The Metternichist Republic of Poland does not condemn the actions of People's Socialist Republic of Albania, since the Cultural Ideological Revolution appears to be an internal affair. However, as the Comrade-Emperor of Poland and a formal ally of the People's Socialist Republic of Albania and a friend of First Secretary Enver Hoxha I will offer the following advice. The new eradication of foreign religious influences is but a first step in a two-stage process. The working class needs a sense of higher authority. You have created a void, now you must fill it. Sacralise, in the most politically conscious manner, Marx, Lenin, the Albanian Socialists and other appropriate Socialist notables. This will provide a sense of the 'divine' that the people need but cannot be provided by foreign religions. The other nations, such as the fascist Kingdom of the Evenstar, expressly condemning the actions of the Central Committee of the Albanian Party of Labour are merely worried about a state that is independent from the imperialist network.

The above nation needs more social order.

The above nation is under the influence of Banderists.

(Explanation: Hequ was once a proud city-state. It was a very honourable effort that has been betrayed). Another issue: Too much parliamentarianism in the above nation.

The above nation has betrayed its own ideology/raison d'être.

[English translation courtesy of the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs] Good day, ladies and gentlemen. Today marks the seventy-first anniversary of Polish victory over the fascist plague. Comrade-Emperor Klemens Hawicki gave the following speech in Revolution Square in Warsaw. 'I come before you, on this joyous occasion, to celebrate and remember our People's great victory in 1945. Assisted by our brothers in the East, the Polish People marched unobstructed to Berlin, and participated in the final battle against the nest of the fascist plague. This German menace, that claimed the lives of so many Poles, and millions of others beyond our borders, was stamped out on this day, seventy-one years ago. As the distance between the Great Victory and the present-day increases, we must be ever more diligent in remembering the suffering endured by our People. The voices of participants are being snuffed out by the natural effects of time. In the present-day, the Polish People have been significantly weakened. After 1990, hatred against the East was promoted, while a blind forgiveness to the main murderers in Germany had become the de-facto norm. However, the Polish People has come to its senses. It shook off the boot of its newest occupier, the West. The hostile reactions of the German leadership, the leadership of the EU, and the controllers in Washington have confirmed to us that the fascist spirit, seeking to oppress the Polish People and its Slavic brothers is alive and thriving. We must never allow the German to ever dictate our affairs. We must never allow German firms to buy Polish property and for German citizens to ever own land on Polish soil. These practises, ubiquitous before the Final Revolution, were the means by which Poland became economically subjugated to Germany. Political control came from the EU, which has become a vehicle for German political ambitions. These ambitions have included the destruction of the Polish People's faith and other forms of cultural genocide. Had the Final Revolution never occurred, Poland would have been under the boot of a new Fourth Reich, negating all the sacrifices of our Grandfathers, Fathers and other ancestors. Long live the free Polish People! Long live the victory over fascism! Long live the Peaceful Nations! Przed Twe ołtarze zanosim błaganie: Ojczyznę wolną pobłogosław Panie!

I would support the present leadership of the Hequ city-state. Many of you supported my leadership during the recent conclusion of the Polish Civil War involving the Imperial Republic of Poland and the Republic of Poland (pro-Western traitors). Would you support me again?

Yes, the brotherhood and friendship of the Polish and Khevinist peoples will grow forever more. United by a common alliance and political consciousness, we shall grow ever stronger together.

I am quite flattered.

Here are a few suggestions. Leninovsk - Named after Lenin Klemensovsk - Named after me (your friend), or Prince Klemens von Metternich Kolarovsk - Named after the Chairman of the People's Republic of Velika Brezhnevsk - Named after Leonid Ilyich Brezhnev also, Dovgansk - Named after Comrade Dovgan Sewitsk - Named after you Zhoginsk - Named after the ideology of Khevin

That is not the case if you are educated in BrE (British English) orthography. How many times must this be explained? BrE orthography is characterised by several differences from its American counterpart. I personally wish that BrE would become the international standard for English pronunciation, orthography and vocabulary. Imagine the wondrous effect of a British Academy of the English Language, similar in function to the l'Académie française!

The Imperial Republic of Poland fully supports the Kingdom of the Evenstar. I must ask your Majesty about the origins of the dissenting organisations. From my own experience in Poland, such organisations are usually tied to foreign interests, one way or another. The foreign connexions of these organisations must be made very well-known, if your Majesty wishes to consolidate popular support for this decree.

The recent war was merely an 'internal' event concerning the Polish People. As you know, Poland is an Imperial Republic. The term 'Imperial Republic' aptly describes the Polish state as imperial in its power structure and lack of democracy/liberalism without using the term 'empire' which would additionally imply an expansive state embarking on aggressive wars against its neighbours. Our military doctrine is purely defensive. In short, Poland respects the sovereignty of all nations and does not concern itself with the internal affairs of other states.

Perhaps... To clarify, those are Obwody (oblasts, formerly known as Voivodeships). Obwody are merely provinces, not states. What I mean to say; there can be only one Polish state, since there is only one Polish People.

There can only be one Poland.

