Theme changes in Lazarus
By New Rogernomics

Lazarus has recently decided to adopt a new theme that is Greek styled, which means we have to break out the baklava and Ouzo to celebrate, though to some naturally that were not fans of our last theme, they might be celebrating more than most. Most of our offices of government have been renamed, the leader of our government is now the First Citizen. As for our Delegate, it is now the Hegemon. Whereas as Vice Delegate my title is now Herald, which kind of fits for me this month as I've been going places especially with my appointment as Deputy Minister, sorry Proedroi of Foreign Affairs. As you can tell, we are still getting used to this all, and it's all Greek to me at times. Our Assembly is now called the Ekklesia, with the rest of the themed titles referred to above. Lazarus might also be considering a new flag, but that's hush hush for now...news about that perhaps in the next update.

Treaty signings this month
By New Rogernomics

Balder and Lazarus are near the passage of the Treaty of Alfheim, an agreement between our two sinker regions advance the mutual interests and security of our sovereign regions. This treaty if passed marks the improvement of relations between Balder and Lazarus, and of a strong and lasting friendship between our two regions likely well into the future. This treaty has been passed in Lazarus, and awaits final approval in Balder, though if approved we can hope for promising future contacts and cultural exchanges between our two regions.

Activity improvements in Lazarus
By New Rogernomics

Lazarus for a while has been given the appearance of a sleepy sinker, both rightly and wrongly, as Lazarus has had a lot of twists in turns in rebuilding its identity post-civil war. So far the improvements have been mostly on our discord server, which features a new bot with a lot more features to compliment the ever loyal Penelope bot for which we have August to thank. It has a lot easier to understand flow and now features emotions, Pokemon, and music channels. Whereas on our forum efforts are underway to get it ready for a festival event sometime in the near future, with play-by-post RPs, Werewolf and other such things in store. Hopefully by the next regional update there will be more to share about this, and a festival announcement!

Flag changes in Lazarus

Lazarus has recently decided to adopt a new flag related to the Greek styled theme that was recently adopted. The regional flag competition came down to two entries by McChimp and New Rogernomics, with the entries by McChimp winning over the straw poll voters.

First Citizen (PM) Ellenburg ends their term
By New Rogernomics

It has been an interesting term for First Citizen (PM) Ellenburg, with the change to the regional theme, the end of relations with Osiris over irrevocable differences, as well as the passage of new regional treaties with Balder and The East Pacific.

Elections to be held in Lazarus
By New Rogernomics

Elections begin on the 16th of October to select a First Citizen (PM) of Lazarus. So far the current First Citizen, Ellenburg may be willing to run again, though other candidates may present themselves as the nominating period begins. Good luck to any prospective candidates for the position, as whoever wins will have a lot of work on their hands.

Constitutional changes in Lazarus
By New Rogernomics

There were two amendments to the mandate recently, the Prime Minister Powers and Responsibilities Amendment and Government Officials Activity Requirement Amendment. The first amendment clarified the powers of the First Citizen (PM) over their cabinet, while the second instituted an activity requirement for government officials so that inactive government officials could be removed from office by the Epistates of the Ekklesia (Assembly Speaker).
