Sextus Apollonius is correct. Any organization that works to increase
knowledge and appreciation of ancient Rome should rightly be regarded
as a friend and ally of Nova Roma. I wish them well, and hope that we
may find common ground to work together on projects such as Roman
events, publications, and public-service efforts. Our enemies are
apathy and ignorance, and I suggest we turn our attention to them.

Indeed. My contention is, however: it's not enough to sequester the
arts and then continue governing. Witness Cicero:
"Nec vero habere virtutem satis est quasi artem aliquam nisi utare;
[...] usus autem eius est maximus civitatis gubernatio." 1)
In the spirit of high Roman politics, I press that our governors be
screened for fluency in language and arts; for only then can we be
governed in the best interest of Rome's rebirth, and not for the sake of
a degenerate simulation.
Vince igitur atque vale.
1) "It's not sufficient to possess the virtue's artistry if you don't
employ her; [...] indeed the governance of the state is the optimal
employment of artistry." (de re publica; Lib. I c. 2)

You are free to impose any rules you choose on the
Governers in the SVR. I Intend to look at all the
qualifications of a potential Propraetor for Nova
Roma, not just the one's that suit your agenda, or
anyone elses. I Have no intention of turning down an
otherwise qualified canidate because he fails to meet
some arbitrary rule desired by one segment of the
population.

A. Apollonius Cordus to Saxus Pitrinius Atheniensis
and all citizens and peregrines, greetings.

Any desire to get closer to the spirit of Romanitas is
worth considering, but it also must be borne in mind
that Nova Roma needs to function efficiently as an
organization, as well as to be authentic. I would
respectfully suggest that when the Senate is swamped
by highly competent and active applicants for
Governorships, then it would be worth considering
adding additional criteria for their selection. At the
moment, though, I don't think (though I am not a
Senator, so I don't know for certain) that this is the
position, and it is rather better for citizens in a
given province to have a good Governor who can't speak
Latin than to have no Governor.
This, of course, is merely a personal view: I don't
speak in any official capacity.
