Literary Contest: "What brought you to Nova Roma? What keeps you in Nova Roma?"
The Ludi Novi Romani are the only games created in Nova Roma, by Nova Romans, for Nova Romans, so they are very special. They celebrate our founding, so this set of games is our birthday party! We can't provide a feast, though we'd dearly love to, complete with cake and ice cream, but we *can* celebrate with great Ludi. But, to do that, we will need your active participation. One way that anyone, citizen or not, can participate is by entering this essay contest.
You are asked for at least a 300 word essay answering the following questions. "What brought you to Nova Roma? What keeps you in Nova Roma?"
There will be a panel of impartial judges, and there will be prizes, fame and glory! So ...start writing!
