusted friends. Once again, sounds bad, but I can say that our stance on things is a lot less radical than the previous party."

---

Julienne Victoria Dellamorte

"As for what influences our decisions... Well, it's a mixture of both personal desires and plans from our friends. Our main goal is to keep our homeland safe and secure. We've taken an isolationist stance and we've began to relax control on occupied territory. It's a long road, but we're hoping the world will ease soon enough with our leadership running Azur Deutschland...

For the last part, Sylvia and I rarely ever get into disagreements. Even when we do, it's more about trivial things, like clothing, and is usually playful. When it comes to leading the Fatherland, we are practically one mind. I hate to be dismissive about your question, but my sister and I disagreeing on the management of our home is a thought that I can't comprehend...

Once again, thank you for the questions.
We'd like to wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy New Years too."

Sylvia Lucienne Dellamorte

"It is an uncomfortable question, yes, but I do understand the importance.

Julienne and I, we've restructured the party to create the Azur Nationalist Party. No one from the previous party holds any position of power. In fact, most of them are jailed or executed by the Great Azur Court of Heaven, depending on their level of loyalty to the madman that made our precious Fatherland bleed so much. As for their victims... It's not much, but we've let the survivors go. The camps now serve as part of the Great Azur Court, which takes only the worst criminals, the largest population being the devout fanatics of the Soviet Union.

There's two main things we hate. The Soviets who bled our country dry and the previous Führer who let it happen."

Hello, I am King Elaminuus I of Elyrion, and I wish to ask the most important question that any of us could ask a different nation.

How does Azur Deutschland treat the environment around and inside it?

"We treat our Fatherland with care. We like to preserve the image of our home that we had during our childhood. Deutschland is a beautiful rose. It shall always be a beautiful, eternal rose."

[The Elyrion]

Thanks for the information, that's really good to hear.

Now I've asked a question, It would only be fair for the reverse to happen. If your interested, I'm running my own QnA so other nations can become more familiar with our wonderful country. Feel free to pop on in and ask away if you so choose.
Nevertheless, I am always willing to be friends with other nations that protect the natural sanctity of this beautiful planet.

[Voxija]

President Etor Gurraniz

There are certain prejudices that have existed for hundreds, of not thousands of years in Europe, and the rest of the world. I highly doubt a regime change, even one as drastic as Azur Deutschland's seems to be, could fully get rid of those bigoted beliefs in a majority of the population. A country needs education programs for that.

With my views in mind, I must inquire how the leaders of Azur Deutschland, the ideology of Azur Deutschland, and the people of Azur Deutschland feel about three minority groups: Romani, homosexuals, and Jews. There is a large minority of Romani in Voxija, I myself am in a loving homosexual relationship, and as I understand it, although the previous regime targeted many other groups, Jews were the main victim.

I have other questions. How do you feel about public education, or public healthcare? What percentage of your population has magic? What percentage of your population still feels loyalty to the previous regime? There will certainly be other questions, but I have a busy schedule, so they won't be asked now.

Sylvia Lucienne Dellamorte

"Ah, yes, your first point is rather true.

Though, being the absolute defender of Deutschland in its darkest time, in its most desperate hour of need, has its advantages.
The Hexen of Azur Deutschland may still hold some minor prejudices, they aren't an outright evil people. We, the Azur Rose Sisters, have set the example for the rest to follow, which seems to be going rather well for the most part. Seeing as how we've conquered mainland Europe, it's only fair to treat all those under our flag with care and respect. We have no qualms with any of the sets of people you've describe. For instance, even though we hate the Soviets with a passion, we don't outright hate Slavic people.

For your other questions, public education is rather important. An educated society is a lot better than an uneducated society. Public healthcare is also pretty important. We want the people of our nation to be safe and secure.
I... I'm afraid to say that I actually don't know what percentage of our population has magic. During the Second World War, it wasn't a huge portion. Though, we've been enhancing magical technology to the point where it even ordinary citizens can benefit from magic.
The percentage of those loyal to the previous regime is rather low and steadily dropping. As I've said before, being the savior of the country has that ability. The loyalty to the previous party was waning even before we entered the scene.

I hope that answers your questions well enough.
Thank you for taking the time to ask."

[The Elyrion]

Does Azur Deutschland have an embassy program? The Elyrion have broken their isolationist tendencies, and are looking for allies and friends in this brave new world.

