Decree XXXI
Adammic Columbia and Other AffairsWe, the occupant of this Office, do hereby issue the following Decree, expanding upon the acquisition of the Empire of Nova Atlantis through the Treaty of Cleveland, and handling the outdated statuses of Our Princess Consort and the Empire's Patron Saint.
We hereby recognise the Treaty of Cleveland, signed by Our Imperial Majesty and Emperor Grant I of the Empire of Nova Atlantis, as being legitimate, and thus recognise the Empire of Nova Atlantis as being under Our sovereignty. We declare that the Empire of Nova Atlantis shall became a Territorial Claim of the Empire of Adammia under the terms of Our Imperial Decree XVII, and shall be renamed to Adammic Columbia, of which the full form shall be the Territory of Adammic Columbia. We declare that Adammic Columbia shall be under Our direct rule, with our authority exercised by the means of a governor in the territory, who shall also act as Our second-in-command there. This governor shall be Grant Hawkins, who shall hold in this regard the title of Lord Grant Hawkins, Governor of Adammic Columbia.
We hereby declare that Her Illustrious Highness Princess Consort Sydney, who was declared as such in Our Imperial Decree XXII, shall no longer be considered Our Princess Consort, and shall no longer hold those associated titles; the position of Prince/Princess Consort shall remain vacant until specified otherwise.
Noting the popularity of PC gaming within Adammic culture, we hereby declare that the Patron Saint of the Empire of Adammia shall no longer be Jebediah Kerman, but shall instead be Gabe “Gaben” Newell, director of the Valve Corporation.
This, the thirty-first Imperial Decree of Our Imperial Majesty Emperor Adam the First, is decreed at Primoria on the eleventh day of January, two-thousand and fifteenth year of the Common Era and the third year of Our reign, and is signed into immediate effect.
