[ROLEPLAY] Modern Tyranny

It was once believed, my friends, by the French at Waterloo, that the world could once become a shining beacon of democracy, free of monarchs and aristocrats subjugating the average man. The everyman. The working man. The Austrian man ruling the Hungarian man, the Prussian man ruling the Bavarian man.

This was not to be. The world has taken a sharp turn into the reactionary. What was once a given right has now become a commodity in this modern world: self determination, peace, and free speech. Was this, my friends, what a quarter of the French people died for? Is this what the allies fought for to fight the Prussian hegemon of Hitler trying to control the world from Berlin?

Alas, it seems the weak spirit of Europe is doomed to a death. As the embers of democracy falter, the terrible fumes and wildfire of dictatorship and psuedo-democracy takes it's place. And why? Is there economic failure? Is there subjugation? Is there war?

Yes, yes, and yes. These three things could be avoided if WE controlled ourselves. We must not surrender to any outside force, but instead - as Bavarians - stand to our own FREEDOM, a hope which has been pushed aside, but NEVER forgotten. We have not even been offered autonomy in out military, economics, or foreign policy that would allow us to exist on our own. We need this. This is all that can save us - and Europe - from great economic failure.

We are not the hicks, the alcoholics, and the fools of Germany. We are not Germans at all! We are willing to stand up to that fact, and proudly! For we must exist as we existed many dawns ago! Glory to Bavaria! Praise be to her freedom!
