      We are researching democracy now
      This means that half of the goal of the Democratic Movement of Apolytonia is reached. The only thing left is to support researching it quickly, and switching as soon as we get it.

        At this point it seems that 'as soon as we get it' would occur sometime before our GA is over. I'm an avid supporter or Democracy but I say we shouldn't be as radical as to switch governments during our GA!
        Let's wait after the GA is over to switch.

          Shiber, I take it you are saying this because you want to avoid the time of anarchy that cuts into our (increased) production. I can see your point of view. Just one thing more to consider: We only have 1 turn of anarchy, remember?

          I belive that Shiber is right this time. We would only get democracy during the closing years of our GA, and the turn of anarchy would not be worth the sacrifice. Now, if we got Demo. early on, I would say go for it to decrease corruption over most of our GA.

          In conclusion, my statement has been ammended to "The only thing left is to support researching it quickly, and switching as soon as we get it and our GA is over".

              Yes, I realize we only have one turn of anarchy but as you said, what I meant is that it will not be worth it because we'll only get Democracy close to the end of the GA, and if you compare the losses from a turn of GA wasted in anarchy and the benefits of having Democracy throughout the rest of the GA, the losses will outweigh the benefits.
              Btw, congrats on your new avatar.

                WE NOW HAVE DEMOCRACY!!!



                OK, to all members of the Democratic Movement of Apolytonia, FULLY support switching to democracy WHEN our GA is over.

                Of course, you can support switching during our GA, but the one turn of anarchy may not be good during the GA.

                    If I have anything to do with it (and I do...), the administration very well may start a poll on this issue in the near future

                    Given our religious trait, it's always POSSIBLE to go democratic even before the end of the GA, but I agree that waiting for the end of the GA is probably better.

                    Thus...

                    An expansion of suffrage rights is something I'm willing to consider and perhaps even officially propose, but it will take some time to work out the details of how our state infrastructure would handle the change.

                      I agree we should switch the second the GA is over, we don't want to waste a turn of the GA.

                          We don't want to waste a single turn of GA in anarchy, and we don't want to waste a single turn afterwards in republic. The answer is then obvious - switch immediately after the GA is over.
