Is there a method by which subdirectories may be established under ...>>Cézembre>>...? 

The purpose would be to organize types of discussion, such as l'Etats for official business posted for consideration, RAK as equivalent to The Hopper of the Ziu, CLO for the consideration of homestead requests by the Cézembre Land Office, CBS: Cézembre Bureau of Standards for measurement criteria, UCZ for the University of Cézembre etc.

This will also be helpful for conduct of the upcoming election within Cézembre

In case it was not clarified in previous discussion, Cézembre will conduct all elections pertaining to any offices related to Cézembre at the local level.

We have made requests for subdirectory boards on Wittenberg but are unclear if that can or will be accomplished prior to the election timeframe .

@Amada Merþedes

As moderator are you able to construct a RAK subforum of Cézembre?

Quote from: GV on April 15, 2021, 07:37:04 PMWhy can't we have a sovereign who actually wants to be active in their own country?

A certain kind of person only loves their country when it's doing what they want it to do and stroking their ego in precisely the correct way.

Indeed.

Based upon the expressions of the Crown in https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=780.msg6141#msg6141, I respectfully withdraw this proposal from the RAK

There is a new imagery viewer that will take you directly to Cézembre

The Cézembre Land Office will be adding features to this service from time to time with placement of granted homesteads, public works, and other points of interest.

I do indeed intend to retain my position as Lord Warden.

Outside of this noble nation I personally am, in body, rather unwell - which explains much of my absence. But be assured that my wish - my strong wish - is to be an active citizen and functionary within Talossa. And it is only my body, not my mind, that is affected by illness.

I am still here, and I shall be more visible.

Excellent that you wish to continue as Lord Warden.

I am sorry to hear that you have health issues, and sincerely hope that your situation stabilizes or improves.

Should there be no other candidate by May 14, under our CAG you would be renewed by election non-election to the position of Lord Warden.  If there is another candidate then there shall be a ballot.

There has been previous discussion https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=740.0 regarding the upcoming election of the Lord Warden.

The previous election https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=354.0 after my temporary appointment (for 1 Clark) was thought to seat you for the forseeable future, yet the Chancery insists that election needs to be conducted yet again after your seating for a single Cosa session.  It would be much more reasonable for the period of service to be adjusted based upon that previous election.

The question which has been posed in various ways is

@Ián Tamorán

Do you wish to remain Lord Warden, the representative of Cézembre to the Senäts of Talossa (which at the current time is a Kingdom)?

I believe the timetable for your declaration of such would need to take place by 14 May as per https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=738.0 to be in sync.

You appear to have been too busy to respond to discussion asked for in https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=737.0 nor any other post in this Cézembre forum since January 18, 2021, nor any other post in any forum since February 16, 2021

Be that as it may, you do need to respond at least within a month from today.

Since it has been determined that by statutes in the Cézembrean Adminstration Guide (CAG) A9 Lord Warden Election Act: "If there is one sole candidate for the position of Lord Warden at the start of the election, no election will be held and the sole candidate will be considered elected to the position."
And as Sénéchal, and not standing for this election (as I had previously when there was an election for Lord Warden), I would thus conduct the non-election (since Lord Warden cannot be appointed as per the Chancery regardless of intention of Cézembre and thus need to be elected in a non-election) should no other person decide to declare within that same timeframe until 14 May.

Should you choose to ignore declaration of intent somewhere in the Cézembre forum by 14 May, and should no other person declare intent to seek the position of Lord Warden somewhere in the Cézembre forum, then that position would be left vacant.

As Sénéchal, I cannot conduct an election for that same position, should it be due in the current election cycle, but I will stand for that position, should an election be required.  There may be others interested in standing for that position.  The question remains as to whether someone will accept appointment as the Conducting Officer as part of the CAG A8: The Sénéchal Elections Act to hold either a non-election election (for one standing candidate), or an actual election (for more than one standing candidate).

Thank you for the honor.  Please retain the silver cup in the archives of the Kingdom.

Lotsa words being bandied around here to avoid saying that yes, XPB wants to split Cézembre from Talossa, for a King who's not even interested in Talossa any more (so why would he be interested in schismastic Cezembre, lol). Also interesting that XPB keeps talking about a "hereditary monarchy", which was abolished last year and I don't remember him getting upset. If John's interest in Talossa is zero, Patrick's is negative.

Anyway, looks pretty plain that the majority of opinion in CZ supports compromise over schism, so that's good.

A majority of Cézembre opinon may indeed wish to support the evolution of the Kingdom of Talossa to be the Republic of Talossa, with all the trappings of that type of system.  My interest is in Cézembre remaining a Kingdom, which may be a minority opinion.  It is not a split to remain as such, on the contrary it is the split the Republic is making.

I don't believe the Taiwan analogy is the the best example of that. Mainland china does not recognise it as a country and refuses dealings often with bodies when they also do dealings with Taiwan. I would defiantly not support any system like that at all.

At minimum it definitely is not a situation to strive for!

The people of Taiwan pursue a system of their beliefs and would be unlikely to prevail in changing the hearts and minds of China.  If there are eventually enough people in Taiwan that agree with the form of Chinese government then that may change.

A revolution, albeit incremental, is occurring in Talossa as it changes from a Kingdom to a Republic -- regardless of what window dressing is put on elected positions.  The question is whether Cezembre wishes to remain a Kingdom.

As Conservative, I will always try to keep to the status quo, where I can. Secession is a big step and not one to be taken lightly.
We know where this road leads, history will repeat itself and the trauma will be passed to the next generation of citizens. We must end this cycle.

One reason I offered the Taiwan analogy - in some places there can be one country - two systems.  Some think of Bavaria in this manner as well - im Bayern geht es alles anders.

Some believe that a 7-year president is the equivalent of a King.  I beg to differ.

"Slim" is the guy who takes out Leroy (Le Roi) Brown in the song.
I am poor at French, I translated that as "thin"

ergo - Many in Talossa want a Slim President for 7 year terms, rather than a robust hereditary King
