@ Zirecteir del Óifisch Rexhital del Tourismeu dal Insulā da Cézembre

How goes the start of the summer season on our fair isle?  Would there be an opportunity for a recruiting poster at the restaurant there? 

A new micronation is getting a lot of press in the USA so perhaps some counter can be made in Brittany? https://www.slowjamastan.org

I found a recipe for the galette in english, but I've never tried it

This place in town https://holycrepeco.com has some authentic crepe making irons and some gluten free options so I will as about buckwheat which may tie to their savory crepes.

This is in the current zeitgeist and may be a place to establish a Talossan embassy embassyhttps://www.yahoo.com/news/san-diego-man-got-sick-025136921.html

It comes to my attention that the allocation of seats for l'Etats may have been caught up in the Wittocalypse outage.  Backtracking in Election buddy, there were two votes for each there in secret for
1. Dame Litz Cjantscheir, UrN
2. X. Pol Brigaand

I voted in public for Dame Litz in the voting thread, thus giving a 3:2 majority of votes which translated to a 12 seat allocation for Litz and a 8 seat allocation for Briga as per the calculator specified in Article 9 of the CÉZEMBREAN ADMINISTRATION GUIDE or CAG (that document needs update with results and updated census, etc)

I wish to allocate half of my seats in l'Etats to @þerxh Sant-Enogat a.k.a. Zirecteir del Óifisch Rexhital del Tourismeu dal Insulā da Cézembre such that he can directly propose legislation and act upon same, thus changing the allocation of seats to 12 Litz 4 Briga 4 Sant-Enogat.

I vote Për on this appointment.

What say you, @Dame Litz?

Whereas Cézembre - famous for its title of the best province of Talossa - is the furthest province from the GTA, but the closest to the hearts of all Talossans,
 
Whereas all Talossan citizens are encouraged, should they have the means and ability, to visit Cézembre at least once in their lifetime,
 
Whereas the Provincial Government of Cézembre should do all within its remit to make sure this is a memorable and worthwhile visit to our fabulous homeland,
 
Therefore, be it enacted by L'Etats de Cézembre:
 
Section 1) Any trip or visit by any Talossan to Cézembre shall be known as the "Euro Haxh",
 
Section 2) It shall be a duty for all Talossan Citizens lucky enough to live near our beloved island to welcome and guide fellow Talossans who travel on a Euro Haxh.
 
b) Such citizens who live near our fair island, shall also endeavour to educate the unfamiliar on "Galette à l'Andouille et au Camembert" - a Cézembre regional culinary specialty,
 
Section 3) In order to further aid and empower local citizens, and to assist them in the promotion of Euro Haxh,  L'Etats de Cézembre, hereby establishes, "The Royal Tourist Office of the Island of Cézembre", known officially in El Glheþ as "L'Óifisch Rexhital del Tourismeu dal Insulā da Cézembre", and charges it with the mission to promote tourism to Cézembre by advertising the numerous qualities of the island and its coastal surroundings, by whatever means it deems fit, including but not limited to, such matters as historical, geographical, culinary or fiscal.
 
Section 4) The Royal Tourist Office of the Island of Cézembre shall be headed by a Director, known as "El Zirecteir del Óifisch Rexhital del Tourismeu dal Insulā da Cézembre".
 
b) They shall be appointed and dismissed by a resolution passed by a majority of L'Etats de Cézembre.
 
c) The Director shall be responsible for welcoming and offering to guide Talossan visitors onto Cézembre and its surrounds, namely in the cities of Saint-Malo and Dinard, provided this Director is not prevented from doing so by a reasonable excuse.
 
Furthermore:
 
Be it resolved by of L'Etats de Cézembre that it passes the following resolution, as described in Section 4b above that:
 
þerxh Sant-Enogat shall be appointed "Zirecteir del Óifisch Rexhital del Tourismeu dal Insulā da Cézembre" and shall serve as Director until L'Etats de Cézembre resolves otherwise, or he otherwise vacates said office, by resignation/death/loss of citizenship.

I have been experiencing flight delays and have a thin WiFi at the moment I will move this into l'Etats this evening unless Dame Litz would prefer to?  I will write up the Hooligan and Sant-Enogat homesteads and the Tourist office locations (I think I can edit that map on my traveling computer, if not just have the text description)

Quote from: Dame Litz Cjantscheir, UrN on May 17, 2023, 01:30:20 PMLooks good - though when I get a minute, I'd like to give it a more "grammatical" tidy-up and shall post it here before it goes to a vote.

Much appreciated @Dame Litz it would be great have that available for l'Etats by the start of the month of June.  I will sort out the homestead claim and tourism office location and write that up for confirmation as well.  Will be traveling a bit (again) but should have access to Witt.

Quote from: þerxh Sant-Enogat on May 26, 2023, 11:16:24 AMThis rock takes its name initially from its characteristic form of dragon's crest (see photo above) but above all from the Breton legend of the dragon of Élorn.

In the Arthurian legend, the dragon is the specific enemy of the knights and popular or literary traditions have transmitted to us some figures of knights slaying dragons.  In the sixth century, three knights, Jacques de Néventer, Jean-Baptiste Derrien and Barnabé de Riek came to the aid of Élorn, who had been designated by King Bristokus as the next victim of a dragon terrifying the region.  The dragon was so surprised to be challenged by 3 knights that he allowed himself to be apprehended and led by the bridle to the castle of King Bristokus.

To thank them, the king gave each the hand of one of his daughters: Edmée, Valentine and Clémentine.  From the castle, they ordered the dragon to throw itself into the sea. Thus, today, it would be the back of the dragon of Élorn which rests on the seabed off our fair Isle.

I saw similar legends for other dragon-shaped rocks in Brittany, so this one may not be the real remains of a dragon.

Just to be careful, l'Etats may need to declare Rocher du Dragon as protected wilderness such as not to disturb Élorn. 

As le Sénéchal, I hereby declare a temporary executive order prohibiting homesteading on Rocher du Dragon (I don't believe that it is actually part of the homesteading area in Zone Intradite, but just acting in an abundance of caution.)  l'Etats may also need to consider annexation of Rocher du Dragon to establish status for protection and investigate local legends further.

Challenges such as this are significant -- and while this forum may provide a bit of mental health first aid, it is important to consider additional professional therapy to build resilience.  We stand by you on your journey.
