Even though I am but a mere citizen ;-) I want to congratulate and encourage all newly elected magistrated and wish 'em good luck and prosperity for Nova Roma during the next year (or two years for Diocletianus). As rogator the outcome wasn't really surprising, but the congrats are nevertheless sincere!
P.S. I will do my best when tallying the votes for the praetores and the quaestores who aren't yet all known.

Franciscus Apulus Caesar Marco Octavio Germanico S.P.D.
I present you, amice and honorable Consul, my congratulations for your
elections as Consul and Curator Sermonem.
You won me with many tribus on more and I knew the results of my election.
You have the right skills to manage the official website and I'm sure you'll
make a very good work in the next year.
I hope to work with you like Scriba or assistant to help you in the design
and graphics.
I'm happy for my election as Quaestor and for the election of my friend
Gaius Quirinus Italicus: this is an important step for the Provincia Italia.
So, I give my congratulations to everybody too, and specially for my friends
Caeso Fabius Quintilianus, Gnaeus Salix Astur and Amulius Claudius Petrus.
Valete, gratiam et bonam fortunam

Now that the elections are over (well, almost), I offer my
congratulations to all our new magistrati, plebeian and otherwise. The
collection of talent we've elected bodes very well for the coming year.
Now all we need are some praetores and our remaining quaestores. So,
don't relax quite yet. Instead, be sure to vote in the runoff election
coming up very soon. (Oh, and vote Labienus for praetor.)

I am an active pater who is quite active within his gens. Indeed, I interact

Salvete Draco Et Omnes,
I find it most intresting that Draco posted this defense of Bradius V.
Maurus Nee Formosanus.
I do recall a post from Bradius V. Maurus earlier this year voicing
his displeasure that the winning canidate for Tribune of the Plebs
failed to disclose that he was a Client of another Citizen, and Now we
find that Draco has also failed to disclose his role in founding an
alternative Roman group, something that could have had an effect on
people's desire to vote for him in the recent election.
I Also find it intresting that Bradius V. Maurus Nee Formosanus is
listed as a member since May the first, and I wonder if he made his
membershp in this alternative organization known to the Senatus of
Nova Roma when he was attempting to become a Propraetor.
Bradius V. Maurus Nee Formosanus seems to have spent a considerable
ammount of time on this alternative group rather than attending to the
duties of the office that he was elected to fill, and now it seems
that we have the SAME office filled by his former filis who is also a
member of this group. I certainly hope that we won't see a repeat of
this years performance.

DRUSUS: I Was using Irony in my Back Alley post, but that clause is
VERY dangerous because of it's total lack of precession in it's
phrases. The Communist Party has a large following in Italy. To an
American they are extreme left wing, while I have seen many Europeans
claim that the US Republican party is Far Right. Those terms depend
too much on WHO is making the definition and this clause is a danger
to disadents in any organization.

Frankly this post was intended for the Back Alley, Though I have NO
problems with it appearing on the Main List, other than the fact that
my choice of words would have been different for this more formal
forum, but the central ideas would have been the same.
That is the same theme that I posted earlier this year when I
announced my views that Bradius V. Maurus Nee Formosanus was a totaly
untrustworthy person and not fit to hold the postion of Propraetor.
I mentioned the duplicity that he had shown up to that time as reasons
that he was unfit for an office of public trust, since that time he
has added his role in SVR, which he did NOT make plain to the citizens
of Nova Roma, and which I have to reason to think he made plain to the
Senate of Nova Roma when he was attempting to become a Propraetor.
Bradius V. Maurus Nee Formosanus has proven that he is unfit to hold
an office of public trust by his double dealing, and SVR will rue the
day they entrusted this man.
I will also bluntly state that I am disapointed that Draco failed to
make Nova Roma aware of his actions, and that running for an office in
Nova Roma while organizing an alternitive organization and hiding
these actions behind the closed European List and the Closed SVR list
do NOT do much to inspire trust in him.
I have also noticed that SVR's rolls contain a citizen from Brazil
named Limitanus, which I doubt is mere chance, so it seems we may have
yet another canidate who has been less than honest with the voters of
Nova Roma, though in this case one who was NOT elected so we don't
have the problem of another Magistrate who is trying to serve two
masters while being less than honest with one of them.
If there are any more Canidates in the undecided races or newly
elected Magistrates, or Propraetors who are involved with SVR, I call
on them to at least have the decency to make a belated statement
detailing their dealings with SVR.

