Salutem dicō, cīvēs Rōmae.

Ego solus plenam responsabilitātem pro praesentibus rerum condicionibus sustineō. Per errōrēs meōs ad discrīmen sine exemplō pervēnimus, atque iam nimium grave sacrificium ex populō nostrō exactum est.

Itaque, ut Prōtector Ecclēsiae Unificātae atque Autocrātor Senātūs Populīque Rōmānī,capitulātiōnem sine condicionibus SPQR hāc hōrā efficācem esse sollemniter prōnuntiō.

Omnēs cōpiae exercitūs, classis, aeriae potestātis, corporisque Knightmare atque omnēs mīlitiae statim consistere iubentur.Iterum dīcō: arma deponite. Duces unitātum prō suīs cōpiīs dēditionem faciant. Bellum nunc confectum est.

Praetereā sollemniter iūrō me, foedere pācis perfectō, imperium in favōrem fīliae meae, Lilliae, Principis Hērēdis, abdīcātūrum esse.

Britanniae dīcō: vīcistīs.Rōgō ut indūtiās servētis, pacta pācis futūra observētis, atque in rebus humānitāriīs plēnē cooperēminī.

Postrēmō, Foederātiōnem Sīnicam sollemniter petō ut pācis tractātiōnēs mediārī velit.

Χαίρετε, πολῖται τῆς Ῥώμης.

Ἐγὼ μόνος πᾶσαν τὴν εὐθύνην φέρω περὶ τῶν παρόντων πραγμάτων. Διὰ τὰς ἐμὰς ἁμαρτίας εἰς κρίσιν ἄνευ προηγουμένου ἥκομεν, καὶ θυσία βαρυτάτη ἤδη ἀπὸ τοῦ λαοῦ ἀπῃτήθη.

Διὸ, ὡς Προστάτης τῆς Ἡνωμένης Ἐκκλησίας καὶ Αὐτοκράτωρ τοῦ Senatus Populusque Romanus,τὴν ἄνευ ὅρων παράδοσιν τοῦ SPQR νῦν κηρύσσω, εὐθὺς ἰσχύουσαν.

Πᾶσαι αἱ δυνάμεις τοῦ στρατοῦ, τοῦ ναυτικοῦ, τῆς ἀεροπορίας, τοῦ σώματος τῶν Knightmare καὶ πᾶσαι αἱ πολιτοφυλακαίεὐθέως παυσάσθωσαν.Πάλιν λέγω· καταθέσατε τὰ ὅπλα.Οἱ διοικηταὶ ὑπὲρ τῶν μονάδων αὐτῶν παραδοθήτωσαν.Ὁ πόλεμος νῦν τετέλεσται.

Ἔτι δὲ ὀμνύω ὅτι, γενομένης τῆς εἰρήνης, παραιτήσομαι τῆς ἀρχῆς ὑπὲρ τῆς θυγατρὸς μου, τῆς διαδόχου πριγκιπίσσης Λίλλης.

Πρὸς Βρεταννίαν λέγω· νενικήκατε.Αἰτῶ ὑμᾶς τὰς σπονδὰς τηρεῖν, τὰ μέλλοντα εἰρηνευτικὰ συμφωνήματα φυλάττειν, καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἀνθρωπιστικοῖς πράγμασι πλήρως συνεργάζεσθαι.

Τέλος, τὴν Κινεζικὴν Ὁμοσπονδίαν ἐπισήμως παρακαλῶ μεσιτεύειν τὰς εἰρηνευτικὰς διαπραγματεύσεις.

Greetings. Citizens of Rome.

I alone bear full responsibility for our present circumstances. Through my misjudgements, we have reached an unprecedented crisis, and far too great a sacrifice has already been demanded.

Accordingly, as Protector of the Unified Church and Autokrator of the Senatus Populusque Romanus, I hereby declare the unconditional surrender of the SPQR, effective immediately.

All units of the Army, Navy, Air Force, the Knightmare Corps, and all militias are ordered to stand down at once. I repeat: lay down your arms. Unit commanders are to surrender on behalf of their forces. The war is now over.

I further solemnly swear that, upon the conclusion of a peace treaty, I will abdicate in favour of my daughter, Crown Princess Lilly.

To Britannia: you have won. I ask that you observe the ceasefire, adhere to the forthcoming peace settlement, and cooperate fully in the humanitarian arrangements to follow.

Finally, I formally request the Chinese Federation to mediate the peace negotiations.

Saludos, ciudadanos de Roma.

Yo solo asumo plena responsabilidad por nuestras presentes circunstancias. Por mis errores de juicio, hemos llegado a una crisis sin precedentes, y un sacrificio demasiado grave ya ha sido exigido a nuestro pueblo.

Por consiguiente, como Protector de la Iglesia Unificada y Autócrata del *Senatus Populusque Romanus*, declaro solemnemente la rendición incondicional del SPQR, con efecto inmediato.

Todas las unidades del Ejército, la Armada, la Fuerza Aérea, el Cuerpo de Knightmare y todas las milicias reciben la orden de cesar sus operaciones de inmediato. Repito: depongan las armas. Los comandantes de unidad deberán rendirse en nombre de sus fuerzas. La guerra ha terminado.

Además, juro solemnemente que, una vez concluido el tratado de paz, abdicaré en favor de mi hija, la Princesa Heredera Lilly.

A Britannia digo: habéis vencido. Os pido que respetéis el alto el fuego, cumpláis el futuro acuerdo de paz y cooperéis plenamente en los arreglos humanitarios que seguirán.

Finalmente, solicito formalmente a la Federación China que medie en las negociaciones de paz.
