Further Educational Reforms

A few weeks had passed since the day that Berengar had legalized polygamy within the Kingdom of Austria. The legalization of polygamy came as a great shock to the people of Austria, and many traditionalists were entirely against the idea. As such, they had gathered in the streets to make their complaints known to the Crown.

However, these peaceful protests were quickly snuffed out; while Berengar could have used overwhelming force to crush the voices of dissent, he decided on a more subtle method. He had empowered a countermovement of young men and women who embraced the lifestyle to kick the old farts out of the streets and shame them for being unpatriotic. 

The motto used in the propaganda to enforce Berengar's will within the minds of the people was ripped straight from the bible and had become the chant of the young couples who had embraced this new law. Over time, it became merged with another slogan rising in popularity among polygamists.
