A truly historic meeting, the Andany - Liberland 2018 Diplomatic Summit, with Prince Pablo Macías of Andany and the President of Liberland, Vít Jedlička, was cancelled today, Friday, July 13. The meeting was scheduled to happen on Friday, July 13 at 12:15 PM at the Paris Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States of America.. Due to traffic and travel issues the meeting was cancelled beforehand. The scheduled meeting was supposed to encompass Liberland and diplomacy. The Prince even made plush "Polandball" with Liberland's flag as a gift, but he kept it due to him not being able to meet President Jedlička. A truly iconic moment, the meeting would spark diplomatic relations with the Free Republic of Liberland and the Principality of Andany. A recognition treaty was even going to be signed with Mr. Jedlička, as well as diplomatic relations to be started. Prince Pablo is travelling out of Nevada, after coming from Andany only two days prior to the meeting. The Prince apologized for not being able to attend the meeting; and meanwhile, President Jedlička was presenting at FreedomFest 2018. This was a great opportunity for Andany to meet real contenders in diplomacy, better than "MicroWiki-based" micronations. Prince Pablo has direct contact with President Vít Jedlička, and a new meeting will arise in the near future if time and money permit. "That meeting will be planned with months in notice", said Prince Pablo.
It all began when Prince Pablo Macías was scouring Twitter. The Liberlandian Twitter account @"Liberland_org" tweeted on FreedomFest 2018 in Las Vegas and that Liberland was going. "Seeing that Liberland was going public like that was something cool", the Prince told the Andanian Times. Later the same day, a family emergency meeting in Las Vegas was coincidentally called for, and the Prince was off to Las Vegas. At first, many messages with contacts were made with the Liberlandian Twitter account, @"Liberland_org", the following day. A schedule was sent, and the prices of FreedomFest were not cheap. A regular ticket was around $395 USD, and the one for Media was just $99 USD. On the tweet by @Liberland_org, they gave the person buying tickets a $100 USD off. This was a good bargain, but as the Prince said, "It was just too much money to pay, but it is a really good deal!" The Prince later attempted several other forms of contacts, trying to reach President Vít as soon as possible. His number was finally given, and the race was on to ask him if he could do the meeting. He finally replied with "Sure", agreeing to the meeting. "The next day, I asked if he was going, and en route to the Strip, he said 'I thought you meant Friday'. We turned back and stuff happened." Also, it turned out that Vít Jedlička was arriving at midnight. A new meeting on Friday the thirteenth of July was scheduled. It was supposed to happen at the Paris Hotel and Casino, but the exact meeting area was undisclosed due to the Prince having to cancel it. A presentation by Liberland, including Vít Jedlička, at FreedomFest was also occurring on Friday. The Andany - Liberland Diplomatic Meeting of 2018 was supposed to happen at 12:15 PM, after the Liberlandian presentation at FreedomFest. Both FreedomFest 2018 and the meeting were happening in the Paris Hotel and Casino so that President Vít would not have to walk and miss out on some events in FreedomFest during the meeting. The Prince also was going to California right after the meeting on Friday. Because of this, he had to leave early due to traffic and congestion of cars on the highway connecting Los Angeles and Las Vegas. This caused the Prince to cancel the meeting a few hours beforehand, also before the Liberlandian presentation. No response has come back from Vít Jedlička on another meeting with Andany's Prince, but the Prince himself had this statement when the Andanian Times asked him, "I think there could definitely be one if it is planned out on time. It was my fault that this meeting was planned too late and that's also another factor as to why I missed it." Andany's Secretary of State, Madeline Octaviano, had this public statement on the meeting being cancelled, "Pablo would be happy to meet with Vít in the future with better organization before."

The Intercontinental Union (IU) and the Intercontinental Union Social and Cultural Organization (IUSCO) have been officially founded on June 20, 2018 at 22:00 UTC. The IU is sometimes seen as the next GUM or its newest rival. The IU was founded by four member nations, the Principality of Andany, the Imperial Empire of Millania and New Granada, the Iustus Republic, and the Empire of Alperia. The headquarters of the IU is in the District of Floriano, Andany, and is under extraterritoriality. The diplomatic organization is heavily financed by voluntary contributions from its member states. Its objectives include, but are not limited to, maintining international peace and order, sprouting growth, development, and popularization in less-known micronations, promoting human rights, protecting the environment, helping with social and economic development, and providing humanitarian aid with war, famine, global epidemics, and natural disasters. The Intercontinental Union is more than what some micronationalists calla "YAMO", but a better thing. At the moment of this post, each member nation has a representative that lives near Andany, similar to UN representatives living in New York City. Each representative has a physical seat in the General Assembly Hall, where the Secretary General and the Deputy Secretary-General sit on a podium behind a lower one where a presentation can be conducted. Each representative sits a desk with papers explaining the meeting and what is going to be done at it. Meetings are weekly and mandatory for representatives to go to, and all micronations are welcome to submit an application to [email protected] ! Luckily, all representatives live near the IU Headquarters, where member flags are flown and topics are delegated. Special appearances from each member nation is recommended for an increase in popularity. Another thing is the first plenary IU meeting will be on Saturday, June 23, 2018 at 22:00 UTC. The Territory of Mālaekahana has officially been establish on June 15, 2018. A referendum was held previously as to where the next territorial claim would be, and all citizens voted Hawai'i; O'ahu in specific. The video above shows the best quiality avilable video of the full ceremony. Prince Pablo was very excited to conduct the ceremony, and end it peacefully. Because this is the first annex since the official founding, the event has been receiving a lot of media attention. The ceremony occurred at a house near Andany, due to undisclosed circumstances. The above video is a free, yet copyrighted video filmed by a reporter of the Andanian Times live at the ceremony. Around 30 people were in attendance of the ceremony, and small celebrations were held after. Because of this major event, June 15 is now an annual public and official holiday, called Mālaekahana Day. This holiday was made by decree of the Prime Minister, Mr. Syrus Baker, to improve Andany's chances of Hawaiian recognition and to celebrate Hawaiian culture in Andanian society.
