10/05/1472 From Royal Bliss to Royal Miss: A HRH Avanni Midterm Report





Kingdoms Associated Press - London, England



In the wake of England's typical royal transitions, with the ascension of Queen Avanni Palidor on the 27th day of January this year, it's time for a mid-term evaluation of her promises and accomplishments. Let's delve into the royal ledger to see how Her Majesty's reign measures up to her aspirations. Do you have your wine ready?

One notable change under Queen Avanni's rule is the addition of a wing in the Tower, exclusively reserved for Her Majesty's throne and meetings, an unprecedented move to England's historic landmark.

Is the kingdom basking in Royal triumph or drowning in Royal turmoil? Spoiler alert: it’s like trying to decide if the castle's moat is half full or half empty!


Her Campaign Promises


● National Governance

The promise of monthly state reports, while timely, appeared a tad tardy on the Kingdom's budget and finances front. Nevertheless, the suggestion box and honours platform stand ready for the populace, albeit with rare foot traffic.

● Leadership

A tapestry of meetings, both public and private, has been woven into the fabric of Queen Avanni's reign.

While security remains snug, the diplomatic dance with Scotland and Ireland might need a few more lessons. Alas, the border closure in Scotland makes it seem as if that diplomacy has failed.

The move, seemingly prompted by a historical incident dating back to 1471 involving a controversial military expedition into Scottish territory, has reignited age-old tensions.

The incident in question involved the unauthorized movement of troops from Westmorland into Scottish territory in pursuit of an alleged wrongdoer, a move not sanctioned by England. Since then, the delicate diplomatic balance between the two nations has remained unsettled, with successive monarchs failing to adequately address the situation.

Compounding the issue, recent reports indicate a comprehensive review of some of the Crown institutions - Royal Embassy, Royal Military Academy, and the College of Heraldry. While ostensibly aimed at ensuring alignment with the nation's long-term vision of integrity and efficiency, the review process has encountered numerous challenges.

These challenges include concerns over confidentiality and oversight, sparking a dispute between the Crown and the College of Heraldry. This disagreement has culminated in the Crown's decision to establish its own Royal Institute of Peerage. This unprecedented move sidelines the expertise and long-term service of dedicated volunteers within the College who have been around longer than this monarch has been alive.

The failure of diplomacy and the upheaval within key institutions cast a shadow over hopes for improved relations and underscored the complexities of historical grievances in contemporary diplomatic efforts.

● Military

A promise to restore trust and unveil a "new order" remains a mystery veiled in secrecy as all military matters should. As for the road patrols and escorts that seemed to have been promised.

● Finances:

Amidst the clinking of coffers and the promise of fiscal transparency, we find ourselves awaiting the grand unveiling as no report on how much is in the coffers has appeared, this reporter does note that when elected there were about 61500 pounds in bought votes. Prestige analysis, institutional wages, and fundraising discussions linger in the air, much like the aroma of freshly baked bread. They seem to have taken a stroll through the gardens.

● Community

In the realm of community engagement, a royal tour is underway, with promises of noble acquaintance and public involvement. While the path to noble rapport may still be winding, endeavours such as the English tournament stand as beacons of community spirit and shared celebration.





From Tower upgrades to a tapestry of meetings, England's latest royal journey is akin to a theatrical performance—promises made, mysteries veiled, and diplomacy dancing on a firepit.
