I, Rolf de Contentin, duke of Saxony, hereby stand for the position of king of the Germans. I am the most powerful man in Germany, and I rule with an iron fist, but I am just. I am a devout Catholic and adhere to his Holiness' will, as you have probably seen by my instigation and participation of the Great Northern Crusade. I swear that I shall be a generous and fair ruler, protecting Germany from outside and inside threats, and allowing it to prosper and thrive. I put down the rebellious count of Baden! I took the fight to the Pagans! Our enemies shall be cast aside, or cast down! that is my word, and my word is iron!