Not quite. For a long time the Republic of Poland (RoP) had superior strength to the Imperial Republic of Poland (CRP). However, the RoP leadership became inactive (29 II 2016) and the CRP decided to prove which nation is the real Poland of Orbis after thirty days of absent RoP leadership. Right in the middle of the 'inactive' war, the leader of the RoP suddenly returned and decided to abolish the so-called 'Republic of Poland' and restarted as a new nation. Oppression would have been the reverse situation, namely the RoP waging war against the CRP or the CRP waging war against a powerful 'newcomer'.

Thank you for your congratulations. As you can see, the Republic of Poland no longer exists, after surrendering and requesting a national re-set (see the nation under i.d. no. 10020). This marks a great victory for the Slavic peoples, as indicated by the Emperor of Chernigov. If anybody recalls, the extinct Republic of Poland treacherously adopted the Euro, rather than maintaining the Polish ZÅ‚oty. Furthermore, the Republic of Poland was staunchly revisionist through its denial of the positives and progress of the Peoples' Republic of Poland (1944-1989) and through its placement of the PRL into the same category as the monstrous fascist occupation (1939-1944). This revisionism was further compounded by the Republic of Poland's complete lack of acknowledgement of the role of religion in the life of the Polish People. Finally, the Republic of Poland made no effort to build good relations with its Slavic brethren. Overall, the Republic of Poland was too eager to sell itself to the West at the expense of Polish culture, spirit and independence. Must I even mention that the Republic of Poland was part of the capitalist Syndicate?

Not a bad idea. I really miss the old days of colour-sphere colonies. While your suggestion is not the same thing, it might set the tone for increasing land disputes as part of gameplay.

[English translation courtesy of the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs] Good day, ladies and gentlemen. Today, his Excellency addressed the Polish People on the status of the pacification efforts against the 'Republic of Poland'. The following is taken from his speech given from the Revolution Square in Warsaw. 'I am pleased to declare to you, the Polish People, that the Republic of Poland no longer exists as a political, civic, ideological or military entity. Following the destruction of its unused arsenal, the Republic of Poland was crippled by numerous ground assaults and faced significant losses of its infrastructure. After five days of fighting, the Republic of Poland disbanded, with its leadership fleeing abroad, leaving no trace of its former activity. I declare now, that one important step of the Final Revolution has been completed. Poland is finally at peace. Yet we can never let down our guard. We must be vigilant against those who seek to destroy us from abroad and from within. We must remember who, we are so that we may never betray our beloved Ojczyzna. We shall never let our foreign enemies dictate our affairs. We shall never allow the Polish state to become a commodity in the bourgeois-liberal-imperialist order. We shall never let the spirit of the Polish People die in the fires of the West! We shall live forever! Czerna ziemio pochłoń tego, kto zdrajca Narodu! bo skoleji, Żyje, żyje duch Polaków i żyć będzie jeszcze, Tak nam dopomoż Bóg, tak nam dopomóż Bóg!' His Excellency proceeded to decorate the recommended veterans of the pacification campaign. Among those decorated was Colonel Jan Maksymowski, who led the final ground attack against the compound of the Republic of Poland movement. Here is his Excellency photographed when he received the news of the victory from War Minister Andrychowski

Of course Belarus does not exist in Orbis. However, noting your pan-Ruthenianism, I simply want to gauge your opinion of the Belarus found on Earth.

Likewise, what is your opinion of the Republic of Belarus?

Polish vodka is better than gorilka (quite obviously). We do not need to produce any 'knock-offs', since we have our own world renown classics. Żubrówka is one that comes to mind. However, I must concede that Russian vodkas trump all other Eastern European competitors. Nothing beats Jewel of Russia. (By the way, I hope that the name 'Melnyk Brothers' is not some perverse homage to the OUN-M and its leader.)

The Imperial Republic of Poland admires the political self-restraint manifested in Hequ's city-state organisation. The maintenance of a city-state must be difficult in this hostile, imperialist environment. And to repeat what was said earlier, the Imperial Republic of Poland does not have a stake in any internal affairs of a given state. Granted, states ideologically and politically friendly to Poland constitute more natural candidates for trade and other manifestations of friendship.

Since the Imperial Republic of Poland is a socialist state opposing all forms of imperialism, Poland does not interfere in the activities of other states, not mention that it values its friendship with Khevin. The Imperial Republic of Poland has three constitutionally acknowledged, traditional religions. One, Polish Orthodoxy, is the default state religion. The others, Judaism and Tatar Sunni Islam enjoy minority protection and receive official status in any administrative area where adherents constitute more than 60 per-cent of the population. Any other religious movement is considered to be a sect and therefore enjoys no legal protection. If I were to answer your question about money, the post could fill a novel. In short, the Imperial Republic of Poland utilises a minimalist approach to money. The liberal concept of LGBTQ marriage is alien to the Polish psyche. While Poland does not have anti-sodomy legal penalties and attacks upon homosexuals are regarded in the same manner as any other crime, Polish marriage involves only one man and one woman. If LGBTQ persons want to marry, they can go to the EU. As for Khevinist human rights, speaking bluntly, Poland does not care. So long as Khevin, or any other nation, does not try to export its ideas or take control of the Polish state, then the Imperial Republic of Poland turns a blind eye. Human rights has become an imperialist byword to justify otherwise unjustified interference in another state's affairs.
