Grand Duke’s Sixth form (IC)

[Lodhs beard]

'The aristocracy?'

[Glevenschester]

'The aristocracy?'

“Correct.
So it follows that the aristocracy will be increasingly rich.”

“Now I want you to get into groups and discuss whether this is good or bad for GDP.”

[Lodhs beard]

'The aristocracy?'

“Correct.
So it follows that the aristocracy will be increasingly rich.”

Unless, perhaps, the wider economic situation declines, owing to either external or internal circumstances, such as, for example, war, or mass defaults on mortgages, in which case the value of properties would decline, and the wealth of the aristocracy would decrease.'

“True. You are very knowledgeable on this.
Now let’s discuss whether this concentration of wealth good or bad for GDP, in groups.”

[Lodhs beard]

Lodh introduces himself to one of the groups beginning to form, feeling a little nervous

[Nationalist Northumbria]

OOC: General.

OOC:
Ok. I’ll pick two areas and two policies in each area
Voted for deployment of soldiers to fight communist rebels in Thamesholm.

Voted against pay rises for said Glevenscestrian soldiers in the Thamesholm civil war.

Voted for increased tuition fees based on the logic that “most students are middle-class”.

Voted for reducing the financial support for working-class students to stay in education from ages of 15 (the minimum school leaving age) to 18.

OOC: OK.

OOC: OK.

OOC: Yes

OOC: Yes.

Which ones and why?

[Glevenschester]

IC:
The bell rings for the next lesson, history for Marshfield and politics for Lodh III.

OOC: Lodh, you make a post for what he says about the GDP and back date it.

[Nationalist Northumbria]

He heads to History.

He heads to History.

“In 1750, a law was introduced where the Mayor of Glevenschester City could with the approval of the Reeve of Glevenschester appoint paid guards responsible for patrolling the streets, stating the hours, firefighting and apprehending felons , by 1815 what was the most common previous occupation of these men?”

OOC: I’ll give you a clue, in 1815 the Napoleonic wars ended.

"Convict."

“Incorrect. After 1815, the majority were former soldiers and whilst some consorted with criminals and most were violent to people they arrested, convicted felons were not accepted. Despite this, or perhaps because of it,
it became a widespread joke that the best ways to get away with a murder were to become ‘a soldier, a sailor or watchman.’

In 1820, two organised police services were established, the Grand Duchy Police (descended from the earlier watchmen but placed in a hierarchy with civil rather military titles, with the exception of sergeant, and given a very strict code of conduct) and the Glevenschester University Police (with jurisdiction of 5 KM of the University of Glevenschester precinct).

The former was responsible for regular urban street patrols and there would also normally be a Sergeant and two Deputies in each village

As well as preventing fights between ,and targeted attacks against, students, the Glevenschester University Police could, until, 1935, sent suspected prostitutes to the university authorities who could, if proven, send them to the workhouse.”

The bell then rang for break.

A new game is spreading like wildfire among the student body, 'eyepoking'. The aim of the game is to poke your opponent's eye out. There are no rules. Three students have already lost an eye.

There is an investigation involving both Grand Duchy Police and Grand Duke’s School Police.

Over the course of break, another four students lose an eye, in addition to one of the three students becoming completely blind after losing their other eye.

Two students caught in the act are arrested, if they resist arrest they will be killed.
Meanwhile everyone is sent home apart from the boarders who are ordered to stay in their rooms.

The two students receive court summons for the Glevenschester City

The Commissioner of Police Jacob Vale points out that it has been illegal to inflict grievous bodily harm since common law times.
He expresses the opinion that an eye for an eye should be the law in the Grand Duchy.
