===CONSULAR REMARKS===
 +
 +
C. Aemilius Crassus Consul Quiritibus SPD,
 +
 
 +
It is an honor to be here today speaking as Consul of Nova Roma and also in behalf of my esteemed colleague, Sta. Cornelia Aeternia Consul Maior of Nova Roma.
 +
 
 +
Today Nova Roma celebrates our 16th year and we start the Ludi Novi Romani and the celebration of the Concordialia. First of all we should thank Patres Patriae Marcus Cassius Iulianus and Flavius Vedius Germanicus for the concretization of their vision and creation of Nova Roma.
 +
 
 +
We also should remember why we are in Nova Roma, what brought us here, the deep love and admiration for Roma Antiqua, its achievements, its culture and its religion. We all have different visions of how we should adapt our community  to harmonize with the constraints of our modern society to our goal of reviving Roma Antiqua but we all share that common goal, in fact it is the reason Nova Roma exists.
 +
 
 +
This being so it is very  fitting that  we also celebrate the Concordialia, the celebration of our  beginnings and the remembrance of what brings us together, honoring Pater Ianus and Mater Concordia and at the same time honoring Pater Mars, father of Romulus and Remus founders of Roma Antiqua.
 +
 
 +
I would like to thank Curule Aedilis L. Vitellius Triarius and all his staff for the organization of the Ludi which I hope we all enjoy!
 +
 
 +
Valete optime.

 +
 +
 +
 +
====Rules for the NR RTW Championship====
 +
 +
:1. You must play a Roman faction.
 +
 +
:2. You must build your army from 15.000 denarii (you are not required to use all 15.000, but you may not use more).
 +
 +
:3. The only rule regarding the unit composition of armies is that you may not use more units of cavalry than units of infantry. The general, if it's a cavalry unit, shall not be counted.
 +
 +
:4. Battlefield must be the plain ground (no mountains or forests). Midday, summer, sunny weather, no rain. Time limit: 15 min.
 +
 +
:5. Battle must be recorded by the RTW program, converted into a video file and sent to me or uploaded to YouTube. In this, the organizer will help you. The organizer/jury shall wittness all battles as a non-fighter third participant, but in case if the time scheduling with players is impossible, players will be allowed to play without the jury wittnessing, but in this case videorecording the battle sending it  to the judge is essential.

The Ludi Novi Romani are the games celebrating the founding of Nova Roma, 16 years ago.

ConcordialiaOfLentulus&Popillia2767.jpg

Concordialia ritual this year

Pontifex and sacerdos Concordiae, Cn. Cornelius Lentulus and his popa, the scriba Popillia Laenas have performed the Concordialia ritual today, and here you can see a picture made about the official 16th birthday ceremony of our republic:

REMEMBERING: Concordialia MMDCCLXI Video

Enjoy the video made about the 10th Anniversary Concordialia here:

The video is made about the official 10th Anniversary Celebration of the founding of Nova Roma, the 10th birthday of Nova Roma, held on the Kalends of March, 2761 AUC, during the consulship of M. Moravius Piscinus Horatianus and T. Iulius Sabinus, organized by Cn. Cornelius Lentulus and Pannonian citizens of Nova Roma.

You can also hear the reading of the Latin variant of the Declaration of Nova Roma, our founding document, with subtitles, captured on the same day, recorded by Cn. Lentulus.

Opening of the Ludi Novi Romani

OPENING REMARKS

L. Vitellis Triarius et scribae omnibus salutem plurimam dicit.

Si valetis, bene est, ego valeo.

Salvete omnes!

On behalf of the Office of the Ædilis curulis of Nova Roma, we are honored to welcome you on this rainy morning in Roma to the 16th Annual Ludi Novi Romani and this, our birth day of the Respublica, the Concordalia!

I and my Cohors aedilicia, Pontifex Gn. Corneliu lentulus, C. Maria Caeca, L. Ulpius Atellus and Ti. Cassius Atellus, with our esteemed Consuls, Sta. Cornelia Aeternia and C. Aemilius Crassus, look forward to the coming days, where we will present to you games in honor of Father Ianus and Mother Concordia.

