Canalinsula approved
The government gives the green light to Bellator's project to connect the three islands of Selucia through underwater tunnels

Left: map of the tunnels; Right: Scheme of its design

Selucia could soon stop depending to a great extent on Transinsula, the transport system devised in 4443 by the then Minister of Transport Abelus Thurinus, through which a regular communication between the three islands was established for the transport of travelers by boats. .

However, Gavia Bellator's proposal, which has received the approval of the Aedile of Infrastructure and Transport and the Quaestor of Environment and Tourism, would save transport time for citizens, as well as allow better transport of goods and reduce the environmental impact and whose name is an abbreviation of the Selucian words "Canalis" (Channel) and "Insula" (Island).

According to the plan presented, the idea is to connect the three islands that make up Selucia through a series of tunnels built under the seabed, through which a series of trains would circulate for the transport of people and vehicles without detriment to the ecosystem found above. To do this, three tunnels will be created below the water: one that connects Oleria with Aquilonia, another Aquilonia with Sadaria and the last Sadaria with Oleria. The entrance and exit of these tunnels is easily located on the islands of Aquilonia and Sadaria, since it will be located at the lowest point of the island, which practically coincides with the division between provinces, while in the case of Oleria, the The tunnel that connects it with Sadaria will take place in a more mountainous environment, due to its geography.

The project, whose works are expected to begin immediately, will take about five to six years, and its construction will be accompanied by the construction of above-ground train stations at the point where the tunnel emerges on each island.

According to the studies carried out by Quaestor, these tunnels will reduce the environmental impact generated in the waters of Selucia by the continuous traffic of boats day after day, as well as a more efficient and faster way of transporting elements from one island to another. with less costs of those derived from air transport.

The project, which is expected to have a high cost, will be assumed by the national and regional governments, as well as by the various companies in charge of carrying it out.

"Purple Wave" in Selucia
a.d. XIII Kal. Apr. MMMLVII a.R.P.c. / March 20, 4868

Centrist Vasudharman Pattanadhipati won the Consular elections by a landslide

The second test for Selucia's new demarchic political system, whereby the legislative is randomly selected from among ordinary citizens while the executive is elected by popular vote, has yielded its results. The centrist Popular Republican Party, descendent of the traditional conservative Selucian Traditional Movement, has won the Consular elections by a landslide. Populares candidate Vasudharman Pattanadhipati won 57.47% of the Consular vote, allowing him to nominate his running mate Olcinia Cotta as his co-Consul and to have a cabinet formed solely of MPR magistrates confirmed by the People's Assembly. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the office of Censor, only rarely held by the now opposition COSIRA, was won once again by the centrist party, as former Consul Numerius Flavonius Calogerus defeated Olympio Celer-Loukas, of the famous Celer political dynasty, granting the Populares the power to nominate the Senate's life-long members. The Praetorial elections too yielded their surprises. In the Selucian confederal system the nation is divided into three sovereign Republics, corresponding to the territories of the three main Selucian islands. Each of these Republics is governed by two Praetors, paralleling the collegial system in place at the federal level, and the Praetors are elected by universal suffrage at the same time as the selection of the Assembly and the election of the Consuls takes place. Surprisingly, the previous ruling party COSIRA failed to win any of the six Praetorships, even losing its traditional stronghold in Oleria. Although the Popular Republican Movement only contests elections at the national level and does not field candidates for the Praetorships, parties loosely affiliated with the MPR now govern all three Republics. In Aquilonia a coalition between the Hosian Democratic Federation of Aquilonia and the Aquilonian Conservatives has moved the Republic firmly to the right, while Sadaria is now governed by a coalition between the Sadarian nationalist Sadarian National Party and the agrarian and Pagan Sadarian Peasants' Party. Olerian Dawn, the Olerian branch of COSIRA and the party that has governed the island uninterruptedly since 4822, has lost the region for the first time in almost fifty years, as the liberal conservative People's Party of Oleria managed to occupy both of the island's Praetorships.

