Introduction
Citizens of Mistral I am Alicia Odahviing and as some of you know the CEO and owner of Odahviing transports and now your new candidate for the mistral council. I am a Mistralian by birth and by heart and so allow me to entertain you with the beautiful art of speaking to let you know what needs to be done to raise up our beautiful kingdom out of the grave we are digging ourselves into.
So mistral head my words and aid me, together we will heal the wounds left untreated for generations.
A country with a free mind but shackled body
Mistral is the home to the very concept of expressing yourself and so we have always been the center of the freedom in art. Despite that we have one of the most dark and confining Histories as we played a important role in the faunus slave trade and while I would like to say that it ended when slavery was abolished after the Great War yet remnants of it still lives on inside our kingdom. How is this possible in our modern times? The answer is as easy as it is frightening the council has so little control over what happens in the underbelly of the kingdom that there is nothing they can do to stop it. However if you me I vow to take every step possible in the direction to end this menace once and for all
Crime
As mention Mistral has unfortunately a rather big time problem as the criminal underbelly is completely out of control. In the capital it has gone so far the law enforcement isn’t sent to the lower levels but rather are focused on keeping the criminal presence from climbing into the towel levels owned by the rich and mighty. Because of this we leave the most vulnerable and poor to suffer at the hands of ruthless cromada of the lower levels. Something must be done this can’t go on any further. Now credit must be given where credit is earned, over the years the council has tried dealing with the crime problem. However their attempt of simply cracking down on crime has proven ineffective as we do not have enough resources to simply eradicate crime, this left us begging atlas for help an embarrassment for our kingdom. Now what I want to do differently is focus on rehabilitating the criminals and once they have been rehabilitated they could be put into the law enforcement themselves. Slowly and steadily we will pull out piece by piece of the underbelly and turning it against itself until the situation is under control. It may be a slow process but I promise to reduce the underground belly by at least a third.
Improve the infrastructure
Despite being the largest of the four kingdom Mistral is not known as the industrial global super power it could be instead people look to atlas for their wanted products. While I mean no harm to the flying city or their kingdom but it is time to take our place in the top of the pecking order. To this this the infrastructure of the kingdom must be improved, safer and better roads more factories and production all over the kingdom. Further more we are in need of good benefits for companies to pick Mistral over atlas or vale for example, some companies has seen what we have to offer but once again we need to get better. Unfortunately due to the tragic situation with crime the plans to improve are going to have to be put as a longtime investment but I can see where there needs improving and I will fight to get it done so long as I am i council.
Foreign politics
Now one of the major talking points and debates outside is the conflicts and tensions around the islands between mistral and vale as both our nations have tried settle and claim this land for their own. In this situation there three and only three things to consider. The people of mistral are proud and we should not bend to the whims of others. Because of this it is important that we do not back away from the claims on these islands but at same time it is important that we understand that avoiding causing a big international incident. The last thing we want is another Great War and it must be avoided while still avoiding lowering the rights of the mistralian people. The last thing to take note of is that however the conflict is resolved it must be down while causing as little griefs and anger as possible, even if we would get all the land if all the grief just causes more Grimm to show and then make the territory impossible to handle. So a good communication between mistral and vale is important but so is not backing down.
Final words
Mistral has deep wounds from the criminal underworld and the last councils have treated it like an infection and tried severing the arm. However the infected wounds of the country must be treated like a sickness and togetherness shall heal it.
Vote for the girl with the broken hands so we may heal together
