The People shall govern!
All National groups shall have equal wrights!

All shall be equal before the law!
There shall be peace and friendship!
There shall be houses, security and comfort!
The land shall be shared amongst those who work it!
The doors of learning and culture shall be opened!
There shall be work and security!
All shall enjoy equal human rights!
