MOD: Well start off with former Reich Chancellor Drake. What are your plans as Reich Chancellor?
DRA: As Reich Chancellor, I will continue to ensure citizen's rights and increase our military size. We must have more soldiers to protect us.
MOD: Mr. Smith?
SMI: Like Madame Drake, I will continue to ensure rights of current citizens. Unlike her, I will make sure the same is said for new citizens. I will also try and create a new currency system that will try an distance ourselves from the American one.
MOD: Vice Chancellor Gomez?
GOM: As Reich Chancellor, I will continue the current policies that my predecessor has created. I hope to appease all citizens like she has.
MOD: Grand Marshal Griffins?
GRIF: Like Madame Drake, I plan to increase our military. I also hope to give more power to the state governments, while also having the Federal Government still have control over the state.
MOD: Lastly, RM Easton?
EAST: Unlike my rivals here, I plan on abolishing the Reichstag, in favor of a Worker's Council that will be made up by the working people.
MOD: Next Question. Say if the Monarch was to refuse a crucial bill that the people support, what would you do?
DRA: I would have a discussion with the Emperor. I'll try and reason with him to try an find a common ground.
SMI: I would also chat with the Emperor. I would try and find a common ground, like Madame Drake, but also keep in mind that the Emperor's discussion could be overturned by majority vote from the Reichstag.
GOM: I would do the same. I would have a clean discussion with him.
GRIFF: The Emperor's discussion is final. If he doesn't like it, that means it must be fixed.
EAST: If I had my way, I would abolish the monarchy, but will never happen, so I would propose new laws that would limit the Emperor's powers over legislature.
MOD: What are your plans for the economy?
DRA: I hate to say it, but we don't have an economy. There really is no purpose for one.
SMI: I disagree. I say we create a new monetary system, with a new currency, like New Pugnasia.
GRIFF: But the New Pugnasian Currency didn't work.
EAST: How do you know? You were to busy putting down riots!
MOD: Gentlemen, control yourselves.
GOM: I suggest we move on.
MOD: Last Question, Describe your campaign goal in one sentence.
DRA: To Make Austrovia Great Again!

GOM: Protecting Tradition.
GRIFF: Ensuring Freedom.
EAST: Rights for the Workers.
