Shirerithian Olympic Preparation Continues

Preparations for the Micronational Olympic games continue apace in the Imperial Republic of Shireroth, as the Committee gears up for the expected flood of nations and citizens willing to participate.

Tiegismo Hoy believes in and aims to spread the Tiegist principle of intermicronationalism that the Republic of Baracão has always held dear. Under this principle, readers are urged to lobby their government to take part and to get their respective Sports / Culture / Foreign ministries to head over to the Intermicronational Olympics Committee in Shireroth and sign up. The Republic of Baracão's government will shortly begin discussions with the Committee, and el Presidente has already expressed his personal interest, both through the Frente Popular and to the Committee itself.

It is also hoped that this newspaper will provide the best coverage of the events, which so far include:

· Yahoo Reversi
· Yahoo Checkers
· Yahoo Chess
· 100 Meter Run
· Shot Put (with Tennis Ball)
· Discus (with Frisbee)
