Salve, Omnes,
As Nova Roma's first year draws to a close, the Senate has been working to
finish up pending legislation. The following votes have been taken to appoint
new and confirm existing Provincial Praetors for the coming year...
1. Gaius Aelius Ericius is confirmed as Praetor Californiae for 1999, by
unanimous Senate vote.
2. Marcus Cassius Iulianus is confirmed as Proconsul Novae Britanniae (New
England) for 1999, by unanimous Senate vote.
3. Antonius Gryllus Graecus is confirmed as Praetor Lusitaniae for 1999, by
unanimous Senate vote.
4. M H I Cogitatus Thuleus is confirmed as Praetor Thuli for 1999, by
unanimous Senate vote.
5. Minervina Iucundia Flavia is confirmed as Praetor SE US for 1999, by
unanimous Senate vote.
6.Gaius Trinphius Cicero is confirmed as the new Praetor Orienti Canadum
(Eastern Canada), for 1999, by unanimous Senate vote.
7. Quintia Claudia Lucentia Aprica is confirmed as "acting" Propraetor of
Britiannia by unanimous Senate vote. She has most generously been willing to
fill this post until a new Praetor volunteers, or until her circumstances
change and she is able to fill the post on a permanent basis.
8. Primus Fabius Cunctator is confirmed as the new Praetor Italia by unanimous
Senate vote.
Hopefully all Citizens will join us in welcoming both our new Provincial
Praetors, and our returning Provincial Propraetors! Their willingness to work
on behalf of Nova Roma is much appreciated by all. Their guidance in the
Provinces will be invaluable to success in the coming year and we look forward
to working with them!

Provincial Praetors Needed! |

Salvete, Omnes!
Now that the Senate has voted on the Provincia in which there are active
Propraetors and Citizens willing to undertake new Praetorships, we still have
several Praetorships which have gone completely inactive or yet need to be
filled for the first time.
Applications are being accepted for the following Praetorships in the
following Provinciae:
1.Brazil
2.Great Lakes US
3.Mexico
4. Northwest US
5.Southwest US
6.Western Canada
7. Upper Mid West US
If you are a Citizen living in one of these Provinces, and are interested in
filling the role of Praetor for the year 1999, please contact the Senate
through the Cursus Honorum page of the Nova Roma website.
Of all the positions in Nova Roma, I personally believe that the Praetorships
have the most potential for activity and excitement. They involve "building"
Nova Roma at the local level... so there are opportunities for local events,
etc. Some other aspects of the position include:
1. Being willing to distribute Nova Roma information/flyers at shops, etc. in
your Province.
2. Being willing to act as the Contact Person in your Province, both by Email
and by surface mail. Prospective Citizens are often interested in local level
involvement, and are looking to speak to others in their Province before
becoming involved with Nova Roma.
3. The ability to form local Sodalicium (special interest clubs) once there
are enough local Citizens in your area to do so... also the ability to
organize and host local get-togethers and events. Eventually there is the
possibility of Roman "Renaissance Faires" (such as Roman Days in Maryland, US)
springing up in various territories, and the Praetor of each province would be
involved in such events should they be organized.
4. To act on behalf of the Nova Roman government in your Province. While all
Provincial decisions and actions ARE subject to Senate/Consular approval,
there is a great deal of leeway for personal initiative and action. There is
both responsibility in this, and also the potential to build an active
personal presence within the political scene of Nova Roma.
5. The ability to choose Legates to assist you in running your Provincia. As
all the Provincia within Nova Roma encompass large geographic areas, Praetors
have the ability to choose their own "local government" with Senate/Consular
approval. Again there will be much leeway given here... the vast majority if
not all Praetor decisions in appointing Legates will certainly be ratified.
6. Later on, once Nova Roma has grown, the Praetors and Propraetors of each
Provincia may be also asked to oversee actual Nova Roma owned sites, or
oversee local projects sponsored by Nova Roma itself. Admittedly this is
something for the relatively far future, but even with Nova Roma still in it's
first year we've seen talk of Citizens getting together to build historical
equipment and sites. Anything is possible!
In any case, the biggest skills we're looking for are a desire to be active,
and the ability to spend time with Citizens on the local level. All
applications and questions about Praetorships will be welcome, and we look
forward to hearing from those wishing to take on a more active role within our
Micronation!
Valete,
Marcus Cassius Julianus

Salvete, Omnes,
As part of the legislation for the ending of 1998, the Senate of Nova Roma has
undertaken two votes to expand and strengthen the Senate for the coming year.
These will be the last two Senate membership votes of this year. Certainly our
incoming Consuls will nominate additional Senatorial candidates in 1999 as
well!
The first vote has been on the reinstatement of the Co-Founder of Nova Roma,
Flavius Vedius Germanicus, to the Senate.
By majority decision, the Senate has voted to officially reinstate Flavius
Vedius Germanicus as a full Senator of Nova Roma, with all responsibilities
that such position entails.
Welcome back Flavius Vedius Germanicus, Senator of Nova Roma!
Germanicus has contributed much to Nova Roma both during and after the
founding. His skill and experience will be invaluable in the coming year for
the growth and progress of our Micronation. Hopefully all Citizens will join
in congratulating him on his return to the Senate which he helped to
establish!

Salvete, Omnes,
The second and final Senatorial appointment vote for 1998 concerned the
elevation of Flavia Claudia Juliana, our Vestal and editor of "The Eagle" as a
Senator of Nova Roma.
By majority decision, the Senate has voted to officially reinstate Flavia
Claudia Juliana as a full Senator of Nova Roma, with all responsibilities that
such position entails.
Flavia Claudia has been actively involved with the building and promotion of
our Micronation since gaining Citizenship. She holds the first Religio Romana
appointment to be given by our Pontificial College, and has done a tremendous
job as editor of "The Eagle" over the past several months. She was also a
popular candidate for the Consulate in the recent elections. She is also
personally highly skilled in the running of non-profit organizations, and will
be a great help toward building Nova Roma even further in the coming years.
Welcome Flavia Clauda Juliana, new Senator of Nova Roma!
Hopefully all Citizens will join in congratulating Flavia Claudia on her new
position.
She will surely be a skilled and active Senator, who will work on behalf of
all Nova Romans!

Thanks to the Senate and Consuls for graciously appointing me to the

coming year.
And thank you to all for your warm congratulations. I honestly
appreciate your support.
This would have been longer (you know how I am!), but I'm just exhausted
from lack of sleep at the moment, combined with the novelty of actually
having a social life for the past few days. But I wanted to express my

A joyous Saturnalia to everyone, and may Vesta bless you all with a warm
