History

If you join the forum and you hold a position, create an office at your earliest convenience. (ie: A judge would have an office in 'Judicial Branch', a manager would have an office in 'Executive Cabinet')

Sorry to interrupt but I remembered that this wonderful site exists: www.freerice.com

I think I'll hold off on joining for the time being.

So we're going to be breaking the news to our CFN guests about RLP tyranny right? They should know we're horrible, horrible people.

Libertatem is oligarchy,

Down with the ruling party!

The deceit is really big,

All the elections are rigged!

RLP has a monopoly!

Down with the autocracy!

Humpheria is in charge,

a criminal mastermind at large!

Party system is unfair!

Power needs to be shared!

Should be done soon, actually.

Following the collection of ballots, I'd like to announce that Miencraft has been elected as Chairman of the Board. Vivat Libertatem!

I'm ceaselessly amazed by the opinion polls. I've processed citizenship requests rapidly, I smoothly ran the chairman election, I actively comment on the RMB, I've maintained the IA pages, and have in every way been helpful and accommodating.

I haven't put legislation forward because

A. I'm still writing it

B. I'm very busy with band, debate, ethics, choir, and AP classes

And C. I don't have the political clout to pass it anyway.

I will not resign, as I have a duty to fill out the remainder of my term, but I will instead continue to faithfully serve Libertatem.

That's the spirit! I'm sure the poor ratings are just because the Internal Affairs office isn't as much of a presence as it has been in the past. I'm sure it'll get better.

Well, this is my first time on the Board after TABLOID...

I guess I'm supposed to say we're going to repeal WAR, and then we vote on it tomorrow?

If one of the Board members would second this that'd be great.

Interesting issue popped up: after a brawl in parliament, I had to decide whether to enforce conduct codes on the legislators. On one hand, I think it's an excellent idea. No one should be arguing like a child when they are a member of the legislative branch. However, given its a violation of freedom of speech, I ignored the call.

I feel really old when I look at my factbook and the record of rulers Miencraft has had.

Ariera III Ductor had a lore-based tenure as Emperor/Aeoror from 1997 to 2012, and was extant from 2011 to 2012.

Kartafla Scriptorium served from 2012 to 2014 as President.

Ralof Luirmes became President last year, and I still need to decide if he's serving another term next year.

An entire three leaders have happened so far, and I use the current year to decide how long they serve. I feel olllllllllld.

Also just so it's clear with everyone when you go to my nation's page, Traeoror is a title that means President (literally Small Emperor), not the dude's name.