The Prince of Andany, Pablo Macias, celebrated his 13th birthday today in in the District of Floriano. A celebration ensued in the morning and a public after party was held. Later, a family-only dinner took place. Fireworks were also shot up as a celebratory "thank-you" to the Prince by citizens in Mendia. The Prince's birthday, June 2, is a public holiday in Andany and serves as a day to celebrate the first Prince's birthday. "I just wish he has an amazing birthday;", one citizen told us in an interview. "I'm glag they made it a holiday. That way it's more official and more known to citizens here in Andany and the world." The Prince later emailed the Andanian Times saying, "Thank you for the press coverage and for letting people in this fine nation know that it was my birthday! That is greatly appreciated." The Andanian Times also contacted the Secretary of State, Madeline Octaviano, but no reply has followed.
It is officially April Fools! Yet, people on MicroWiki are making laughs. Site master Jonathan I of Austenasia added an “article” explains that he was arrested for not paying taxes by the British police. Some MicroWiki viewsers were shocked, but then realized the day in U.K. time. The link was to a video on YouTube for Rick Astley singing a song with high notes scattered.
Another “article” was posted on the main news area about Henrey Clément having to depart from MicroWiki to create a “New Community”. This also linked to an animé video on YouTube. Whether or not these make you laugh, they sure are a hell of a prank! 3/14/2018 1 Comment The Andanian Revolutionary WarThe Andanian Revolutionary War was an internal conflict in the Principality of Andany about conserving the Hudson Mountain Range into a nature conservation area. The rebel against the conservation idea was Will van den Boom, a Roman Imperial Party Senator who claimed that making a preserve wouldn't help the flora and fauna. The conflict began on 12 March 2018 after the National Assembly of Andany could not make a resolution towards the conservation area. It ended on 14 March 2018 after a peace agreement was signed in order to maintain Andany as a country and for nature to be preserved in Andanian culture and society. March 11th The National Assembly of Andany met at Assembly Hall in the District of Floriano to complete and decide upon a resolution towards making the Hudson Mountain Range into a nature conservational area for natural recreation. A Senator of the Roman Imperial Party was against the idea for creating the area. Instead, he claimed that mining would allow for a better economic boom in Andany. On the other hand, Athenian Imperial Party leader Pablo Macias (the Prince of Andany) disagreed with Will van den Boom. His ideology was that creating the conservational area would allow for a boost in tourism for the protected nature reserve, as many species of flora and fauna live in the Hudson Mountain Range. A vote on the idea was followed, with a 50/50, causing chaos to erupt in Assembly Hall. The Prince of Andany was escorted, and thus ensued the Revolutionary War for nature in Andany. March 12th (War Day) In the early morning of 12 March, the Prince of Andany was protected in the shelter of his home while 2 angry citizens protested at the Prince's home. The PAS Orion naval ship from the Andanian Navy guarded Hibiscus Bay from any mishaps in Ginepro and Hibiscus Bay. Protesters marched along the beach of Hibiscus Bay through midday until helicopters whizzed overhead, demanding them to refrain from the continued actions. The protesters persued the helicopters and kept protesting, even setting an oak tree on fire. Since oak is the national tree in Andany, it was frowned upon to burn any flora and fauna, especially one that is national or which appears on the flag. Conservationist leader Pablo Macias stood his ground and marched with his followers to Paradise Bay. At Paradise Bay, the Prince of Andany showed his affection for nature, along with his followers, by releasing Painted lady (Vanessa cardui) butterflies into the Andanian forest. This movement angered the already mad Will van den Boom. This caused the Prince of Andany to declare war on behalf of the National Assembly against Will van den Boom and his supporter. Battle of Hudson Creek At 5:02 PM AST, Pablo Macias and his supporters gathered arms and fought against the two anti-conservation idea. The Prince of Andany and one of his supporters was hit with a weak arrow from Will van den Boom. In return, the conservationalist side backfired with better arrows, injuring the leader, Will van den Boom. These were the only injuries in the entire war, leaving it as the first and worst war in Andanian history. The battle of Hudson Creek occured near the Hudson Mountain Range at the Frenchman River basin and wash. A minor flood delayed the battle, but it continued. The semi-windy weather also allotted delays to happen. Overall, the battle was a major occurance in the whole war. March 13th The infamous "Soldier at the Border" painting made by the Prince of Andany was painting to depict one of the Prince's supporters defending Andany. He is seen running and hiding at the bushes near the southern border of Andany. Will van den Boom had been retreating to the Duyatán Peninsula for medical and arms reasons. He claimed to have run low on supplies and he had an infected wound from the strong arrow which had struck him the day before. Not many events happened on this day, as March 13 would prove to be the last combat day. I minor battle did happen in Ginepro, only for the Prince to retreat because of high tide not allowing them to fully shoot the opposing side. March 14th At 7:40 AM AST, Will van den Boom and the other anti-conservationalist follower surrendered to the Prince of Andany and his followers. The reasons was stated to the Prince of Andany shortly after: "I do feel like the flora and fauna need a good habitat and protected zone to flourish in. My hateful acts have proven wrong, as it would only make more money economically, not ecologically." - Will van den Boom The Prince, his followers, Will van den Boom, and his followers all signed a peace agreement called the "Hudson Agreement". The purpose was to establish recreational parks for the flora and fauna of the Hudson Mountain Range and River Valley. 