I, Duke Robert Kirk of Saxony, believe I should be High Chancellor, because I am an able diplomat with connections to most of the important royal families of Europe, I am steadfastly loyal to the empire and would like to keep it stable. I also know which diplomatic options would be best for the empire, and I will enforce peace and trade, and make the empire prosper. However, when an enemy has risen against us, I am not opposed to making ruthless terms so that they may never rise against us again. I am also heavily accustomed to managing lands and estates, and thus I will be able to assist the Kaiser in administrating the empire effectively and efficiently.
May God protect and Guide the Empire and Emperor.