I would like to thank all of you for considering me worthy of this great
honor, I was rather convinced that I would not be among those elected in
the first rounds. Your faith in me warms my heart.
Also, I want to congratulate all other elected for service to our res

Octavius Germanicus and the future curule aedile Caeso Fabius
Quintilianus. I know all of you will do well, and I am honored to be a

I write this to inform you of a grave danger. Using subliminal messages,
Quintus Fabius Maximus has conditioned Marcus Antonius Zeno into voting

Incidentially, I believe I should vote for Q Fabius Maximus for

Salvete Omnes:
Outside being made aware of its existance, and the fact that M.
Apollonius Formosanus is a member, and some others that I am since
aware of in conversation, I am not affilitated with the Societas Via
Romanus.
Do I hold them any ill-will? No. But I feel within my heart that my
place is here in Nova Roma. As long as I am here, I shall remain
committed to her. That is my decision.
If any particular group were actively trying to cause unfounded harm
to Nova Roma, to wit, her public dignatus and her right to exist, I
would be forced to draw the line and say, "OK, I'm mad", but merely
existing, even if it's because of a disagreement with NR, is not a
problem, as I see it. You play in *your* backyard, and we'll play in
*ours* ok, and things will be better that way. Perhaps things will be
different after a brief time out, perhaps not. But it's better than a
major "Hatfields vs. McCoy's" Environment, which benefits nobody.
No single person or one group can claim a patent on the celebration of
Romanitas or the worship/honour of the deities of Rome, any more than
one particular Christian denomination has a patent on the way of the
Galilean, to offer comparison. Nor does one Wiccan coven *own* wicca.
My only concern with co-affiliation with two groups, is whether or not
the effort will be devoted to NR, with equal measure as the devotion
to another group, as L. Sicinius alluded to. (I am speaking
theoretically, Draco, with no prejudice against you, please
understand).
Another consideration is the potential existance of conflict of
interest, be it political, social, idealogical and the like.
I for one, as an example, was morally forced to unsubscribe from a
group,in which the
moderator/head hauncho was complaining about NR and its Paganism.
This individual was also at the time a citizen of NR. That did not
sit well with me, and I told him so on his list, and unsubbed
afterward. I felt to be a part of his group was incongruent with my
oath as Propraetrix, and would present personal discord, as I do not
subscribe to the "I'm right and you're wrong" path of spirituality.
************************
To further disclose, I am nobody's client. Save the nice man who
foils, cuts and colours my hair every 2 months or so!
I have many friends in NR, from around the globe those I consider
mentors or role models, who have taught me much. For this I am very
grateful.
**********************
I am committed to a united res publica, and I am willing to do all I
can to unite us as a whole. Naturally, conflicts will occur, and
people will leave. We cannot please everyone all the time, but we can
strive to make Nova Roma as appealing as possible, with her virtues,
sodalitates, amicitia, concommitantly rendering reverence, where we
possibly and practically can, to the way of the Ancients which we are
here to embrace.

Salvete,
Sorry, but I couldn't help but post an off topic message. Patricia Cassia and
I have just come back from a pre U.S. opening of "Lord of the Rings"...
WOW.
It's not exactly true to the books, but I can't wait to see it again! Truly
awe-inspiring stuff, and true to most of the spirit of Tolkien's work, in my
opinion.

My special thanks to Priscilla Vedia Serena. You made a quite fair

congrats are very honourable.
To the candidates who will go to the second elections: I wish you all
the best, good luck and the bless of the gods for the upcoming votes.
To the elected magistrates: My heartful congratulations to all of you.
I wish you all a good hand for your term of office. May the gods be
with you!
Addressed to all candidates who were not elected: Your run for office
showed both honour and dedication, and I really hope that you will
show the same degree of dedication next year. Nova Roma needs you!

To be a client of another civis could be important in making
political decisions. I fail to see how being involved with another
organisation could have the same impact. If so, then all ye members
of the SCA declare yourselves! And you of the re-enactment legions
too! Frankly, it just makes no difference, unless the SVR were
trying to inflict damage on NR in some way.
However, for those of you who are uneasy about someone being in more
than one organisation: I, Marcus Scribonius Curio Britannicus, am a
member of the Societas Via Romana.

