Difference between revisions of "2018 Ladonia Visit"

As the day wore on, the Grand Duke felt it would be appropriate to recognize the rare feat Matthew had accomplished in making it all the way to Calsahara for the visit. In [[Montague Square]], under the proud Colonial Flag of Calsahara, Grand Duke Travis presented Matthew with the regalia for a Knight of the Snowflake.

There had been some discussion concerning whether or not it would be appropriate for Matthew, as a Minister of a foreign government, to kneel and be properly dubbed to receive the Knighthood. The Queen of Ladonia gave her opinion that if he was being invested in the [[Order of the Snowflake]] (as opposed to being an honorary knight), then he could, and in fact, should kneel. However, the Grand Duke felt the image of Matthew kneeling before a foreign ruler could potentially damage his political future in Ladonia, so he ultimately decided against the formal investiture ceremony.
