Greetings, fellow Mussolinians! *Insert cricket chirping here*
Alright, so... I've noticed that of all the provinces in this nation, Mussolini is the most.... dead! I mean, does anything go on in here? Honestly, when was the last time we had a Maestro election, and for that matter, do we even HAVE an active Maestro??? Mussolini seems to be a genuinely dead province, and I think it's right about time we fixed it up a bit! Thus, I've come up with a few suggestions to be discussed...
1. Change Mussolini's name, and actually like, do it this time.
Unlike Mustafa Kemal Ataturk (who's "evil quotient" can be debated), no one is going to debate the fact that Benito Mussolini was a ruthless authoritarian dictator and essentially the father of contemporary European Fascism. Although I like the Italian undertones the Mussolini province is supposed to have (if it were ya know, active), but the name is undoubtedly unappealing to prospective and current citizens of this great nation. Many names (Lombardi, Trajan, Romulus, etc.) have been suggested and all would make excellent substitutes to the name, however, we never seem to get around to doing it. If we can actually agree on something, heck, I'll write the proposal to be sent to the Legislature if I have to, I just wanna see something done.
2. Maybe find our Maestro/ Cunstavál and see if she still plans to like... do stuff?
If the forum records are accurate, Maestro/ Cunstavál De Winter has been inactive since 7 March 2007. That's a long time, and part of the reason I believe Mussolini has become so inactive. A province without a leader can hardly run itself, can it? Perhaps we should find a way to contact her and see if something's up, and if she plans on returning. If not, perhaps a shift in power is in order in this near-dead province.
3. Get around to holding a Corporative Chamber election, or at least get the darn thing up and running again?
I don't believe I've ever seen the Corporative Chamber like... do anything. Maybe it should?
4. Change the flag?
Let's face it, our flag is kinda... dull really. I've seen several suggestions to remake it, but just like everything else in here, nothing ever gets done. Anyone wanna take this into consideration with me?
5.Make a provincial website?
Heck, I'll do this. A provincial website is something that would make any province more interesting, and interesting-ness is something this province needs right now.
6.Other trivalities?
Provincial animals, nicknames, mottos, plants, foods, songs, etc. Other provinces have 'em. We don't. Anyone besides me interested in making this place kinda cool?
Anyway, I hope I'm not crazy in thinking that something can be done to improve this province and make it a place of it's own. Anyone got any suggestions, comments, etc. to my radical and insane proposals?

. Although I like that character too. I was referring to Giuseppe Garibaldi. He is a character commonly thought to be the father of the modern Republic of Italy.
