CROWNSHIRE, Keithieopia — After consultation with the Chancellory, Emperor Keith invoked his power to dissolve the National Assembly under Title VII Article 9 of the Constitution.

In last night's address to the nation, the Emperor expressed concern over the National Assembly failure to pass any legislation in over a year. The timing coincides with the Dominion Enquirer exposé on possible embezzlement inside the National Treasury. We are told by sources close to the Emperor that he has been in a deadlock trying to request stricter financial legislation be passed.

It is my extreme displeasure to announce that I intend to dissolve the National Assembly should the Chancellory approve my action.

— Emperor Keith on Sepday

We are told the Emperor met with the Chancellory early this morning, who overwhelmingly approved of calling for the dissolution. A dissolution has never been called before and under constitutional law, a special election must be called within a month.

Since the Nation is currently operating without a legislative branch, I'm calling for an immediate election instead of waiting.

— Emperor Keith on Uniday

The new Assembly's first legislation is expected to cover the temporary line of succession in the event of a dissolution so that more time can be given for an election in the future.
