Tommorow is a New Day

[Matt Kovac]

Fellow Ocians, at home, and around the world

Here, on territories on both worlds Ocians drew a new nation onto the political maps of two worlds. Almost two years ago a new nation joined the community-Ocia, the homeland of Ocians and all those who are around it today. Ocia is a nation which has recently seen some times which have been considered volatile to say the least. There has been nothing but rhetoric and accusations flying back and forth, and our once strong federation of freedom republics is no more. Today I wish to pledge before you a promise which is under our oath, that we will remain strong and maintain our democratic ideals and we will endeavor to push forward and remain free under a policy of brotherhood and unity. What we have seen, what I have seen, is a group of politicians (including myself) who are too proud, too arrogant and too power-hungry to embrace bilateralism and begin the process of national reconciliation. We must begin to learn from our history and work together to rebuild our nation and achieve the goals of prosperity, freedom, and unity, these are the things I will be personally working to achieve. I will not however, use a person or a group of people as scapegoats to blame all of our problems on because there are many of us (including myself) who have caused us to be in the situation in which we have found ourselves in, but above all there are people who have worked tirelessly to make the Federation a unique nation like no other, and to these people may they be an Ocian in the east or the west I owe my sincere thanks and well wishes to. Tomorrow is a new day, tomorrow is the day that competent leaders and not hypocrites lead our proud nation. We must look upon our past and find the traits that brought us all, east and west, together. Our creativity, diverse population and great ideas are what made the Federation a great place. I’d like to quote the words I said almost two years ago:

“Small yet Diverse. Our Ocia, is very much its own.
Its Mountains reach for the sky, and its sea extends into the areas
of the World. The beat of the city leaves a freshness to fields of green.
The people are bound-moving, creative and kind, such is Ocia.”

Today we must reflect back and note what we both released and realized two years ago, that is- the positive energy created by Ocians about the idea of a united Ocia.

Ocians east and west,

There are places and great nations on Micras and Aura that bear in them many layers of time and brilliant micronational history, yet the sheer power of one single day, one evening or night can inscribe a new idea, feeling, vibe or energy into our memories forever. Perhaps that night was the night in which new nations joined us and formed a Federation, the Ocian Federation. I stand convinced that all of us, no matter how much bitterness the recent volatile situation brought upon us, remember the sheer pride when we proclaimed the decision on the micronational stage to be a Federation of indivisible unity. Today we stand divided, but here in the Democratic Republic of Ocia we stand ready to rebuild this great national sprit and pride and reform this great nation, this memory will live on in the future.


Peace, partnership and cooperation - they are only possible among those who know who they are. If a nation has no image of itself, of what it wants and what it would like to achieve, what others expect of it, then its relations with the world, with its neighbors are tense, immersed in doubt and suspicion, pressured by the burdens of history, submission and intimidation. A lack of self-confidence, self-respect and pride are at the root of such action. We must work towards these so called cornerstone goals.

Tonight, though perhaps discouraged by recent events we must see this as an opportunity to learn from our mistakes and to move onwards to achieve the bright new and creative national goals we have set ahead.

Ocian Friends,

Today new dreams are allowed, tomorrow is new day. Ocia is Ours.
