[img]https://i.ibb.co/z2W9j5p/TNPV-New-Cleves.jpg[/img] [color=red][size=200]The Finals[/size][/color] [box] Hosts: Empress Anne of Cleves III & Heir-Apparent Anne of Cleves IV Venue: Ashkenzic International Music Stadium Time: 5:00 PM [/box] Anne of Cleves III: Welcome, nations of the Pacific, welcome to TNPV XIX! Me and my sister, Anne of Cleves IV will be hosting this edition in Ashkenzic International Music Stadium, in New Cleves! Anne of Cleves IV: For those of you who don’t know, Ashkenzic was the name of my father and my elder sister’s stepfather. He was from the now nonexistent nation of Bala Mantre. He would be proud to know that we, the monarchy of the Clevesian Empire, are finally hosting TNPV!!!! [i]*loud applause*[/i] Anne of Cleves III: Indeed he would! Speaking of which, if you haven’t read the factbook, you might not know why we are hosting. After all, the government of the Province of Ihese within the lands of Republica Guilleana was supposed to be hosting this time around. Alas, that’s not the case. [i]*gasps from the audience*[/i] Anne of Cleves III: If any of you are confused right now or have simply forgotten what happened, we have put together a small video about it. Enjoy!
