New Coat of Arms, Changing the State Flag

The Emperor today met with Chancellor Scott for the first time since Helveticana's return from inactivity, and together they ratified a new imperial decree that established an official coat of arms for the Empire and changed the state flag. The new coat of arms is based off that of the now-defunct German Democratic Republic.


The new coat of arms

The new state flag is the national flag with the coat of arms in the center.

This is the first major change since Helveticana's reactivation one week ago. The Emperor hopes that this is the first of many changes to revitalize the Empire.

Helveticana Returns!

After almost nine months of inactivity, the Emperor declared today that the Soviet Socialist Empire of Helveticana was to be revived. In January of this year, the Emperor's project of managing a micronation became overshadowed, and for most of this year almost nothing happened within the Empire.
"I'm very sorry that I let Helveticana lose so much activity." Said Emperor Adovich Daviovsky. "The Empire was just starting to reach out into the micronational community, and I could see that it had potential. I hope that these months of being away don't hurt our chances too much. I will do what I can to restore what we had and gain the friendship of the micronational community."
Helveticana may need some time to work out matters of internal affairs and revise the structure of the nation. One item on the Emperor's agenda is to create a stronger culture and sense of national identity. Then the Empire will attempt to gain a standing within the MicroWiki community.
