Glad to have you. ^_^
We really are close friends here. In Wintreath we take great pride in fostering friendship and trust because it's just the kinda region we are. Which means our conversations and debates can be quite robust to say the least.

This is excellent! I don't think I've ever seen a new ambassador introduce themselves so fully, and it was fun to read through too. I hope that you enjoy your assignment here in Wintreath, and that you become part of our close friendship.

The Republic of Europeia is pleased to announce that it is hosting it's second ever EuroPride festival!

In the midst of the current crisis, many in-person events, festivals, and celebrations have unfortunately been canceled. We still want to celebrate Pride in NationStates online however! We will be hosting a one week Pride celebration from June 8 to June 15. This will be an opportunity for both members of the NationStates LGBTQ+ community and allies alike to come together and share stories, meet other members of the community, and enjoy games and fun activities. We have a full schedule of events ranging from LGBTQ+ trivia and other games, art galleries for nations to display their past or present LGBTQ+ related arts, speeches and stories from members of the LGBTQ+ community, and much more!

This event will primarily be held on a Discord server for nations from all regions, and some will be hosted on our forums. If you would like to contribute by writing a story, article, or speech, please reach out to Councilor of Coordination Peeps at TheNationofthePeople#8776 on discord. We hope to see you involved in the festivities, and can't wait to see all the amazing contributions, stories, and experiences from the NationStates community!

I can see that one of you has two part time roles as a Demon and a fast food chain employee. The other peep hail from the dark and treacherous land, I'm guessing the embodiment of the Soul of Cinder ?

Europeia needs your help once again. We have too many bears in our region! We only see one remedy for this bear-splosion. One of the bears needs to change. The question you can answer: into what?

The current avatar of our Councilor of Coordination Peeps is shown below. Every one of you submits their avatars. The best from your region goes on to take on other regions in a head-to-head contest!

The winner is selected by your own ambassadors from Europeia on June 25th, with the head-to-head contest happening on June 26th selected by Foreign Affairs Councilor Kuramia. That will be the avatar for Peeps for an entire month.

Feel free to ask questions from your ambassadors for an edge in this game. Europeia is counting on you.

What a fascinating contest...I don't think I've ever seen it done cross-region before.

When you say everyone submits their avatars, do you mean the avatar they currently have on their profile, or can someone submit any image?

Ahoy there King Wintermoot,

Sorry for the late reply but any images will do. Images that you think could replace the big fuzzy brown bear

I enter!!!

I mean, there's really only one bear to replace that.

Oh, that's just genius. I couldn't have done better if I'd spent hours trying (and I have spent hours trying to find the right avatar before).

Haha, you know some of my ideas sometimes.  Just throw me a topic and I can get some fun ideas. 

Presidential Election Standing Opens in Europeia
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Contact Information (Discord): Deepest House#4275

(Europeia, July 16, 2020) - Europeian Vice Chancellor Deepest House opened standing for the July 24 presidential election on Wednesday, July 15. This election marks Europeia's return to a unified executive branch under a president and vice president after a period during which the executive branch consisted of independent chief of state and first minister offices.

"We are taking the first step towards a new era in the region, which will be initiated with the election of our president and vice president," Vice Chancellor Deepest House said in opening the election. "This new journey we are embarking on is reminiscent of the past, as we are returning to the unified executive structure we had before the executive split reform movement. But this is a day to look forward, not to history."

Over the past several weeks, public anticipation for this election steadily grew, with the expectation that multiple tickets headlined by political heavyweights would stand for election.

At time of press, four tickets had declared themselves for the election. Lloenflys declared his candidacy for president first, selecting Pichtonia to serve as his running mate. Mr. Verteger was next to declare, while selecting Ervald as his running mate. First Minister McEntire followed up, declaring his candidacy for president alongside his running mate, current Chief of State Malashaan. Finally, Sopo stood for election and chose Monkey as his running mate.

The presidential campaign has begun in earnest in Europeia, with campaign platforms posted and citizens engaging the candidates. Veteran Europeian political operator Aexnidaral captured the region's spirit as he attended the opening of the election at the Office of the Supreme Chancellor's Palatium Manor.

"A very exciting time, love that we have so many tickets running already," Aexnidaral said. "Here's to hoping the next President and their team are active and engaged!"

Under the previous form of government, the first minister managed domestic affairs, while the chief of state handled foreign affairs. Under the new executive branch, the president will have oversight over the entire executive branch.
