proposed flag of Hayland, desygned by Hayden Johnson
Today, I, Kyng Solomon Fyrst, am glad to announce that I offycially declare the newly demarcated area known as "Hayland" as a land claim of the Empyre of Slin. Thys claim in North Ameryca could likely one day become a department of Slin, synce it is prymaryly run under the leadershyp of the inspyryng Mr. Hayden Johnson, who was the Vyceroy of the impressyve and creatyve Hayland Department in the days of the Fyrst Empyre. I'm lookyng forward to what the Hayland claim may add to our nation's herytage.
Also, here is an interestyng update on the status of the elections for Kyng of the Empyre. Fyrst of all, due to the fact that none of the Justyce candydates satysfied the requirements of the posytion, the Empyre of Slin has neither a Trybunal nor an Assembly for the year 2013 (unless we vote to hold an early appointment of Justyces).
Secondly, the current tally of the votes for Kyng is as follows:
Emiel Hardy: 2 votes
Filippo Pradelli: 2 votes
Karl Friedrich: 2 votes
Solomon Fyrst: 2 votes
Austin Rowe: 1 vote
Gandalf D'jambay: 1 vote
Hayden Johnson: 1vote
Basycally, we have a four-way tie at the moment, a sytuation that isn't descrybed in the constytution. So I assume that I styll remain Kyng untyl a clear wynner is chosen. Only four cytyzens have actyve ballots at the moment, so if you are a Slin, I encourage you to send your choices for Kyng to my email address, that I may record them and that we might have a clear wynner, or at least bryng it down to a two-way tie. Please vote!
Welcome to the Empyre, Hayland!
