Drapeau hissé au-dessus du Kingsland

Le drapeau du Royaume de Northwood-Oregon a été hissé au-dessus du Kingsland aujourd'hui. Le drapeau était la première interprétation physique du drapeau qui a été conçu par le souverain Carson Snyder. Il a été acquis hier le 3 mars 2021 et a officiellement volé aujourd'hui pendant une courte période au-dessus du Kingsland. Après le tournage d'une courte vidéo dans laquelle Richard Snyder I, père du souverain Snyder, a levé le drapeau et quelques photos ont été prises, le drapeau a été abaissé pour être accroché dans le palais en raison des inquiétudes concernant un clip cassé sur le mât du drapeau. Le drapeau est le drapeau officiel du Royaume depuis sa conception. Il a été conçu par Sovereign Snyder, la silhouette représente la forme combinée de l'Oregon et de Northwood, Northwood étant en bas et Oregon en haut.

Flag Hoisted Above the Kingsland

The flag of the Kingdom of Northwood-Oregon was hoisted above the Kingsland today. The flag was the first physical rendition of the flag which was designed by Sovereign Carson Snyder. It was acquired yesterday on March 3rd 2021 and officially flown today for a short period of time above the Kingsland. After a short video was shot in which Richard Snyder I, father of Sovereign Snyder, raised the flag and a few photos were taken, the flag was lowered to be hung within the palace due to worries over a broken clip on the flag mast. The flag has been the official flag of the Kingdom since its conception. It was designed by Sovereign Snyder, the silhouette depicts the combined shape of Oregon and Northwood, Northwood being on the bottom and Oregon on the top.

French Made an Official Language of the Kingdom

The Northwood-Oregonian Parliament passed a bill today making French an official language of the Kingdom. Alongside making French an official language, the bill also includes provisions to encourage the availability of French translated public documents. The bill was voted on by the Royal Deluge this Monday, February 8th, and was sent to the Preclusionary Committee the same day. The bill was written by His Majesty The King and was seconded by Duke Nicholas Abbott of the Duchy of Clay.  The bill doesn't come as much as a surprise, as making French an official language has been a personal goal of the King for some time now. Many citizens of the Kingdom are currently in the process of learning French, or have already done so. The Kingdom also notably signed a treaty with the Kingdom of Sayville which included a French translation. While this on its own would be expected due to the Kingdom of Sayville writing the treaty and having French as an official language, the Kingdom of Northwoo...

King and Queen Sign Mutual Recognition Treaty with the Kingdom of Sayville

Their Majesties The King and Queen signed a mutual recognition treaty between the Kingdom of Northwood-Oregon and the Kingdom of Sayville (KOS) this evening, marking the former's first official foray into inter-micronational affairs. The treaty was ratified by the Royal Deluge and Preclusionary Committee prior to the King and Queen's signing, and Their Majesties were subsequently inducted into the Order of the Sayvillian Lion -- a dynastic order in the KOS established by King Charles of the Sayvillians -- to commemorate the occasion.

King Announces First Legislative Elections

His Majesty The King announced elections for the Preclusionary Committee on January 8 via Discord, marking the start of the election season in Northwood-Oregon. This comes after the ratification of the Canon Governing Document , Northwood-Oregon's equivalent of a constitution. The Canon Governing Document describes the Preclusionary Committee as the lower house of Northwood-Oregon's legislature, the Northwood-Oregonian Assembly. It comprises elected representatives of the citizenry and is jointly led by the Sovereigns, the co-monarchs of Northwood-Oregon. The Committee serves as a check on the Royal Deluge -- the Assembly's upper house comprising the leaders of KNO member states -- and has the ability to reject legislation previously passed by the latter.
