On 6 July 2022, the Ekrina-Catan Accords was finalised between The League and The Rejected Realms, the agreement formalised our longstanding co-operation with TRR and marks a new era in our relationship, on a cultural, diplomatic and military level.
We have some major projects in progress continuing into this month that we look forward to releasing and statements will be released in due time.

The League's Defense Forces Foreign Report
Authored by Quebecshire.
The League's Defense Forces had productive months in June and July, seeing a substantial increase in the success of defensive operations since the start of the month. Generally speaking the military has been successful at repelling tag raiders to the extent that barring a small few updates, only Lily has proven effective in leading raiding operations. Furthermore we had considerable roles in several liberations of small scale raids hosted by Lone Wolves United.
Off the battlefield, we did coordinated training in June with the North Pacific Army and Legio Pacifica to improve fundamental skills for chasing. We are optimistic that the next month will see similar success in a variety of operations.
The General of the League Defense Forces at the time of this report is New Makasta.

Midpoint nominations for the May–July Council term concluded in mid-June 2022, during which, Salisford was re-confirmed to another 1 month term. Zloveshchiy will continue to serve his full two-month term as the Speaker of the Council.
The League established the planned-frontier region of Concord on 14 June 2022, and the region opened to new members on 17 June 2022.
Spode Humbled Minions and Creeperopolis have began running API recruitment for Concord and The League, respectively, in June.
In July, nominations for the July–September 2022 term of the Council of the Republic concluded, and Salisford was selected to serve a two-month term as Speaker of the Council. A total of eight people were confirmed as Council Delegates–seven to two months terms and one to a one month term.

Concord Update
Authored by Ikania.
We are pleased to report that Concord has had a fantastic month for growth. As of this writing, Concord maintains 100 resident nations, with 15 endorsements on Delegate Mechanocracy. A number of recruited Concordians have gone on to join The League and Concord’s discord server, and are contributing to regional activity. The regional message board is relatively active, and the last poll held by Mount Washington received fifteen responses (to a rather frivolous question, at that).
Concord has proven to be a great investment of time and resources. Goals for the next month will be continuing this growth, spurring more RMB conversations, coming up with interesting polls, and getting Concordians more active in Discord, as to help facilitate integration with The League, enhancing The League's unique culture.
Council Foreign Report
Authored by Zloveshchiy.
The Council of the Republic has seen an active month starting with the opening nominations on June 8th, which concluded on June 13th and saw Salisford continuing service with another half-term to the Council. Mid-way through the month the Council had a discussion on the advantages of establishing a formal cultural office, which is expected to result in legislation in the future.
Another critical policy choice discussed was the creation of a second region under The League's jurisdiction to be used as an eventual frontier. The plan, after some debate, was ultimately supported and enacted through the region Concord as described by a Consulate Order on the subject.
Authored by Salisford
The Council has been relatively in July. Early in the month, on the 2nd, the outgoing members of the 20th Council discussed how to properly hold the confirmation vote for Council nominees in both The League and the recently-founded frontier of Concord.
On the 7th, nominations were opened for the incoming 21st Council. And on the 13th the confirmation vote was held. The 21st Council is made up of: Salisford, Ajakanistan, Reykanes, Ikania (Saint Laurent), SPode humbleD Minions (Mechanocracy), DinoNet, New Makasta, and Tim. On the 15th, following a brief period of vacancy left by Zloveshchiy’s departure from the Council, Salisford was selected as Speaker of the Council.
The Speaker of the Council at the time of this report is Salisford.
