Latest Program Statement from the Government
Statement of 14 July 2023
THE CONSTITUION
Following national plebiscite, the Constitution of 7 June was adopted by the National Government and Head of State as the law of the realm. In recognition of the Temporary Provisions outlined in this esteemed document, execution of Title V Part II had begun in the organization of state subdivisions, though this discussion is not yet resolved, principally because of localist detractors. In recognition of special provisions of Art. 93 the National Government established a Ministry of Defence for the organization of local units.
A brief descriptor of the functions of the Montealban government has been recently made public by the Office of the President, which the State population can access here: https://www.nationstates.net/nation=dagoth_uur/detail=factbook/id=1891715
REGIONALISM: PERRENIAL FOE OF PROGRESS
Minister Nova Hrodsk of the Ministry of Caning has been hard at work in peacekeeping efforts in the former Spezi Autonomous Zone and Duristani Administrative District. Violence has dropped to record lows as the local population is convinced of the legitimacy of the central decision-making of the National Government, rumors of open conflict in the Duristan region are lies contrived by localists to demonize the necessary efforts of the State. All available means must and will be taken to ensure the stability of the periphery regions for the establishment of reformed subdivisions in the immediate future. The Ministry of Defence meanwhile has begun convincing the locals of the Pripjati historical region of submission to the legitimizing authority of the State. Stronger measures are yet to be taken as the National Government hopes the situation will resolve without the need for commitment of undue resources.
THE PRINCE ABROAD
The Prince Trigori, as of 12 July, has begun his first foreign tour, and will be acting as personal representative of the State while in the Empire of Kaiserreich. His departure was confirmed by the National Government in accordance with Pt. II Title II of the Political Constitution. In his absence certain roles of executive authority will fall on the Office of the President, through the Prince's court and Drabants will remain in close connection to the government that final authority may still rest in His person while abroad.
DOMESTIC AGRICULTURE, A BRIGHT FUTURE?
As of 16 June the Minister of Agriculture Cartorian Empire has embarked on a brazen quest to mandate the growing of corn across the nation in a replacement of the traditional grain products of the State's several breadbaskets. This has seen limited implementation so far around the Capital District and the more radical regions of the Pripjati historical region. While it is unlikely that local farming guilds are likely to let the reforms completely replace all starch products, the newfound addition of corn to the staple crops will certainly be seen nationwide as a bold step into an unknown and perhaps-bountiful agricultural future of the state. How successfully this agricultural revolution will yield the next Harvest Miracle the ministry desires is yet to be seen.
Due to local corporate efforts the agricultural recovery of formerly torn regions has been greatly successful without the immediate need for highest-level state intervention. Farms and food industries in the historic Mariagrad and Kogoruhn regions have seen particular success through their cooperation and harmonization with the recovery efforts of the State, unhindered a few minor setbacks of localized violence originating from the ever-shrinking slums. It is estimated the wheat harvest will be great this year and oranges may be once more on sale.
MONTEALBAN PLURICONTINENTALISM IN THE MAKING
Following the ascent of the New State, for the first time in the long history of Montealba a national navy has been organized. Admiralty Minister Meyle began in June the collection of the seaborne assets of former Montealban local units. A modest but capable fleet was assembled in Anise for review in late June for a new programme devised by the ministry to tour eastwards to establish a Montealban presence in the international world and open the country to trade possibilities across the Green Sea. Contact with the fleet has been limited since it departed in late June but what reports have been received indicate a promising foreign land. The Ministry of the Navy remains confident that the sea is essential to the future of Montealban success.
FIRES OF THE NATION: RESTARTING THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION
The sky of west of Krumpsko has on most nights glowed a faint red from proximity to the timeless Red Mountain, but since 7 July the city now sports a northern red glow: that of the newly opened Hviezda Autozávod Plant Krumpsko. Originally founded during the era of Nizhkian Occupation, HAZ grew to be the general automobile of all Montealbans. When factory production of cars all but stopped following the First Civil War of 1994 it was assumed the company had lost itself amidst the competition of foreign models. Today HAZ is once again resurgent, thanks to a nationalized re-founding in cooperation with the Montealban Second State. The first automobile design of the New State, the 2023 HAZ Predbiehač, has been approved for design and will soon start production at the newly-constructed HAZ Krumpsko plant. The Transportation Department estimates that every Montealban will be able to own their own car by as early as 2025.
