North American Territory Annexed

1 min read
New Richmond yesterday afternoon

The Empire of Austenasia has expanded into North America for the first time with the annexation of New Richmond.

New Richmond, which has been annexed as a Crown Dependency, makes North America the fourth continent alongside Europe, Australasia and South America to be home to Austenasian land.

The land was annexed by the Empire yesterday evening by an Imperial Decree.

Joseph Kennedy MAO has been appointed the Governing Commissioner of the new Crown Dependency, and exercises absolute authority over it in the name of the Throne. Although the land is uninhabited, it adds over 28,000 square feet to Austenasia. The annexation of New Richmond is the seventh territorial acquisition of the Empire so far this year.
