Equatannia: Difference between revisions

President Roswuud was reelected for her third term in 2016 with 88% of the vote among citizens after running on the slogan, "It's Time!" This slogan pertained to her idea to finally reopen Equatannia to federal foreign affairs by 2020, which would be at the end of her term. In 2017, she finished constructing and employing the departments she had began planning seven years prior and deemed them ready for work. The Foreign Affairs Committee formally proposed The Federal Reveal Act (FERA) to both chambers of Congress on May 3, 2018, which then lead to over a year and a half of debate, filibuster, discussion, and planning among Representatives, Chancellors, and the Administration of President Roswuud. On November 20, 2019, Speaker Mitch Lorraine announced that he would be calling for a formal vote in a month's time as The Regional had reached an agreement to approve the resolution in July earlier that year. On the morning of December 21, 2019, Speaker Lorraine called for a formal vote on FERA. Representatives approved the resolution with 73% for the approval of the act, and President Melinde Roswuud signed FERA into law only three hours later from the Executive Office in Equaa. The following day, the federal government sent multiple phone calls and emails informing the international community of their return to foreign diplomacy. The state of Equatannia had finally reached true social, political, and economic stability for the first time since its founding.