The only reason why Selucia is now not under a Populares monopoly is because said party refused to contest elections in the Republics. But the latest election grants the young centrist party an unprecedented degree of influence in Selucia, allowing the new Pattanadhipati-Cotta government the power to pursue its goals unhindered by a coalition partner. The new government has pledged to steer Selucia on the "path of moderation, compromise, and reason" and to avoid the pitfalls of "radical leftism and Hosian extremism". In terms of foreign affairs, the new government pledged to continue cultivating Selucia's strengthening ties with Deltaria, vowing to defend the cause of national sovereignty and support the struggle of the Pilese people against Vascanian imperialism, and promising to use Selucia's expected membership in the Security Council to further enshrine and protect the right of self-determination of all peoples.

Election bump
Gavia Bellator calls COSIRA to redesign itself after unexpected and sad results, such as the loss of the Olerian government


Image
Olympio Celer-Loukas after being elected regional secretary of Oleria

The 4867 elections have been a serious setback for COSIRA, which has seen its most popular representatives lose their seats, and the party has descended to unexpected results. Paradoxically, they are not by far the worst results in terms of number of votes, but they have been poorly distributed enough that COSIRA does not manage to win in any of the regions, nor does the Censorship or the Consulship.

In Oleria, the charismatic Ballio Thrasea has lost his position as the island's Praetor after twenty years in uninterrupted power, and after nearly half a century of successive Olerian Dawn governments. Some political analysts attribute this defeat, the most unexpected of all those that have taken place this election night, to the confidence of the Olerian Dawn voters themselves, who took it for granted that a new term of Ballio Thrasea was more than assured and consequently, did not turn out to vote. Immediately after knowing the results, Mr. Thrasea appeared before the cameras to announce that he had already communicated to his close friend and secretary general of the party, Mrs. Gavia Bellator, his decision to retire from the regional leadership and rededicate himself to the investigation. Elections to the regional secretariat were immediately called, which ended up being won by a surprise candidate: Olympio Celer-Loukas.

Mr. Celer-Loukas, who stood in the elections as a candidate for Censor for COSIRA, lost by a fairly wide margin, 42% to 58%, although he himself has identified it with the "haste" with which he was elected to the position and for the short time to campaign. Now, Mr. Celer-Loukas, whom many already identify as the youngest member of the Celer family, returns his family this way to the front line of politics, and after learning that he was only a consensus candidate for the Censorship after the unexpected resignation of Epidia Barbatus, will now focus his efforts on returning the government of Oleria, a region that has always smiled at the Celers, to the party.

As a new candidate for Censor, Caecia Glaucia has been elected, a veteran of politics who has also practiced for several decades as a criminal lawyer, and who intends to turn the fate of the party in the fight for this position in the next elections - COSIRA has only won the Censorship three times.

After the electoral results, Gavia Bellator acknowledged that "they were not as expected", but that things had not been done well after the departure of Epidia Barbatus, and has asked the militants a little patience to organize the party "from here to five years". She has also declared not to regret the measures that her government has been applying during the past legislature, and has appealed to continue applying left-wing policies against "immobilists" and "conservatives."

"Now that we have returned to a system in which we only have two parties at the national level, it is very important to highlight the differences between us. And that is what we have to do during this term, although our strength has been considerably diminished. ".

