The state of Venus

Yours truly,

State Visit in Molossia

On May 13th 2013 I, High Prince Harrison Proulx, made the short journey to The Republic of Molossia. There I received a tour of his great state, and after we spoke of his claim if Vesperia, based around the Marie Crater. I decided that it would be best to recognize their claim. We decided a Formal Treaty would not be necessary. Attached are Photos provided by Mr. President.
