Imperial Decree #090302A ORDER OF MARSHAL LAW On May 11, Duke Zarev made a post concerning a vote of no confidence in the present government. That post received many responses but, unfortunately, the activity and participation failed to endure for any real length of time. There have been several posts concerning the lethargy of citizens and government officials alike. Days have gone by before anyone other than me has even bothered to log into the forum much less post anything. Voting in Parliament is at a snails pace with no interest in debate or discussion. Duke Zarev said that he does not wish to see our micronation die. I agree fully! On May 20th I directed Prime Minister von Braun to PM all ministers directing them to submit weekly reports to him. Today is June 7 and to date not even one minister has submitted a weekly report to the Prime Minister as they were directed to! Recently, a member of Parliament, Mr. Krychek, posted that Thrace was dead. I do not agree with him and neither did some other members and one even posted they will "prove" it is not dead. Yet, the lethargy and almost complete disinterest continues and even worsens! It is now more than apparent that our micronation is in a State of Emergency due to the FAILURE of government ministers to follow directives and to take responsibility for their duties in a timely manner. The government and our beloved micronation can no longer and WILL no longer operate like this. THEREFORE, as sovereign Emperor of Thrace I hereby declare that a State of Emergency and National Security now exists which has endangered our micronation and which threatens the continued existence of our micronation.THEREFORE, it is so COMMANDED that the ENTIRE GOVERNMENT OF THRACE IS HEREWITH DISMISSED and that a STATE OF MARSHAL LAW now exists throughout the Empire of Thrace! ALL government ministers are herewith DISMISSED effective immediately EXCEPT for the Minister of Information who is also our webmaster, Count Stefan. Further, the entire PARLIAMENT and all officers of Parliament are herewith DISMISSED effective immediately! FURTHER, it is herewith commanded that the CONSTITUTION of Thrace is immediately SUSPENDED until further notice by me!Will Thrace be a democracy or dictatorship? We shall now see! BY ORDER AND COMMAND OF THE EMPEROR. Signed, Viktor I Aleksandr, Emperor of Thrace

Imperial Decree #090302B LIFTING OF ORDER OF MARSHAL LAW & RESTORATION OF GOVERNMENT Now have you seen what CAN happen and so easily? It is said that you never know what you have until you don't have it anymore. I hope for the past few days ALL of you have learned to value DEMOCRACY because it truly is something that should be valued and valued HIGHLY. Thrace will NEVER be a dictatorship under my reign BUT who is to say that one day long after I am gone someone will not come along and declare a dictatorship? Someone posted that our latest action was "insanity." Indeed, dictatorship and the LOSS of democracy is ALWAYS insanity!! SO VALUE WHAT WE HAVE HERE! Don't take it for granted! Many of us have worked hard to make our micronation strong and democratic and we will continue to do so. As Emperor I do herewith decree that the Order of Marshal Law is now lifted and that ALL government ministers, Parliament officers, and parliament are now restored. Further, I decree the reinstatement of our Constitution. Thrace is once again democracy BUT let us NOT take it for granted!! I have no intentions of ruling as a dictator but I want all of you to learn some lessons and BE ACTIVE in our micronation here. We MUST NOT allow our micronation to become inactive and sink into nonexistence! BY ORDER OF THE EMPEROR /s/ Viktor I Aleksandr, Emperor of Thrace

Message from a Member of Parliament
I am happy to see that all has been restored to democracy Your Majesty and that you have not declared a dictatorship or absolute monarchy. Your decree declaring Marshal Law was rather shocking to say the least. I understand that this was perhaps a lesson in democracy and taking things for granted but perhaps it was a bit too dramatic. I intend no disrespect Your Majesty. I must say, however, your Marshal Law decree was shocking as Your Majesty has been one of the vanguards of democracy in Thrace so it was a bit out of character for you I believe. Anywho, I am glad you have restored democracy and invalidated your Marshal Law Order.
