I’m the President-for-Life of The Republic of Tyber. Elected, of course, even if I was the only one who voted.

Ha, I didn’t know that. I guess that explains your endorsement of me then, **JimSox5**?

**Blackeyes** , Straightdopia is a splinter group of Dopers that formed their own little region at some point along the line. I know of no ideological or political difference between the two regions; speaking personally I joined the Sea of Cecil because it was bigger and seemed more active.

hey, **Lightning** , how could I not endorse one of the most memorable dopers ever to have graced the boards? Also, I agree with you about Straightdopia. Although, I was under the impression that Sea of Cecil is younger. I could easily be wrong, but I would still like to see the regions brought together as one at some point, preferably as Sea of Cecil, since it is bigger and for all I’ve seen, more active.

I’m currently part of **Mare Unae** which, I guess, could be considered an off-shoot (or perhaps just a Bay) of the Sea of Cecil.

Leetspeak and grammatically incorrect homophobia are one thing, but donut hiding? We have to draw the line somewhere.

P.S. Where is my good friend from Iofiel?

No no no, the UN is evil.

Evil, I tell you.

Everytime a resolution was passed, Political expression went from “outlawed” to “some other, less repressive state” in my nation.

I was forced to withdraw in order to maintain my stranglehold on power.

Plus, there’s the fact that all those nifty resolutions didn’t make a whit of difference, otherwise.

I am a failed court jester. I kept making inappropriate jokes and kept getting fired (and occasionally fired at). Fortuantely, there seems to be a cultural taboo against doing away with the not quite right in the head otherwise I may have been killed.

These days, I try to keep a low profile by keeping my thoughts to myself.

I am the ruler of Happyplace and if you think my fight against cannibalism is over you’re wrong…WRONG… **WROOOOONG!!!**  
My resolution banning Cannibalism would’ve be right on page 1, but it disappeared.☹  
The good fight has just begun.  
Before I can stop cannibalism in the world, I must see that it is stopped in The Sea of Cecil. Who’s with me?😃
