Louisian Decree

(WIP) The Louisian Decree (Cibolan-Saxon: Louisenerlass), officially titled as the Erlass zur Behebung der Rechtsstatus der Louisen und Louisesprachig Volk in den Vereinigte Fürstentümer (Common Tongue: Decree to Remedy the Legal Status of the Lousians and Louisian-Speaking People in the United Principalities) is a royal decree passed by Ludwig I in order to grant citizenship and citizenship rights to the Louisian population of the United Principalities. It was passed at the height of the Louisian crisis, where the Imperial Senate found itself at odds with itself over whether or not to grant citizenship to the several thousand Louisian people residing in the UPC. Although unpopular among the Imperial Senators, Ludwig made it clear that any criticisms of the edict should be kept private unless the offending members be outed as disobeying royal orders.
