Update is ready.
[b]The News from Hyrule
June 16, 2006

Nations: 405
Delegate (endos): Ness Snorlaxia (110)[/b]
[b]Region[/b]
-The region itself has remained fairly stable at around 405 nations.
-Unfortunately, the forums have not been as active as in previous weeks. The departure of two of our most active members may not have helped this.
[b]Fourms[/b]
-The regional chatterbox remains quite popular, with people posting roughly every day.
-The interactive fun dodecahedron, however, has not been posted in much recently. You're welcome to come by and post in it, it is the most interactive and most fun dodecahedron in all of NationStates! :P
[b]Roleplaying[/b]
-The HTO had elections for the Secretary General and Vice Secretary General. Flamaca defeated Robengrad, 4 votes to 2, to take the SG position. Porcu defeated Atlantico Norte, 5 votes to 1, to take the VSG position
-Mongolian Warriors has experienced an uprising and the HTO has sent its peacekeeping forces to assist the legitimate government. The Supreme Commander of the HTO forces is Prince Phillip of Flamaca and the main generals are Field Marshal Erwin Rommel of Porcu and General Orpha of Arcaia.
-Robengrad has started the Hyrulian International Football Association(HIFA), a regional football (soccer) league. The teams included come from Robengrad, Arcaia, Porcu (Roma Senatori), Atlantico Norte (Atlantic Red Wolves), Wrathful People (WP Flames), Flamaca (Flamaca Fireballs), Macarronesia (Macarronesia White Tigers), Honshuwa (Honsuwan Tigers), Sirrusa Newton Vales (Governor's Eleven), and Old El Paso (The Llaminators). Score table:

-Robengrad's Emperor Hess recently promised his people that he would not involve Robengrad in another major war. But the conflict in Mongolian Warriors was impossible to side-step so he publicly apologized. At the same time, Honshuwa moved some of its people back to Earth and Hyrule, but Emperor Kai-Shek is recieving Robengradan and Flamacan officials on their planet.
-Because Honshuwa is situated on another planet, Emperor Kai-Shek has created the Systems Confederation of Honshuwa. In essence, Honshuwa is now an empire, but the various planets under his control are represented in the Senate. (This is exactly like STAR WARS if you hadn't picked it up).
-Sirrusa Newton Vales has recently been unified after a horrible and brutal civil war that devistated the country and the people. In short, nuclear weapons were used by both sides and often. Il Duce has dispatched medical teams and peackeepers to try and help the contaminated people and landscape. Progress is being made...
-The HTO has redrawn its flag. The new flag can be viewed [url=http://img190.imageshack.us/img190/1876/htoflag8jd.png]here[/url].
[b]Government[/b]
-Regional cabinet elections have begun! Arcaia, Robengrad, Atlantico Norte, Hilayia, Porcu, Gnid, Kritschboilek, and South Malaysia are running for the posistions of Chancellor, Chancellor of Justice, Minister of Internal Affairs, Minister of Roleplaying, and the two Judges.
-Discussions on revising the regional constitution have almost finished. A near final draft has been completed, which basically needs some fine-tuning and some input from other people.
-Hyrule has voted FOR opening an embassy with Great Britain and Ireland, and abstained on opening an embassy with Great Land of the Moon.

[b]Quotes[/b]

[quote]What's a nintendo?
It's Yuguslavian slang for "didn't intend to". The phrase was launched after all-famous Serbian television host Xelta Gemekoeb in the first airing of his new "Xelta Show" in a jest said that a machine with the brain of Hitler and the dress of Marlyn Monroe was creating a Croatian Invasion army. The Serbs, pre-emptive, striked. After the war, the only comment of mister Gemekoeb was "Nintendo."[/quote]

[quote]Hey, I eat stucco. It's good for you!
I dislike ham, however. Probably just because I'm not used to it.[/quote]

[quote][In response to "Do you guys even know what a Nintendo is?"] Of course we do! It's a variety of burrito found in certain parts of western Mexico. I make Nintendos Burritos at home all the time. An ice cold cerveza makes a fine accompaniment as well.[/quote]
