But they knew that these events were simply not enough, the people of Kalpia were still lacking in what the Fatherland's Party referred to patriotic knowledge and said knowledge must be taught in the schools, history of Kalpia, major literary figures of Kalpia, the military heroes of the Kalpian army, etc. Thus they proposed to the Congress to not only increase the budget for education but to also change the curriculum for both primary education and secondary education, and NGO's dedicated to promoting Kalpian nationalism in the younger generations. This would, of course, be heavily debated by the Democratic Party, People's Party and Socialist Party. All of them with values that certainly opposed the nationalism that was seemingly proposed by the Fatherland's Party, however, the conservative coalition agreed to a compromise, as such, patriotism and civic duty were to be part of the curriculum. Because for the liberals, the people couldn't be forced upon one nationality or the other, rather they had a democratic society in which they could voluntary vote or not. Debate continued the following week and it was divided to promote liberal nationalistic values along with some affinity towards the appreciation of the military, as it was an aspect fundamental to the survival of Kalpia. Thus it was agreed that it wasn't the land nor the ethnicity that made the Kalpian nation but rather the society as a whole, the Parisians, Garmans, Virisians and Kalpians, all of them working together and making use of their rights to vote and to express were the Kalpian Nation. The approval of this legislature was so high, that it is expected a large raise in the budget for education.

It was indeed a war that it's better to see with sorrow than with pride and glory, for many mistakes were made. Yet, their sacrifice was not in vain, it was for the people of Kalpia that they fought and died, even with bad odds, they fought knowing that there was a clear reason to be fighting in Zellonian. Said reason was to ensure the free trade in the strait, a strait that helped the Kalpian economy and that otherwise would prove a huge strain in the economy and in turn the people. The Fatherland's party was the first to propose a memorial for the fallen just after the end of the 2nd Liubeth Conference, it was to be built in Liubeth, where the many soldiers had sailed out to Zellonia, the 23rd Division was to be present the day of the inauguration with a special place for Gotthard the commander of the division. A budget was approved and the construction started. [center]
