I woke up this morning dreading the outcome of the election of our new prime minister to represent Parlament von Dorstenland. Our nation suffered deeply when Prime Minister Hans Northcott attempted last year to overthrow King Jonas and the monarchy. Northcott influenced his political party, Neu Christlich Demokratische Partei Dorstenlands, to do his bidding in parliament and in a small fraction of our military. Following the events that crushed Northcott’s ambitions, King Jonas was legally authorized to rule our nation, including Parlament von Dorstenland, until new elections were held, as per Dorstenland’s constitution.

Our citizens voted to fill the seats of parliament with party members from Königliche Volkspartei (KVP), Königliche Sozialdemokratische Partei (KSDP), and Verfassungspartei des Fortschritts (VPF). The election results certified centrist party, KVP, with 72% of the votes, followed by centrist party, KSDP, with 19%, and center-left party, VPF, with 9% of the votes. Northcott’s far-right wing party, NCD, had been banned permanently throughout Dorstenland due to the party’s involvement in the attempted coup.

This evening as the sun over the parliament building in Eberbach, parliament elected our nation’s first female prime minister. Tomorrow, Jonas will officiate the oath of office ceremony to confirm Sabine Keller, as Ministerpräsidentin des Königreichs Dorstenland.

Following the election, KVP announced their party’s official new motto, “Tradition, Freiheit, Einheit” – “Tradition, Liberty, Unity”.

Long live the Kingdom of Dorstenland! Long live King Jonas!
