Well in response to Marcus Cornelius Tiberius, I take
no offense to your response if you felt you were being
rude in anyway. I will say that I am fairly new to
Nova Roma and therefore have not had the time to fully
look at any suggestions made for the idea of
purchasing land. However in response to the idea of
establishing a capitol land first I think a nation of
any sorts cannot establish a capitol until it has
aquired lands. If you were to establish a capitol
land first it would not allow all citizens the benefit
of seeing this capitol. Therefore it is wiser to
aquire several small lands initially and then
establish a sole capitol land. However I will
emphasize that this is my opinion and you don't have
to like it or agree with it. But, there is no harm in
criticizing it and expressing your point of view.

Indeed. And if we establish this committee now, and it doesn't have anything
to do for ten years, you think this a good thing? Cut those people who join
during the next decade out of the decision-making process, and potentially
include people who are no longer actively participating in Nova Roma? Heck,
for that matter, by your logic why don't we set up a committee for our space
program? Or our nuclear power program? Generals! We need generals to fill
the slots once we have need for a real military! Sorry; I stick with my
original assessment. Hold off forming a committee until there's something
for it to do.

I Thought we already had a Land committee. I think
it's called the Senate. They are the ONLY body
authorized to spend the money to buy the land, and
they are the ones who will have to fund any costs
(Taxes, insurance, etc) that are associated with
owning land.

I already have the space program covered, as with all advanced technology a
benevolent imperial approach is better than a committee. :-)
(I might not be joking or talking about the sci-fi book I am writing, but
then again, maybe I am)
Seriously though, committee's with nothing to do for a long time period do
*tend* to devolve rapidly into a destructive spiral of bickering and
fighting.

[novaroma] Latin Question |

Charlie Collins <cotta@--------> |

Fri, 28 Sep 2001 23:01:13 -0700 |

Salve,
Could one of the Latin brains out here tell me the Latin for "guard"
(like in Security Guard) is. I am planning on setting up my last e-mail
addy with SWBell(I get 1 Primary and 2 others free) and I want to use
"guard". I did find Custos, Custodis, and Excubiae. I found others but
they are to long to use(max of 8 letters in addy). Any ideas?
Vale,

You do have a valid point in saying that forming this
committee now and if no action is taken for say a
decade as you mentioned then it certainly would cut
individuals out of the process. However, though I am
not disagreeing with you, I am giving my own personal
input as to what I think. Say this committee was
formed now. It would already be in place and ready to
go if the funds became available soon. Now using the
more realistic idea of the funds not becoming
available for quite some time, with the committee
already being place, legislation of sorts could be
laid out requiring that periodically this committee be
updated (I don't know how to term it exactly) and then
action could be taken concerning the real estate.

Oay the Senate maybe the "ONLY body authorized to
spend the moneyto buy the land" but could a
sub-committee (dealing specifically with the land
fund) not be setup for the handling of that money with
the usage of that money receiving authorization from
the Senate and only the Senate.

The Latin for guard would be "custos", I think. Custodis seems like a
genetive to me (meaning "the guard's") and excubiae looks like a plural, so,
from the limited Latin I know, "custos" would be the best option.

"Custos" is more like a single "guardian" a member of a "guard". Usually
I translate a term like guard with "custodia" as it is used for such
military units in Tacitus. Custodia literally means security guard.
And fortunately, it's got exactly 8 letters :o)

Salvete,
I agree with this. If nothing else, such a committee could act as a fact-finding body right now, checking out legalities of owning land in various places, etc.

Same feeling from me. I haven't finished studying yet, but what I know from
