His bills were widely popular, the citizens service act, although not in effect till september first, would help grow the nation to further continue on its path, and its place in the sun. The University of Karino was erected, a new government building, the National hall was also built. the industrial growth of the Imperial era continued, as macina grew into a real city, The Estirian homestead act expanded the Karinoan frontier and began to tame it as Estiria grew. by the August elections, the MAU-DNP coalition was handily re-elected, however with signifcantly smaller turnout.
