Literally already have for the past couple years. The leader of their party is already on house arrest (technically) for stealing EU funds.

POV: Your body decided it would get an illness that renders you bedridden unable to speak and functionally deaf at a young age. And all you really have is memories from before. You never really get “new memories”.

Yeah it could have been a Rommel type situation.
