News Report: Independence Day celebrated in Thalasus

As the patriotic holiday weekend enters its second day, the date that marks the signing of the Thalasi constitution and the official independence of the Thalasi nation arrives. Historical reenactments, political rallies and speeches (notably and controversially speeches from democratic freedom fighters from various non-democratic states), and various parties and games are occurring throughout the day and night.

In unrelated news, His Excellency, Thane Aceus Elurin has come of age, and is currently looking to study abroad to cement Danceria's relations in the international community. Some traditionalist nobles protest that the Thane ought to "rule his own house before he bursts into another", fortune has allowed that Aceus' grandfather remain the current King of Danceria. Succession laws allow for Aceus (as his grandfather has declared in his will) to ascend to the throne upon "death or deposition". We now bring you the weather report...

Upon news of Aceus' ambitions to study abroad, many large Thalasi universities began to inundate Danceria with requests for the prince. As having a foreign dignitary in attendence would be greatly prestigious for any university in a free nation, Aceus was hotly contested over. The Thalasi government eagerly awaited a response as well, hoping to impart some democratic values on the young prince.
