"Jack Warner Olivers V. Electoral Commission of the Federation of Olivio" Federated Court Ruling

Supreme Courthouse, City of Hennepin

11:13 AM, Saturday, 29th of October, 2023

After Olivers refused to accept election results and relinquish his Presidency to Olyv, she went to the Electoral Commission to call for his forceful removal from office. Olivers argued that as the constitution does not state when elections are to happen nor the voting system they shall be elected from and that the Electoral Commission was a product of the now repealed constitution and congress has yet pass an elections bill, therefor not a single part of the elections was legal nor sanctioned.

Olyv argued that the previous constitution called for elections for President to take place thirty days after the previous elected has stepped down, ouster or removed, and the Olivers did not hold elections after the period, and during this time the previous constitution was still in effect. Additionally, she argued that since Olivers himself originally promised and called for the election, it was his duty to carry it out and allow it to transpire. She was elected by a majority, therefor she should be President regardless of whether the constitution itself had sanctioning the voting system it had used.

The dispute was taken to the Federated Court, and, after months of back and forth, the court ruled in 3-2 decision out of 5/11 turnout of Justices, that Olivers would remain President. Olyv called this decision blatant corruption as 3 of the judges have suddenly gone missing and the ruling was purposefully made before the other 3 arrived to the Supreme Courthouse.

Railroads Completed :3

The Uadi government has announced that the Nyang-Uadi railroad line has officially completed construction. Thereby opening up more travel and economic opportunities between the 2 nations. Progress continues on the Uadi-Yuki line as well. The next stage of the infrastructure plan has started being implmented too with a focus on upgrading Uadi water lines around the country to ensure all Uadi have access to clean and fresh water

Condemnations

The Uadi government now being ruled by a new Democratic Imperialist Party following the elections slams the Olivian Court decision from earlier, stating that Olivers must be removed at once if the rule of democracy is to prevail in Olivio. As such Uaddidasi is officially closing our Olviian embassy and refusing to go further with any sort of trade negotiations.

Royalish Frogs

Her Majesty Frogs were formerly the national animal of the Olivio during it's period as a kingdom, the former royal family of Olivio had a strong fixation on the species and ordered for them to all be captured and brought to a habitat in the Hennepin Palace. It is believed that nearly 92% of the entire Her Majesty population was removed from their natural habitat and placed into the care of the royal family. The species were not properly cared for and quickly died out until around 12,000 remained in the enclosure. During the revolution against the king, the palace was burned down alongside the frogs within it. Her Majesties have still been yet to recover from this, and illegal poaching of them remains a problem in Olivio. New government initiatives have been put in place to create a breeding program, like with the Great Olivian Frogs during the former crisis, which has begun showing positive results already, with the species being officially reclassified from critically endangered to very endangered.

Affiliation with piracy, death, yin, ...black gold, et cetera. Implies inability to cheaply procure other colors, stuff like that.

I would tone down the colors — see Albanian red versus Mexican red. Albania's flag works with that too red red because it is fully contrasted. Your three colors don't include a neutral white to contrast like Mexico.

What are the dimensions, and why is the circle centered on neither axis?

Dragons if we're going fantasy :D

My brother liked to keep exotic pets, he had tarantulas, scorpions, iguanas, bearded dragons, a hedgehog, a cute cute cute colony of hamsters, a lot of snakes, a tortoise, and my personal favorite - his pet baby alligator! I've told this story before in Discord, but I still can't get over the fact little me saw a baby alligator and was like "Yeah, that's normal right there.", so all in all, my favorite type of IRL reptile are alligators! Beautiful creatures!

I dont want to copy the default flag of the yellow circle with red and black. Having it on the center in between the colors will make it look like as if i am inspired by that flag. So I moved the circle to one side. I dont think we need to talk about the flag anymore
