Vegno (/ˈveɲɲo/), officially the Republic of Vegno, is an independent nation in the northeast of Apollonia. Vegno declared its independence in 1705 AN as a semi-presidential republic with the simultaneous composition of a constituent assembly to draft the first Constitution of Vegno. The capital is located in the city of Cossa, overlooking the gulf of Cantor.

History

The "Costituzione del Vegno" signed by the Seven Founding Fathers of the Republic.

The Republic of Vegno was founded in 1705 AN with the drafting of the "Costituzione del Vegno" (Constitution of Vegno), signed by the seven members of the Constituent Assembly. Cossa was chosen as capital, since it was the largest city in Vegno, while the other big cities of Mhazar, Agropl, Murgione and Sancrus were named chief towns of their provinces.

The Constitution of the Republic of Vegno is the fundamental law of the State, which occupies the top of the hierarchy of sources in the legal system of the Republic: it is composed of 12 articles written and published in 12/1705 AN by the Seven Founding Fathers of the Constituent Assembly of Vegno.

The seven members of the constituent assembly are, provisionally, the most important offices of the Republic of Vegno, pending the appointment of an official President and a Prime Minister; these members are:

Salvatore "Shalva" Mancuso, Michelangelo Levati, "P." Antonio Visciglia, Luca "Lo Zar" Zarrella, Marco "M.M" Munno, Haldi Rinaldi "Pane" e Peppe "Freeda" Cantore.

The first general elections will be held in 1706 AN.

Etymology

According to the Vegnese Ministry of Culture, the term "Vegno" derives from gaian "Regno", whose meaning is kingdom.

This theory is supported by historical documents according to which the first settlers suffered from rhotacism. A well-known legend within the nation tells that the first settler who set foot off the coast of Cossa exclaimed: "Questo savà il nostvo Vegno!" ("This will be our kingdom!"), mispronouncing the term "Regno". Although the nation was configured over time as a republic, the name did not change.

The term was also associated with money, friendship and the welfare of the nation for unknown reasons.
