January-February Foreign Updates
General Elections Update
With the new year, concludes the General Elections of January 2020! We are proud to present to you readers the preliminary results of the election, whereby the next President, the Speaker, and the WA Delegate are voted in! All citizens of the Free Nations Region, who have been in FNR for at least 2 weeks before the election starts, were eligible to vote, and as of 20.01.2020 22:00 UTC, we have 26 voters out of the 92 participating, a 28.26% turnout!
Unfortunately, out of these 26 votes, there were rule violations that voided 7 to 9 votes from each of the categories. Citizens are reminded once again to ensure that they do not double-submit their votes, and that they must submit a validation code that was sent to them before the election starts.
We will now get to the election results itself, starting off with the Presidental Election. Running for Presidency were
Givera, running under The Free Nations Region (FNR) Patriotic Movement; and Greater Cadia, running under The Centrist-Conservative Party (CCP). Out of the 17 valid votes for Presidential Election, 9 of them went to Givera, while 5 of them went to Greater Cadia, with 3 Abstains. Givera appointed
Narvatus as his Vice President.
As for Speaker Election, out of the 19 valid votes,
My Nation obtained 12 votes, while Narvatus obtained 5 votes, and 2 Abstains.
Last but not least, for the WA Delegate Election, out of the 19 valid votes,
OF Arian Hellas obtained 12 votes, while
Siokania obtained 5 votes, with again 2 Abstains.

Givera Removed as the President
Givera was removed from the post of President after he stayed inactive for more than 14 days without any prior notice. Any Government Officials who stays inactive for more than 14 days without any prior notice gets removed from his/her position according to the FNR Constitution. Apart from being inactive Givera was also banned from World Assembly for rule violations at the exact same time when he went inactive. Some allege that Givera had two WA Nations at the same time with the other being
Do List which was ejected from WA at the same time as Givera. Greater Cadia and Gartias has filed a case against Givera for the misuse of puppets after Greater Cadia received some suspicious telegrams from Do List. Further information regarding this case will be posted and the matter is being investigated by the Judiciary. A special election is being held to fill the vacant position of The President with
Crystalsummer, Narvatus and Greater Cadia declaring their candidacy and Narvatus is currently acting as the President.

FNRAF renamed to FNDA
The Free Nations Region Armed Forces formed in 2016 is changing its name to The Free Nations Defense Association. The new name reflects the spirit of our regional military after a year long inactivity. The name is also being changed to avoid confusion with a similarly named raider military. I would like to end my statement with some recent operations in which FNDA Personnels have took part in.

Regional Events are here!
Regional Events have started in The Free Nations Region to encourage activity within the community and for people to have fun while getting to know each other. We have started playing online games like Atwar, Cards Against Humanity, Skribbl to name a few in our discord server. The games were successful and generated a lot of activity. We are also planning to conduct Movie Shows in our region. Currently all the events are being done as an experiment. We are planning to expand these regional events to interregional level in the future and lots of other Roleplay Events and Regional Events are currently being planned.