I think your face may be getting a little red, mi Drusus. You're
making a great deal of fuss about the SVR, but remember one thing;
Draco was the one who told the main list of the SVR. If they were
planning some great plot to take over NR, do you really think the
best strategy would be to tell everyone of the conspirators'
existence? If we intended any harm to NR, do you think we would have
told you of SVR's existence?

Had you decided to run for Tribune, would you have told NR of every
small organisation that you belonged to? Every charity org, every
political party, everything? No. Because they do not affect what
sort of person you are, nor what talents you have, within NR. And
nor does SVR.
Bene vale,
Marcus Scribonius Curio Britannicus.

Salve,
Does the term "conflict of Intrest" mean any thing to
you? It seems to mean something to the SVA which has
the following in it's application.
"Do you belong to any other Roman, Classical, Civic,
Political, Professional, Religious, Artistic or
Charitable organisations? If so, please list, together
with any offices you may hold."
That section IS marked as required information.
One Member of the SVA is Bradius V. Maurus Nee
Formosanus. I have been informed privatly that Gian G
Reali Nee Piscinus is also a member of SVA. Limitanus
is also listed as a member. These three men have shown
a considerable level of hostility towards the
Magistrates of Nova Roma in the past.
Bradius V. Maurus Nee Formosanus made this statement
on April 13th in the CPlT mail list.
" I am rather surprised, I must say, that you
announced your clientship to Sulla *after* the
election. It is possible that some of us would have
liked to know about this liaison with such a
controversial figure *before* voting."
Yet we see his allies holding back on disclosing a
"liaison" with at least THREE very "controversial
figures" who have repeatadly shown disdain for the
Senate and Magistrates of Nova Roma,and whom are
condicting the "liaison" in an organization that lacks
the open Forum that Nova Roma has.

I will gratulate with Marcus Audens: you superated me

Congratulations to all my future collegues:

Hmm. I recall that one of the reasons Austroccidentalis lost its Propraetor was that she recommended another Roman org to
potential NR members... and ironically, her replacement as our Propraetor is a member of that same org... if not the founder
himself.
Clearly, one can serve two Roman organizations just fine.

Gaius Minucius Hadrianus Omnibus Civibus S.P.D.
I would just like to offer my heartfelt congratulations to our newly
elected magistrates, and wish them the best of luck during thier
upcomming terms of office! Ave!
I would also like to remind everyone that it's not over yet, and
there still are run-off elections for Praetor and Quaestor comming
up, so please keep on voting!
Finally, having said that...I would like to remind everyone that I'm
one of those canididates running for Quaestor in the run-off
election, and was hoping you would cast your vote for me...please?
Pretty please?? =)
A bit about myself for the inquiring voter:
I have been a citizen of Nova Roman since August of 2000, and
have been serving in the offices of Legatus and Scriba Propraetoris
since February 2001. In my time in those offices I have organized
three face-to-face get-togethers in Nova Britannia and completely
revamped and hosted the Provincial website (www.shinjikun.com). I am
an active member of the Sodalitas Militarium, and an officer of the
Nova Roma sponsored Legio VI Victrix. I am one of NR's newly
appointed Lictors and practicioner of the Religio Romana. I am a
veteran of the U.S. Army, with 8 years of active service in the
Infantry and Armor branches, and 3 years of service with the
Massachusetts Army National Guard. I have just recently enlisted with
the Mass. Air National Guard and will attending the U.S. Air Force's
Explosive Ordanence Disposal (EOD) school in April, which I will
hopefully complete in October with all my fingers in place. =)
I see the office of Quaestor becoming an increasingly critical office
in NR with the advent of a taxation system, and I am confident in my
ability to work together with the other magistrates to effectively
adminsister NR soon to be growing treasury. I hope you all agree!

Salvete Quirites,
I thank all citizens who have expressed their congratulations to me
and to the other successful candidates.
To those who did not succeed in attaining office, I thank you for
trying, and ask you to consider serving in appointed provincial
offices. Your services will still be needed through the next year.
We are not finished electing magistrates for 2755. The "run-off"
election begins tomorrow, 6pm Roma (Noon US/Eastern), in which we
will try once more to elect two praetores, two quaestores, and
one rogator.
Shortly thereafter, if the Lex Vedia de Tribuni is ratified by
the Senate, the Plebeian citizens shall elect three more Tribunes
of the Plebs, for a total of five. This election will be called
by Tribunes Arminius and Salix, during the new year.
When I become Consul on January 1st, I shall appoint as my
Accensi, or advisors, Senatores Antonius Gryllus Graecus and
Titus Labienus Fortunatus, who are experts on religion and law,
respectively.
I invite all citizens to come to the Nova Roma Chat Forum,
http://www.novaroma.org/bin/chat/chat on January 1st, and I invite
all newly-elected magistrates to make their opening statements
there. Transcripts will be later placed in the archives.
The starting time for this public gathering will be
1800 Rome, 1700 UK, 1200 US/Eastern, 900 US/Pacific, Tue. Jan 1 2002.
Valete, Octavius.
Senior Consul-elect, MMDCCLV

