rep2k 3192 Share Posted March 2, 2023 THE FIRST EDITION OF THE AAUNIC NEWSPAPER Published by the Office of the Magistrate Press Redaction, In the Year of our Lord, 1914 PREAMBLE A word from the Press Redaction As an institution that exclusively deals with analyzing the environment and the geopolitical situation of the Kingdom of Aaun and other countries, there is also a need further to inform the libertarian people about the happenings around them. Of course, it is not for anything other than the duty that the Office of the Magistrate has towards the citizens of this kingdom. Our office desires to continue to inform about the happenings in and around the kingdom, whether it concerns financial, social, or political issues, everything will be covered and transparently reported. LEX AAUNICA, A LAW TO RULE US ALL Johannian Hall, 1913 Within the Johannian Hall in the capital city of New Vienne, just before the official start of the Royal Diet, the Crown Peer delegates of the Kingdom of Aaun gathered to vote on the first official version of the Code - Lex Aaunica, in the Year of our Lord, 1913. Just as in every session concerning important topics, the delegates clarified and proposed amendments to finally promulgate the first version of the Code. It should be emphasized that amendments to the law are normal and will be made when there is a need and that this is not the final version of the Code. A final agreement was reached for its promulgation, although two delegates abstained, the majority said their opinion, and this was reflected in the confirmation and promulgation of the Lex Aaunica. Attached below is the transcript of the Royal Diet, with a summary of the matters from the 1913 agenda. ARENTANIAN DISTRESS Tragic news recently got to our Office, which took us over to the steep and harsh Alps of Arentania. The Margraviate of Haute-Epine was affected by the terrible earthquakes that hit the region of the Arentanian Alps, in the Year of our Lord, 1913. The damage that was done is still visible today, which indicates the possibility of similar earthquakes occurring again, according to the architects from the aforementioned region. Artist's depiction of the Arentanian earthquake, 1913 What remained of the earthquakes that hit the entire region of Haute-Epine, was cleaned and removed within a matter of days to allow for further, fresh construction. Broken windows, demolished fortresses, cracked palisades and scattered vegetation of various sorts were just a summary of what happened a few months ago. The architects in charge of the reconstruction have established countermeasures, however, they certainly consider the land for advanced viticulture and agriculture, which was formed by the impact of earthquakes of smaller radius, but of large magnitude, to be the only benefit of the earthquakes. Architects warn of the possibility of new earthquakes, and that the vassals in the area of the Arentanian Alps should check the condition of their foundations, as well as walls and any columns that are of key importance. Fortunately, there were neither injured nor killed, but with God's help, we hope that this will occur never again to anyone. NEW YEAR, OLD GLORY [!] Coat of arms of the Principality of Sedan As the already-known influx of new citizens becomes noticeable, old families of great fame are also arriving in the Kingdom of Aaun, which must be a great honor and encouragement for the citizens of this kingdom. One of them is the de Joannes family, known for many things, primarily for the Principality of Sedan, which has gone through a lot of hardships over the years and decades. After the exodus from the once Holy Orenian Empire, it seemed that the brave faces of Sedan would not withstand the geopolitical state of the world. However, today they stand firmly to present quite a different story, after His Majesty, King Charles I through a unanimous vote in Royal Diet recognized and approved the nobility of Robert Therosius Alexander, restoring him and de Joannes to their old glory as the only rightful heirs to Sedan. HENRY’S COME TO SEE US! The rapidly growing social and cultural treasure of the Kingdom of Aaun is more noticeable every day, and it also seems to find its place within the Royal Household. By this, of course, is meant the great influence created and left by the vassals, and as they set out, it seems that His Royal Highness will express his respect for the work that has been accomplished during all these years by his presence. More precisely, the news came from the Royal Family that Prince Henry will visit each vassal family individually! Royal delegation departing from New Vienne, 1914 Let's not let this fast-passing time deceive us, His Royal Highness has already largely found his accommodation in the Principality of Merryweather, where the main host is His Highness Ottomar II of the Princely House of Alstreim. Our redaction did not have the opportunity to see the current atmosphere among the Arentanian Alps, however, we do hear regularly that the presence of Prince Henry has been long-awaited, with great joy, and besides the Alstreim family, His Royal Highness also had the opportunity to feel the hospitality of the Jazloviecki family, where The Right Honourable Jan Jazloviecki had an honor of welcoming the prince within the County of Warsovia. Arentanian Alps, circa 1902 If the schedule of subsequent trips is to be right, His Royal Highness plans to visit the County of Hohengarten in 1915, then right after in 1916, he shall stay within the Margraviate of Haute-Epine, the Margraviate of Velen accompanied by noble houses of Alsace and Arentania in 1917… DUKE’S CEMENTED BONDS Having one friend is desirable, but having two strong friends is even better! According to the recently declared and signed partnership of The King's Road, the Duchies of Minitz and Adria have formed an alliance that not only makes them more numerous but also stronger than before. Let's note that these two vassals run effective campaigns that have provided them with numerous satisfied citizens, and the citizens cordial places to live and diverse professions over the years since the existence of the Kingdom of Aaun. Our redaction does not doubt that these two will seek more to achieve over the following years to come, and aid the kingdom as they know it. For a more detailed description and purpose of this partnership, a copy of The King's Road Partnership is attached. THE KING'S ROAD PARTNERSHIP Journal D’Aaun, as the direct subordinate of the Office of the Magistrate, is pledged to avoid conflicts of interest or the appearance of a conflict of interest wherever and whenever possible. We avoid active involvement in any causes which may turn malicious - politics, community affairs, social action, demonstrations - that could compromise or seem to compromise our ability to report and edit fairly.
