Twenty years ago on this date, Nova Roma was founded thanks in large measure to Cassius and Vedius, whom we shall always honor. Our Republic has since spread far and wide and the historic body of our citizenship numbers in the thousands. Having reached this milestone, we should all be proud of our Republic's achievements. It is not an exaggeration to say that Nova Roma is the major proponent in today's world of Romanitas. On the Ides of October last, we celebrated the technical completion of Nova Roma's founding at the October Horse ritual under the organization of Pontifex Lentulus.

In a few weeks, dozens of our citizens will meet in our eternal home city at the Parilia to celebrate the Birthday of Rome. Amidst the festivities and parades, plans for our future activity will be discussed and we are open to any suggestions you may have. Local activity energizes the heartbeat of Nova Roma. Participate! We recently emerged from a difficult period and now that we are once again free and active our future is unlimited. May the gods look with favor upon our Republic and upon all of our citizens, associates and friends. Let the games begin!

Concordialia ritual this year for the 20th Anniversary

Pontifex Cn. Cornelius Lentulus is offering the Concordialia ritual today (1st March) for the 20th Anniversary of Nova Roma. Cn. Lentulus will offer the main Concordia-ritual for the jubilee, and a sacrifice to Iuppiter, Mars, Iuno and Dea Nova Roma. It will be a gathering and grand celebration of the 20th birthday of Nova Roma with 5 different Roman reenactor communities affiliated to Nova Roma coming together in honor of this milestone in New Roman History. There will be a magnificent sacrifice to Concordia, patroness of Nova Roma, there will be gladiatorial combats, which will be part of the online gladiatorial games, a legionary parade, wine, Roman food, cookies and the good company of Nova Romans. A big celebration and gathering!

REMEMBERING: Looking back to the 10th Anniversary

A chorus of young Nova Roman citizens performing the Carmen Decennale "Rome To New Rome" by P. Ullerius Stephanus Venator, a poem written for celebrating the ten years of Nova Roma

Recall the memories of the 10th Anniversary, one decade ago, and watch the video made about the 10th Anniversary Concordialia sacrificial ceremony here:

The video was 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, organized by Cn. Cornelius Lentulus.

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.

Last year's Concordialia photo and video report

You can remember the opening of our Sacred 20th Year at last year's Concordialia, when we celebrated our 19th Anniversary.

Opening of the Ludi Novi Romani

P. Annæus Constantinus Placidus Quiritibus salutem plurimam dicit.

It is with the utmost pleasure, and great personal joy, that I am hereby announcing the official Opening of this Twentieth Anniversary Edition of Ludi Novi Romani. Yes, you read it well: Twentieth Anniversary. Indeed, I have a feeling that it may surely look and seem like it was not anything longer than yesterday, or maybe the day before yesterday, that our founding forefathers Cassius and Vedius first came up with the idea of a community where people from all over the world, linked by a common interest towards the history, the culture, the religion and the virtues of Ancient Rome, could meet up and share with each other their views on what their common interest was about, and, in the hustle and bustle of our frantic, noisy, overcrowded 21st-century lives, try to find at least some semblance of a place where we all could live according to our ancestors' costumes... it does indeed seem quite a short time, yet it is twenty full years that such a place exists. Its name is NOVA ROMA. And, in spite of everything that may currently be happening within our beloved Republic, I think I am very much entitled to still see it as, first and foremost, an ideal meeting place.

This Sacred Year of Concordia will make a change in Nova Roma history, I can feel it. It is in this communal, meet-up spirit that these Ludi Novi Romani are meant to be celebrated. These games will include Ludi Circenses (a Virtual Chariot Race), Munera Gladiatoria, a history contest, a literary contest, Latin language contests and quizzes, and more. In the next few days, detailed announcements will be posted about all this. However, right now, I just would like not to waste any further time on preambles, introductions and other such verbosities. So, I hereby declare these 20th Anniversary Ludi Novi Romani officially OPEN!

Optime valete omnes,
Publius Annæus Constantinus Placidus

The Ceremonies

1 March - Concordialia: The Opening of the 20th Birthday Celebration of Nova Roma

On March 1st, the day of the Concordialia (the Day of Roman Unity), pontifex Cn. Lentulus holds the live central celebration of the 20th Anniversary where approximately 20-30 Nova Roman citizens will be present in Aquincum, Budapest. Cn. Lentulus will offer the main Concordia-ritual for the jubilee, and a sacrifice to Iuppiter, Mars, Iuno and Dea Nova Roma. It will be a gathering and grand celebration of the 20th birthday of Nova Roma with 5 different Roman reenactor communities affiliated to Nova Roma coming together in honor of this milestone in New Roman History. There will be a magnificent sacrifice to Concordia, patroness of Nova Roma, there will be gladiatorial combats, which will be part of the online gladiatorial games, a legionary parade, wine, Roman food, cookies and the good company of Nova Romans. A big celebration and gathering!

At the same time, all priests, governors and officials of Nova Roma, who aren't able to be present in person, are offering rituals to Concordia, Iuppiter and Mars for our 20th Anniversary, at their location.

3 March - "Sevso Treasures, Day 1": Priceless ancient Roman artefacts salute our 20th Anniversary

On 3rd March, as part of the Ludi Novi Romani, the 20th Anniversary of Nova Roma was celebrated by a very special festive program of Nova Roma held at a museum event featuring the world-famous Sevso Treasure, where pontifex Cn. Lentulus offered a ritual to Concordia, Iuppiter, Mars, Quirinus and Pales. Nova Roma's Colonia Rostallo, led by praefectus C. Villius Vulso, has presented the world-famous Sevso Treasure within the frames of the programs of the Ludi Novi Romani, celebrating the completion of Nova Roma's second decade. The Cohors VI Carpathica, the military unit assigned to the burgus Colonia Rostallo of Nova Roma, has deserved this privilege for their constant dedicated and high quality educational service in this region. Nova Roma was commemorated during the event, and newspaper and television reports were made about our appearance. Nova Romans were in the television while celebrating the 20th Anniversary of Nova Roma! It is a great honor to our Colonia Rostallo and to the entire Nova Roma that we have been selected to provide the show and festival for the Sevso Treasure which is one of the most important treasures that remained from the Roman age. These priceless ancient Roman artefacts saluted our 20th Anniversary, quite an honor!

The programs included the presentation of the Sevso Treasure, legionary honor guard and drill by the Cohors VI Carpathica, Roman ritual by praefectus rei publicae Cn. Lentulus for the 20th Anniversary blessings of the new decade of Nova Roma, Roman fashion, games and competitions in the spirit of the Ludi Novi Romani.
