There is a line of thought currently being expressed by high ranking members of DAF; that Europeia is a family dynasty. Such thoughts, seem innocent at first but if taken seriously they are a serious accusation against our democracy. They are telling us that our democracy is not one in which those who are felt to be best at roles are placed in cabinet. Rather, that our government is simply one of family ties and that families are run as a pseudo political party.
These accusations erode the confidence in the integrity of the system and are telling us that our government is a place of mass corruption. Furthermore, these accusations tell us that voting is corrupt as well and that candidates such as Kraketopia have been elected previously not based on their merits but rather based on their family ties. Not based on Kraketopias work in the region and his successes in a variety of fields, or his quick ascent into politics but rather on who he knows.
Such accusations have no place in our society, we are a society based on a mixture of meritocracy as well as popularity. Our region is one of the best when it comes to it's cold political that operates at such a level as to necessitate the best. Could you imagine a President appointing a weaker Minister because of family ties? To suggest such self-inflicted sabotage is bizarre. The margins are razor thin and a President must do what he must do in order to have as much success as possible.
One of the biggest differences between the stable democracies and the unstable democracies is the quality and respect people have for the institutions. People do not hold on to power, or refuse to believe election results and people do not corrupt the system on the scale seen in unstable democracies. I do not want to see the level of political rhetoric in the region reduced to accusations for the sake of political desperation.
I believe that Europeia is too intelligent to fall for such tactics.

The Shaw Family 
From the bathtub of Huxwells Shaw Founding Brother of the Shaw Family Shaw Family SynopsisSacred Family Founding Story Once upon a time, not so very long ago, two Brothers-in-Arms started their adventure in a place called Europeia. In their joint battle for democracy and equality, they fought the fiercest of enemies and defended the poorest of people. Travelling the hills and plains (and don't forget the rainbows) of Europeia for more than a month, the two brothers had already seen a lot of corruption and terror. They had dueled with Julian Anumia and his clan of crazy Amish people that wanted to spread their wisdom all over the world. After escaping from their marble hands, they had ended up being hunted by the headshrinking Vinage tribe. Evading their stones and arrows, the Brothers had yet again escaped an agonizing death. Finally they got a little bit tired and decided to sit down, wondering how they could strengthen what they still thought was a cause worth fighting for.
As they sat there, watching the slow current of a river – a divine light appeared at the horizon, rushing for them. They did not know how to react, but felt soothed as the thing drew closer by. The illumination landed in between them, urging them, silently, to walk towards it. Both brothers did so and as they walked further into the light, they could literally see all of the knowledge in the Universe. They were immersed in this world where it seemed that everything was possible and they knew that now was the time to create alliances. They knew that their brotherhood was strong, but would not be strong enough.
The immersion ended suddenly and the light was gone, yet not entirely. Both Artimis and Huxwells Shaw were now carrying a sparkle of it in their eyes. More confident than ever before, the Brothers-in-Arms finally went forth into the lands of Europeia – convinced that they would find strong sons and daughters that were willing to fight for the same ideals. Soon after, Huxwells had to sneeze due to hay fever. What happened went beyond imagination. Three human beings had sprung from his nose, kneeled in front of him. "I am your loyal and intelligent daughter, Charlotte", said the first one. "I am your son, the brave Katepano", stated the second. "I am... well I am Francis, your son", so said the last one. Huxwells quickly told them to rise to their knees, as he knew this wasn't a coincidence.
Not too much later, Artimis thought it was time to clip his toenails - even a brave soldier has to do this sometimes, right? As it had happened with Huxwells, Artimis saw two human beings rising from the first two nails. They appeared to go by the name of Nacek and Castor. Artimis too told them to rise and join their cause.
After a tiresome party in the Europeian disco (Kaiser just raged on and on about how shiny his helmet was), both Artimis and Huxwells were stumbling home with Demataria. Waking up the next morning, Huxwells had realised how good a friend Demataria was - he had even taken off his pants for him! Thus the Brothers-in-Arms went to knock on Dem's door to ask him whether he wanted to join in on their cause. Demataria accepted and would from then on be a Grand Maester to the noble, yet mocking, family called Shaw.
27/08/2013, Huxwells Shaw On this day, 28th August 2013, Artimis and Huxwells Shaw, Founding Brothers of the Shaw Family and the First of Their Name, Hereby announces that They intend to establish a New Family in Our Grand Realm. Both Artimis and Huxwells Shaw saw the need for a Family that unites truly intelligent People that fight for Democracy and wish to Mock all other Families. They shall Both go by the Name of “Founding Brother”. Charlotte, a New yet Very Dedicated Member of our Region shall be Adopted by Huxwells Shaw and thus become his Heiress. Katepano and Francis, both very Promising Newcomers shall also be Adopted by Huxwells Shaw. Nacek and Castor, two Enthousiastic Newcomers that Teach at the University, shall be Adopted by Artimis Shaw. Nacek shall also become his Heir. As a Great Friend and Brilliant Politician, Demataria shall join the Family as Grand Maester. An Honorary Name that places him next to both Artimis and Huxwells Shaw. He too now goes by the Name of Shaw. All Members of the Shaw Family can, but will never be obliged to, wear the Name Shaw. There are only two Rules as to Being a Shaw. Firstly, A Shaw always Strives to Mock other Families. Secondly, A Shaw never Marries or Adopts an Indidvidual that already wears another Family Name. Should the Powers that be in Europeia find this Announcement suitable, Family Shaw requests that this Registration is processed immediately.
Extra information: The True Joy in Life, Poem about our Family Shield This is the true joy in life, being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one. Being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as I live it is my privilege - my privilege to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I love. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me; it is a sort of splendid torch which I've got a hold of for the moment and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations. - George Bernard Shaw Family Tree [/hide][/hide]

Thank you for your intelligent and salient response. Sorry. I'm about to go to bed and those were mostly notes for myself. I'll respond lengthier tomorrow if you'd like. Keep in mind though, this article kind of lumps mine and Zenny's opinions together although they may differ. I haven't really followed her and your discussion so I might be responding to the wrong arguments, and I hope possible emotions don't carry over to me.