Selucia will be represented by the song Aŭgusta

After the disappointing seventh place finish for Selucia's contestant Vel Amatius at Fomat VII, the Selucian public has decided to send a different kind of act to the eighth edition of the Festival of Musical Arts in Terra, to be held in the Deltarian city of Naban. The contestant representing Selucia will be young pop artist Salvius Falconius. Salvius is known to incorporate salsa and other Seleyan influences in her work, and the song chosen to represent Selucia is no different. Aŭgusta is a salsa and R&B-influenced pop song with a historical and mythological theme. The song chronicles the beginning of the romance between Antonios (OOC Antinous) and Augustan Emperor Lysander I; in a tale well known to the followers of Antonios, the young man, originally from the Augustan Empire's capital of Augusta, performs on a stage in the small city of Sebasta (today Sebasto in Zardugal) to an audience that includes Augustan Emperor Lysander I, then on a military campaign, and it is during the performance that the emperor and the actor fall in love. The song tells the tale of how the divine Antonious falls in love with the man from Sebasta, although he has left his heart in his hometown of Augusta. Deified after his death by the mourning Emperor, Antonios enjoyed a popular cult throughout Majatra, reaching Selucia as well during the Middle Ages. The largely Pagan nation remains the only place where Antonios is still worshipped as a god, and the song chosen to represent Selucia honors his love for Empreror Lysander while also highlighting Antonios' originally mortal and very human nature, as the young man tries to resist his incipient romantic feelings for the Augustan monarch.

In spite of the Deltarian prohibition on explicitly political content during the next edition of FOMAT, the Selucian entry may cause controversy due to its not so subtle endorsement of Selucian persecution of the Aurorian Patriarchal Church. The latter is an illegal organization in Selucia partially due to its opposition to same-sex marriage, while Selucian polytheism has in recent years presented itself as Selucia's most LGBT-friendly religion, placing special emphasis on the worship of Antonios. If the song's message will be deemed too overtly political by the Festival's organizers, then Selucia might have an even shorter run at FOMAT VIII than at the previous edition.

Selucia Turns Left
a.d. XVII Kal. Dec. a.R.P.c. / November 15, 4872

Image
Consul-elect Maria Cassia Aquilina will lead a coalition with regional parties

This month’s election in Selucia has marked a shift towards the left in all three constituent Republics. Perhaps as a reaction to the rising left-wing tide that has swept the continent of Majatra, and especially the emergence of a new socialist regime in Deltaria, the largest left-leaning parties in the three Republics managed to win the Praetorial elections. Olerian Dawn, the regional branch of Bright Dawn – COSIRA in Oleria, has returned to power and reclaimed both of the island’s Praetorships. In Aquilonia the Hosian Democratic Federation of Aquilonia is now forced to govern together with Aquilonia Forward, a regional social democratic party. Most unexpectedly, the agrarian Sadarian Peasants’ Party, whose Selucian name can also be translated as the Sadarian Pagan Party, now finds itself sharing the Praetorship of Sadaria with the far-left Communist Party of Sadaria, who defeated the incumbent Praetor backed by the Sadarian National Party, the traditional coalition partner of the Peasants’ Party. The Communist Party was founded by former members of COSIRA dissatisfied with the party’s moderation, and has emerged victorious following its campaign focused on Sadarian independence and the establishment of a Deltarian-style socialist system in an independent Sadaria. The torch of Sadarian nationalism has thus passed from the moderate nationalist right to the far left.

Although little has changed in the national election and legislative sortition, with the candidate of the centrist Popular Republican Movement, Maria Cassia Aquilina, defeating her rival, the candidate of COSIRA, the changing mood in the Republics has forced the Consul-elect to forge a coalition with the regional parties. All executive magistrates must be approved by the People’s Assembly, but as the latter is a non-partisan legislature the cabinet cannot rely on inter-party negotiations for parliamentary support. Instead any new government is forced to create a coalition broad enough to obtain the support of a majority of Quirites, based on the estimated political orientation of the nation. In order to guarantee the approval of her proposed magistrates, Consul Aquilina established a coalition with the Sadarian Peasants’ Party and with Aquilonia Forward, granting the former three magistratures and one executive office to the latter. This is the first time in Selucian history that regional parties are granted cabinet seats at the national level. Vote on the proposed cabinet chaired by Consuls Maria Cassia Aquilina and Decimus Calavius Cresces is ongoing, but observers expect it to be narrowly approved. The incoming government will face many challenges, not least of which is the loss of the near monopoly that the Popular Republican Movement enjoyed on Selucian politics during the previous five years.

