After peace talks with all of the nations that comprise the Morean Archipelago, the nations of the archipelago have unified under one flag, the standard of the Queen Ouriana II. The nations, with the Queen as their sovereign will be able to perform their own local governmental acts as before, but required to pay tribute to her Majesty.

This unification also signifies the end of a period of perpetual isolationism. The Royal Council in Trinacria has suggested opening relations with nearby nations such as Marquette, Aloia, and Genolia. The Royal Council wants to have the nation spread it's diplomatic and marital ties across the world to increase general prestige and well-being.

Due to popular demand and lack of exquisite public gardens in the nation of Arveyres, the Imperial Commission under conduction by Her Majesty Farah II, has finished the Virgin Gardens at the Imperial Palace. After spending an abundance of money to import exotic plants from all across the archipelago, the Commission planted them all across the newly expanded gardens behind the Palace of Virgo.

The Orangerie of the Palace has become the main tourist attraction due to intricate designs that are new to many gardens across the nation. Also encompassing a grand aviary, the gardens are expected to become the largest garden in the nation, as there are plans to expand it to encompass a grand 50 square kilometers of land.

After months of seclusion by the Empress, the nation has welcomed an addition to the Imperial Family, and a crown princess who shall succeed her mother's throne. Princess Narendra was born on the 1st of August 1700. The Princess was born in the Hospitalier Palace of Trinacria in the presence of her father, Prince Umar and the medical gentry.

Declining health has also struck the Empress, and she is not expected to reign for the upcoming ten years of her life. The Empress now spends her "borrowed time" in the presence of her sister, Saurina, taking time to read in the Orangerie of the Palace.
