Edictum censorium de legibus censui censendo

EDICTUM CENSORIUM DE LEGIBUS CENSUI CENSENDO I. Nos, S. Lucilius Tutor et A. Tullia Scholastica, censores populi Novi Romani Quiritium, ex hóc initium censús civium Novorum Romanorum edicimus. Antea omnes assidui et omnes cives novi in censu automatarie conscribi solebant, at post conjurationem Cn. Caesaris et L. Sullae illegalem, non jam accessum ad tales indices habemus, qua de causa necesse erit aliis modis civium enumerandorum uti. (I. We, S. Lucilius Tutor and A. Tullia Scholastica, censores of the Nova Roman People of Quirites, by this edict decree the official inception of the census of the citizens of Nova Roma. In the past, all assidui and all new citizens used to be included in the census roster of citizens automatically, but after the illegal coup d'état of Caesar and Sulla, we no longer have access to those lists. For this reason, it will be necessary to employ other methods of enumerating the citizenry.) II. Sacrificia censús aperiendi a Cn. Lentulo pontifice et auspicia censús incipiendi a C. Claudio augure in nomine amborum censorum habita sunt et auspicia bona et fausta esse nunc populo Novo Romano annuntio. (II. The census opening sacrifices have been made by pontifex Cn. Lentulus and the census auspices have been taken by augur C. Claudius in the name of both censors, and now they are announced to the Nova Roman people that they were favorable.) III. Ego, A. Tullia Scholastica censor C. Claudium Quadratum praeconem ad censum facio. Ego quidem S. Lucilius Tutor censor Cn. Cornelium Lentulum praeconem ad censum facio.

(III. I, censor A. Tullia Scholastica, appoint C. Claudius Quadratus as praeco for the census. At the same time, I, censor S. Lucilius Tutor, appoint Cn. Cornelius Lentulus as praeco for the census.)

IV. More majorum et instituta, formulas antiquas majorum nostrorum Romanorum restituens et observans, ego, A. Tullia Scholastica censor, auspiciis bonis acceptis, praeconi jussum hunc edico: (IV. According to the mos majorum, reviving and observing the ancient formulae of our Roman forefathers, I, censor A. Tullia Scholastica, upon receiving the favorable auspices, give the following order to the praeco:) Quod bonum, fortunatum, felix salutareque siet renascenti populo Romano Quiritibus populoque Novo Romano Quiritibus reique publicae populi Novi Romani Quiritium mihique collegaeque meo, fidei magistratuique nostro: "Omnes Quirites, pedites armatos privatosque, curatores omnium tribuum, si quis pro se sive pro altero rationem dari volet, voca inlicium huc ad me." (May this be good, fortunate, happy, and salutary to the renascent Roman people, the Quirites, to the Nova Roman people of the Quirites, and to the republic of the Nova Roman people of the Quirites, and to me and my colleague, to our honesty and our office: "Call hither to me to assemble all the Quirites, armed and private citizens, the spokesmen of all the tribes, in case anyone for himself or for another wishes a reckoning to be given.")

V. Ceterae leges censui censendo sequuntur solum Anglice: (V. The rest of the rules of the census shall follow only in English:) VI. The census of the Nova Roman People shall follow the procedures mandated by the lex Fabia de censu ( http://www.novaroma.org/tabularium/leges/2003-05-31-i.html ), excepting the details below due to various impediments:

VI.A. The census shall be longer than 16 weeks, because our citizenry is much larger and more scattered around various communication fora than it was when the lex Fabia de censu was enacted, and the census procedure is also slowed down due to technical problems with the official website and citizen database caused by the hostile coup of the Sullan faction. VI.B. At the time of the issuing of this edict, there is no definite method of paying taxes for the current year Q. Arrio P. Annaeo coss., however, if anyone would make donations to the non-corporate government of Nova Roma, he will be registered among the active citizens in this census even if he made no other registration at this census. VII.A. The censors specify the following address as the headquarters of the Census Office for surface mail contacts during the census: Census NR Officer Charles Aronowitz 2251 Avenue Regent Montreal, Quebec Canada H4A 2R2

VII.B. Citizens who wish to register in this census online shall contact praeco and scriba censorius C. Claudius Quadratus, consular senator, at: c.claudius.quadratus@gmail.com

with the subject line "Census" and shall state their Roman name, macronational name, city and country of residence and year of birth, or any change in their contact information since 2011 (when the last census was held).

VIII. The censors establish a new Temporary Album Civium Database of Nova Roman Citizens where all information required by the laws will be stored. This shall be merged with the old official Album Civium of Nova Roma when our corporation and corporate assets are recovered. IX. The census starts on Id. Mart. (15th March) and ends on pridie Kal. Nov. (31st October) and will be concluded by the lustrum of the Nova Roman People. X. This edict is effective immediately.

Edictum consulare on acting magistrates

Edictum consulare on acting magistrates

I. This edictum is under the force of senatus consultum ultimum and the lex Cornelia Domitia de re publica constituenda, in the name of, and is issued based on the constitutional interventional power of, the liberators' committee.

II.The terms of office of quaestors would expire on 5 December, of the plebeian tribunes and aediles on 10 December. In order to avert any troubles out of this, all current magistrates remain in office as acting magistrates until the elections are concluded.

