I propose that an institution for the education of young men aspiring to be officers, be established in the city of Stettin. Unlike the Königliche Marineakademie (Royal Navy Academy) at Kiel, the Königliche Friedrich Krieg Hochschule's (Royal Frederick War College) purpose is to turn young men into capable officers and train them for careers within either the Army or the Navy. The curriculum will consist of military subjects such as military history and general education courses. In addition, cadets will learn two modern foreign languages. Training will last for a period of four years. Tuition will be provided by the state and in exchange, cadets are obligated to serve in the military for twelve years and a subsequent six years in the Landwehr.

Today, my beloved Uncle the King has given permission for the Siamese branch of the Hohenzollerns to return to its native Prussia.

Therefore I am very pleased to come back after so many years and when I am in Prussia, I shall reside in the Burg Hohenzollern.

Signed,

Prinz Rudolf von Preussen.

The proposal for a Secret Police in the Kingdom of Prussia which was ruled by the "Philosopher King" Frederick II, should be not allowed and there are reasons why I feel this way.

Reason #1. If we are to be a strong nation, we must be tolerant of those who have dissenting ideas.
Reason #2. Purging those who have dissenting ideas makes us look weak.
Reason #3. Those who advocate a violent overthrow of the monarchy should be allowed to air their as long as they do not harm someone. If they do harm someone they should be punished to the full extent of the law.
Reason#4. If we start a secret police we can then purge someone else's dissent, then we can do it to someone else, and then it is man against man, and then we can go back to the middle ages where bigots burned men who dared to bring enlightenment to the human race.

The Kingdom of Prussia needs a prison system to oversee the vast prisons throughout the realm , and the muncipal prisons in major cities such as Berlin. The proposal calls for the Establishment of a Royal Prison Service, which will manage these facilities and make sure Inmates are given proper care. This Prison Service will seen as a model for other prison systems around the world and will bring humane treatment to the Inmates.

As of late I have realized that the standard issue rifle is outdated and greatly inadequate. In order to rectify this discrepancy, I propose that we undertake the full implementation and mass production of the leichtes Perkussionsgewehr Model 1841 (Light Percussion Rifle Model 1841), or more commonly known as the Zündnadelgewehr (needle-gun).