Magical Lolis Twin Sisters Cute Julienne and Sylvia Delammorte

OwO ~ ❤️

Dear Cute Magical Lolis Twin Sisters Julienne and Sylvia Delammorte of Fascist Reactionary Magische Rozenreich of Azur Deutschland,

The actions taken by your twin magical lolis heads of state are complex at least. Our colleagues at the Communist Party of Feyrisshire have been discussing your leaders' actions. The member of the Communist Party of Feyrisshire's Central Policy Hall - Yuffie Rishagu have authorized me to ask.

We have been informed by the developments in Sanghyeok and Azur Deutschland. We were confused feeling really cute! by the increasing rapport of cute lolis Sylvia and Julienne and magical loli Chairwoman Oomiya Sakura. We have heard about how Chairwoman Omiya Sakura invited Sylvia and Julienne at a Tea Time Party and New Year Party with each other! OwO~

But what motivations and sentiments have spurred them to seek a friendship with Chairwoman Oomiya Sakura? What is the determining direction of Sylvia and Julienne in foreign policy? What sentiments they might have felt with the socialist proletarian nation of Sanghyeok - considering that Sylvia and Julienne's regime descended from the Nazi Germany and retained its nationalist stature, whereas Chairwoman Oomiya Sakura is a leader of a socialist nation - a Marxist-Leninist and a socialist! This despite the fact that we have heard that Sylvia and Julienne despises the socialist nation of the Soviet Union so dearly!

Of course, there might have been a practical angle between the relationship, but we have heard that the friendship between them have become so close and yuri truly close in camaraderie. Are we going to suppose that the relationships of Sylvia and Julienne are entirely apolitical and they choose relationships based on appearance and traits, like eating parfait, being a cute loli, playing with dolls or being skilled in magic?

"Chairwoman Oomiya has quite a lot of the same tastes that we have. It is, indeed, an apolitical relationship. After all, Julienne and I... We just... We want friends... Friends that can understand us... Friends that we never had during our childhood before the war...

To... actually talk about politics, well... Oomiya isn't an evil dictator like Stalin. Oomiya didn't try to destroy every inch of the home I love. I don't like socialism because of the Soviet Union. The Soviets were the ones who tried to rip the Fatherland asunder. I shouldn't... No... I won't hold her accountable for the feelings I get from the brutes who belonged to that... abhorrent state.

I have no reasons to hate Oomiya. She isn't like the monsters that tried to destroy my home. She isn't one of the monsters that tried to kill everything I love.

She's a nice, caring, supportive girl...

Oomiya truly is a wonderful friend... I don't want to betray this friendship... I don't want to lose this friendship..."

[Tsarstvo Alyaski]

Tsarina Ilyina Romanov of Tsarstvo Alyaski

Hello to Azur Deutschland.
We understand that, like ourselves your country has a rather large grudge against communism, especially the Soviet Union that used to exist. As our nation is the remnants of the old Russian Empire, I must ask what Azur Deutschland's views on the country that preceded the Soviet Union are.

And, a more personal question. You see, I'm the great - granddaughter of Tsar Nicholas II. He was a force that, unfortunately couldn't stop the tides of Communism. How do you view the Tsar in question, do you perhaps blame him for the eventual formation of the Soviet Union?

Sylvia Lucienne Dellamorte

"Greetings.

In my opinion, a White Russia would be better than a Red Russia. However, I know there were still conflicts between the Russian Empire and the German Empire. The events of the First World War come to mind. I can't say I'd be entirely supportive of the Russian Empire, but I feel like my distaste would be lessened. Though, to be honest, none of that would matter if Germany was still heavily threatened. White Russia or Red Russia, I would still hate them if they tried to break, ruin, and destroy my Fatherland.

I hope you understand my position. It's not one out of malice for the Russians. Rather, it's born from the actions they took.

My homeland is dear to me...

I think my opinion on Tsar Nicholas II can be seen as the same as my overall view of the Russian Empire. As for the other part of your question, I don't know whether I should blame him for the eventual rise of the Soviet Union..."

[Atheara]

This is a message from an unknown Minister in Atheara, i have several questions for Azur Deutschlands head of state:

1. What is your opinion on our Nation?
2. How does Housing in Azur Deutschland work?
3. Does Azur Deutschland have any disadvantages against other Nations you can point out? (Technological Advancement, Information Gathering, Industry, Food Production, etc. ?)

Take your time to answer these questions, have a good day/night.

"Thank you for your questions.

