The Empire Expands with the Passage of the Latest Imperial Decree

Yesterday, Imperial Decree IX was passed, expanding the territorial claim of the Empire. The Decree established three new land claims. The first was the expansion of the Province of Navallia to include most of the peninsula into the lake that it and Adamsburg lie next to.

The second land claim was of a single bedroom, which has become the Province of Amoria. The third claimed a portion of land stretching outwards 100 meters from the road that Amoria is on, and is titled as the Hickory Territory.

In other news, yesterday, 18 January, marked one year since the founding of the Republic of Alamantia, which was the Emperor's first attempt at creating a micronation. Alamantia was co-founded by the now-Emperor and his friend Joseph Islam. While the micronation enjoyed some time of prosperity, and even reached above 30 registered citizens, Alamantia is now currently inactive.

Helveticana Reforms with the Adoption of New Constitution

Today, the former State of Helveticana reformed itself into an empire when its president ratified a new constitution. The new constitution, which is fifteen pages long (including the title page) and consisting of more than 3800 words reestablished Helveticana as an empire with socialist values and crowned the previous president, Adam Judge, as the first Emperor.
The main reasoning for this change was that the previous constitution was badly written and established a shaky government. The new constitution was written with hopes of making Helveticana a larger micronational power and a generally greater nation for its people.
You can read the new constitution for yourself here. The Emperor states that he will spend the first few days to few weeks of his reign working on laws to solidify the internal affairs of the Empire, such as working out provincial borders, appointing government members, and finding new citizens, but after that he plans on attempting to enter the micronational community by trying to establish foreign relations. The Emperor also stated that while for the time being, he will go by "Emperor Adam I," he plans on trying to come up with an alias for himself, as so that there will not be confusion between him and Emperor Adam I of Adammia.
Helveticana and its people hope to make 2015 a wonderful year of achievement.
