Infinitos Mundos

Unlike other meetings of officials, in the name of transparancy the 18th Lusitanian Congress is televised for the world to see. As the debate begins Lusitanian delegates and people alike wait in anticipation for the worlds reaction.

The Congress officially opens at 10:00 AM with a comment from current Head of State Cássio Dias.

"Brothers and sisters of Lusitania, the current state of affairs of our nation cannot be described as favorable. I will not mince my words when it comes to the fact that we have critically failed on our promises to the hard working people of this nation. The blood of tens of thousands in the revolution we all remember so freshly was spilt for the promise of not only freedom and justice but safety and unity. Now millions of televisions are turned on to witness whether this promise will be fulfilled, something which should have been granted upon the first meeting of this congress! Our unity must overcome our division or else we consign ourselves to a worse failure than any other loss to an external threat- we will lose to our own indecisiveness and stubborness."

The Congress is quiet as Cássio sits down again. Everyone knows that they cannot afford to fail again. The first agenda item is the structure of the legislature- next to speak is Alexandre Álves.