During the coming days, these games will consist of a Latin learning contest, a Rome Total War competition, a literary contest, virtual chariot racing and gladiatorial games, and some other unique and fun stuff.

As we have just recently completed the third lustrum for the Respublica, we now begin a new five-year period. It is fitting that these games be offered in honor of Father Ianus, the bringer of new beginnings, and to Mother Concordia, bringer of harmony to the Nova Roman people, the Quirites.

We shall invoke them and ask them to be benevolent and propitious to us during these games, beginning on the Kalends of Martius and continuing until the Ides.

Here in my home this morning, the House of the Vitellii, I performed, as part of the ceremonies of this Ludi and as a duty of my office as Ædilis curulus, the Kalends and Dies Natalis rites on behalf of the Nova Romani, which will be followed later this morning by the official opening ceremonial rites of the Concordalia and Ludi Novi Romani by our Pontifex, Gn. Cornelius Lentulus.

CONSULAR REMARKS

C. Aemilius Crassus Consul Quiritibus SPD,

It is an honor to be here today speaking as Consul of Nova Roma and also in behalf of my esteemed colleague, Sta. Cornelia Aeternia Consul Maior of Nova Roma.

Today Nova Roma celebrates our 16th year and we start the Ludi Novi Romani and the celebration of the Concordialia. First of all we should thank Patres Patriae Marcus Cassius Iulianus and Flavius Vedius Germanicus for the concretization of their vision and creation of Nova Roma.

We also should remember why we are in Nova Roma, what brought us here, the deep love and admiration for Roma Antiqua, its achievements, its culture and its religion. We all have different visions of how we should adapt our community to harmonize with the constraints of our modern society to our goal of reviving Roma Antiqua but we all share that common goal, in fact it is the reason Nova Roma exists.

This being so it is very fitting that we also celebrate the Concordialia, the celebration of our beginnings and the remembrance of what brings us together, honoring Pater Ianus and Mater Concordia and at the same time honoring Pater Mars, father of Romulus and Remus founders of Roma Antiqua.

I would like to thank Curule Aedilis L. Vitellius Triarius and all his staff for the organization of the Ludi which I hope we all enjoy!

Valete optime.

L. Vitellius Triarius Ædilis Curulis


CONCORDALIA RITUAL

[Recommended Roman lyre music to reading ("Lambent Flames", invoking the Lambent Flames in our hearts of the burning desire to restore Aeneas' New City, to build up our New Home in place of the Old Troy):

[1]

from the Hungarian Miklós Rózsa, the best composer of Roman styled music.

CN CORNELIUS LENTULUS : PONTIFEX: SACERDOS CONCORDIAE : QUIRITIBUS : S P D

Salvete et avete, Novi Romani Quirites!

Vivat Nova Roma!

I salute every single fellow citizen of mine on this wonderful and glorious day, on the 16th Birthday of Nova Roma, when we celebrate the founding of our Republic. Concordia is our Patron Goddess, because it is Concordia, the Agreement, that brings us together here in this Nation of Will. Each and everyone of you is here because you AGREE. You all agree in something. We might different in almost everything, but there is a concord between us, there is She, Concordia between us, who links us together inseparably.

We celebrate today this Agreement. That we agree in Rome. We agree that we want Rome to live again. We agree that we want to revive the Roman nation, their traditions, virtues, their culture and religion. The whole. Not religion, not military, not clothing, not Latin, not politics, not literature, not architecture, not arts, but everything together. The whole, except what would be criminal and immoral, like slavery, or impossible, like living without electricity and modern medicines. This Agreement is what we celebrate today. That we came from all over the world, and met each other because of this Agreement. I think it is worthy to be celebrated, because it is a miracle that it can happen. No other time or age would have made it possible, except this time, our age. Our Nova Roman Concordia is worthy of celebration.

We agree in Concordia that we want to revive the Roman culture and traditions. Not as Hungarians, or Americans, or Canadians, or Italians, or Brasilians, who play Roman, but as a reborn Roman nation ourselves. We agreed to revive the Roman. To be Roman.

