What's the deal with that? Is it still operational?

I don't typically venture into the Florencian boards. However, this thread caught my eye.
I am going to assume you are referring to the Kingdom's Ministry of Defence and not some provincial ministry specific to Florencia. If you are referring to the latter, please accept my apologies as I slink away into the shadows.
However, the Ministry of Defence is indeed still operational with the Right Honourable Brad Holmes at the helm.

Admiral Asmourescu is correct (which is not surprising, since the Navy that he is in charge of is a major group within the Kingdom's MoD). The Ministry of Defence consists of the Royal Navy, the Zouaves of the Royal Bodyguard (our ground forces), and the Office of Pirates er, Private Adventurers.
If there ever was a Florencian-specific ministry of defence, I am not aware of it, but it was surely disbanded because we have nothing to fear from the other six provinces. Well, not much, at least, but it's rather difficult to defend against jealousy.

I was speaking about the Kingdom's MoD. I believe I mentioned elsewhere in this post that I would be posting on the Florencian board almost exclusively.
I was just curious to see if the MoD was still around. When I clicked the link for the Zouaves, it linked me to some kind of language page.

I went to the Kingdom website, clicked on the Ministry of Defence link and then the Zouaves link on that page. That took me to a page with the title 'Guizua Errata', which had nothing to do with the Zouaves.

Oh my.
Uh, what else can I say but...oops! I, uh, I have informed Sir Mick Preston, Captain of the Zouaves, and his "lol" response to my news belies how upset he surely is at me that he and his military mates will need to re-create the Zouaves website.
Crap. And up until whenever this accidental overwrite happened, I had been perfect all my life.
Oh well. First round's on me, Sir Mick.

Any help in recreating the Zouaves page would be greatly appreciated! My page- making skills have seriously lapsed since I retired from the office of SoS ...
