7/4/99
I, Decius Iunius Palladius, Consul of Nova Roma, hereby convene the Senate to an
emergency session to vote on the following:
"Whereas the current situation in Nova Roma is intolerable and threatens the very
existence of Nova Roma both as a nation and as a membership organization, and,
"Whereas this crisis, while precipitated by a single incident, has at its root many
causes that must be addressed so as to avoid any similar situations in the future, as well
as to ensure the orderly and enjoyable continuation of Nova Roma, and,
"Whereas any solution to the present crisis should and must be done in accordance
with the Constitution of Nova Roma,
"Do we, the Senate of Nova Roma, by vote of a majority, hereby appoint Flavius Vedius
Germanicus to the office of Dictator, and invest in him complete authoritas and imperium,
trusting him to resolve the present crisis and take whatever steps he deems necessary to
prevent its recurrence in the future."
In the name of the Senate and People of the New Rome,
And in the sight of the Gods,
Signed,
Decius Iunius Palladius, Consul of Nova Roma
