Imperial Decrees (Shireroth)/Shireroth First: A New Era of Independence and Self-Reliance

A Decree in Name of Her Imperial Magnificence

By the grace of our beloved Salome, Kaiseress of Shireroth through the intercessions of Divine Providence, we, Steward Louis Thuylemans, do hereby issue this most noble and urgent decree. Hear ye, hear ye!

For too long have foreign powers sought to exert their will upon our great nation, to undermine our sovereignty and subvert our interests. No more shall we stand idly by as these forces seek to weaken the foundations of our glorious Imperial Republic.

The following has been offered as a sign of approval by the Golden Mango Throne:

As of this day, it is decreed that all foreign companies and governments are strictly prohibited from interfering in the internal affairs of Shireroth. Any attempts to do so will be met with swift and severe consequences. The integrity of our realm must be respected, and those who would seek to compromise it will be dealt with accordingly.

Furthermore, we hereby declare that foreign organizations and companies operating within our borders must be limited in their influence and power. They shall not be permitted to acquire excessive holdings or control over our domestic industries and resources. We shall not be beholden to the whims of distant lands; our destiny shall be determined by us alone.

In light of this, we hereby mandate that domestic production and industry take precedence over all else. Our people shall labor for the betterment of our own nation, and not for the benefit of foreign powers. We shall strive towards self-sufficiency and independence, relying on our own strength and ingenuity to build a brighter future for ourselves and our children.

And so, it is also decreed that Shireroth shall formally withdraw from all military structures associated with the Raspur Pact. We shall not entangle ourselves in the conflicts of other nations, nor shall we sacrifice our sons and daughters on the altar of international diplomacy. Shireroth first! Our duty is to our own people, and to none other.

Let this decree serve as warning to any who would dare challenge our resolve. We shall not be swayed by empty words or threats. Our course is set, our hearts united behind the banner of our beloved Kaiseress. Forward, marches the Imperial Republic of Shireroth!

Given at Raynor's Keep on the Second day of the Seventh month of the Year of Our Norton Seventeen-Hundred Thirty,

SALOME
