Have we decided on a population? And thinking about a name, where did we get "Elizia"? "Calaverde"? "Aurentina"? "Dagmar"?

Calaverde means green cove in spanish, Aurentina was picked since it sounded cool, not sure about the others

We'll extend time by 20 minutes due to the last minute flurry of resolutions. We're also going through and picking out the ones that don't need to be voted on.

Seeing as we don't have a GDP per capita, I'll introduce a resolution to set one.

Resolved: the GDP per capita of Fstan shall be $20,000.
