***   CORVINIA  NEWSLETTER   ***   No. 6   ***     June 7, 1998     ***
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

DISCUSSION FORUM

A number of new initiatives have been implemented on the Corvinia pages 
lately. Among them is a new discussion forum, a "bulletin board", where 
citizens and other visitors can freely debate everything between Heaven 
and Earth.

As always, full freedom of speech prevails, so long as things are kept 
polite and mannerly, and so long as Rescript no. 3 is obeyed.

The new discussion forum may be found via Corvinias main page, or by going
directly to:

CORVINIAN CULTURE IN THE SPOTLIGHT

What is Corvinian culture? This is the focus of another new initiative. A 
grand survey is in progress, under the aegis of the ministries of culture 
and propaganda. If you haven't already done so, state your opinion at:

http://users.cybercity.dk/~bcc6937/survey1.html

In light of the initial responses, it seems clear that Corvinias citizens 
are very diverse, and yet very similar.

Further surveys are planned, in order to form a better picture of the 
national character.

REUNION 

As some of you may know, the relationship with Reunion has been very 
strained. A surprising development in the strife, however, was the recent 
decision by Reunion to offer Corvinia (and Falkenberg) a complete (and, 
under the circumstances, very humble) apology.

In view of this diplomatic victory, Corvinia has chosen graciously to resume
diplomatic relations with Reunion, albeit with a certain degree of caution. 
I do, however, have great confidence in Reunions current Chancellor, Micah 
Kubic, so it is to be hoped that the relationship is headed for lasting
improvement.

NEW CITIZENS

Since the last newsletter, we have naturalised three new subjects:

 - James Hager, of Sandy, Utah, U.S.A.
   Master James is a Bachelor of Russian Studies and Political
   from the University of Utah.

 - Leonard Loos Bartholdi, of  Madrid, Spain
   Master Leonard is of dutch origin, and a race car
   driver - in "Classic Car" races.

 - Erik White, of Lynnwood, Washington, U.S.A.
   Master Erik is a Bachelor of Anthropology.

Master James Hager has in the meantime been appointed Colonel in the 
Army, and given charge of the 8th Regiment of Foot ("Vinland"). Consular 
appointments for Master Leonard and Master Erik are being considered.

We welcome our new subjects.

Kindest regards,

Your Prince,

Peter I Ravn
