[constantinopolis Progression] Basileia Rhomaion

Ioustinianos looked down at the mess of papers and bounded documents that occupied his desk, a single fine parchment, bound with the Volarys Imperial seal rested atop the sea of papers. He sighed, he'd expected something like this to happen eventually, but now? The timing was most inconvenient. He picked up the parchment, reading it over one last time.​

By Order of His Imperial Majesty​

Please be advised,
Recent events have left the Volarys fleet in an inoperable state, military support will be unavailable for an undetermined period of time, we suggest you make alternative arrangements in the time being.​

Ioustinianos cursed, tossing the parchment back onto the desk as he arose from his seat, turning to look over the city sprawling behind him, motioning to a servant at the doorway.
"Summon the Senators, we have much to discuss"​

After much deliberation, the Senate and Basileus of Constantinopolis have elected to announce their temporary withdrawal from the Volarys Empire and the prosperous unification of their neighbors under the Basileia Rhomaion in order to more effectively maintain regional control and ensure the safety of their people.​
