KINGDOM OF RUTHENIA20 April 2O15 Persenburg-Götzödorf. Friendly Greetings from the Christian and Loyal Kingdom of Ruthenia! MY DEAREST PAIRS OF FAITH, I respectfully salute you all!
With great honor, I report me to you to present me and also to thank the kind invitation that I, as a Christian king and obedient to the Holy Catholic Church, could not refuse.
I am Oscar von Goetzen and Thomaz-Rocha, King of the Ruthenians. I am 23 years old, graduated in Law and raised in a traditional Catholic family, whose origins date back the crusade nobility, the De la Roche Family, that during the Holy Wars, defended the Christian values and do ever since.
The Kingdom of Ruthenia, although a modern constitutional monarchy, home to Protestants and Atheists, have a Christian king, who in his effort, promotes Christian values inside and outside the borders of his modest country. There could be no law, justice and moral principles without divine inspiration and I am here, among Christian kings, to bring my words and attitudes, rather that I learn here and much of what Our Lord inspire us.
I hope I have the privilege and the honor to promote the principles guarded by the Equestrian Order of St. Thomas and fight for the preservation of Christian values.
Humbly yours,
|

Welcome to our Order, Your Majesty! I am Sir Benedict Baughman of the Empire of Quailia, and I currently serve the Order as its Grand Master. I am very happy that you have elected to join our ranks; from what I understand, you are just the kind of knight we need to carry out our mission. I look forward to getting to know you and working with you to achieve our mutual goals.

Salve! I am glad to see you in the Order! I hope our numbers keep growing this way. I currently hold no title within the ranks of EOST, but I would like one if given Also, although Trebia would tolerate non Catholic minorities, we would prosecute sects or religions considered dangerous for public safety (for example Vodoo and Islam) and sects or religions that have most active members as blasphemous (for example Westboro Baptist Church)

Welcome, welcome! I am Sir Christopher Woods of Fingland, province of Quailia, despite the massive autonomy Fingland seems to yield. I am Chancellor in this Order. I am most glad you are with us. Now at last there are more non-Quailians than Quailians in the Order! And it's only been two months!

"The best way to take control over a people and control them utterly is to take a little of their freedom at a time, to erode rights by a thousand tiny and almost imperceptible reductions. In this way, the people will not see those rights and freedoms being removed until past the point at which these changes cannot be reversed." ~Adolf Hitler I'm glad you think that, Kristoff. Apparently I'm doing evil dictator right

It's good know all of you! In fact, it's good to know brothers in faith. And I want to know if we or our Grand Master designed for us some tasks or activities. I'm curious about our activity in general! I'm anxious, I must admit!

I'm curious about our activity in general! I'm anxious, I must admit! Up until now, the Order's activity has been centered around this forum. We hold discussions on our faith, on our micronations, and on how our faith influences our micronations. By doing so, each member has the support of each other member in their quest to build a nation upon christian principles. This is what we have at the moment, but I'm sure that as time goes on our activities will evolve and develop. As always, if any of y'all have ideas on how to further develop the Order or on how to more effectively fulfill our mission, feel free to share them!

The order could always form its own newsletter and/or YouTube channel. We should definitely try to advertise in established sources, but we would also be able to gain publicity from a source that informs about our activities and recent happenings in the micronations that are involved.

However, I don't know if we should accept ALL Catholic Micronationalists. No way I will team up with a Modernist Catholic praising the French Revolution... we are separating from the macronations for a reason right?

Yes, but I think it's time that we teamed up anyway. There's plenty I have in common with certain Protestants, and I would gladly fight against things like abortion side-by-side with them.
To tell the truth, though, I really don't know how Catholic one of those would be...
