Osiris | Danburg Seized!

[SYG]

Without further ado, the Osiris Flag Contest 3.0 has officially begun!

I lied about the start time. NO RAGRETS.

EDIT: Please label the joke flag submissions to be flown by Syb appropriately.

For Immediate Release

Recently, the Osiris Fraternal Order celebrated Pharaoh's Day, a Holiday created by the Holiday’s Act. In the act, Pharaoh’s Day is described as “a day to celebrate the government of Osiris”. The celebration opened with remarks from Pharaoh Griffin where hs talked about how he watched from the outside as Pharaohs were being dedicated not to their own personal ideas, but instead they were dedicated to their sense as to what would be best of Osiris. He said, “[w]e must look back from the beginning to see how far we’ve come and we must celebrate the reigns of those who came before us”.

The festival continued with spam games. Later on the second day, the Pharaoh gave out the following awards:
Cormac Pendragon: Violet Jewel of Atum, the highest award the Pharaoh can give, awarded for longtime, outstanding overall contributions to the region
Koth: the Crown of Osiris, the second highest award a Pharaoh can give, awarded for outstanding contributions in service in regional leadership offices
Sygian and Adytus were both made barons in recognition of their work as Chief Viziers
Greyghost was made an Archduchess in recognition of her marriage to the Crown Prince

On the final day there was a movie played and the Chief Vizier, Sygian, gave some closing remarks. In them, he discussed how Osiris has seen a remarkable lack of corruption since last April. He also noted how despite his initial fear of NK he saw him be more than willing to give power back to the scribes and elected cabinet. He closed his address reminding us that Osiris is today more united than ever before and the age of backroom deals and corruption is over and he closed the festival by stating “Osiris is not divided anymore. We are all united under one flag, one government, that everyone plays a role in. Like a family, forever Fraternal.”

Tends to happen when you outlaw political opposition.

Thank you for acknowledging that the opposition was corrupt, as we maintained all along.

Congratulations to Osiris on a successful Pharaoh's Day celebration, and as I've already said on the Osiris forum, thank you for the honor.

Seems to have worked. Osiris is as peaceful as ever, without the people like you and your cronies manipulating elections and regional happenings any chance you can get.

Hail Osiris.

Hail Osiris.

It's been peaceful before, then there's eventually a coup for activities sake

Shush, this isn't Lazarus.

Osiris overtook Laz on the coup's a while ago We're the invaded sinker, you're the couped sinker.

Hail Osiris.

I challenge you to find the slightest scintilla of evidence regarding electoral manipulation and foreign subversion. It was your side who subverted the will of the people to manipulate the path of the region for themselves to leave everyone else in the dust.

I thought that after a year you would have realized and accepted it by now. What a shame.

This is Gameplay, long memories for petty squabbles. Everyone in here is guilty of it eventually.

I thought that after a year, the government wouldn't still be propagating the same lies it spewed at the start and acknowledge that all the bullshit was only means to an end. No one is being fooled when you pretend to believe it.

Oh my Lawd, man, just drop it. I'm not even there anymore and I'm the one who purged you. They didn't. I haven't started my own individual GP embassy for people to air their year(s)-old grievances with me yet, but airing them in Osiris' embassy by proxy is really silly. Give it a rest.

I don't like seeing bullshit peddled. Where it is flaunted, I will dispel. Simple as that.

Where bullshit is dispelled, you are known to flaunt. Don't get your words mixed up now.

Everyone, while I don't doubt this discussion could continue until the last light flickers off in NS...

Whatever's happened has happened. This is about Osiris here and now.

On Succession to the Throne

---

Osiris,

230 days ago I ascended the throne and became your Pharaoh. We stood together with our allies by our side and we were united. What made that day all the more remarkable was what was absent: incivility, rebellion, intrigue - coups. It didn’t matter if we were raider, defender, or independent. On that day we were all Osiran. Since the events of last April Osiris has become a community that is both stable and secure.

We have benefited immeasurably from the foundation our predecessors so tirelessly labored to build. I owe a debt of gratitude to His Royal Highness, the Archduke of Osiris Cormac Skollvaldr, without whom I would not be here today. He undoubtedly took a chance naming me his successor, and while we have disagreed, sometimes rather publicly, in the end we always come together for the good of our home and our people.

I have made mistakes during my reign, but they have been my mistakes, not Osiris’s. Our community is one of the most dedicated and resilient in NationStates and can weather any storm. The people are what hold our community together - not a crown, or a bureaucrat, or any titled official. No one nation is indispensable, even Pharaohs come and go.

Such is now the case. I’ve been in NationStates longer than I care to remember, indeed many consider me ancient or geriatric. I have seen countless regions and an alphabet soup of organizations rise and fall. I have seen and been a part of some incredible things, none more so than Osiris. I have also seen the next generation of nations come onto the scene. They have defied my expectations and pursue every task with a passion that I thought had passed long ago.

Therefore, I, Griffin Rahl-Monstresor, shall abdicate as Pharaoh of the Osiris Fraternal Order and World Assembly Delegate effective August 1st, 2017, in favor of His Royal Highness, Crown Prince Syberis Rahl-Monstresor.

Pharaoh of the Osiris Fraternal Order

[RiderSyl]

Hail!

*checks endorsement counts*

Does this mean Syberis will finally start tarting?

[Cormactopia Prime]

Congratulations to the Pharaoh on a stable, successful term.