Oleria is leftist again
Olympio Celer-Loukas recovers the regional government for COSIRA, which does not get any more happiness in these elections in which the MPR obtains a new mandate


Image
Praetor-elect of Oleria Olympio Celer-Loukas and his partner Favonia Aluredes after the election results

Few joys for COSIRA after this electoral night. Although Atia Bellator increases her voting percentage - going from 42.28 to 45.57 - this does not help her to take over the Consulship, which once again falls into the hands of the MPR. In the same way, the Censorship has been won again by the MPR, continuing the curse that persecutes COSIRA in relation to this political position. Nor have the islands of Sadaria or Aquilonia yielded good results for the left-wing party, which has seen its regional government candidates once again defeated. The only positive point of these elections has come from the island that generally brings more joy to the party: Oleria. There, Olympio Celer-Loukas, descendant of the Celer family and who made a failed attempt to become Censor of Selucia, has won by 54%, which returns the government of the island to Olerian Dawn after a legislature in which the MPR managed to reach the regional government. In this way, COSIRA once again has an important speaker for its policies, since after Ballio Thrasea's departure from politics and the loss of all representative positions for the party in the last elections, COSIRA was faced with the need to seek a powerful twist.

After the victory of Celer-Loukas was known, he rushed to appear before the media to announce the continuation of Ballio Thrasea's policies, in the ideology that is already known on the island as Thraserism, and that in practice, is a mixture between communism and democratic socialism, with slight overtones of social democracy.

Now, again and during the five years that this legislature lasts, the Olerian government will become the speaker and zone 0 of COSIRA's policies against the MPR government, and Mr. Celer-Loukas has not hesitated to make it clear. at his press conference.

"Oleria will become the containment dam against any attempt to apply conservative policies on our island. We are not going to allow our citizens to have their rights and freedoms curtailed by disguising it as an improvement, and I will personally see to it that this is the case during these next five years. "


The Praetor of Oleria, who has recovered Favonia Aluredes as his second, who already served as co-Praetor during Ballio Thrasea's last term, has announced that he will request to meet with the Co-Praetor of Sadaria belonging to the Communist Party, and he intends to form a common front between the two islands to face any policy that he has called "reactionary and conservative" that may come from the central government.

Despite the fact that the MPR has yet to see its government approved by the People's Assembly, it seems that curves are coming in the regional governments.

During his speech of thanks, Mr. Celer-Loukas has dedicated his victory to his ancestors, Aelius Celer and Argos Loukas, to say that he hopes to live up to what their surnames imply, and how much they have done for Selucia . With their victory at Oleria, the Celers once again move to the forefront of politics, after several centuries disappeared from the map.

The populist turn has Celer brand
A new member of the well-known political dinasty takes over the general secretary of the party, defeating Gavia Bellator and worrying about his populist ideas


Image
Bacchis Celer-Priscian has just won the primaries against Atia Gavia Bellator

In the absence of one, the Celer family returns to politics with two members. Following Olympio Celer-Loukas's victory in the elections to Praetor de Oleria, a new member of his family has stepped forward. He is Bacchis Celer-Priscian, a descendant of the former Rector of Selucia from 4491 to 4511 Panegyris Priscian.

Although his candidacy went unnoticed in the first moments of the primaries to the general secretary of COSIRA, it did not take long for the rumors about his surname to come out, which did not take long to be confirmed. And in this way, overnight, Bacchis Celer-Priscian became the worst nightmare for Atia Gavia Bellator and her intention to revalidate her position at the head of the party.

