With the signing of D.L. 011, the responsibility for determining a state's boundaries shall fall to the states themselves. In addition, the territories and colonies have either been reformed or eliminated entirely, with the newly crafted Aurora Territory being the only new addition.
All of these changes take place in the shadow of the Prince of Ohio's sudden admission into a hospital in the United States on the 18th, following an episode of severe seizures. While the Prince's health is improving, the Emperor will be returning to Oahu Colony on the 23rd of August in order to be with the Imperial Family.
The micronational community has responded to the news with prayers of support and numerous well-wishes. Both the Office of the Prime Minister and Emperor have received emails from Imvrassia wishing the Prince a speedy recovery, as well as numerous posts on the MicroWiki forum. The Prime Minister also contacted the Emperor following the announcement in order to give his support.
More information on the Prince's condition should be forthcoming.
