INAUGURAL ADDRESS

 

GERHARDT EUGEN SEYDLITZ
PRESIDENT OF ALDURIA

 

Placeholder for inaugural address.

[Alejandro Campos]

Former President Alejandro Campos congratulated the new President and shared some private advice with him.

Mainly, he shared as advice that he should never forget his family and to spend time with them every day, and to always stick to your principles.

[Ernesto de la Cruz]

The newly-elected Chancellor of Natopia, Ernesto de la Cruz, was in attendance, joined by his wife Adrienne, and his two children.

He took the time to convey to the newly elected President that Natopia is a strong friend of Alduria and that Natopia looks forward to seeing the new President lead Alduria.

The Natopian Chancellor was among many Natopian guests, as he was leading a delegation of Natopians like the Prince of Neridia Janus Eadric and the Titular Emperor of the Alexandrians, Francis Joseph IV, and his wife, the former Queen of Caputia.

[Natalia Cotilla]

Former Prime Minister of Alduria, Natalia Cotilla, was in attendance at the inauguration with her family.

It was a proud moment for her to see a peaceful transfer of power between an independent President and a President-elect of a different party. Democracy and the rule of law is not exactly something that is seen often around Micras, much less their Euran neighborhood. This inauguration, she thought, could set the great precedent of the peaceful transfer of power between rival political parties for Aldurian Presidents to come.

[Sean O'Callaghan]

Lord High Steward of Ransenar Sean O'Callaghan was at the inauguration, accompanied by some other Ransenari diplomatic officials.

[Marco Zimmer]

Marco Zimmer, leader of the DSP, attended the inauguration of the new President alongside his Fiancée and 4 Children.

He was pleased to see the President-elect and the President get along and hopes the Parties across the nation can do so as well to build a better nation.