2 Andanian citizens did remain neutral throughout the entire ordeal. Some propaganda for either side was shown on national television. Following the signing of the Hudson Agreement, the Prince himself visited the nature reserve along with Will van den Boom. They explored and found some of the Painted lady butterflies still in Andany. This inspired the Prince to start the National Conservation Agency. The national organization was created to find, help, and protect Andanian flora and fauna. The official 2018 Micronational Olympics will begin on March 17, 2018 (Saturday, St. Patrick's Day) through April 1, 2018 (Easter). They will be held in Ginepro Arena at late night for the best viewing performance and purposes. According to the Prince, Andanian souvenirs and flags will be sold at all stores. Also, the Prince, head of the Micronational Olympic Group, told the Andanian Times that music would be played and that an art performance would be displayed as well. All participating countries will have their flags shown and flown at the opening ceremony. One of the art performances will be of a Saturn V rocket going to the moon and finding alien life. A piano piece will accompany a mini Andanian history performance.
The Olympic torch is still in the making, but the Micronational Olympic Group Designing Crew thinks it will be done by March 15. The game designs and bibs will be sold, and signed posters will be given of all Andanian athletes. Since the Prince of Andany will be opening the games, he will also be giving out signed posters for free. Tickets will be sold until 6:00 PM Andanian Standard Time (5:30 PM CET). Viewing of the event will be available and a code will be given for broadcasters that want to display the Olympics. No fee will be charged for viewing any ceremony, event, or broadcasting; though, a special code that will be emailed to the broadcaster for every broadcast will be given individually. The MOG Secretary stated, "If any copy of the Olympics from the Andanian Broadcasting Network is found, a class action lawsuit will be filed for copyright infringement of the media displayed, arts, music, etc. This is why we need contact to people who want to save the video, display, or photograph it. The cauldron is supposed to be lit at the end of the opening ceremony as the final ending for the opening ceremony, and the start of a new era in Micronational Olympics! Andany is hosting the 2018 Micronational Olympic Games. This means that Andany, Posaf, and Danatia are also participating in the Games. Since they will take place online, more country's can participate in the Games. The Prince explained, "I hope Andany can win Gold Medals all the way! Our National Olympic Committee will train our athletes thoroughly. I will guarantee that Andany will receive at least 2 Gold Medals, as our trained athletes will succeed!". Many of Andany's citizens also voted on who will be the athletes. One announced winner was the Prince himself! The others are to be announced later on January 11, 2018. We hope to see you there!
On January 7, 2018, The Prince voted on behalf of the citizens of the Principality of Andany on the Federated union of Micronations (founded by His Majesty, the Prince) with the United Micropact. This happened at the Quorum, along with Daniel Lee, the President of the Commonwealth Of Danatia. Both voted yes, which means the FUM will merge with the United Micropact; most likely the merge will happen on January 8, 2018. The United Micropact is an organization similar to the Federated Union of Micronations that hopes to keep micronational conflict away and to maintain peace throughout the micronational community. Though the FUM will merge, the Prince applied to join the United Micropact before the voting. This was the probable cause of President Daniel Lee asking the FUM to merge. While the merg hasn’t happened, the citizens of Andany aren’t scared, and neither should you. It isn’t a big change, but it is a portal to meeting more country’s! The Prince said in an interview, “I think that the outcome of the merge will be fantastic because just joining the United Micropact would help establish more diplomatic relationships. This is a really good decision that the citizens of Andany, including me, voted on.”.
The Prince told the Andanian Times, "I'll surely give out more awards to kind and caring people that deserve an honor. This honor is meant to show that the recipient has done a good thing to the community.". He also announced that the award can be revoked if the recipient doesn't act the way from which they got it in the first place. The only people to receive the Golden Star Award was the President of the Commonwealth of Danatia and Bilal I, Sultan of Shorewell. More awards will be given...