Salvete Quirites
Though I do not believe that any connection I might have with the SVR has any
bearing on my obligations to Nova Roma, or on my ability to perform my duties
should I be elected, it is quite possible that, as I have made no effort to
hide my tracks on the SVR list (there was, and is, no reason to), one of my
opponents will attempt to make some political hay out of the fact that I have
posted to both the SVR's main list and its list dedicated to philosophy.
I am not a member of the SVR, the SCA, the Ermine Street Guard, any legion re-
enactment unit, the classics department of any university, or any other Roman-
or history-related group aside from Nova Roma. I do occasionally engage in
conversations with members of such organizations on those topics that I find
interesting. Some of these people are ex-cives of Nova Roma. That I can
remain friendly with people who dislike some of the things that I like is both
normal and, I believe, one of my good points.
That out of the way, I urge you, O Quirites, to vote for me on my merits, and
not against me due to this non-issue. I will make an excellent praetor if
elected, and I will (and do) take the duties of that office quite seriously.

Ave,
You may not have a "conflict of interest" by your
association with the SVR however others might. The
reason I say this is because there are those who are
anti-NR in the SVR and then those who are either
retaining friendly communication with the members of
the SVR. However, though there maybe SOME people in
the SVR who have not taken a hard line stance there
are those who have. For those who have, their dual
citizenship presents a conflict of interest. They
have an anti-NR attitude and lets say are elected to a
political position giving them a lot of sway. They
can then undermine NR or attempt to or prove to be
honorable and do the job and not serve their own
interests or desires

A quibble:

The SVR is not a micronation. Its members are therefore not citizens, and it
is impossible to have "dual citizenship" with the SVR. This is much akin to
saying that one could have dual citizenship with the SCA or the Federation of
American Scientists.
This is not to say that it is impossible to have a conflict of interest, or at
least available time, between the two groups. However, it behooves one to keep
the terms straight.

Ave,
You may indeed have been solely referring to
yourself, but you are not the only one in Nova Roma
who has "membership" with the SVR. Therefore, I was
taking what you stated and amplifying it to apply to
all who may have citizenship with Nova Roma and
"membership" with the SVR. It is neither wrong nor
improper to do so because depending on the person it
can quite possibly present a conflict of interest.
You say that one does not have citoizenship with
the SVR as they would in Nova Roma but rather that
they have "membership". I will agree with you on that
since your constitution makes no mention of members
having citizenship so it is not a micronation.
However, the SVR constitution does state:
"The Societas Via Romana is a transnational
fellowship and community dedicated to the remembrance,
reenactment, and, as far as applicable, re-creation,
of the Roman heritage of Mankind..."
However, if the SVr is re-creating/re-enacting
the Roman ways then it requires citizenship. You
cannot elect government officials without citizens.
So how can it just be limited to membership rather
than citizenship?
Your constitution is also very hypocritical in
what it says. Under the "Membership and Gentes" title
section A, you state: Any person may apply for
membership on a basis of equality, regardless of race,
sex, sexual orientation, nationality, ethnic group,
language preference or religious conviction." But then
later in section D you state: "Membership in or public
alignment with neo-fascist, ultra-rightest,
ultra-leftist, racist, anti-semitic, totalitarian or
terrorist organisations is considered adequate reason
for denial or withdrawal of membership." So inessence
you will discriminate against some but not against
others!?
"Failure to mention such affiliation or
orientation at time of membership application is due
cause for summary expulsion....Subsequent evidence of
such affiliations if discovered shall be reported to
the Praetores for investigation and possible expulsion
trial..."----Can we inavsion of ones right to privacy!
"Complete liberty of conscience and belief, and
authority over personal and household rites and
practices"---totally contradicts section D
Ah here we go the rights of "members"--"The right
to vote in elections as members of the Comitia
Generalia "---this looks like signs of citizenship to
me.
vale,
Quintus Cornelius Caesar

