On Wednesday 5th, the most recent expansion of the Empire took place with the annexation of the Crown Dependency of Kingeston.
Kingeston, which consists of just over two and a half acres of parkland bordered by the Canadian province of Ontario, was claimed for Austenasia by Austin Jaax, who has been appointed Governing Commissioner of the new claim and given a position in the Privy Council.
As a Crown Dependency, Kingeston will not be represented in Parliament but will be administered by Jaax autonomously from the central government.
In other news, on 4 December, the Emperor announced the official start of winter in the Austenasian calendar.
