Lindstrom City, Natopia - Sylvan Springs Imperial Park has been chosen to appear on Natopia's first series of postcards. The postcards, which have been sent to participants in Hanover's postcard event, feature a detail of the Park. Sylvan Springs is the first site to be added to the Imperial Park Service. In fact, the Park Service was created for the sole purpose of protecting this site of Natopian heritage and American history. The Park was a project in the Works Progress Administration of President FDR. The Park also was frequented by the Grand Chancellor in his early years.

Lavisitya, Lavalon - The Supreme Court has been expanded by two as per the recent modification by the General Assembly. Justices Carson Smith and Zachary F. join Chief Justice Nathan Shepard on the bench. As stated by several Lavalonians, this is a greater step toward democracy and Lavalonian ideals. Previously, the Chief Justice was the sole administrator of justice in the Republic but with the new Justices, justice will be administered more democratically.

Lavisitya, Lavalon - A new party is in town, the Liberal Democratic Party. It seems the first, and so far primary, goal of the LDP is to remove government sanctioned elements of simulations within Lavalon. The first action of the LDP was to sponsor a bill in the General Assembly calling for Lavalon's withdrawal from the MCS map. The only supporter of the bill, other than the LDP's founder the Hon. Carson Smith, was Undersecretary Vasroixe. "Lavalon is not a game," was his explanation of his vote. Chancellor Henzelli gave a moving speech on the floor saying the MCS claim gave Lavalon a location to say "that's Lavalon." The bill has been defeated, however, 2-4.
