    Greetings friends!

    Réunion is proud to present to the microworld our first COMMEMORATIVE MEDAL, now portrayed faithfully by a good photographer. It commemorates the 12th year past since our independence.

    Now, we also present our FIRST COIN, with face value of ONE CIFRA! The coin is really nice!

    Here go the pictures! Please comment!

    BTW, they´re also available for SALE.

    Yours,

    Claudio de Castro

    Alright. Apparently nobody got my point. So I'll just quote the phrase I'm referring to.

    That is obviously contradictory to the self-conception of German micronations as well as to the charter of the CartA.

    Hello!

    We are not a ROLE PLAYING GAME, since we play no roles; we simulate a country as ourselves! And we are not purely imaginary. We are PARTIALLY IMAGINARY. That means we are ONLY A SIMULATION, but that we do not play any characters neither accept fantastical claims, such as having unicorns in St. Denis, for instance.

    Greetings!

    I am glad you all met my german-speaking liaison, Giancarlo Zeni. He's a good friend and has been a Reunian for ages. I hope you will enjoy debating with him.

    Reunion is a political simulation. We do NOT claim ANY macronational territory. We believe on territory as a REFERENCE, a SYMBOL. It's not our interest to take Réunion from the French at all.

    Our geography is merely a cultural resource. We make no territorial claims: we use Reunion Island as a reference, since when Reunion was founded we didn't have many people to share a fictional territorial map with us. It was 1997!

    Now it's late to change things. We have divided the island in many Captaincies and Viceroyships, the maps are online, etc. But we make NO territorial claim.

    This should probably be taken into consideration. We want to be friends with german-speaking micronations, interact, cooperate, have intermicronational relations. We want to be a working part of this body.

    I hope you can accept us! We may have lots to learn from each other.

    Yours,

    Claudio de Castro

    Generally speaking, I highly welcome virtual states that have their origins in real states other than Germany. However, during my whole presence in the German micronations - which covers about five years -, I never noticed anything from Réunion - no postings, no interactions with other states on the map, so I hope you'll excuse my doubts about a successful integration of Réunion on the map maintained by CartA. This doesn't mean I wouldn't give Réunion a chance, though. Finally, I'm just curious about one specific fact: the virtual Réunion seems to resemble the real island Réunion quite closely. If Réunion joined CartA, how much, in km², would it cover?

    Hi There!

    Reunion has interacted directly with many nations, but not much through the forums. On the UVNO, we have many times voted (because its easy to translate whats being voted on, but not so much to translate every single message). Unfortunately since 2002 we have been very much away from intermicronational relations exception made to our presence at the LoSS , where I am Undersecretary General since 1999. (many re-elections).

    We have the exact same territory of Reunion Island. In OIK, they simply decided to add Reunion island itself to their map, which was my suggestion, then, to president Chilavert. It's quite SMALL , 2510km2, and the shape would be exact the same of the real Island.

    I hope you can help us enter this respectful body of nations. Reunion's a quite traditional micronation! We may have something to offer, experiences, etc.

    For instance, take a look at http://www.reuniao.org/media/, which has many scanned newspapers and magazines which published articles on micronationalism that mentioned our country!

    Yours, and thank you for your support,

    "A full member" as like as at the OIK? I concretisize: without interaction?

    Hello!

    That is not QUITE true. We participated for almost 3 years. unfortunately, after that, I was forbidden by the Imperial Chancellor to conduct intermicronational relations, which I now manage to have permission to do again!

    I plan to interact with as many nations as there are people who speak English in the world (and Portuguese!). Also, we'll always look for officials in Reunion who speak German!

    Esteemed Sirs and Madams,


    Reunion was once an active micronation outside our origins, which is the Lusophone Sector. That was because our micronation was founded in 1997, and was born bilingual (english/portuguese). Our chancellery has been very active since then (http://www.reuniao.org/chancellery) and that is why we got to know UVNO and so many german taions very much.

    We were members of UVNO back when the days Andres Chilavert was the president of that great institution.

    Reunion has many english speaking members but few who speak german. However, we have always managed to have a representative in continuos contact with german-speaking nations, and Reunion really values interaction with other micronations, and wants to establish relations with everyone who so desires. We never decided to keep ourselves from contacting you, and losing touch as we did. We want to re-construct that great relationship we had with so many german-speaking nations.

    This is why we want to join the CartA map, as a full member of this Foundation, be really a part of the international map. We would, if you agree, have myself as an english speaking liaison and probably a secondary liaison who will be able to understand german fully. Whenever he or she is not around, I will be here observing, and asking questions. Maybe I will end up learning german !

    We are part of the OIK map, but out of respect from you we wish to be part of yours too. Is this possible?

    Now, let´s stop yakking and give you the data about Reunion, so you get to know more about us:

    Name of the State: Sacro Imperio de Reuniao / Heiliges Kaiserreich Reunion
    Website of the State: http://www.reuniao.org