COSIRA's primaries, which are held every five years, allow militants to elect the party's Secretary General. Of the four general secretaries that the party has had, only two have ended up withdrawing of their own free will, winning primaries after primaries: Naevia Cosmas and Pyrgopolynices Auspex. Portia Marsyas, although she won their respective primaries, ended up being expelled from the party leadership by the Federal Committee, and in the primaries called urgently, the until now Secretary General Atia Gavia Bellator was victorious, with the support of the most progressive sector of the party. Gavia Bellator, on her part, already has three won primaries behind her back, and those that were going to be a mere process for her re-election have turned out to be her downfall.

With tense debates between the two candidates, which overshadowed the candidacies of the other two candidates, Gavia Bellator's team began to get nervous two weeks before the final vote of the militancy, when internal polls gave the then general secretary a victory by just a 2% difference, within the margin of error. Ultimately, the loss has been by a much wider margin, with Celer-Priscian getting 48% of the vote to 35% for Gavia Bellator.

Surprisingly, Oleria's Praetor and Celer-Priscian's distant relative, Olympio Celer-Loukas, declined to offer his support to Bacchis, officially declaring his support for Gavia Bellator's candidacy. However, the key to his victory has been in the results of the regional primaries in the other two islands, where the victory has gone to populist candidates, far removed from the official line of the party, who have declared their support for Celer-Priscian.

In this way, the victory of Celer-Priscian consummates the populist turn of COSIRA, a party that although it has defined itself by its variable ideology between the center-left and the extreme left, has never been headed by a populist candidate. Until now. With the victory of Bacchis Celer-Priscian, the sector that gains more strength within the party is the anarchist and the populist, far removed from the forces that have so far led the party. And this opens an uncertain front, since the federation that traditionally gets the most votes is that of Oleria, a federation that from now on will have a tense relationship with the central executive of the party and that, ironically, both federal directions will be headed by two relatives.

And now that? This is what some prominent members of the party are wondering. Gavia Bellator, who has already congratulated her rival, will surely return to the regional administration of Oleria. However, for the party at the national level now a sea of ​​unknowns opens. Asked why they have decided to vote for Celer-Priscian's candidacy, many COSIRA militants admit to having done so because they consider that the previous general secretaries have not done enough to improve the party, and some are even beginning to defend that it could have been committed electoral fraud by the MPR to ensure its control over the position of Censor and Consul.

Asked about it, Celer-Priscian has dedicated himself to deflecting the questions.

"Today is a happy day for me. Happy because thanks to the militants, I have reached the general secretariat of this party, and now is the time to carry out the necessary changes to ensure new electoral victories, despite the obstacles they may try. It is time for Selucia to rise from its ruins and return to being the full democracy that it once was, centuries ago. "

Celer-Priscian advances his first legislative proposals
COSIRA's new secretary general launches populist messages on his social networks related to his first laws to be presented at the People's Assembly and attacks the government


ImageImage
ImageImage
ImageImage
Messages posted by Celer-Priscian on social media

The newly elected general secretary of COSIRA, Bacchis Celer-Priscian, has taken advantage of his social networks to advance the proposals that his political formation will present to the People's Assembly as the first brushstrokes of his project at the head of the party. In several posts on his profile, Mr. Celer-Priscian has advanced that his first proposals will focus on health, military and nobility privileges, topics in which COSIRA has always excelled. However, what is particular about his program is that in this case, it does not follow the line that his predecessors have followed to a greater or lesser extent in office, but rather that it gives the populist turn that many were already expected and they feared.

In relation to health, he will lead the proposal to allow abortion throughout the gestation period, arguing that this is a particularly sensitive need for all those families that do not have the necessary means to support more children. Likewise, he has announced that if he comes to power, he intends to prohibit all private health systems and completely regulate health by the State to give "equal treatment" to all citizens. On the nobility, Mr. Celer-Priscian has been blunt, commenting that he intends its total prohibition and inviting all those who do not agree with that rule to "leave Selucia".

