Together, we shall find victory! - Iron Commanders

My people, this is the Président speaking.

Today, Auly is at a standstill.

The Nation has three options. Three choices that will forever change our way of life.

On one side, we can decide to side with our sincere friends of the state of Grymena, with whom we share our Democratic ideals.

But to join them and their Pact would mean throwing Auly in a war far beyond any other Bayania has had the misfortune of experiencing. 

On the other, the new superpower. The Demonic Empire and its large web of allies.

Though none of their nations share our ideals and system of government, their humanity can simply not be ignored.

But then, we would find ourselves isolated in this corner of Bayania where superpowers fight for dominance.

Or we can choose to remain unaligned.

This leads me, people of Auly, to have to confess something.

I have already made my decision.

I believe that, in this current state that the Principality finds itself in, we are stagnant.

We are, above all, producers of cheese and wine.

Cheese is best in Summer, and wine can ONLY be produced in Summer, which means that we have to make enough money every Summer to survive until the next.

But this doesn't have to be.

The vast plains of Basse Vertd'âme are unused, not even for our characteristic crops. They could be home to cities, and most importantly, industry.

I know, people of Auly that this word, 'Industry' may seem foreign to you, but it will soon become very familiar.

Before the end of my term in Cynast, I promise you, people of Auly, that we will be, hand in hand with our Demonic allies, the Arsenal of Democracy.

I promise, too, that I will never send my people to death for foreign soil.

The South-East-Bayanian-Treaty-Organization will be supplied by us. We will be famous for our industrial talent.

And together, we shall find victory!
