[center][h2]Current Day At the Palace in Ocu[/h2][/center]
[quote=Leonardo Gutierrez]"Only a foolish government rules it's people at the end of a tank barrel"[/quote]
[center]In the center of the city of Ocu lies the grand palace of the Oclium Kingdom. It's great walls of stone and red velvet banners surround the large palace. On the side a balcony protrudes from the great wall. It is lined with roses and lilies along the edges of it. A lone speaker stand is in the front of the balcony and a microphone is mounted onto it. Two guards armed in Royal Oclium Kingdom Guard uniforms stand guard at the entrance to the balcony. The people of Ocu and Oclium sit and stand on the ground beneath the balcony. The poor crowd closely to the balcony awaiting to hear the words of the Iron Prince. The rest, except for the rich, line the streets sitting and eagerly looking forward to the speech. The rich, however, clearly are distanced from the rest of the crowd. The rich watch on top of luxurious balconies or roof-tops with their wines and cheeses. The crowd talk to each other while they await for what seem hours in the heat of summer. Prince Graciano Dominguez walked out onto the balcony with a grand white robe with what seem like gold trim. He wears the crown forged from Iron and decorated with diamonds of the old crown. The crowd hush quickly as Prince Graciano Dominguez walks up to the microphone[/center]

[center]"People of Oclium," roared Prince Graciano Dominguez into the microphone, "We have won the revolution against the oppressive old dynasty. I will not let us re-live the horror of an oppressive government. We have known hardship and struggle. Families have been destroyed and communities have been torn apart by it. I myself have even experienced devastation during the war. The old dynasty murdered my sister for my disobedience! This WILL NOT happen again. I also know the struggles of the poor. During the revolution the number of poor have risen dramatically. I have in plans a new law that will help the poor of Oclium. I have walked the streets of Ocu and seen the slums and the shacks that are on the border of the city. I will begin by constructing large housing for the poor." As Prince Graciano Dominguez ended his sentence the poor of the city roared in cheer and excitement and silenced having a brief moment of joy. "That is all I can say now for I am still devolving these new laws. I also know of the great discontent with my rule and reinstating an absolute monarchy. I want Oclium, no, the world to know that I cannot rule the people as a tyrant. The current government cannot operate with this inefficient policies. I promise that within my lifetime I will see elections in the Oclium Kingdom and rebuild the government for the people! I will begin by changing our national flag to match our new kingdom." The flags of yellow and black were quickly replaced by guards to a new grey and red flag. "This is the Kingdom of Oclium and we will rebuild this country together!" The people on the crowd began to cheer out of excitement and began to cheer Prince Graciano Dominguez name. The balconies and roof-tops of the rich, however, were quiet and stares of dislike were among them.[/center]

[center]News of this quickly spread throughout the kingdom. All cheered for this news except for the rich class. The rich are quickly seeing that the Iron Prince does not have their interest. For now the rich are awaiting to see what the Prince has to offer. The reconstruction of Oclium still continues and diplomatic relations are still quiet from it's palace. Oclium hears of the large and fast growing Syndicalist revolutions and is currently just watching as the development continues.[/center]