However, perhaps the most controversial point is the one concerning the army. In a context in which the Security Council - of which Selucia is currently a member - has presented a treaty called "International Agreement on Nuclear Non-Proliferation", which aims to regulate the existence of nuclear weapons, allowing only a few nations may possess these nuclear weapons, the Secretary General has lashed out at the Selucian government, calling it a "coward" for not defending the Selucian army. Although in the same comment he clarified that COSIRA is "totally in favor" of the denuclearization of Terra, he has affirmed that this does not happen by allowing a few "privileged" nations to possess the necessary power to subdue the others, when the case. The People's Assembly already once knocked down the approval of that Treaty by 431 to 319 by not reaching the necessary majority of 2/3, and it is expected that now the pressure will be greater with Celer-Priscian at the head of the party.

The political experts consulted agree that this is more a political strategy of the COSIRA secretary general than a true declaration of intent, but some fear that if we win the next elections, this will come true. They agree that, with these messages, he intends to encourage the populist base that raised him to the general secretary, but if he became the Selucian government head, he would have to convince a majority of the People's Assembly to vote in his favor. However, people close to him say that this is not a difficult job for Celer-Priscian, which they say has a way with words, and could make his proposals materialize.

Asked Celer-Loukas about the issue, who did not expect to see himself in the focus of media attention in this way, he has distanced himself from the proposals of his relative stating that he "is focused on governing Oleria", and that he is not interested in the national policy because Selucia "is not his territory."

Oleria raises controversy on the elimination of the police
Olympio Celer-Loukas proposes defunding the body and allocating it to two separate entities: the firefighting department and civil groups


Image
Olerian Minister of Defence Pisentia Laenas reviewing the troops of the region

After a new victory at the polls by more than 60% of the votes, Olympio Celer-Loukas has revealed the main lines of his star plan for this legislature: that of eliminating the police force and redirecting the activities carried out by them in different scopes.

Speaking to the media after confirming the victory of Celer-Loukas and the continuation of the current government of Oleria, the Minister of Defense of the island Pisentia Laenas has confirmed that the plan is going ahead, and that she hopes that the central government will not put any stick to it.

"This decision is an important step for many citizens of Oleria, who do not see the police forces as heroes or role models but rather as people supposedly in charge of ensuring the safety of all citizens but who, at the time of the truth, they are not capable of fulfilling their mission, leading part of the citizens, especially the most disadvantaged, to doubt the integrity of the police force and not to collaborate with them, aggravating existing social problems. "


Asked about the position that the central government - led by the MPR one more legislature after winning its candidates the general elections by 52% compared to 48% of COSIRA, Mrs. Laenas has affirmed that she sees no legal impediments in the future law , since current legislation "grants the regions dominion over the police forces of each of the islands."

According to the draft presented by Celer-Loukas himself and which will be voted on by the regional Assembly as soon as the final adjustments are made, the idea is to completely dissolve Oleria's police force and replace it with different civilian bodies. The Oleria firefighting department, which has the general approval of the island's citizens and ranks among the most approved institutions of Selucia, will continue to be in charge of carrying out rescues, emergency medical services and prevention and extinction of fires, but a specialized unit within the body will be trained to carry out the most dangerous rescues in case of emergencies or high-level natural disasters.

Security at the city level will be carried out by neighborhood units, chosen by neighborhoods, who will be in charge of patrolling the streets and each city council will train in personal defense and legislation.

Mental health services, on the other hand, will be made up of qualified personnel, specialized in different branches of mental health and who will be able to provide adequate help to each person and situation, replacing police forces that, on many occasions , they do not find the correct solution to deal with the problem.

Traffic services is another area that will be reformed, as it will be made up of experts in road traffic. Within this unit, there will be a group specifically trained for vehicle chases that will be equipped with non-lethal weapons.

The investigation services and forensic services will also be made up of professionals in this area, and all those members of the police who currently have their degrees will be kept in their jobs.

All of them will also receive courses on gender and racial equality, as a way of trying to tackle at the root what can be a problem when dealing with certain crimes.

