To help handle the constant influx of citizenship requests, on 9 March 2018, [[Grand Duke Travis]] appointed the recently-created [[Duke of the Bear Peninsula]] to the role of Minister of Immigration. However, as the Duke had already expressed an interest in increasing citizen engagement through Westarctica's Facebook outreach, the Grand Duke added the Ministry of Citizenship to the Duke's responsibilities. There is a possibility the two roles could be split between two different people in the future.  When Jordan farmer was elected [[Prime Minister of Westarctica]], the [[Duke of Fox Grove]] stepped into the role. With the Duke's recent transition to Minister of Culture, the position is vacant.