It didnt seem to bother them both when they lobbied for Kraketopia last election that he has family ties to Anumia. And it shouldnt. There is no proof that family ties make anyone more or less likely to hold a position (after all Ive held a few and Im not related to the Anumia clan). You know why so many people in Europeias government past and present have ties to the Anumia family? Because damn near everybody is a member of that family. They are adoption whores. It has f**k all to do with politics.

If you really think about it, people want Cabinet ministers that they get along with and who are qualified for the job. Incidentally, if you're part of the "let's adopt everyone and their uncle" Anumia family, you're probably going to adopt people that you get along with.

The Shaw Family 
From the bathtub of Huxwells Shaw Founding Brother of the Shaw Family Shaw Family SynopsisSacred Family Founding Story Once upon a time, not so very long ago, two Brothers-in-Arms started their adventure in a place called Europeia. In their joint battle for democracy and equality, they fought the fiercest of enemies and defended the poorest of people. Travelling the hills and plains (and don't forget the rainbows) of Europeia for more than a month, the two brothers had already seen a lot of corruption and terror. They had dueled with Julian Anumia and his clan of crazy Amish people that wanted to spread their wisdom all over the world. After escaping from their marble hands, they had ended up being hunted by the headshrinking Vinage tribe. Evading their stones and arrows, the Brothers had yet again escaped an agonizing death. Finally they got a little bit tired and decided to sit down, wondering how they could strengthen what they still thought was a cause worth fighting for.
As they sat there, watching the slow current of a river – a divine light appeared at the horizon, rushing for them. They did not know how to react, but felt soothed as the thing drew closer by. The illumination landed in between them, urging them, silently, to walk towards it. Both brothers did so and as they walked further into the light, they could literally see all of the knowledge in the Universe. They were immersed in this world where it seemed that everything was possible and they knew that now was the time to create alliances. They knew that their brotherhood was strong, but would not be strong enough.
The immersion ended suddenly and the light was gone, yet not entirely. Both Artimis and Huxwells Shaw were now carrying a sparkle of it in their eyes. More confident than ever before, the Brothers-in-Arms finally went forth into the lands of Europeia – convinced that they would find strong sons and daughters that were willing to fight for the same ideals. Soon after, Huxwells had to sneeze due to hay fever. What happened went beyond imagination. Three human beings had sprung from his nose, kneeled in front of him. "I am your loyal and intelligent daughter, Charlotte", said the first one. "I am your son, the brave Katepano", stated the second. "I am... well I am Francis, your son", so said the last one. Huxwells quickly told them to rise to their knees, as he knew this wasn't a coincidence.
Not too much later, Artimis thought it was time to clip his toenails - even a brave soldier has to do this sometimes, right? As it had happened with Huxwells, Artimis saw two human beings rising from the first two nails. They appeared to go by the name of Nacek and Castor. Artimis too told them to rise and join their cause.
After a tiresome party in the Europeian disco (Kaiser just raged on and on about how shiny his helmet was), both Artimis and Huxwells were stumbling home with Demataria. Waking up the next morning, Huxwells had realised how good a friend Demataria was - he had even taken off his pants for him! Thus the Brothers-in-Arms went to knock on Dem's door to ask him whether he wanted to join in on their cause. Demataria accepted and would from then on be a Grand Maester to the noble, yet mocking, family called Shaw.
27/08/2013, Huxwells Shaw On this day, 28th August 2013, Artimis and Huxwells Shaw, Founding Brothers of the Shaw Family and the First of Their Name, Hereby announces that They intend to establish a New Family in Our Grand Realm. Both Artimis and Huxwells Shaw saw the need for a Family that unites truly intelligent People that fight for Democracy and wish to Mock all other Families. They shall Both go by the Name of “Founding Brother”. Charlotte, a New yet Very Dedicated Member of our Region shall be Adopted by Huxwells Shaw and thus become his Heiress. Katepano and Francis, both very Promising Newcomers shall also be Adopted by Huxwells Shaw. Nacek and Castor, two Enthousiastic Newcomers that Teach at the University, shall be Adopted by Artimis Shaw. Nacek shall also become his Heir. As a Great Friend and Brilliant Politician, Demataria shall join the Family as Grand Maester. An Honorary Name that places him next to both Artimis and Huxwells Shaw. He too now goes by the Name of Shaw. All Members of the Shaw Family can, but will never be obliged to, wear the Name Shaw. There are only two Rules as to Being a Shaw. Firstly, A Shaw always Strives to Mock other Families. Secondly, A Shaw never Marries or Adopts an Indidvidual that already wears another Family Name. Should the Powers that be in Europeia find this Announcement suitable, Family Shaw requests that this Registration is processed immediately.
Extra information: The True Joy in Life, Poem about our Family Shield This is the true joy in life, being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one. Being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as I live it is my privilege - my privilege to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I love. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me; it is a sort of splendid torch which I've got a hold of for the moment and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations. - George Bernard Shaw Family Tree [/hide][/hide]
