Progressive Alliance / Foreign Affairs
Last post by xpb - Yesterday at 05:08:28 PM
I am doing research for my new office of Minister of Foreign Affairs.  I am creating a sheet at

where I will update information about connections to other entities, some of which have an active citizenry, and some that come from fiction, but may have aficionados, either of which may have interest in our realm.

Please comment on any to which you have connections.

Although I may no longer be in the position by 2027, I have registered as a delegate for the next North American MicroCon https://us.microcon27.com/ (as has the King prior to me).  That event is being hosted by the Republic of Slowjamistan https://www.slowjamastan.org/ which has high visibility in part due to the Sultan being on 200+ radio stations in 17 countries.  Last year in my role as Burgermeister of Inland Revenue I completed an exchange of a sample of our postage and coinage for a sample of their currency.

Every one of us is at least a dual citizen of a UN recognized member state https://www.un.org/en/about-us/member-states along with the Kingdom, and perhaps other similar entities.  The Progressive Alliance should encourage and support the connection between Talossa and various entities including naming ambassadors, establishing embassies and consulates, and for those with a desire for our culture along with active participation, the extension of citizenship.

We may wish study and perhaps to adopt polices similar to
https://sancratosia.org/national-policy-mre-2023-01-20/
and reflect upon previous actions such as the Treaty With The Free Commonwealth of Penguinea https://wiki.talossa.com/Law:Treaty_With_Penguinea and https://wiki.talossa.com/Law:58RZ20_Embassy_Rhymes_with_Coffee_Act

Another area for possible links to immigration would be to introduce Talossa to fans of fictional nations (e.g Elbonia from the Dilbert universe, or Freedonia from the film Duck Soup by the Marx Brothers)

While it may require quite a bit more work at the level of the realm to officially adopt embassies and ambassadors, Cézembre may have a fast track for the creation of locations for consulates in Zone Autorisée via interpretation and extensions of provisions of the Interprovincial Diplomatic Agreement of Vuode and Cézembre https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=3042.msg25020#msg25020 and provisions of the A13 An Act to secure Homesteads on the Isle of Cézembre

Florencia / Re: Nimlet XXIV

Quote from: Iac Marscheir on December 23, 2025, 08:23:16 PMThe XXIVth Nimlet is open.

Governor Marscheir, now that you've opened the Nimlet and all seats are assigned I rise to propose the following resolution:

QuoteResolution 2026-01

Whereas, five years ago the House of Shepherds created the Order of Florencia to honor the contributions of exceptional Florencians, and

Whereas, in that time two Florencians (Art Verbotten and King Florence) have been inducted, and

Whereas, Duke Ian Lupul and Baron Hooligan are also fitting recipients of the Order of Florencia on account of their years of service to Florencia and the Kingdom.

Therefore, be it resolved by the House of Shepherds of the province of Florencia, that:

Duke Ian Lupul and Baron Hooligan are enrolled into the Order of Florencia with immediate effect.

lol... Back in 2013, I cosponsored a bill with you to do something similar.  Sometimes you just need to be patient and try again.

Quote from: Mximo Malt on Yesterday at 08:00:42 AMHappy New Year and Feast of the Lord's Circumcision, Majestas! 🫡

Quote from: Wikipedia, Holy PrepuceThe abbey of Charroux claimed the Holy Foreskin was presented to the monks by Charlemagne. In the early 12th century, it was taken in procession to Rome where it was presented before Pope Innocent III, who was asked to rule on its authenticity. The Pope declined the opportunity. At some point, however, the relic went missing, and remained lost until 1856 when a workman repairing the abbey claimed to have found a reliquary hidden inside a wall, containing the missing foreskin. This was not the only test of the relic's legitimacy: as anthropologist Eric Silverman writes, "A common test for foreskinned authenticity [in medieval times] was taste. A physician, supervised by a priest, sampled the skin for the flavor of genuine holiness. The taster was called a croque-prépuce, or 'foreskin cruncher.'"

I, too, will wait until the Informal Session to cast my vote.

This is a real "Nixon Goes To China" bill; in the sense that it's something I would have liked to introduce ages ago, but the monarchist side of politics would have screamed bloody murder at me for being a republican vandal. So, kudos.

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on December 31, 2025, 05:33:21 PMHis Majesty also mentioned you'd like a copy of our speech ahead of time?

The Opposition needs to see the Speech from the Throne to prepare a respectful yet forensic Address-In-Reply. The OppLeader says that if you get it to him by Thursday next week that'll be plenty of time.

"Tylko jedno w głowie mam, koksu pięć gram." (I only have one thing in my head, five grammes of cocaine.)
Well, that explains the chirpy part.
