The Colonial Republic - Elections of 821 A.S.

[Crayter Republic]

The election campaigns continued for twelve more days after the day of the competitors' speeches, as each one of them continued to present their plans for the Republic's future. It was a vivid and theater-like commotion, through which the Colonial people assessed who would be best to lead them.

But so came the day of voting, when almost every citizen of the Republic placed his choice in an urn - and only after a day of counting, the results were ready to be displayed.

It proved to be a tight fight, as Corvin and DeMille were separated by barely a hundred votes. Being fairly close, in both influence and devotion - the two candidates were obviously going to be hard to choose from. It was DeMille's rather weary condition, which brought a question mark upon his ability to lead the nation, that turned the tides in Corvin's favour.

The people were exalted, finally having passed through their first elections. Everyone is cheering for their new leader; the Crayterians are ready to honour him however they can, while the latest immigrants, be it from Liberty or Bretonia, feel a bit bewildered, yet hopeful. It is amazing how a nation that has been through so much, so fast, was able to reach this kind of social standards, and moreover with clean hands.

With the elections over now, the Colonial Republic returns to its day-to-day business, ready to make more steps forward.
