Follow on Google News | America Celebrates as Norton XIII Assumes ThroneEnding a 133-year interregnum, Norton XIII, Emperor of These United States, begins his reign on Monday.

Knapp declares and proclaims himself Norton XIII in his inaugural decree, skipping 12 imperial numerators "to resolve and clarify the situation vis a vis prior pretenders to the succession ... in the simplest manner possible." Making a clean sweep of old institutions, His Majesty has decreed a move of the national capital from San Francisco, California to Florida. He's also given the existing placeholder federal government a little less than three weeks notice to dissolve, simultaneously reclaiming assets temporarily held in custody by that regime and voiding its debts in advance of his reign.
