@ Thorgili; the reserves stat was only the total number of people you could enlist in the military. It wasn't people who were already in it. It seemed like an unnecessary statistic so I got rid of it.

Yes I am aware it wasn't actual units I just thought it strange it suddenly disappeared. I am guessing that limit still applies though.

Well it's the reason he believes for his mother's crazyness. Also all the craziness of kings in the past. So he's doing the right thing and making certain that that cannot happen again.We're going to have to change our anthem...

The public is going to be piss when the change of rulers and the change to republic.

[AegonVI]

It will go a long ways to disrupt the population especially in Ireland on one hand the Fenians may see this as a chance for a huge uprising in the other hand it may make them happy and stop any uprisings by them altogether.

[So Boerd]

Do I get war orders for my invasion-by-any-other-name?

Yes, but I may have to rework them now. Is it possible to edit them, Bossman Outcast?

Not sure how all the politics will work out, but considering that all these people are now getting equal representation shouldn't they be happy?

Edit: "MADE us lust for land and power" Excuse me!?! We made you do nothing. Not our fault you can't control your impulses when a pretty broad looks your way :P

They were getting representation before with the Houses of parliament. The only thing that really changes is that your PM or president or whatever you'll call it is now the head of state instead of the Queen.

Love for the monarchy has waned in Britain, but still exists in the modern day. Undo 150 years of waning, and you have how the British felt about the monarchy.

Not to mention all of the references to the United States that Edward made. From war to an attempt to emulate their style of government in an instant?

Weren't those very...'establishment' types though? Like only the rich and those of certain status could get in?

That was with the House of Lords. House of Commons is a different story.

Perhaps in Britain but my experiences among irish republicans (seeing as how I am one and a supporter of both the Sinn Fein and a few paramilitary organizations that may or may not be labeled as terrorist organizations.) That they since the beginning were fighting for a free irish state and that the oppressive British laws and rule while a factor where not as big as was the mere want of a irish state which I believe they would have fought for even if the British became a republic much like Zionism to the Jews irish nationalism was not just a movement powered by civil rights and political rights but the want of a Zion for the irish.

Well if the colonies get proper representation then you may do just dandy.

War orders and general orders edited. I'll get to the peace treaties next turn.

I'm really eager to see the Union's response to everything. I'm anticipating either the hugest burn in history til this point, or the most gracious act of forgiveness.
