The election's about to begin in Germany. 24 years after the revolutions which laid the foundations for this country, we must once again exercise our right as free men and be heard.

So, who will you vote for? Personally, I am a big fan of our current chancellor Bismarck and his ideas, and his political leadership during the war with France was superb, but I would really prefer to see a more competitive colonial drive overseas. So, I will probably vote for the Imperial Party rather than the German National Party this year. What about you?

OOC: The results of this election may influence the future of the timeline I'm writing (see sig).
