	<b>Memmius</b> entered Nova Roma the 15th of May 2004 (Maius MMDCCLVII) as <b>P. Minius Albucius</b>, to share his interests with other people fond of Rome. Grateful to former south France Gens Minia to have welcome him during his first year in Nova Roma, he took the opportunity of NR law on emancipation to change his name from "Minius" to "Memmius". This last choice allowed him to make live again the ancient Gens Memmia illustrous name, and, at the same time, not to change his acronym, PMA.		<b>Memmius</b> entered Nova Roma the 15th of May 2004 (Maius MMDCCLVII) as <b>P.

Supported by the then political majority, '''P. Memmius Albucius''' and '''K. Fabius Buteo Quintilianus''' won this election, as did all the candidates they supported in these annual elections. '''Albucius''', surprinsingly, was elected consul maior, thus becoming the first ''consul'' from Gallia in the whole history of Rome.
		+
		+	What should have been a year of reforms was, for Albucius' first consular term, a year of fights during which both consuls opposed one each other, through one of the major crisis lived by the Republic since its recreation.
		+
		+	The election of '''Albucius''' as consul maior had in fact disturbed the plans drawn by the more important internal factio of the then majority, which, around '''Quintilianus''' and '''Piscinus''' and with the contribution of the former consuls Curiatius and Iulius, had prepared the setting of a dictatorship for {{2011}}. The error committed by this group was to let '''P. Memmius Albucius''' aside of this preparation, probably because it was convinced that '''Fabius Buteo''' would be, elected as consul maior, the natural leader of the consular biga.
		+
		+	The first difference occurred in the third week of January, when '''Albucius''' informed his colleague that he did not feel bound by any 'agreement' on the dictatorship, as he had not been informed on the details, conditions and scope of his colleague's idea. At the same time, he launched the workshop of the renewal of NR Inc. by-laws, that he set, as far he was concerned, as the 1st priority in the ''Program {{2011}}'', before the IT question (fixing the IT, specially the electoral tool problems).
		+
		+	Though he had reaffirmed, in his inaugural speech in the Curia, his full support to the Religio romana and its institutions, he faced an increased inertia of the Collegium augurum whose he solicited the head, '''M. Moravius Piscinus''', for having the auspices taken, in reasonable times, before the sessions of the Senate or of the Comitia. Towards this inertia, he finally took himself in April these auspices, thus affirming the traditional ''ius auspicandi'' of curule magistrates.
		+
		+	Though the consular seminar held in Stockholm at mid-April between both consuls had been globally positive, the difficulty or reluctance of the consul minor to cool down his supporters, whose head was '''M. Moravius Piscinus''', augur and pontifex maximus, cancelled the effect of the Swedish meeting.
		+
		+	In June, the consul minor left Albucius with the reins of the Republic during the preparation and sitting of the conventus that Fabius Buteo had called in Rome during the first half of June, and which was a failure. '''Moravius''' then contested the right of consul '''Memmius Albucius'' to call a comitia during this month, refused him the auspices and organized – being also diribitor – the absence of selection of the praerogative century for these elections, due on the first days of July. At the same time '''Moravius''' tried to obtain, as pontifex maximus, a total control of the comitia curiata, which invests the highest magistrates, specially the praetors who were to get out of the called elections.
		+
		+	For the praetrix maior, '''Iunia''', followed by her colleague '''Hortensia''', had resigned during this decisive first half of June, after that consul '''Albucius''' had been obliged to recall them to the observation of Law and that he would not accept that the State be used as a tool to eliminate political adversaries.'''Albucius''' had thus taken in charge, in the absence of his colleague, the direct management of the praetura.
		+
		+	At the end of June, the bridges were broken between both consuls when '''Fabius Buteo''' tried to convene the Senate, with no previous information of his colleague, on the IT question, while '''Albucius''' had reminded him that he would not accept that this matter be evoked as long as the By-Laws matter would not have been settled. '''Albucius''' vetoed '''Quintilianus''' ' call.
		+
		+	In July, the consul minor, who communicated no longer with '''Albucius''', organized with '''M. Moravius Piscinus''', an attempt to impose a dictatorship. He convened the Senate who voted, in the second half of July, this dictatorship. The proposed dictator was not '''Quintilianus''' himself, who had intended assuming this charge since October 2010, but '''Gn. Equitius Marinus'''.
		+
		+	But'''Quintilianus''' ignored the veto launched by '''Albucius''', who had stated that the consul minor had diverted the Constitution by including four tribunes in his convening, thus annihilating inconstitutionally '''Albucius''' ' veto power.
		+
		+	At the same time, Iudex '''Sabinus''', on a petitio by '''Q. Caecilius Metellus''', condemned '''M. Hortensia Maior''', former praetor, for the violation of the law committed against '''C. Equitius Cato''', and specially to an inhabilitation to hold any public position. But this sentence was not obeyed by '''Hortensia''', who remained as sacerdos Mentis, with the assessed support of '''M. Moravius Piscinus, who convened a session of the Collegium Pontificum who declared Consul '''Albucius''' as impius, specially to have assessed his right to take himself his auspices.
