Jetzt ist die Kongresswahl des Kaiserreiches, in diesem Jahr Zweitausend.

Under the center-right Liberal Party and Chancellor Hans Kreutzer, the Empire of Kannex began its forays into the international community, joining the North Pacific Treaty Organization and applying to participate in the Democratic Union. Both signified Kannex's desire to participate within the international community and its growing power in the region.

Although the nationalist wing of the Liberal Party fueled the drive for expansion of the navy, military spending remained moderate in this time as Kreutzer chose a softer foreign policy. Kannex's tacit support for pro-independence Rhuvish factions was instrumental in the establishment of the Free Republic of Rhuvanland. Economically, Kreutzer kept most welfare programs intact but otherwise took a hands-off approach to the economy.

Elections for the seats in next year's National Congress is now. Your vote will decide the victors in the swing province of Hankau. Hankau's capital Lohenstadt recently saw an economic slowdown as a significant portion of its heavy-machine factories are closing. Most notably, Lohenstadt's auto companies are outsourcing to other provinces and countries. Income inequality remains a thorny issue as the inner city districts of Lohenstadt seem to house poorer and darker-skinned inhabitants while the suburbs undergo gentrification.

Meet the parties.
On a national scale as well as locally in Hankau Province, there are four major parties running for Congressional seats.
The Liberal Party is headed by the incumbent Chancellor of the Empire, Hans Kreutzer.
The Democratic Party is led by Mr. Lorenz Amano.
The Communist Party is headed by Ms. Solana Leijon.
The Fatherland Front is led by Mr. Anton Makara.

The Syrixian government wishes to know the differences between the Liberal and Democratic parties. What ideology does the Democratic Party adhere to? What are their goals?
 
The Liberals support a downsizing of welfare programs and a reform of the healthcare program to make it more efficient. Liberals desire a balanced budget and propose increases in military spending. Liberals also support the free market, moderate government intervention in the economy, and tax cuts.

The Democrats adhere to their own ideology. The positions of Party members generally range from social democracy to Third Way liberalism. Democrats desire to expand the healthcare system and welfare, but supports reforms to make services more efficient. Democrats promote private-public partnerships and public investment and government intervention in the economy. The Democrats also support higher taxes for the wealthy.

The Democrats pledge to maintain a free, fair, and transparent society based on equal opportunity and democracy, as per the post-1968 democratic tradition. Democrats believe that the government should be a helping hand to those in need and a tool of the will of the people.
 
The Fatherland Front pledges a return to the economic security and stability of the good old days. The Front recognizes that Kannex is a Christian nation and that we must restore its Protestant identity to the forefront of Kannexan politics. For too long have capitalistic politicians monopolized power in Weiterburg. We will bring meals to every working man and his family. The family is at the centerpiece of our ideology. We pledge the restoration of family values, for the Reich is but a family of families.
 
Hans Kreutzer of the Liberal Party will began another term as Chancellor following his coalition's victory in this year's Congressional elections. As before, his Liberal Party will maintain its coalition government with the Christian Social Party (Christliche-Soziale Partei), the empire's leading Catholic social-democratic party. The Democratic Party held on to most of its seats, with a slight drop, and will continue to serve as the opposition.

Herr Kreutzer has congratulations from Syrixia for winning the elections, and we hope to see much progress for our nations' foreign relations during his second term.
 
On behalf of my government I'd like to congratulate Mr. Kreutzer on his victory. I'd also like to wish him good luck and another successful term as chancellor. I look forward to working with Mr. Kreutzer on the international stage.

--Prime Minister Sydney Briggs of Plembobria
