- "I am a sincere advocate of all means which would lead to an end to the dispute with Niels Jørgensen of South Rabarrieh, by any peaceful methods neccessary, and I will rejoice in my heart if we can resolve the differences with, our kinsmen in the Alpdevsca region, by some means that would prevent loss of life.
But I am also bound to say this -- that I believe it is essential in the highest interests, not merely of this Empire, but of the entire region, that the Holy Empire of Cranaeia should at all costs maintain her place and her prestige as one of the great powers of the region. I know in my heart that we must stop Niels Jørgensen at all costs. For those of you who dont know Niels Jørgensen is a former dictator of Euphrania who after fleeing from Euphrania after the restoration of the monarchy in Euphrania made his way to Mancester, capital of South Rabarrieh. After spending several months in South Rabarrieh he seized control over the government with the support of several members of the South Rabarrian Army. He is threatening to expand his influence and he threatens the balance of power on the continent of Rabarrieh and he also threatens the Region of Alpdevsca as a whole. He is inflciting much pain and torture upon the people of South Rabarrieh torturing and executing many of them. This torture of innocent people cant go on for much longer we as a leading nation in Alpdevsca must take a stand against this dictator and remove him from his office so that he can answer for his crimes."
- ~Karl Raoúl, Secretary of State for Defence, speaking before an emergency meeting of the Cranaeian Imperial Parliament
