Them Elections, Son!
Have you ever read or heard of that quote about elections from Larry Sabato? In it, he said "Every election is determined by the people who show up." Well, obvious as it may be, he was right. This time around we had an average of 11 voters for each of the four ballots after having two people, Anne and Vac Mikaelson win in uncontested races. Only one of these races, Edwin T.C. Astor vs Eleanor Lancastor-Windsor was even remotely close at 6 to 5 victory. The rest were absolute blow-outs with the winners coming away without so much as breaking a sweat against their opponents. We winners like to believe it is because of our winning personalities, great looks, and our ability to appeal to the hearts of our voters with our signature smiles! That, of course, has yet to be confirmed even though we have tasked most of our scientific community to researching it. We'll keep you posted with their findings as the term continues.
Adios Amigos!
If you find yourself in any attentive region connected to the British Isles then chances are you have noticed the growing tensions between the two governments over what is believed to be tedious leadership after the appointment of renowned criminal Govindia to the ranks of their House of Lords as a Viscount. While this act was quickly explained as a follow up from a warning to current Lords that members who attempted to run in race for the House of Commons would be viewed favorably when the next Lords were announced, the damage was already done. Multiple regions, including the Kingdom of Great Britain, severed ties with the region and condemned the appointment with statements questioning the safety of their members as they visited abroad. Govindia has since resigned from his office after public outcry and the leadership in KGB continues to keep a watchful eye on the political climate in the British Isles in case diplomatic ties can be reforged despite the mistake.
Farewell Old Friend!
Before the previous election, the Kingdom of Great Britain received the sad news that one of their own, Krimson Vulika, would be resigning from his posts in the region. This left a hole in the position of Election Commissioner and in the House of Lords, where Krimson faithfully served before his resignation. William Bettingham was appointed as his replacement and the region remains hopeful that William will fill the hole left behind quite admirably.
New Government Looks to Brush Off the Dust With a New Look
After a brief, three day hiatus after the election that the Prime Minister used to gather his wits before beginning to execute his plan, the Government started off with a bang. Within the day, a clear plan was laid down for each of the different offices with a sense of urgency placed in each secretary's mind. As of now, multiple offices have begun to implement new ideas with a vigor that is hopefully maintained through the long run! To start, the Foreign Office issued a recall to all ambassadors with the hopes of refilling its ranks with more active members at the same time that Lucy began work on plans to increase regional engagement! The hopes are that the cabinet comes out of this term having built a lasting masterpiece. They still aren't sure what kind of masterpiece it will be though as they are currently debating between the Roman Colosseum, the Great Wall of China, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Taj Mahal... Perhaps even a mix of all four. Whatever it is, they intend to make it put all others to shame.
Parliament Undergoes Reconstructive Knee Surgery, Hopes for Full Comeback
Parliament opened this term with high hopes much like the Cabinet. However, after crippling delays in the lives of many of its members, it has found meeting those expectations a bit harder than imagined which left them as crippled as a businessman who forgot to pay up on the loan he got from the mob. No worries though, they are working on picking themselves up and they intend to be better than ever as they try to make the promises of their campaigns come true. While they do that, the rest of the region waits patiently by with glasses of whiskey in case they need to dull the pain of their achy knees.
Culture Skips a Few Decades to Get Past Its Old Style
Without throwing out the type of interactions that brought joy to everyone's hearts, the Culture Industry here in KGB has moved on to greener pastures! Now, it features more RPs, more discussions, more business, an economy that still isn't entirely understood(Kind of like how Americans view the European Union), and a fresh set of job opportunities. The hope is that it continues to build on itself with the influx of both old and new members. Come check it out if you are even remotely interested in a mix of weird, wacky, fun, intelligent, and slightly senile daily activities. END
