Congress nominates Javier Treviño as the new Viceroy of Gaduridos for the Empress to name
10 May 5652



After more than 25 years of public service as the nation's Viceroy, Sir Alejandro Lopez de Leon has previously announced that he will be retiring from his position, and asked Congress to choose a successor for him. According to the Gaduri traditions, it is in Congress' powers to nominate the person, who then will be named by the Empress as the de facto head of state of Gaduridos, and who will reign here and act on behalf of the monarchy. With that out of the way, it was up to the legislature to find a non-partisan uniting figure to nominate.

It took no less than half a year, especially with the junior partner, Hosian Democratic Party, leaving the centre-right coalition, to find a person who will satisfy everyone. Unusually partisan process followed by the chaos inside the government postponed the retirement of the outgoing Viceroy by a couple of months, while the Congress was looking for the right person. And in the end, it seems that they have done so. After more than 300 interviews with various candidates, amongst them respectable academics, scientists, civil servants, retired politicians and others, the Office of the Prime Minister Alfonso Castañeda has announced that it will be nominating the rector of the University of Ciudad de Gadur (UCG) Javier Treviño before the national legislature and recommend for Empress to name him as the new viceregal of Gaduridos.

A couple days later, in the National Congress, all parliamentary groups with the exception of the Workers' and the Free Soil parties have voted for the candidature of the Treviño, afterwards holding a two-minutes standing ovation for the Viceroy-designate. Now, in accordance with the traditions and rules, Treviño will travel to the Kaliburg and have a private meeting with the Empress personally, following which she will name him as her representative in Gaduridos.
