It's currently a mess, RM is dead, completely, shows no activity whatsoever and the HC as you said is non-existent, same goes for DHC- their HC is also completely gone, no activity on forums or ingame at all. While Kruger can still keep its head up the HC there is also completely wasted which might actually be solved if @Legionnaire gets access to the Banks etc and we build a new HC. The Unioners seem okay-ish but RFP is also pretty dead, the only lawful Rheinland faction that is active is the BDM, Hessians are also pretty silent, most of thos eproblems can be solved by putting active members or willing members in a HC position or giving them the possibility to act on their own, Rheinland used to be in a decent status, it really doesn't need to be like it is now.
The Bundestag should indeed act and I mean really hard.
