I don't think I would be the appropriate contact for the Royal College of Arms any longer (plus it lists me as I once was known before I ascended the throne).

This thread continues the efforts of @Ian Plätschisch @Breneir Tzaracomprada, and @þerxh Sant-Enogat.  If you want something added or removed, just post a reply.  The last list was 2/3 inactive, so I started over mostly.


The easiest way to get involved is probably to join the Zouaves of the Royal Bodyguard, which will recognize your achievements and encourage you in your activity.

Quote from: Barclamïu da Miéletz on Yesterday at 12:55:44 PMI'm fluent in Polish which is my native, German which is my second and English which is my third.

Polish and German interest me a lot. I know some basic German, but I don't know anything about Polish, although I find it beautiful when written.

I'm fluent in Polish which is my native, German which is my second and English which is my third.

Quote from: Marcel Eðo Pairescu Tafial, UrGP on Yesterday at 09:18:14 AMI'm only fluent in German and English. I can read and write Talossan well, but I can't speak it conversationally yet.

Aside from that, I mostly dabble with constructed or ancient languages like Interlingua, Ithkuil, Sumerian, or what have you.

ithkuil? it's really hard, but interesting

I am enjoying learning about New Ikthuil. The intent behind it is laudable.
And Esperanto, so far, is the only language other than English that I've been able to use in thought.

Quote from: Tric'hard Lenxheir on Yesterday at 10:41:29 AMNone fluently but I can get by with English.

You're being too modest. If I, as someone who only started learning English at age 8 and has never set foot in an English-speaking country in his life, count as fluent, then you definitely do as well.

Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on January 25, 2026, 04:56:34 PMI'd be interested in Westarctica, Ladonia, and would suggest we add the Dominion of Vancouver Island which is active and nearby (for Talossans in Canada's British Columbia).

Also Asgardia seems to be another self-serious outfit.

I suppose the sequence of events here would be to first act as a liaison to gather information, and to determine if there would be mutual interest in establishing formal relations.

I wanted to confirm then, under this process, I would act as an investigator for:

Asgardia
Dominion of Vancouver Island
Westarctica
Ladonia

Okay, I think this has a good nautical theme and looks good.  All of the colors are on their own level, so it will only require one color change and won't waste much filament, and I can print them in bulk, twenty or thirty at a time (I haven't worked it out exactly).  I can fairly easily print out two or three hundred and take care of our needs for the foreseeable future.



I have designed a press-fit channel underneath that should print well to hold a 2mm nylon cord.  The current design is here: https://www.tinkercad.com/things/lFna6xfoiuf-pretz-patriotic-del-seneschal



The cord can be easily cut and then melted on an iron to seal the end neatly, and it should hold any kind of bead we care to get for this purpose.  I already ordered it.

I'll print out a prototype soon.  It's too cold for my printer to work properly where I am right now, but once the temperature goes back over 20 or 30, it should work okay.

All of this is going to total up like $20 worth of materials, so I'm just going to make it my donation.

2.6.7.1 Any Talossan citizen living in another country can petition the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to establish an embassy in the country of their residence.
such as
Bråneu Excelsio Monterrey, Nuevo León. Mexico
[...]

Sadly, that Embassy closed in 2024. CC: @Bråneu Excelsio, UrN.