		+
		+	'''Albucius, supported by Censor '''Iulius Sabinus''', Tribune '''Petronius Dexter''', senator '''Iunius Palladius''', and soon by a third of the Senate, declared that he did not recognize the senate session held unconstitutionally in July. Around mid-August, after several private discussions, the proposed dictator, '''Equitius Marinus''' renounced his position.
		+
		+	Under the pressure, a few others main supporters of the “Dictatorial Factio” gave up their positions and the Republic. Among them '''Hortensia Maior''' and two tribunes, '''Curius''' and '''Valeria'''. Tribune '''Aquillius''', after having supported the Piscinian factio, decided to join the legalist side. A majority of tribunes thus supported, in September, '''Albucius''' ' point of view.
		+
		+	After consul '''Quintilianus''' vetoed the senatus consultum ultimum voted by the senate, convened by '''Albucius''' in August and who had appointed '''Tullia''' and '''Ullerius''', the winners of the praetorian July election, as praetors suffecti, '''Albucius''' decided to wait that his colleague lifts his veto to propose again to fill the praetorian positions. But '''Quintilianus''' did never, and '''Albucius''' was obliged to go on assuming the praetura until the end of the year. Inside this mission, he received a second petitio, led against '''M. Moravius Piscinus''' by '''C. Equitius Cato''', and still pending on Kal. 2011.
		+
		+	In September and October, Albucius, in the absence of his colleague who abstained to fulfill his consular duties since the beginning of July, cleared up the payment of the taxes, that the resignation of '''Eq. Iunia Laeca''' as CFO on August 6, had left untreated. In late October, he placed Italia, after the resignation of Praefectus '''Annaeus''', under his direct administration with the approval of the Senate, and acted to build a senatorial majority.
		+
		+	In November, with the decisive support of L. Cornelius Sulla and sen. Cn. Iulius Caesar, this majority was built, after the resignation of a few senators, including '''M. Moravius''', and the suspension, by Censor '''T. Iulius Sabinus''' of the senators who had not paid their taxes for 2010.
		+
		+	At the end of November, '''P. Memmius Albucius''' could organize, via an electronic way, the annual elections, which were held normally. '''Albucius''' refused the candidacy of '''A. Tullia''', which had voted the dictatorship in July and who had been appointed, before her candidacy, in the electoral team.
		+
		+	In December, the renewed Collegium Pontificum, whose new Pontifex Maximus was Censor '''Iulius''', lifted the “impietas” of Consul '''Albucius''', who supported the elevation of '''K. Fabius Buteo Modianus''' to the dignity of Rex Sacrorum.
		+
		+	As far as his neutrality could allow him, '''Albucius''' supported the candidacies of Ullerius and Equitius to the consulate. He saw in the fact that '''C. Equitius Cato''' might assume the consulate, a contribution to the pax religiosa in the Republic (''Cato being not privately a cultor deorum'').
		+
		+	Beside an elder colleague who seemed to be '''the''' political head of the consular team, '''P. Memmius Albucius''' appeared in January 2010 rather as a legal technician. The fights that he was obliged to face, in the circumstances in which he was placed, turned finally at his advantage : he managed to eliminate successively all his major opponents, to reverse an opposed senatorial majority, and to keep the Republic in its legal frame, preventing the programmed elimination, by the Dictatorial Faction, of major characters of Nova Roma Senate, specially '''C. Equitius Cato''' and '''L. Cornelius Sulla Felix'''. Though he lives in a historical European province of the Republic, he prevented that the North American provinces loose the influence that they deserve to keep, for he is convinced that Nova Roma cannot develop without two equal poles on each side of the Atlantic Ocean.
		+
		+	As a consequence of this term who looked more like as a war time term than a peace time one, '''Albucius''' could not accomplish all he intended to do in January {{2010}}.
		+	He could not have the by-Laws question solved, because of the resistance organized by '''Moravius''' and his allies. He could not, also, obtain the constitutional proposals (Preamble, religious paragraph) he introduced in March {{2010}}, because a too low mobilization of the then majority. In the Senate, he fails, by one vote, having the Equites status being, partly, modernized.
		+	He succeeded, on another hand, in addition of preserving the Republican institutions, to reshape a large part of our provincial organization, to give Nova Roma a more structured and analytic budget, to redefine the Official lists, to create a Forum Hospitum dedicated to welcome non-citizens and future ones, and to renew the status of the Magister aranearius. He updated the membership of the Forum Romanum, boosted the payment of the annual taxes, secured the legal position of Nova Roma Inc. towards the incorporation law, and contributed to the renewal of the Collegia religiosa. He reactivated the right of curule magistrates, and specially consuls, to hold the ius auspicandi.
		+
		+	On Kal. Ian. {{2011}}, he transferred his consular and praetorian powers to the elected magistrates 2764 and entered the censura, having been elected censor for 2764-2765. With his colleague '''T. Iulius Sabinus''' he set on Jan. 8, {{2011}} the album senatorium down to 22 members, thus complying the requirements of Nova Roma Inc.'s act of incorporation.
