Response to Liu Che/Zhuli:
The fact that the rules enforce gradual change is part of the problem. In real life, some things change quickly and some things change slowly. The speed of change should be based on the RP involved. You are going in circles by continuing to ask me to join a nation that is already aligned with what I want. If I did that then there would be nothing to change. What fun is that?
My RP is based on interaction with other players. For example, my party left Valruzia for fear of persecution due to religious law changes that were out of our control. I didn't make those changes, other parties did. I love interacting the other players. That is the point of any multiplayer game.
As I have already mentioned, I have no desire to change the demographics in Mordusia. My party had mostly Valruzian names because we had fled Valruzia. I was slowly Mordusianizing my party. Too slow for the rules of the game unfortunately. The rules and the way they were enforced restricted my RP. Again, that is why I'm complaining.
I don't think there is any conspiracy by more established players but another person on this thread had mentioned that, that could be an issue and maybe he/she is right. I really don't know.
Response to Doc:
If you have nothing personally invested here then why are you posting. You wouldn't be posting here if you didn't have some kind of feelings about the issue.
1) If you are going to engage in the debate you should speak properly (or in this case type properly) and not state incorrect facts, if you want people to understand what you mean. Thank you for clarifying what you meant. As for the rest of this point, I mostly agree but regime change doesn't mean everything is thrown out. Just most of it.

I said AT LEAST a few, NOT a few. As in, could be more than a few. As in, some people get into politics to make major changes. I'm not sure how this conversation relates to Obama's views on constitutional amendments. You lost me there Doc. The changes in the rules I want to see would allow me to slowly change my Valruzian names to Mordusian ones based on my RP. Also, opening up cultural protocols for easier Modification is important to me because I want to be free to properly RP and make reasonable/realistic changes in the future. Changes that make sense based on RP. Weather they are slow changes or fast ones. It should depend on the RP involved. This involves my in game party because what I am able to do now, and in the future, is based on how restrictive the rules are. Again, I am arguing for them to be less restrictive.
I don't consider the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments "pen changes." They were major "revolutionary"
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/revolution changes to the law and culture of the United States. It was at the very least, socially revolutionary and considering the constitution was changed, I would argue that it was politically revolutionary as well. The political system of slavery was completely overthrown. I see the American Civil war as a major historical event that is right up there with the events in Germany during the time of Hitler. We could argue about what was more or less important historically but I think we can agree that they were both very significant historical times. In the South, from the time of succession, until the end of the war, it was a completely different regime. I would say that qualifies as a regime change considering that the CSA considered itself an Independent country and operated as such. Even after they lost and the Union was restored, things would never be the same. I argue that the Regime changed twice in the south. The south declared independence with Jefferson Davis as the leader of the new regime, then when the war ended, the regime changed again back to the Lincoln lead Union.
"Getting into politics" could mean a lot of things. In Hitler's case, it meant creating a Totalitarian Regime. It also could describe a person running for student council at school.
I started playing in Mordusia, for the 3rd time, before I realized how restrictive the current rules were written and how strictly they would be enforced.
