As a matter of fact, I have a little concern about this Bill - mainly because it seems to go a good deal further than reflecting on the elevation of the Crown Duchy into the Royal Tsardom. A matter of exceptional concern is the amendment in Article 5. What do my noble Counts think of this?

I see no reason to deny the Tsar his right to maintain this Framework of Law as he sees fit. He and his family rightfully rule Egale within the Marches. Egale exists at the pleasure of the Tsarski Throne. It would be an awkward position for Egale's counts to enact a fundamental change in Egale's constitution that does not meet the approval of the Tsar.

As Countess of the River Egale, I support these amendments.

In which cause, I suppose that the noble Counts would wish to vote on the matter?