The Olerian government believes that these reforms will increase citizens' confidence in the ways the region has to protect them, and that it will help alleviate the possible problems that may arise in Oleria. Likewise, Celer-Loukas is committed to the implementation of restorative justice as a good model to follow when applying sentences.

When citizens are asked about this possible reform, 59% say they "agree" or "strongly agree", while 41% say "no opinion", "disagree" or "strongly disagree" . Despite the divisive nature of the matter, Celer-Loukas has confirmed that the bill will be voted on in the regional Assembly, where it is expected to pass without major problems according to internal polls of the Quirites - elected members of the assembly.

From the Police Association of Oleria, one of the two in which the island's police force is grouped, they consider that this law "stigmatizes its members" and "puts the focus on those who enforce the law and not on those who break it. " Its spokesman, Argyrippus Metilius, has accused the island's government of being "complicit in the decline of the region," and has asked the Selucian government to intervene if the regional Assembly passes the law.

They have also accused the island's Minister of Defense of not looking out for the interests of the members of the police force, who will end up "on the streets" with no other resources to hold on to.

Speaking to the media to deny these claims, Mrs. Laenas has confirmed that her ministry is working on a plan to relocate all those police officers who lose their jobs, either by reincorporating to the new services after passing a psycho-technical test or Either by means of the payment by the region of some new studies of average degree or university.

Canalinsula is inaugurated
The underwater connection between the islands opens its doors with the presence of all the authorities of Selucia


Taken from viewtopic.php?f=17&t=1585&start=970#p167755

After years of engineering challenges and delays due to complications, the works started by the Gavia Bellator government and continued by successive MPR governments have finally concluded. With the presence of the competent government members and the Praetors of the three islands - Gavia Bellator has gone from Consul de Selucia to being one of the Praetors of the island of Sadaria - and in the eyes of thousands of curious and an international delegation, fascinated by the marvel of engineering that the tunnel has represented, the official inauguration of Canalinsula has taken place.

The work, which will allow underwater communication between the three islands that make up Selucia and which will allow more "economic and environmentally friendly" movements of people and vehicles, will come into operation from next week, and it is expected that become one of the busiest roads in the nation.

Speaking to the press, Gavia Bellator has thanked the MPR governments for having continued with a project that she has defined as "the revolution of the century" in Selucia, and has asked all citizens to be responsible with it. Some aspects remain to be clarified, such as who will carry out the merchandise controls and surveillance at the entrances and exits of the tunnels or the regulations to which they will be subjected, but Gavia Bellator agrees that these issues are "minutia".

"The most important part is that, finally, it will be possible to put into operation a necessary and useful infrastructure for all our citizens, which will improve communication between our regions and will be more respectful with the environment that surrounds us. There are no ideologies policies on this issue. We have all contributed to carry out the construction of something that will last for future generations, and that will serve as an example to others to improve the way of communicating between areas separated by bodies of water ".


The international delegation has been the first to use these tunnels, as they have been formally invited to do so by the regional authorities.

Olerian Praetor Olympio Celer-Loukas

Boosted by his electoral popularity after his re-election, the Praetor de Oleria Olympio Celer-Loukas has announced the next steps to take during his second term, following the bill to dissolve the Olerian police force and reform it completely.

Now, Mr. Celer-Loukas has announced that his intention is to open a series of embassies for the island in other nations as a form of help and representation for Olerian citizens residing abroad.

"The idea is that our nation is on an equal footing with others, through the formal opening of a series of embassies on foreign soil that allow our citizens to have legal coverage and diplomatic assistance wherever they are residing."


Faced with doubts about the legality of this, the Praetor has not answered questions.

Likewise, he has also announced the launch of the "Olerian Games", in which athletes from all over the three islands as well as foreign delegations will be able to participate. As he explained, this start-up is carried out "in view of the evident lack of religious neutrality of the government of Selucia in the nation's games, which undermine the freedoms of athletes." According to the above, these games will be exclusively sports competitions, so that they would correspond to a "secular" version of the Selucian National Games.
