Tender Branson, President for Life: Tender Branson becomes President for life of Austria. If he dies any other way than natural causes, his family gets the office in hereditary fashion a la North Korea. He cannot be removed for any misconduct while in office, no matter what, not even if Brussels wants him to leave office. His constitutional powers can not be reduced.

Hapsburg Restoration: The Hapsburg dynasty is restored as Head of State, and a UK-style constitutional monarchy is guaranteed for 99 years, at least.

This should be fun. Tongue

Not a Habsburg (why does everyone always misspell it? Huh) fan at all, but considering the alternative...

Habsburgs are utter scum in every respect whose remaining properties should be expropriated. Vote Tender, barricade myself in the Karl-Marx-Hof and let's make sure the right side win this time.


Fair enough in English.

UK-style constitutional monarchy, is that less democratic than someone like Tender being President for Life?

Uh, the Austro-Hungaric Empire was not exactly a "UK-style constitutional monarchy".

Wow it's almost like he didn't say that at all and the first post simply said that this Hapsburg restoration would be.

Reading is hard. :/

Almost as hard as spelling "Habsburg" correctly!
