I have seen over the course of my life what power did to my mother who was once such a gentle creature. It warped and twisted her mind until she was a maddened creature driven by lust for more and more power. We, though created in the image of God, are not meant to attain the power of God. That is why on this date in the Year of our Lord 1862, I Edward VII Last King of Britain declare the dissolution of the Constitutional Monarch of the United Kingdom and institute a new order of Democracy fashioned after the documents created by our brothers in liberty to the West. It is our desire that such madness never be allowed to fester in our heads of government. To the Union and our Allies the French, my mother Queen Victoria wronged you greatly with her words and actions. Parliament, the people of the United Kingdom, and myself place ourselves at the mercy of your forgiveness for our support of one who is truly a tyrant. We beg these Nations to allow us to make peace. We plead that we might not be beholden to the actions of our ancestors. We will meet with your Nations wherever you want to make peace and begin restoration of broken relationships. We ask that Russia and Greece absolve us of our military treaties to them as they were founded in madness and lust for power. We will state that we all plan to move forward in seeking a pleasant resolution and brotherhood. We understand the importance of the Ionian isles and still agree to the terms dictated by Greece in the return of those Isles though there is no need for troops any longer. To all the other Nations my Mother in her madness wronged, we grieve and beg forgiveness. The United Kingdom will be at the Conference of Turin should any wish to speak with us. God forgive us, for we have sinned. May we go and sin no more. -Edward VII, Last Monarch of the United Kingdom
