Governor-General Resigns; Successor Takes Office

Michael Pitre, former Governor-General of the Dominion of Sayville, resigned this evening after expressing an interest in playing a more active role in government by serving on the Executive Council.

The Governor-General is the viceregal representative of the Powhatan monarch and is a largely ceremonial post that serves as a symbol of the Powhatan monarchy's presence in the DOS. Mr. Pitre is succeeded by Theodore Porter, who took office after being appointed by HI&RM The Emperor-King on the advice of the Powhatan government.

Outside of the Dominion of Sayville, Mr. Porter is the Duke of Ottis in the Duchy of Ottis, a constituent state of the Kingdom of Northwood-Oregon.

Charles Burgardt, Prime Minister of the Dominion of Sayville, released the following statement soon after Mr. Porter's installation as Governor-General:

I'm pleased to announce that Theodore Porter has been officially installed as the new Governor-General of the Dominion of Sayville by HI&RM The Emperor-King of Powhatan, effective immediately. It's expected that Letters Patent reflecting this change will be issued soon. I congratulate the new Governor-General on assuming this position and thank his predecessor, Michael Pitre, for his service to the Dominion of Sayville and Kingdom of Powhatan.

Central among these was a modified version of the traditional purple-white-gold Pan-Sayvillian tricolor, which served as a basis for the flags of the Kingdom of Sayville, Kingdom of West Sayville, and even the Commonwealth's flag. These designs were released to the general public on June 13, 2020, with the Empire of Sayville releasing their own redesigns a few days prior on June 6.

Plus précisément, le Mémorandum établit « l'anglais sayvillien » et le « français sayvillien » - définis comme les variétés d'anglais et de français, respectivement, qui sont parlées par les habitants macronationaux de la grande région de Sayville - comme les langues préférées pour les discussions inter-sayvillien ; il exige que les accords interrégionaux signés entre les régions de la CSR soient publiés dans les deux langues pour être juridiquement contraignants.
