Press Release
Office of the Privy Councillor for Foreign Affairs

Privy Councillor for Foreign Affairs Grazia Marelli extends the condolences of the Principality of Sartoria to the Drewish People on the occasion of the passing of Grand Imperator Christopher Stachowiak. It is always a difficult time for any nation when its chief executive passes, and the Drewish Empire is no exception.

Grand Imperator Stachowiak was a important figure to modern international affairs and worked tirelessly to ensure the Drewish Empire would have a relevant place in the world. It is the hope of the Privy Council that Drewish will find a way to move forward from the passing of its chief executive to continue on that path while furthering the goals of freedom, democracy and human rights both at home and abroad.

Press Release
Office of His Highness Prince Patrizio

High Highness Prince Patrizio has received with profound sadness the news of the passing of Satine, Former Empress of Noveaux.

Satine Remanti was a steadfast leader of Noveaux, fair with her people and strong towards the world, a pillar in her country for decades, a staple of her time and one of the most significant figures in Noveaux. She was also a dear friend to Sartoria, an ally who would always stand by its side on the march towards progress and the defence of democratic advancement at home.

Her passing signals the end of an era, but also issues a challenge to the future leadership of Noveaux and Sartoria to follow her example, her warmth towards all and her unrelenting commitment to fairness and justice in all aspects of society. Her legacy will not be forgotten, nor the lessons she taught us all, throughout her long live in the service of her nation.
