Taps the sign.

Still seems a bit hard to read

I think I know what "Humphrey House" is: a place where many Talossan events happened over the years before 1991.

It's like... 3 acres, I think? It's a very tiny amount of land.

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on Yesterday at 09:54:03 AMThere's an onramp that it seems to be following, which is weird. I think that legally I am more correct, since the tracts were the basis for the law but not the actual law.

Current law (from 48RZ30) defines the eastern border of LIM Canton as "N Lincoln Memorial Boulevard". It does not go into detail one way or another about the offramp.

Therefore it does not override the previous law, 42RZ37, which defines the border as the 2010 US census tract border, which, by your own definition "appears to follow the offramp".

Therefore, it's the offramp.

But can we have maps made up of both alternatives so we can see how much territory we're actually taking about? I have no desire to create Talossa's equivalent of Liberland.

Quote from: King Robert I, 1994Talossans are having fun as Talossans by doing things which are reasonably similar to what other ("real") countries do, whether for reasons of tourist nostalgia, out of a lust for power, in pursuit of parody, or--yes--as nationbuilding.

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on Yesterday at 11:37:11 AMI'm okay with it the way it is, I think.  If we do transfer that territory, then we can handle that then.

Is it really a territory transfer if that's what the border was meant to be all this time? If anything we're just properly specifying it.

EDIT: 43RZ27 explicitly states that Las Inaltans Maxhestici consists of "Port Maxhestic west of North Lincoln Memorial Drive (the portions of US Census Tract 1874 within Talossan territory)", and the eastern border of US Census Tract 1874, as I've previously shown, follows N Lincoln Memorial Dr, then the onramp onto I-794, and then I-794 proper until it reaches the southern border. It would be silly to ignore this explicit reference just because current statute is underspecified, and there is no good argument to prefer my previous guess at the border over this specific reference either. Reinforcing the border as originally defined is not a territory transfer in my opinion.

On the water tower, M-M law states: B.2. Maritiimi-Maxhestic rightfully claims the Historic Water Tower, but also recognizes Vuode's claim to the water contained within the Tower.

But I know Vuode has not recognized that, and national law trumps on this one, so realistically I think the thing to do is split the tower and then add a note to the places list (which will also be funny).

Wittenberg / Re: A question to Talossa:
Last post by Breneir Tzaracomprada - Yesterday at 11:38:22 AM
I don't know if Talossa has one specific goal. Much like meaning in life it is determined by the dreams and needs of each citizen. My goal in Talossa is to contribute to something greater than I as an individual. And thus to leave a legacy of improvement that speaks of my story when I no longer can. In.the past this has meant politics with the BHAID and Senses of the Ziu on important matters. More recently it has meant persevering against state-sanctioned harassment so that it does not happen to others.

Even the bitter parts of life through appreciation of all experience can have sweetness. I therefore think Talossa can be another way that we explore our humanity whether through the light or the darkness.

Updated like ten million times as I fix all the little bits and bobs of naming and borders.
