−	~~The month~~ of ~~Februarius~~ [[~~MMDCCLXI~~]] saw the loss of several long-serving priests and senators, mostly due to a struggle to control of the [[Collegium Pontificum (Nova Roma)\|Collegium Pontificum]] and [[Collegium Augurum (Nova Roma)\|Collegium Augurum]].	+	Prior to the year {{2008}}, there was an increasingly laud complain from the part of the ''cultores'', practitioners of the Roman religion, that the priestly colleges of Nova Roma were not filling the role of religious guidance and leadership, they were not professionally functioning. Whether justified or not, the sentiment was strong, and [[Marcus Moravius Piscinus Horatianus (Nova Roma)\|M. Moravius Piscinus Horatius]], pontifex, augur and flamen, stood as the leader of the discontent ''cultores''. M. Piscinus proved to be a very decisive and strong leader, who effectively reached the planned goals, however, who caused great uproar with his firm actions on the other side of the political spectrum. He was filling the highest office in the republic in the year {{2008}}, he was consul, and as such he implemented the plans of changes in the religious leadership of Nova Roma. He and his supporting ''pontifices'' removed the original ''pontifex maximus'' of Nova Roma, M. Cassius Iulianus, and cited L. Equitius Cincinnatus to Nova Roman internal court for his non-compliance to the senate. As a result of these actions, the month of February saw the loss of several long-serving priests and senators, mostly due to their renunciation of citizenship in protest to this struggle to control of the [[Collegium Pontificum (Nova Roma)\|Collegium Pontificum]] and [[Collegium Augurum (Nova Roma)\|Collegium Augurum]].

With this in hand, ~~Consul~~ Piscinus demanded that ~~Pontifex Maximus~~ [[Marcus Cassius Iulianus (Nova Roma)\|M. Cassius Iulianus]] add ~~Senators~~ to the Collegium Pontificum list.
