Area Bureaucracy Just One More Form Away From Hitting Admin Cap, Imploding

Ethir officials have pleaded with pops not to file any further government forms due to the risk of tipping the empire over its administrative capacity.

“We’re in a really precarious situation right now,” bureaucrat Ib-Na told Xenonion, “if we have to process even one more form, our bureaucracy will literally collapse.”

Insider sources at the empire’s Bureau of Bureaucracy have warned that regional administrative offices are being stretched to breaking point after government officials enacted a spate of new edicts covering almost thirty planets.

“It’s just a perfect storm”, Ib-Na continued, “somehow we have to organize pan-empire breeding programs, farming subsidies and increase political thought, all while the end of our tax year approaches.”

Citizens have taken a mostly ambivalent stance towards the emergency message. Flor-No, an area technician, stated: “Look, I’m filing the paperwork to rename my cat whether they like it or not.”

Ethir bureaucrats have not confirmed how they will proceed, but did advise they would be testing the effectiveness of their emergency message by sending every citizen a thirteen page feedback form to complete.
