Legate Dralson, ex-Dino Army and Security CouncilRonald is returning to the front-line of Dino politics. It has been so secret for a while now that Ronald was planning a run in the next Consul election (and he will win, lets face it) but yesterday his party Imperial Order confirmed that they were not thinking about any other candidates.
So Ronald will be Consul for 2112 to 2113. What does this actually mean? Many people will assume it is just a cosmetic posting as he effectively runs the Dino Republic behind the scenes anyway, along with MBH. However that is not totally true, the Consuls have the power of veto and latitude in directing policy.
With the DTA now up and running Ronald now wants to really cement the organisation as the future of Dino political and military power and Dino geopolitical policy. Let us not forget that the DTA is only a few months old and will require a lot of hard work over the next couple of years to build the infrastructure required. Ronald wants to personally direct this work.
The DTA is Ronald's ultimate project, that is becoming clear now. For over a decade he has worried about his legacy and how the Dinos will develop after he finally stands down for good. He has tried various political systems and seems happy enough with the dual Consul system though he wants to change the old isolationist view of the Dinos and put them at the heart of a powerful intergalactic alliance. The DTA is Ronald's final gift to the Dino people and thus he wants to make sure it is right.
We can expect a lot of changes over the next couple of years with Ronald in charge. Expect MBH to also take his turn at the top too. They both share this vision, the ultimate irony after decades of opposition. A vision for the Dinos, with the DTA, to dominate local space.