Apparently, you didn't read my original message in this thread very closely. I
am not, and never have been, a member of the SVR.
> However, if the SVr is re-creating/re-enacting

Does re-enacting in a Roman legio require citizenship? Does re-enacting in a
Confederate US Civil War regiment require one to secede from the modern US?
And, does one need to be a citizen of the National Rifle Association in order
to vote for its president? Groups--from clubs to fraternities to national
organizations--vote internally for their leadership all the time. This does
not require citizenship.
> Your constitution is also very hypocritical in

It is not my constitution. I neither wrote nor am bound by the constitution of
the SVR. Indeed, I have not even read it. As I said before, I am on their
list because there are people I like there, and they often talk about things
that interest me--to whit, Roman history and philosophy.

Ave,
I agree with you, Senator. However, this is going to be an issue here, at least his affiliation with known adversaries of Nova Roma. While Senator Labienus states he is not a member, and I thank him for his honesty in disclosing his status the question remains. How easily is it going to be for them to change their "society" to a micronation? Honestly, it looks very much like the possibility. Even Sextus Apollonius said that was the original intent, in his defense.

Salvete Quirites!
This list is seeing a lot of traffic again lately. I honestly wonder if some
people aren't getting finger cramp from pressing "delete" all the time.
However, on to serious matters. I will try to be brief, and will try to
address all replies to my original message.
Quintus Cornelius Caesar scripsit:
> The criticism of Formosanus is bad yet you

> than Lucius Sicinius Drusus.
RESPONDEO:
You be the judge. I usually don't claim moral superiority over my fellow
debater.
What I was basically doing, was defending a man who left from Nova Roma, who
is now being mocked behind is back, without a chance to reply. Lucius
Sicinius commented on a man's character he knew little about, on a
organisation he knew even less about, and finally someone else took liberty
to put his foot into Florus' recent marriage. This discussion was never
intended to be about bad guys and good guys.
Quintus Cornelius Caesar scripsit:
> In regards to the

> does not mean being opposed to patricians." Do you

RESPONDEO:
I completely disagree. Your reference to ETA and IRA is off base, and has
nothing to do with this discussion. Furthermore, did it ever occur to you
that opposition is a healthy thing?
Quintus Cornelius Caesar scripsit:
> You
> accuse Drusus of being vulgar yet where was the
> vulgarity? From my perspective it did nothing more
> than expose the hypocrisy.
RESPONDEO:
He did not. I would suggest you read my rebuttal of these accusations again
before you continue to swing the blade of accusation again. As for
vulgarity, calling the organisation I co-founded "Formyland", and using
other such descriptions is vulgar and insulting to me. I highly suggest you
check out our site for yourself and verify Lucius Sicinius' statements.
Lucius Sicinius Drusus scripsit:

Why would it. Only political vultures, scandalmongers and hysterics would

As Scriba to Marcus Arminius Maior, I repeatedly proposed ideas and plans,
and the first one to deliver his tasks, or to be on schedule, was
Formosanus. There is an insinuation in your words I can't really appreciate.
If I may remind you, except for Maior, _all of_ last year's Aediles have
been rather inactive, and the ones of the year before were even worse, yet
they were no member of any other organisation. Funny.

So much is true. However, republican Americans, or communist Italians, will
not be thrown out of SVR. As I said before, I was thinking of organisations
such as the Ku Klux Klan, revisionists, Cellule Combattante Communiste, ETA
or ALF that clearly present a danger to society or approve of those.
Communists or conservatives are not regarded as dangerous.

The European list was never a forum for SVR. The SVR list requires moderator

Why would that be of your business? Why all this paranoia?
For the record, I co-founded the Societas Via Romana in May 2001, and have
since been active as Censor in that place. I see no reason why my position
there would hinder my position here and vice versa. This is no question
about loyalty whatsoever, as SVR is not a micronation. I have the best
interests of Nova Roma at heart, as I have the best interests of SVR at
heart. That is completely possible, and not mutually exclusive.
And, if I may note, 3/4 of SVR's membership consists of people who are not
involved with Nova Roma.