Unfortunately, I can't reliably answer your first question. This would be my first time seeing your nation, so I'm not sure how I'd feel about it. I'm trying to judge stuff less on first impressions.
I'm... also unsure how to answer your second question in a way that isn't disappointing... Um... Azur Deutschland's housing is generally no different than most countries.
Lastly, why would I want to point out my nation's weaknesses? Anyways, probably technological advancement, but magic takes care of that well enough."

Hello Sylvia Dellamonte & Julienne Dellamonte,

It is I, Ilitu, the Great Goddess Who Leads

[Pause here for applause: If possible, ensure it is joyous-sounding]

"I apologize for skipping all but the most perfunctory of pleasantries, I am currently being rushed about in a state of sad dismay. But, I have written to you such that I might have an answer to a question of Mine regarding your past. I have long wondered, without answer so much as I might recall, in regards to your parentage and the life you recollect having- that is, in regards to your life spent with them and during their lives. I understand you were young- it has already been explained to Me, countless times, that those mortals who are seven years of age or such are little more than animals, though I have not had the apparent displeasure of ever experiencing such behavior Myself. Regardless, in short My question is as as follows: what were your parents like, what was your life before your orphanage like, and... sincerely, I apologize if this might come off as blunt, but what was it like- again, so far as you might remember- experiencing the deaths of your parents while you were conversely entirely without harm?"

Thank you, and sublime blessings upon you in your future endeavors and efforts,

Ilitu, the Great Goddess Who Leads

[At this point, please ensure applause is heard: if possible, make it sound vaguely regretful and melancholic, such as might be heard at the departing of a great dignitary]

"Our parents... They were kind, loving, and caring... Mom would cook wonderful dinners. Dad would read us stories. We were precious to them. They were precious to us.
Life was... simple, but fun... There were no aches, no hardships for us. We lived in a peaceful field. There were beautiful flowers and trees. Whether during the day or at night, it was wonderful. Many times, Julienne and I would play outside, enjoying the breeze. Either playing with our dolls or just sitting together, gazing at the clouds or the moon.
...
The day of the fire... It's been burned into my memory, haunting me in my sleep from time to time... It was a nightmare, a real nightmare... The heat and the smoke woke us up. We coughed and spat, crawling low to find the door. It hadn't occurred to us yet that the flames were an azure color. The instant we woke up... we wanted to get out of there, to the safety of outside... It wasn't until... until we had gotten outside that we had seen what had happened... Our home engulfed in bright azure flames... Our parents nowhere to be found... Crying into each other is when we finally noticed... We were the cause... Flames danced around us, but they didn't burn...

Thank... you... for your questions..."

"Howdy there, ya' Azure dudes! We are callin' ya', cause Joey and Ostap said, that Azure Deutschland produces some special sort of booze, it's azure and has some unique taste. It might be beer, or maybe some stronger stuff, doesn't matter. We wanna try it and can even pay for it!

So, do ya' have that Azure booze? Or this is just a rumor? If so, what are the other booze choices we can order for our warband? Cause Germans know how to make a good beverage. Especially Bavarians."- Red Stalkers Warband.

"I'm afraid to tell you that this azure-colored alcohol you speak of is mostly a myth, to my knowledge, at least. Though, I wouldn't be surprised if there is a maker crafting such styles of alcohol.

Other than that, we, in fact, do still produce quality beer and alcohol.
I quite enjoy some of the choices of wine my country produces.

Thank you for the questions.
I hope the answers were satisfactory."

I am Chae Ha-kyung, a teacher on Civics in the Gyeonggi Nat'l High School. As March was designated as the International Women's Month, I have been very active in our school community in recognizing and promoting the achievements of women all over the world, as well as encouraging our fellow citizens to take part in our ideals of an equal world for all sexes. That is why I'd like to know whether had Azur progressed in terms of granting women the virtue of equality in their society. This will certainly help our research as well which will help complement our curriculum. Thank you! Please have a nice day. " - Chae Ha-kyung Teacher IV, Gyeonggi National High School

"Guten Tag, Fräulein
It's a pleasure to meet you, Chae Ha-kyung.

Our country, our homeland, is united, through and through. Women in Azur Deutschland hold all of the same rights and levels of freedom that men do. Respect and equality are valued here in Azur Deutschland. There is no reason that a woman should have anything less. In fact, many of the mages in service who defended the Fatherland were female. I mean, just look at my twin and I, hehe.

I hope that's a satisfactory answer.
Thank you for the question. I'd like to wish you a nice day as well."
