After the Equalists have helped Admiral Picard fend off the Kandorian navy, The Kandorians stated they would only surrender if they were given equal representation in the Assembly of Monarchs, which currently The Kandorian Isles is classified as a colony of the Calderan Empire. Governor Kandus appears before the Assembly of Monarchs and demands that the Island Commonwealth of Kandoria be recognized as a full state of the Imperial Confederation of Caldera, stating that though it will not be a monarchy, it should have a seat on the Assembly. Henry Dupont, leader of the Equalist Underground, sits in the gallery waiting for his turn to address the Assembly of Monarchs. As he wants to begin integrating the other ethnicities into Calderan society. |

Governor Kandus sits back in his seat, and the Caldesar speaks, "This is something we should have done when Caldera was first unified. It makes no sense to ostracize these people for some phantom hatred. In fact had we done this, this entire conflict could have been avoided." The monarchs agree and vote to approve of making the Island Commonwealth of Kandoria a full provincial kingdom of the Imperial Confederation of Caldera, and the Kandorians have two weeks to send someone to fill the Kandorian seat in the Assembly, and until then, the Kandorians can not vote on any measures. Governor Kandus agrees to the terms and leaves to announce the exciting news to his people. However despite this victory, tension looms as Henry Dupont, leader of the Equalist Underground, takes his turn on the floor of the Assembly of Monarchs:
The Caldesar states, "And I suppose you want seats on the Assembly, too?" Dupont replies, "No, Your Majesty, just being able to live freely with the same rights and privileges that any ethnic Calderan receives as a citizen of this Empire." King William III of Sibullia asks, "How many Jews and Hamish are among you?" Dupont replies, "Altogether we are one million strong, and out of that about 20% are Hamish, and 10% Jewish." William then follows, "What are their views of on the recent uprisings in other countries, such as the Hamish Oppression in Rhomeis, and the release of 'The Zion Conspiracy'?" Dupont answers, "Since we are poor, very few of us have been able to follow those events, however I have told them of these things, and there only concern is if such oppression will be felt here in Caldera. No Hamish, those who are Islamic anyway, wish to impose Sharia law in Caldera. And as for 'The Zion Conspiracy', Our Jewish members are disgusted, however respect the current policies that the Empire and the individual kingdoms have taken. We just hope such pragmatism be aimed towards us in this situation, as we desparately want to be free members of your society." |

The Assembly considers his words, King William III of Sibullia rises, "Why show yourself now? Couldn't you make just an easy a claim without such an opportune moment?" Queen Liliana IV of Asula, who has been secretly funding the Equalist Underground, rises in Dupont's defense, "Royal William be honest. Do you think had Mr. Dupont came to us without prove of valor to this assembly that his moral requests be fulfilled? This very incident with the Kandorians is proof of that, and they are actually of ethnic Calderan blood, and you think you'd treat someone not of Calderan blood higher than a Kandorian?" King William III sits back down in his chair without giving an answer, Francis Allemain X of Allemania then asks of Dupont, "There is no doubt that without the help of you and your group, Caldera would have fallen only months after being unified, but this one act to me is not enough to prove that you and your group are loyal and trustworthy. Perhaps if we enacted a policy of segregation? Whereby each ethnic group are given some land, proportionate to their percentage of the total population, where they can live openly as Calderan citizens and build up their own communites in the open air, where they have equal quality of employment opportunities, food, education, health care, infrastructure, to show that they can function as free members of society before being fully integrated into the populace?" Quenn Liliana reacts and jumps to her feet, "How dare you?!" Dupont motions for her to sit down, "Please, Royal, no need for emotional outbursts. That is quite an idea, Royal Francis, it certainly better than living underground, where would these communities be? Would they be concentrated in one kingdom or be spread out to every kingdom proportionate to the local population?" Francis was taken aback by Dupont's reasoning skills. The Caldesar bangs the gavel twice to signal that it is time for the lunch recess and that the Assembly would readjourn in two hours. Dupont was relieved, fearing he would have to give an answer on the spot, but now he has time to confer with his brethren for the best answer. (OOC: I would just like to remind you that these Assembly proceedings, except where explicitly stated, are televised and broadcast throughout the nation and internationally, so you guys are able to see what is going on in the Assembly of Monarchs). |
