 Berm Releases Next Year’s Administrative Council Appointments

After weeks of careful planning and coordination, the Berm has released his plans for the appointments of next year’s ministries, departments, committees, and councils. The Berm has also been coordinating the next major government shifts with the Governors of the various regional legislatures. One such major plan the Berm means to put into effect in next year’s annual Federal Conference is the removal of the Orcistan War Special Council which has dealt with the effects of the Orcistan war for a decade. Due to a decline in Orc raids and large scale invasions, the Berm no longer sees any need for an executive Special Council to deal with the war. Instead, he opts to move the Orcistan war efforts to the War Committee which is currently dealing with other minor conflicts throughout Hermistan.

Under pressure from the Great Hermlake Legislature, the Berm also plans to make a new Duff Herm Trade Ministry to handle the rising skepticism of the morality of the Duff Herm trade and to try to make the system more equitable. This Ministry that Himzoo Herm has been tentatively nominated to lead also has the intention of reestablishing the northern Duff Herm Trade from Eri Hermistan and bringing more Duff Herms to the ever increasing Ba Herm population. For now, this Ministry is planned to be in the jurisdiction of the Walizburg Legislature and its governor, but as HermPost reporter Hoobawheat says, “This matter could be subject to change since it all depends on what the Herms in the government chose to decide … If it is not popular enough among next year’s legislatures, it might not even get formed at all.”

Furthermore, another reporter made the argument that the Hermlake delegates which currently number 214 (38% of the entire Federal Conference) may not be in support of forming a Walizburg Ministry for the Ministry that they pressured the Berm to form in the first place. 

Additionally, the Cottage Legislature also requested the reformation of the Department of Industry as a council because last time the Department was in operation it increased Cottage Herms’ yields by an average of four percent. Recently, yields have further decreased due to an extra dry summer which makes Herms wish that they could still get that extra four percent. The Berm has not made any statement on this, so it is yet to be seen if such a council will be formed or not.

  Homeless Duff Herm Guild Protests Against Large Scale Advertisement The HDHG, the largest free Duff Herm organization in the country, have begun nationwide protests, some revolving into uncontrollable mobs, that have gathered in the country’s largest cities to protest big advertisements and billboards. The Department of Emergency Management says that, “Two hundred billboards worth a grand total of 1,900 Herm Dollars were destroyed by protesters.” While the Department (which is largely run by members of the HDHG) discusses their next move, the Homeless Duff Herm Guild has started a massive mobilization of militias across the country. The leaders of the guild have been silent about their intentions, but the members of the militias believe that they are needed to protect Hermistan from some unknown external threat. Currently, around a thousand Duff Herms march to the border of the Umbucci Clan of Stanistan, leading them is legendary General Jim Kurt.  One HermPost reporter ...

  Herm In Walizburg Invents Flapjack Dispenser In Walizburg, the region that has already made such notable inventions as the double salt shaker which could dispense two different kinds of salt by just pressing one button, a young Herm craftsman and his Eri Herm apprentices invented a creation that may go down in history as a Duff Herm’s flappyjakiest toy: the Flapjack dispenser! This new innovation has already won awards from many different Herm science institutes for its clever use of mechanics and levers. Currently, two hundred copies have been made, and a hundred and eighty-two have been sold for 4 Herm Dollars and 15 cents to a throng of lucky Herms who happened to walk past the store by chance when they were going out to do their daily chores in the city and couldn’t resist buying their Duff Herms this wonderful late Christmas present.  After all the publicity from the various local newspapers, the new invention attracted many rich Herms who were eager to buy the orig...

  HDHG Suspected of Illicit Activity When one Herm, a resident of Pozny, received a letter that he had acquired a vacant plot near the center of town, he did not know whether to be frightened or happy. He ignored the letter, dismissing it as spam, but more and more just kept coming. Stubbornly, he continued to ignore the letters, until, around a week after the letters had started coming, he received a letter from the Mayor’s Office saying that the lot was poorly kept and evidence suggested it belonged to a hoarder, and, that unless he took care of his property, the City Council was going to fine him for neglect of property. Confused, the Herm went to the clerk of the Mayor’s Office and asked if they had, in fact, sent that letter. To his surprise, according to the City’s records, he had owned the property for eleven years now. Understandably, a lot left untended for eleven years would definitely show signs of neglect. Upon finding himself in the center of the City by chance the ...
