Morovia: TYSOG Remembered
Briesk- General Foong has drawn first blood on Victoria University's Encyclopedia Morovia with his narrative on the TYSOG saga in Morovian history (early 2002).
The General, a witness to the events and well-connected with several of the principals, has written his dispassionate remembrance of a time when His Majesty King Vincent III was away and Morovia, for a time, became every micronationalist's play toy.
The events of TYSOG have received renewed interest from scholars with the alleged return of Yarl Berg and the 'revival' of the Republic of Morovia (presuming three posts from one paper doll and one non-paper doll constitute a revival :-).
The Encylopedia is part of HM Ministry of Home Affair's Victoria Universiity Revitalization Project, a project already on hard times due to the absence of Lord Chancellor David Oatney, HM Minister of the Interior Bill Bekkenhuis' continuing difficulty (downloading a Java plug allowing him to edit seedwiki pages) and the general business of Morovia's citizens as they work on other projects.
Still, Minister Bekkenhuis fully expects both the University and the Encyclopedia to grow and welcomes submissions to the Encylopedia at bekkenhuis@fast.net (put "encyclopedia" in the subject heading).
