Item V passes with 20 votes in favor 0 opposing and 0 abstentions
- The Senate acknowledges and approves the request from Provincia Hispania sent by Propraetor Lucius Didius Geminus Sceptius.
Salvete omnes, Illustris Senators et Consuls
I write this petition in order to fulfill the unanimous will of the
Provincia Hispania about the 2003 created new Cultural Asociation in
Spain named "Provincia Hispania de Nova Roma". This will consist in
a formal recognition of the Senate and the Consuls of such
Asociation as part of Nova Roma. Such recognition will also be the
recognition of our standards of working and our internal procedures
that affect the day-to-day of novaroman affairs and that are imposed
by the Spanish laws.
As some of you know, in Hispania, in order to make a dynamical
Province, we elect a candidate for presentation to the Senate as the
next year's propraetor, and upon Senate confirmation this person
acts as the President of the Asociation in the Kingdom of Spain.
Besides, the Legatus and Scribae are choosen too between those
candidates that has the will to serve our Res Publica in the
Province, being then appointed by the Propraetor/President, as
she/he follows the will of the Province/Asociation. Thus the
composition of our Provincial Government is the composition of the
Board of Managers of the Asociation. The Propraetor is the
President. The Legatus Internis the Treasurer, and the Aedilis
Sociorum our Secretary. Then we have a number of Decurii or Vocals
of the Board that advices the Government, while at last there is
the General Assembly where all the citizens/members of the
Asociation choose the officers told above.
We in Hispania has also too many people in the Album Gentium who
doesn't pariticipate too much in the day-to-day affairs of the
Province, but also a lot of people who wants to join the Asociation
without being part of Nova Roma. This dual nature makes us strongers
because the people who doesn't join us via Nova Roma, does via the
Asociation. And I would like to say, this model works and the Senate
should think about what's going on with Nova Roma, its Gens System,
the recruitment policies and further loyalties of the citizens
(Being active part of Nova Roma, not just another empty name in the
Album Gentium).
With this Asociation, Hispania wants to make real his duty in the
front of Nova Roma and specially in the front of Hispania. Being a
Cultural Asociation makes us more capable to get grants and aids
from governments in order to make different actions. We are
currently working in a campaign to preserve and protect the romans
remainings of the Oppidum Complutum, in Madrid. We also will start
in a few months a campaign in schools where lectures will be given
to the scholars in order to make them now about Rome and its
heritage. Culture, Religion, Language, Military, Society...
I encourage the wise members of this chamber to vote for this
recognition that implies the recognition of our procedures imposed
by law and by use, because this will tighten the relation of Nova
Roma with one of his most enthusiastic Provinces, Hispania. I ask
then the recognition of our spanish Asociation "Provincia Hispania
de Nova Roma" as part of Nova Roma.
