16th Foundation Anniversary

With the LKE turning sixteen years old, there have been major changes to the Region. It moved on to its fourth Forums and the Regional Administration experienced those too. In his Anniversary Speech, Emperor Theoden announced important changes to the Imperial House and that he intends to push for institutional reforms to adjust to the changes that have occurred in Nationstates in general. Additionally, it is his goal to increase cooperation with other regions.

In regards to the changes to the Imperial House, Prince Akillian Talleyrand has decided to retire from his position in the regional administration. He's filled important political roles, including two terms as Prime Minister and serving as Lord-Chancellor, in the LKE since he joined in March 2013 and also has a prestigous record as a soldier in the Imperial Army. He was restored in his title as Duke of Morrington. He also was appointed as member of the Guardian Council.
With his retirement, the Emperor saw the need for another long-serving member of the region to step up to such an crucial duty. Rayregalia Von Arcadia-Sova was, therefore, appointed new Archduke of The Land of Dragonia and Prince of the Imperial House. Prince Rayregalia has strived to improve the region since he joined November 2018. Serving four terms as Prime Minister of the LKE and being the only individual to have been trusted with administering two Colonies of the LKE are only some of his accomplishments. He also has an record in the Imperial Army. Most notably, he took down a rebellion in the Colony of Moldavia.

Another outstanding individual has been acknowledged as well. The current Prime Minister Zecheriah Stevenson von Arcadia-Sova has been created as Baron of Farava for his commitment to regional security and loyalty to the region. In addition, he was appointed to the Guardian Council.
Valfor Talleyrand, the most honourable Duke of Crownchester, has been appointed as the new Vice-Moderator of the Guardian Council.

Lastly, three other individuals have been given honours. Raeliana von Clair-Rouvier has been awarded the Order of State for her long-lasting service as Speaker of the Estates Common. Charles vi Avalonia has been awarded the Order of Achievment for services to regional culture. The last honour was given the Bolden, the Countess of Atnas. She served as World Assembly Delegate, Prime Minister and Lord Chancellor. Additionally, she contributed greatly to the regions security during her service as Deputy Director of the LKE Intelligence Service in 2006-2008. She has, therefore, been rightfully granted the Most Excellent Order of the Realm.
