Welcome to Talossa Phillip. I'm pleased you have decided to immigrate. I see from your essay that you are a retired school teacher. I'm a school teacher myself. I also think it is awesome you might be of use or service in our Armed Forces.

I'm always curious how people find out about us. I hope you find Talossa a place you wish to stay!

Hi, my name is Phillip Ryman, residing in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. My home city is Harrisonburg, home to James Madison University and Eastern Mennonite University. I enjoy collecting paper currency from all over the world, especially the new King Charles 111 coins. I read a great deal, I would enjoy hearing from other citizens.
Thanks,
Phillip Ryman

Hi Phillip. What is the most interesting book you've ever read? I personally enjoy historical biographies and Science Fiction. My favorite book is not specifically a biography, but it has biographical information in it. It is called "Pillars of the Earth" by Ken Follet. It is now part of a larger series but the original is still my favorite. I've also written two SciFi books and I am about halfway through the 3rd, though it has been on hold for some time as life got in the way.

I'm not terribly familiar with your region of Virginia, though I am generally familiar with the state. I have family in Tennessee and my family lived for a few years in Maryland, near the Chesapeake Bay.

Welcome Phillip! Unlike His Majesty, I'm rather familiar with your part of Virginia -- I grew up in the Charlottesville area and quite a few of my friends from back in the day went to JMU after graduation.

I don't have much of a currency collection -- apart from some older cash from the Canadian Journey series, the only one I think I have are these 500 and 1000 mark gold notes from Finland:


I do, however, have a bit of a license plate collection starting:

When I will have the resources I'll send out a Talossan plate to you.

Still interested in being a Talossan, Phillip?

I am very sorry to do this, but under the provisions of El Lexhatx E.4, as no petition for a grant of citizenship has laid before the Secretary of State within the first sixty days of this prospective's examination period, the immigration process for the prospective citizen is terminated.