From today on, in the next 15 days, we shall live with this thought in our mind. We will use these days to immerse in the significant religious symbols celebrated with Concordia, during the festive days of the ludi Novi Romani. As the decree of the pontiffs on the ludi Novi Romani says: "The ludi Novi Romani, celebrating the Concordialia as the founding of Nova Roma, thus alternatively called ludi Concordiales, shall be held each year from the Concordialia on the Kalends of March to the Feriae Annae Perennae on the Ides of March. The first day, the Concordialia, symbolizes the conception of Nova Roma on the Feriae Martis, the day of Mars, the Father of the Nova Roman nation, which day is also the Matronalia, the day of the Mothers, celebrating the growth of the Roman population by birth, as the day when the fatherly and motherly creative powers, united in Concord, in the Agreement of People in their utmost wish to revive and restore the populus Romanus, give birth to the new sons and daughters of Mars, the Nova Roman people of the Quirites. As the days grow from the Kalends to the Ides, being under the protection of Mars as Feriae Martis days, so does Nova Roma grow under the protection of Mars. Concluding with the Ides of March, sacred to Jupiter, Supreme God of the Roman people, the festivities reach the old New Year's Day of the Romans, thus ending on the old day of new beginning, which is the Feriae of Anna Perenna, Goddess of the Year, Perennial Life and Eternity, the festival of longevity, representing the wish of the Nova Roman people for a perennial life of Nova Roma, and symbolizing that, by stopping the days of the ludi on Her day, Anna Perenna brings the celebration and the festive prayers of the Nova Romans with Herself towards eternity, and, under the custody of Anna Perenna, Nova Roma may live triumphantly forever."

We can hear from time to time there is no such thing as a common Mos Maiorum, and that everybody has his own Roman Mos Maiorum. Some people say it is Mos Maiorum to leave one year out of office between holding two elected magistracies, others' Mos Maiorum is to hold offices in continuation, without leaving a year off. Everyone has its own Mos Maiorum. Is it true? Or isn't? The truth is, Quirites, that Mos Maiorum is Latin for "the custom of the ancestors". Nobody has his own Mos Maiorum, because there is only one Mos Maiorum, the one found in history books. Everything else is personal Mos, personal preference, and not the Mos Maiorum. The Roman Mos Maiorum varied over history, so it includes a wide range of possible ideas. The true Mos Maiorum is not monolith, not a single minded ideology. In this sense, it is true that two people can have different views on what is the correct custom of the ancestors. But there are some basics which are unquestionable, and these basics are what keep us together in Nova Roma.

We celebrate this basis, this common part of the Mos Maiorum today. This basis, this common part of the various Mores Maiorum can be regarded our Goddess Agreement, Concordia: She brought Nova Roma to life, She keeps it in existence, and She will bring us to victory.

Let's pray to Her for a more successful and more real Nova Roma, for a Nova Roma to be an asset to the people of this world, for a Nova Roma that would nurture a New Renaissance.



This has been the ritual I have performed today morning in the name of the Republic, for every magistrate, for single citizen, on the Kalends of March, Concordialia, Feriae Marti, Matronalia:


SACRIFICIUM CONCORDIAE KALENDIS MARTIIS DIE FESTIVISSIMO ANNIVERSARII XVI NOVAE ROMAE CONDITAE


Favete linguis!

Beginning of the sacrifice.


(PRAEFATIO)

Dea Concordia, Concordia Novae Romae, Concordia Senatus Populique Novi Romani, Concordia Populi Novi Romani Quiritium, Concordia civium Novorum Romanorum, Concordia deorum et mortalium, Dea pacis et salutis et gloriae Populi Novi Romani Quiritium, hisce Kalendis Martiis anniversarii sexti decimi Novae Romae conditae, hoc die festivissimo et sanctissimo Novae Romae conditae, te hoc ture commovendo bonas preces precor, uti sies volens propitia Populo Novo Romano Quiritibus, Reique Publicae Populi Novi Romani Quiritium, mihi, domo, familiae!

[Goddess Concordia, the Concordance of Nova Roma, the Concord of the Senate and the People of Nova Roma, the Concordance of the Nova Roman People of the Quirites, the Concordance of the Nova Roman citizens, the Concord of the gods and the mortals, Goddess of peace and welfare of the Nova Roman People of the Quirites, on these Kalends of March of the 16th anniversary of the founding of Nova Roma, on this most festive and sacred day of the founding of Nova Roma, by offering you this incense, I pray good prayers so that you may be benevolent and propitious to the Nova Roman People of the Quirites, to the Republic of the Nova Roman People of the Quirites, to me, to my household and to my family.]

