The German Empire is my heart. We march this day forward to greater purpose. Thanks to all the support of my most excellent staff The German Empire will rise beyond what is expected. I would also like to thank everyone of our friends of other alliances showing me great support, and encouragement. Its time to get to work here at TGE.

I will be glad to take any questions.

Congrats on your promotion, this world needs more Kings. Your first act as King should be changing your abbreviation to TGE in my opinion, it would do you guys a lot of good.

Anyone else get the feeling TGE is just turning into a mini Nordreich?

Just because some former members of NoR took up the TGE name and recreated the alliance as a puppet state for them doesn't have to make them a mini Nordreich. :P

Please continue announcing things every day.

I think we might - it keeps the rest of you on your toes. Besides, Bob needs some more activity and involvement.

This

In the matter of rapid cycles of government this version certainly hasn't deviated from the standard set by previous incarnations.

*notices AA* Somebody is upset about the way their war is going :awesome:

-------

The above two clowns aside, most posters have been extremely kind, and I want to extend my heartfelt thanks for all the support The German Empire has had as we slowly work through these little growing pains and come into our own as a truly [i]reformed[/i] alliance. With an AA like ours, there are going to be hiccups and bumps, but this will likely be the last major change we see as we look forward to a stable and prosperous 2012 under our new Kaiser and Reichskanzler and a very able and dedicated House of Lords.

Not at all. I'm quite enjoying destroying the NoR pawns thrown my way; have yet to see anyone from yours step up to the plate.

I didn't like you guys when I was in INT either. This TGE is a flat out mockery of everything the old one stood for (not that I'm at all glorifying the previous one's failings though).