Q. Arrius Nauta consul, committee member

Edictum consulare de morte et memoria L. Sullae viri consularis

EDICTUM CONSULARE DE MORTE ET MEMORIA L. SULLAE VIRI CONSULARIS

In accordance with the proposal from the Praefectus rei publicae administrandae, Quaestor and Pontifex Cn. Cornelius Lentulus, we issue the following edict:

I. By consular imperium, we declare this next a.d. IV Id. Sex. (10 August) as a memorial day of grief for L. Cornelius Sulla Felix, who was an important protagonist in the early history of Nova Roma. While his actions in his joint faction with Cn. Iulius Caesar caused him to be declared an enemy of the res publica, his role as a dedicated patron to his numerous friends and as an important early citizen during Nova Roma's birth was significant, and as a closure to a period of internal conflicts, we, the consuls, in the name of the Nova Roman People, the Quirites, wish to make his memory publicly honored by the state.

II. The magistrates, all the officers of the state, the priests and all citizens are hereby invited to offer sacrifices for L. Cornelius Sulla Felix on this next a.d. IV Id. Sex. (10 August).

III. Financed by donations, the Senate and People of Nova Roma, the Nova Roman Republic shall send a flower wreath and a ribbon inscribed with "NVLLVS AMICVS MELIOR NVLLVS INIMICVS PEIOR : NOVA ROMA AD SVLLAM" (No better friend, no worse enemy. From Nova Roma to Sulla) and a placard listing his offices to L. Sulla's funeral and/or to his grave or urn or memorial place.

IV. Donations must be sent to the PayPal addess of citizen Pompeia Minucia Strabo who organized and arranged the sending of the memorial items:

III. As the perpetrators of the illegal dictatorship and the so-called “corporate” senate still maintain control of the corporate infrastructure, communication channels and the normal voting tools of Nova Roma, refuse to defer to lawfully established procedure, disallow any exercise of electoral process and willfully impede the election of magistrates, voting shall be conducted by e-mail. The e-mails containing the votes shall be sent to the following e-mail address, designated as the Cista:

cista2771@gmail.com

IV. The voter's e-mail must contain the full Roman name of the voter and the selected candidates' names. The following may be used as an example:

Voters may use languages other than English to communicate their votes.

Note: If more than one position is to be filled for a level of magistrate, voters may choose to vote for none of the candidates, only one candidate, or for as many as they wish up to the number of positions that need to be filled.

Q. Arrius Nauta Consul

Edictum consulare de Parilibus Pacis Deorum

Edictum consulare de Parilibus Pacis Deorum

I. After Nova Roma received the new Palladium and came into the possession of the worldwide renascent Roman People in its 20th year, on the Ides of October Sex. Lucilio C. Claudio P. Annaeo Q. Catulo tr. mil. cos. pot. (2770 AUC / 2017) at the Completion of the Founding of the New Roman Nation, and the Confirmation of the Declaration was issued by the royal decree of the interim rex sacrorum and interrex Cn. Lentulus Alexander, in which Nova Roma proclaimed itself as the property of all Romans around the world, and after the leaders of Nova Roma presented the new Palladium and Nova Roma in Rome on the Parilia C. Claudio T. Domitio (II) cos., (2771 AUC / 2018) in the 20th Anniversary, the Sacred Year of Concordia, Nova Roma entered a new phase in the history of Roman revivalism and reconstructionism, where a fully established New Roman People can honor the Roman gods. After all these important steps, this year the Parilia, the birthday of Rome, and the Pascha or Easter fall on the same day, today.

II. The end of the history of our ancestors, the ancient Romans, was marked by an exacerbated religious conflict between the traditional Roman religion and the Christian religion, when Rome adopted the Christian religion as its state religion, and the old religion of our gods was banned. Rome fell, and the Roman People soon disappeared as an entity and identity. There are still among us who cannot forget that Christianity eliminated our ancestral religion, however, during the 1500 years after the fall of Rome, Christianity also became an ancestral religion of Rome, and almost all of the ancestors of the present day Nova Romans were Christians generations after generations since the fall of Rome. The state religion of Rome was Christian ever since, and Christianity rules Rome and the inhabitants of Rome today. We cannot deny these facts, and as a polytheist culture, we cannot deny the divinity of the Christian god or the validity of the Christian religion, either. We cannot continue to consider the Christian god a foreign god, either, after his cult in Rome was established about 1950 years ago and it has been the official religion for 1600 years. It would be impietas not to recognize the god of our more recent ancestors, because honoring our ancestors is the core of the Roman religion. The period of hostility or ambivalence shall end, and we shall reconcile the old gods of Rome with the Christian god of Rome.

III. Based on the advice of pontifex Cn. Lentulus, I interpret the coincidence of the Parilia and the Pascha as a sign for Nova Roma: after the recent developments of Nova Roma, the Completion of the Founding, the establishment of the new Palladium, the bringing of the Palladium back to Rome, the Roman gods are pleased, and the Christian god of Rome and the old gods of Rome are giving a joint sign together on the birthday of Rome: the rebirth of Rome has really started.

IV. For all these reasons, I hereby give the mandate to pontifex Cn. Cornelius Lentulus, praefectus rei publicae, quaestor, to conduct the Parilia rituals in my name and under my consular, head of state, auspices, and I order him that he request all the gods of Rome, the Lares, Manes, Penates and Genius of the Roman People, that they recognize this Parilia as the start of a new era in Roman revivalism, and that they confirm the new Pax Deorum, not only because Nova Roma has made its contract with them at the Completion of the Founding ceremony, which has been dutifully maintained, but also as a recognition that the revival of the Roman People is the will of both the old Roman gods and the Christian god of Rome, who can be worshiped as one of the gods of Rome and the Roman People, in order to establish the new Pax Deorum.
