Page 21A micronation which's territory, or mainland, consists solely of a single bedroom, or (sometimes) a handful of rooms. [First attested before 29 October 2000 by Robert Ben Madison, Ar Pdts: A Complete History of the Kingdom of Talossa (part one: "The Spirit of ' 79"); so-called because the bedroom is most often claimed due to being the micronational leader's personal (private) room. |

Page 26the Kingdom of Talossa; derivative ("something which is derived") + -ism ("a belief, practice, or movement associated with the root word"); so-called for a micronation that derives from a macronation (as opposed to a micronation that does not formally declare independence, such as one following peculiarism or simulationism).]
Page 85[First attested 14 August 1999, Usenet; nation + -ette ("diminutive for a smaller version of something"); literally "miniature country"; perhaps influenced by the nickname for Talossa in Talossan English, nationette, first attested October 1993. ]

Page 90A micropatriological position which holds that, while a micronation may physically exist, it should still be able to have exaggerated or fictionalised elements, especially for recreation or entertainment; contrasts derivatism.

Page 118The commercialisation and spread of the Internet from 1995 onwards may very well have revived micronationalism. Especially influential was the first webpage dedicated solely to micronationalism: the Micronations Page. Registered sometime between 15 January*4 and 1 April 1996,°5 it was maintained by Robert Ben Madison of the Kingdom of Talossa. It consisted of an overview of the topic and included a list of micronations, each marked by Madison's own classification system of seriousness. Heavily referenced were How to Start Your Own Country and the Ephemeral States file which had influenced Madison and the layout of the webpage; he regarded the website as a continuation of Strauss' work.36

Page 11834 The Kingdom of Talossa launched its first website on 15 January 1996 (https://web.archive.org/web/ 20010601212552/http://www.capitalnet.com/~dave/arpats/arpats25.htm); it potentially predated the Micronations Page.

Quote from: Barclamïu da Miéletz on July 07, 2025, 11:25:04 AMI have the sheet music actually, I got the audio from Musescore.

Cool - I think I jumped only to the middle of this thread when using my phone browser.  Again, thanks for your efforts!

Barclamïu, thanks for your efforts on this. I can fumble through to make sheet music of the rest when that comes to pass although I'm not adept at key signatures and the like but hope that software could handle it.  That said, you might be able to do the same - I'm just using the free version from https://musescore.com/

Thanks for the introduction to New South Scotland.  Should things progress to the point of an Embassy at the level of the Realm, it may be of interest to have a consulate in our fair province.

Cézembre - TalossaWiki

I noticed the map on your site - should you wish to delve into details of the isle see this map

Definitions of a consulate location to be debated in l'Etats de Cézembre for Zone Autorisée would be made via https://what3words.com/

Not sure if there was further discussion of this, would there be a designated section of beach or the beach in its entirety?

bumping this as I really should do some old fashioned postal mailing of deeds...

I support keeping the Senate with powers that exist today.  Perhaps the notable efforts being made in this activity could be redirected to other issues.

Quote from: Munditenens Tresplet on May 30, 2025, 08:21:50 AMWould this amendment actually end the push to dissolve the Senate and/or force the merger of provinces over their will? It seems like it would, and that would be a strong reason to favor it, given the political push in the other direction. (This isn't to say I'm in support of the amendment at this time, just that I continue to keep an open mind.)

As noted earlier in the thread, for my part I have accepted that the Senate will continue to exist for the foreseeable future; continuing to move its workings in a more democratic direction is something I like to think more people could agree on than outright abolition.

As to forcing provinces to merge, I'll admit to some confusion as to what you refer to. While I've been a strong proponent of reducing the number of provinces, and even trying to coordinate those on a "big-picture" level, I'm not sure if anyone is under the impression one can Organically force provinces to merge without their consent. I don't believe this is possible; the whole thing is down to negotiation and compromise, as with pretty much anything else in politics.

I would still argue that either of my proposed reforms to the Cosa -- including the Mixed-Member Proportional proposal, but the "Biproportional" plan as well -- retain a degree of provincial representation, since I see that some people view that as a sticking point (and I myself am in favor of retaining it to some extent), but do so in a more democratic fashion.

The current Senate is democratic -representing subgroups of citizens where the Cosa represents all citizens in general.  it provides important checks and balances.  Changing the Senate to representing all citizens in general removes this factor of balance.

Üc regarding the Vote of Confidence

I support the continued representation in the Senate of one resident of that province as senator.

At large representation is already handled by the Cosa.  Should there be more or fewer provinces in the future, then there will be more or fewer Senators.

Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on May 29, 2025, 11:08:45 AM@xpb Mr. Burgermeister, I wanted to check with you on a question concerning advised donations to the Kingdom. If I make a donation to the Treasury is it possible to specify it be used by the BHAID? Or is any donation to the Kingdom automatically entered into a general fund?

The bank account is just a pool of funds, but perhaps this could be brought up in the Ziu where after a budget is approved, any individual could donate to expand a budget line item, or if the line item did not exist, to create said line item (should it meet with general approval in terms of title and purpose).
