National Destiny Referendum to be on 10th December!


Citizens of the Talossan Republic will be presented with the question: "Do you agree that a General Assembly of all Talossan citizens should take over all the powers of the Republic from the currently elected officials; and have the power to suspend or rewrite the Constitution and Laws of the Republic?" next Saturday, in the second such national destiny referendum ever to be held in the republic.

The referendum comes days after the President sent a letter to King John of the Kingdom modestly proposing the idea, and receiving a positive response (which can be seen here) detailing how he welcomed the idea with open arms. The news has caused a frenzy of activity on the usually quiet Wittenberg as citizens were delighted by the notion of acceptance. The topic of conversation quickly turned to flags, titles and national holidays as citizens really grasp the reality of a re-united Talossa after 7 long years of seperation.

It is widely believed that if the citizens of the Republic were to join the Kingdom, the terms and conditions of our entry would strictly state that every single citizen must be accepted and not discriminated towards, while the mass exodus takes place ‘en bloc’. Should the Kingdom reject any citizen for any reason, the whole process would come to a stop.

In order for the referendum to pass, at least 8 citizens must vote ‘Yes’ and less than 8 citizens must vote ‘No’. If the referendum were to pass, a General Assembly of all citizens will be summoned to discuss the future of the Talossan republic.

The recently elected Defencist (PVZT) majority government has heavily endorsed the referendum and the Seneschal and the Pruma Citaxhien have given their full support for a yes vote.
