This month, we are pleased to have articles highlighting plenty of internal political controversies, along with some (hopefully) very interesting coverage of our region’s foreign affairs, as well as highlights of the happenings in our embassy regions!

Also, btw, since you had elections recently, did the diplomat you assigned to our region also change, as a consequence of the election results?

I have no idea

I don’t believe we have an ambassador’s program anymore, alas.

Hello there, hello, my island-loving friends!

First up, happy pride!

Today i bring you a double announcement from TRTHNBB.

As it’s June once again, and summertime has arrived, i can most happily announce that NBB’s Regional Olympics are back!

And all of TSP’s inhabitants are sincerely invited to join us for the 2025 Regional Summer Olympic Games!

The participation poll, linked here, will be up for 5 days as of posting. This will be the way for you to take part in these Olympics!

We would really like for you to take part!

Furthermore, as another quarter of the year has passed, and thusly NBB held it’s elections. This time, the vote on the PM was very close in the end, and the DPM-position was highly-contested, with 8 candidates for the office!
anyhows, onto the results:

TRTHNBB Election Concludes!

i’m excited to announce that NBB’s elections concluded yesterday!
Here are the results:

  • Gine Caruttiva was elected as Prime Minister.
  • Okona was elected Deputy Prime Minister.
  • Flomonga was re-elected Speaker of Parliament.

Okona will take over the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for this term, so please send any inquiries to Gine Caruttiva, Okona, or myself!

After the previously more GP-focused FA approach, this term will see a more balanced, and more of a culture-focused FA approach coming.

Diplomatic assignments are largely going to remain the same, with a few tweaks and shuffles here and there, but we’ll keep you updated!
We are very excited to keep working with you, and have a wonderful day!

With kind regards,

Venesia Grande,
NBB Diplomat to your regions
