Things that happen today, or happened on this day in history...
1. It's Patriots' Day
2. It's Tax Day
3. It's the anniversary of the start of the Civil War (when Lincoln sent troops to stop an armed insurrection)
4. It's the anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's death
5. It's the 100th birthday of North Korea's founder
6. Two security guards were murdered in Massachusetts, and italian anarchists Sacco and Vanzetti would be executed for it amid much controversy.
Also, in 5 days or so, it's the anniversary of Columbine, Virginia Tech, and Hitler's birthday.

Just tossing this out there as a blueprint of where this Regions Government should go from here. All feedback is welcome.
Section II, Article D and E and Section III Article C of the Constitution are amended to say:
Section II (d) One Regional Kommissær is to be elected at-large from among the trustees over the course of seven days, starting on the first Tuesday of January, May, and September, using instant-runoff voting to discern which candidate receives an absolute majority of the vote. The winner is to serve as head of government,and as the official "Lord of the Cakes." The Kommissærs vote shall be that resolving tied verdicts reached by the Alțing. The Regional Kommissær also acts as the head of the Alțing, bringing pieces of legislation up for debate, vote, and bringing the legislation to the Wisard for signing.
(e) - No rules of procedure shall be formalized by the Alțing except for those outlined in this Constitution. The Alțing shall build consensus or, in lieu of settling conflicts with words, resolve differences via games played by those of the Folk Representanter in a row. Failing that, the Regional Kommissær is to utilize their unabridged power to feast on cakes to restore Folk Representanter solidarity.
Section III
(c) - If the Wisard Ekstraordinær deems legislation unconstitutional, he or she strikes it, rendering the legislation annulled unless the Alțing can muster a 2/3rds majority for an override before the end of its session. If the Wisard merely deems legislation to his unliking, he can strike it, but that strike can be overturned if the Alțing can get a 2/3rd majority to overturn it.
