* FriendlyNeighborhoodSpider: For all of history, the spiders of Eygsic have been part of Deponya, serving as lifetime companions, weavers in the textile workshops, hidden scouts for the yeomares and mounts for the Keepers.

* VoluntaryVassal: If Bray Foam's Revolutionary Orthodoxy is at least 50% and Caramel Haze is leading the River Republic, the two nations will unite, leading to game over if Bakara is controlled by a human player.



* ChummyCommies: Applethorn's socialist policies are overall really positive for the people of Farbrook, granting many useful industry bonuses to the backwards nation ([[{{Technophobia}} at the cost of some stability]]). At the bare minimum, she is not a naive WideEyedIdealist like Hempstrand.

* CorruptPolitician: Fraud and embezzlement are commonplace in Lakeish politics.



* ExternalCombustion: The previous Grand Mayor of Lake City was killed in a car explosion in 1004.



* ReluctantRuler: Heavenly Snow is less than enthusiastic about having to return to his ancestors' throne; Wild Tree has to kidnap his wife and force him to accept the crown if he wants to see her again.



* ObliviouslyEvil: Eadberhta, a libertarian, believes that everypony in the Republic has the same rights, same liberties, same chances and only needs to work for it if they wanted better living standards, unaware that in the absence of worker's rights, inequality and poverty are rampant. When Voliare returns home and calls this out, Eadberhta sees his point and agrees to implement a minimum wage.

* TheCoup: In the purists' path, the purists led by General Andreia attempt a military coup, seeking support from the Chief of Army (elected in an earlier event). The coup can either succeed or fail depending on who is the Chief of Army.

* AppropriatedAppellation: The term ''night-watchpony state'' was coined by a Bakaran socialist who was criticising Tea Dip's vision of small government, comparing it to a night-watchpony whose sole duty was preventing theft. Far from being offended, Tea Dip embraced the phrase and believes it an apt summation of the BSP's end goal.

->'''In-Game Biography''' [[labelnote:Click to Show]]Springtime Frost was destined to balance the nation by virtue of not rocking the boat. He was spoken well of in class and in his later career of Demokratski politicking thanks to agreeing to almost everyone's points of view while rarely voicing out his own. To his credit, he took joy in being a silent workhorse while everypony else spewed their bluster out.\\\
But in 1004, the socially liberal Dew Point, the previous leader of the Demokratski as well as Grand Mayor of Lake City, died in a car explosion. Springtime publicly questioned the circumstances of Dew's death, but under-the-table deals and threats of "going out the same way" had him bow his head, join the party's snap elections, and sit on top of both party and country. Still, even as Springtime pushed for small-step reforms, he couldn't stop the Cehovi and military high command from snooping in on him with guns and money, politely asking for his support or else. Thus, the status quo has been maintained.\\\
As the last leg of his party leadership-and his Lakeish presidency-runs its course, one thing Springtime kept close to heart is a genuine concern for his loved ones and his own life. The military had been merciful to let him not run for re-election and to keep all cars from exploding in his vicinity. All he has to do is to placate the shady muzzles while passing just enough reforms to legitimise democracy, and he can fade into the obscurity of a much safer career, like gardening.[[/labelnote]]
