Today is a provincial holiday in Fiôvâ, the Day of Talossan and Fiovan Heroes, and also the Day of Penguinea.
22 years ago today, the Uppermost Cort rejected my application for Talossan citizenship, after five months of waiting, under heavy pressure from the King. In response, a number of Talossan citizens renounced and joined me in forming the Free Commonwealth of Penguinea, a democratic micronation. It is not difficult to see that the Penguinean exodus led, eventually, to the National Schism that formed the Talossan Republic, and eventually led to a unified, more-or-less democratic Talossa. So, you're welcome.
So, since the merger with Fiova has been rejected, I just wanted to take this opportunity to remind Fiovan citizens that we shouldn't let our own province wither on the vine. We've got Praisidiéu elections coming up next month, if anyone's interested.
(For those who haven't paid attention, the Praisidéu is the 3-member Standing Committee of the direct-democracy General Assembly.)
