Address from the Seigneurs Chamber to the citizens of Gallic Union [NO COMMENTING]

People of Gallia,

It has been only a short time since treacherous Sirians attacked our House unprovoked, and wounded our Nation, while the supposedly moral ones were watching and did nothing. Our pleas for aid have fallen on deaf ears. You have followed their rules, and complied with their requests, only to get stabbed in the back.

Now they gather at our borders under the guise of a so called 'Defensive Pact' against Gallia. They preach that this pact is for the safety of the region -- for their own safety, I am sure, but little do they care about Gallia and its prosperity. They use this pact to further their demands on our Nation, and sanction us when we do not bow. Do you want to pay for the upkeep of their crumbling spatial infrastructure? Do you want to pay them so they can rebuild the vessels they used to invade our House?

Difficult times lie ahead of us. They will try to divide us and manipulate us against each other. They will want to exploit our own resources and economy to mend their failing states.

For this very reason, we must stand united for the good of Gallia. Soldiers and civilians, nobles and commoners -- side by side, working together to safeguard our Nation. We must put aside our differences and redouble our efforts. We welcome those who will come to our aid and reject those who work against us. Our ancestors worked hard to turn Gallia into a powerful House, and we must continue their legacy, no matter the setbacks we had suffered, and will suffer.

Only the strong and confident GALLIC NATION will have a prosperous future in this otherwise hostile sector.
