The Act of Union and Security
A proposed amendment to our constitution would establish absolutist rule, a move which would remove many privileges from the Nobility — tax exemptions, legal immunities, and political clout — that others lack.
While passing this Act would win the hearts of the Clergy, Burghers, and Commoners, it would absolutely infuriate the Nobility, which is a dangerous thing. But having one estate in an uproar must surely be less harmful than three of them frothing up at once... right?

1353historical_info = flavor_swe.26.historical_info In response to the rising clamor for more power to the aristocracy, Gustav III appealed to the three lower estates (clergy, burghers, and peasants) of the Riksdag and in 1789 established a new constitution that augmented the royal authority. This Act of Union and Security was in effect almost a return to the days of absolutism under Charles XI and XII. It proved too much for the aristocracy, however, and the King was murdered while at the Stockholm opera house on March 16, 1792
