Let it never be said that one man is unable to influence the many. For what is considered a true consideration for the well-being of a populace will generate an environment of individuals tolerant and interested in his ideals. Should portions of these ideals be respected or accepted by the masses, do not suspect that those ideals are now –the populaces- ideals. Individuals are allowed their opinions and their thoughts, to generate factual responses, occurrences and instances through preaching their respective beliefs. To deprive beings of that regardless of their position would be unjust, unfair and would institute ignorance amongst the peoples associated with. But to judge ignorance would make one greater than that whom he judges. Only in hierarchy and royalty in cultures do some allow the ability to judge and decide the possibility and ability of the preached. I shall not, and hope that the peoples of Britannia would allow for the uneducated or intolerant to profess or suggest that they disregard the ideals and thoughts of an individual. To sabotage organizations for the misunderstanding on a belief structure of one individual would be a folly and error in scholarly attempts by those who deem themselves so. With that, I pray that the beings of this realm will be conscious of the activities they indulge in when generalizing groupings due to the will of men.

Let not the judgment or disagreement of two instances, both dedicated to the positivity and unity of the masses be a reason to disregard the possibility of a unification of nations. Understand that foundations of Organizations are indeed that. To fortify the groupings within said organizations one should maintain the foundation and spirit in which it was built upon. With this in mind, Governments will be built upon virtue will enforce and support the Virtues (and associated principles) in all aspects and shall nay stray from it in any event. It is the foundation of any group of individuals that will surely unify them in all their causes and issues regarding their respective provinces. This will suggest the ideal of “Family”. The respective peoples of Britannia and realms abroad do follow Lord British’s virtues and in following said virtues are unified in the preservation and conservation of the principles in which they were built upon. Thus, creating a grand, undocumented alliance. Nay should a drop of ink be involved in light aiding light, positive unification pushing for positive action, or in times of war (Considering an agreement of ideals regarding said war), a hand be offered to those willing to accept. These are ideals crafted and etched into our beings with creation. The ideals and feelings surrounding the Virtues are and should be preached, loudly to the peoples whom will hear it; but at our time of conception, should it be celestial, ethereal, or that of nature, positive and negative feelings will become part of us. The Virtues invoke a positive in all beings born of blood and associated with Light. To denounce the religious beliefs of groups outside of those who were taught to associate positivity with Virtue, would create a grand conflict and will gather peoples into groups. One being the Lesser and one being the Greater.

But in our existence, is this grouping actual truth? Is it honest judgment of individuals and what they follow? In the event that one ideal makes the other out to be lesser, and one produce positivity and the other negativity, then proper judgment is possible. But in an instance where one following does nay denounce the other, nor profess to be greater than it, how can one suggest otherwise. Tis what we see most oft that is fact. When alternate meanings come into view or circular conversation around topics begin, then one shall consider this demodulation of a following or established religion. And Even still…an individual is allowed this ideal in simply being….or his existence.

We can pray that the eventual assimilation of all view-points and ideals will come into effect, but that would relinquish our individuality. And individuality is what draws one to another at times. Does not a rose in a garden of weeds attract one’s eye? There is also the question of one serving two masters and such. But should one temper one with the other; Rationality and realism combined with the intricate obstacles that life brings us to, all viewed in the honesty and spirituality of virtue; he shant call one greater or lesser than the other but reside in the wisdom that comes with the combination of the two. Again, these are his ideals and he is entitled to his religious and scholarly beliefs. But that does nay make those he comes in contact with to inherit said ideals. Perhaps, it will affect his decision-making, but allow him to understand the possibilities of the other side, and decide justly, with the peoples well-being in mind regarding realism and the truth in existence. I in know way suggest that one study the darkness, but one ponder the effects that associations with such will bring to their people. We shall stray from what will produce negative effects to the populace; and that is what makes the unification (or strict following of a singular belief system) and strict following of the ideals we hold close to us so powerful. But still, Tis one beings belief, and tis nay always inherited by those associated with him or her.

Kings will govern their City-states with the peoples best interest in mind. Those who reside in greed will take measures to see their wealth multiply. And those, who are true to themselves will remain in the peoples eye for their spirituality…and belief in their decisions to remain an individual. Understand the thoughts and processes of individuals before one should cast a stone, and with your studies end, see how his or her judgment is altered for negativity or positivity amongst their people.
