I, Ealdorman Mark Accynnafon of Östlaed, am declaring my intentions to run for election to fill this vacant post.
In the past few months, I created a language family tree for the peoples of our Mercurian Empire:
Much research was conducted at the Arnum and Acholm monasteries to document all of the wonderful culture of our Empire.
Plans for the next two months:
1. Flesh out the Great Cultural Site List
Darius had spoken with me on a few occasions concerning reworking the current list, as much progress has occurred in recent times. Many new areas have arisen, and old ones re-born.
2. Promote the The Imperial Tome of Culture
Work and encourage with the realm of the Empire to publish more works to the The Imperial Tome of Culture.
3. Studying Population of Cultures
I pledge to continue Darius' work of studying the populations of various cultures, ethnicities, and religions of the Empire.
4. Creation of a series of migration maps
A truly long-term project, I wish to create a series of maps that details the migrations of various ethnic, religious, and political groups during the existence of the Empire.