Salvete Quirites!
This list is seeing a lot of traffic again lately. I honestly wonder if some
people aren't getting finger cramp from pressing "delete" all the time.
However, on to serious matters. I will try to be brief, and will try to
address all replies to my original message.
Quintus Cornelius Caesar scripsit:

RESPONDEO:
You be the judge. I usually don't claim moral superiority over my fellow
debater.
What I was basically doing, was defending a man who left from Nova Roma, who
is now being mocked behind is back, without a chance to reply. Lucius
Sicinius commented on a man's character he knew little about, on a
organisation he knew even less about, and finally someone else took liberty
to put his foot into Florus' recent marriage. This discussion was never
intended to be about bad guys and good guys.
Quintus Cornelius Caesar scripsit:
> In regards to the

> in the governemnt or ruling class it is opposition and

RESPONDEO:
I completely disagree. Your reference to ETA and IRA is off base, and has
nothing to do with this discussion. Furthermore, did it ever occur to you
that opposition is a healthy thing?
Quintus Cornelius Caesar scripsit:
> You
> accuse Drusus of being vulgar yet where was the
> vulgarity? From my perspective it did nothing more
> than expose the hypocrisy.
RESPONDEO:
He did not. I would suggest you read my rebuttal of these accusations again
before you continue to swing the blade of accusation again. As for
vulgarity, calling the organisation I co-founded "Formyland", and using
other such descriptions is vulgar and insulting to me. I highly suggest you
check out our site for yourself and verify Lucius Sicinius' statements.

Why would it. Only political vultures, scandalmongers and hysterics would

Welcome, Clodia Maria Omega!
I, for one, did not read your original post regarding your difficulties
becoming a citizen as hostile. It seemed to me that you were looking for
answers for a legitimate complaint about the difficulties that you
encountered, and your second posting here seems to indicate that there was a
communication problem.
I've had good experiences with the censores, who promptly and efficiently
handled multiple e-mail address changes for me before that function was
added to the web site. I hope that your future encounters with Nova Roman
officials are more pleasant than this first exchange on this list.
It helps to have a thick skin and a sense of humor when reading the main
list sometimes, especially when emotions are running high. As you may
already know, there are lots of other places to interact with Nova Romans.
If you are interested in the Religio, there's a list for that, and there's a
Latinitas list if you are interested in Latin. There are actually several
more as well, but those are two that came to mind immediately.
Happy Saturnalia, and do enjoy your happy first day of citizenship!

Salvete Quirites!
This is a very serious matter. I am sure that the weight of our Senior
Consul-Elect is enough, but my conscience forces me to state the following.
The fact that Illustrus Titus Labienus Fortunatus sometimes is active at
one or two lists organised by Societas Via Romana is absolutely irrelevant
to his activities here in Nova Roma. I have the utmost trust for him and I
recommend all cives to treat him fairly as I am sure that he will continue
to be an asset to our beloved Res Publica. Remember his responsible work as
a Tribunus Plebis, where all of us who were there had nothing but
admiration for his work in the beginning of this year. I have had the
pleasure to trust him with the first Praeceptorship in Academia Thules, a
position in which I expext him to excel.

RESPONDEO:
Why would it. Only political vultures, scandalmongers and hysterics would
make a fuss out of this. The matter of clientelism occured _within_ Nova
Roma. What I do outside of Nova Roma is not really anyone's business.
Sulla: Are you actually telling everyone on the Nova Roma main list that it is not our concern as citizens of Nova Roma that you have chosen to become involved in another organization that will drain your time and resources instead of devoting your time to Nova Roma and to the People of Nova Roma who elected you? Does conflict of interest mean NOTHING to you? I say to you, Sextus Apollonius that if that is the case step down from your newly elected position and give it to someone else who will devote the time and energy necessary to the Aedileship. You, Sextus Apollonius, cannot have your cake and eat it too. You should choose what organization you want to serve and devote your time to it. If it is not Nova Roma, be man enough to admit it and move on!

Of all the days my internet could be down, it just had to be yesterday... =)
I wish I could of made these statements earlier.
Citizens of Nova Roma I want to thank all who voted for me in this years
elections. In the new year you will receive the benefits of your decision in
the form of frequent entertainment, and cultural events hosted by me and my
fellow Aediles. I intend to make this year the most entertaining year in our
history. But our job is not limited to games. I shall strive to expand the
boarders of this office in this new year to include NovaRoma.org and also
work with the other honourable magistrates on different legal issues that
the Curules Aediles of old held.
I also want to congratulate my friend and colleague Caeso Fabius
Quintilianus. I look forward with working with Caeso as Curule Aedile and I
am honoured to have the chance to work with such a dedicated citizen. It
will be a great year indeed!