Incense is placed in the focus of the altar.

Dea Concordia, Concordia Novae Romae, Concordia Senatus Populique Novi Romani, Concordia Populi Novi Romani Quiritium, Concordia civium Novorum Romanorum, Concordia deorum et mortalium, Dea pacis et salutis et gloriae Populi Novi Romani Quiritium, uti te ture commovendo bonas preces bene precatus sum, eiusdem rei ergo macte lacte inferio esto!"

[Goddess Concordia, the Concordance of Nova Roma, the Concord of the Senate and the People of Nova Roma, the Concordance of the Nova Roman People of the Quirites, the Concordance of the Nova Roman citizens, the Concord of the gods and the mortals, Goddess of peace and welfare of the Nova Roman People of the Quirites, as by offering you the incense I have well prayed good prayers, for the very same reason be thou blessed by this sacrificial milk.]

ITALIA, VENEDIA AND PANNONIA CELEBRATE THE CONCODIALIA, THE BIRTHDAY OF NOVA ROMA JOINTLY

After the central and common ceremony, I have conducted Italia's, Pannonia's and Venedia's sacrifices, too. But this is another issue, and I will not send these rituals here, only into the provincial lists.

[Recommended Roman lyre music to reading ("Lambent Flames", invoking the Lambent Flames in our hearts of the burning desire to restore Aeneas' New City, to build up our New Home in place of the Old Troy):

from the Hungarian Miklós Rózsa, the best composer of Roman styled music.


VIVAT NOVA ROMA ANNORUM XVI!

LONG LIVE THE 16-YEARS-OLD NOVA ROMA!

VALETE IN CONCORDIA, QUIRITES!

SACRIFICE TO IUPPITER OPTIMUS MAXIMUS

SALVETE!

Nova Roma was founded sixteen years ago. The foundation represent an important and essential moment which transform Nova Roma in something unique which can not be substitute or replaced.

During our short and sometime tumultuous history, our Gods were here, witnessing our birth as New Romans, our actions and work. Showing pietas to the Gods, our common goal is the day by day improvement of our still young New Roman State. All what we need to that is wisdom and patience.


Today, I performed the following ritual to Iuppiter Optimus Maximus to honor Him, to honor his past and present approval of what we are:


Favete linguis!


(PRAEFATIO)

Iuppiter Optime Maxime, te hoc ture commovendo bonas preces precor, uti sies volens propitius Populo Novo Romano Quirítibus, mihi, domo, familiae!

Incense was placed in the focus of the altar.

Iuppiter Optime Maxime, uti te ture commovendo bonas preces precatus sum, eiusdem rei ergo macte vino inferio esto!"

Libation of wine was made.


(PRECATIO)

Iuppiter Optime Maxime, hoc die festivissimo ludorum Novum Romanum anniversarioque sextio decimo Novae Romae conditae, te precor et quaeso: uti Rem Publicam Populi Novi Romani Quiritium confirmes, augeas, adiuves;

uti gloria, virtus, fortitudoque Populi Noví Romini Quiritium hoc anno anniversario sextio decimo Novae Romae conditae crescant et convalescant;

uti sis volens propitiusque consulibus nobis, et praetoribus, aedilibus, quaestoribus, tribunis plebis, senatoribus, alterisque civibus, praesentibus, mihi, domo, familiae!


(SACRIFICIUM)

Wine and incense were placed in the fire.

Quarum rerum ergo macte hoc víno libando, hoc ture ommovendo esto fíto volens propitius hoc anno anniversario sextio decimo Novae Romae conditae populo Novo Romano Quiritibus, nobis, domibus, familiis!

Libation was made and incense sacrificed.

Ilicet!


(PIACULUM)

Iane, Iuppiter, Iuno, Minerva, Concordia, Omnes Dí Immortales:

si quid vobis in hac caerimonia displicuit, hoc vino inferio veniam peto et vitium meum expio.

Libation of wine was made.


VALETE,

T. Iulius Sabinus Acting Pontifex Maximus
