Grand Meeting Hall

The Grand Meeting Hall is a large hall located in Carvay, and is one of the Vastallosi Alliance meeting halls. The structure was built prior to the Alliance, but with the intent of being used for the hopeful Alliance which was established soon after it's construction.

This particular structure was built by 8jaaroud, Doge of Carvay. Carefully decorated, and with each allied nation's banner hanging, and arranged to provide the representative of each nation one seat directly behind their flag. The Grand Meeting Hall has two rows of chairs, a podium, and 2 chairs to the side of the podium. The first row of seats are for the representative of each nation who speaks and votes for each nation, there are currently 8 of these seats with 7 taken by current members of VAWR. The second row of seats is for any member of the Alliance, or guests, to sit and observe. It is typical that members who are not representing their nation to sit in the second row behind their nation's banner.

The podium is meant for the person speaking, whether this person is a representative from a member nation, guest, or the arbiter. Behind the podium, there are two seats, one for the arbiter, and the other for the person who is waiting to speak next. The arbiter is a member of the Alliance, who has vowed to be neutral from their favor towards any nation, and cannot propose or vote on issues, but who's sole duty is to moderate each Assembly of the Alliance. Directly behind the Podium is the head of Baekry, the first Arbiter. It has become custom that whoever is acting Arbiter is to put on the head of Baekry when fullfilling such a role.

Prior to the formation of the Alliance, and when the Grand Meeting Hall was newly finished, it saw it's first official use in the resolution of the 1st V.I.R. Conflict. As President Noodles of the V.I.R. and Infinick of Tlahatl met with 8jaaroud, Doge of Carvay, and Delta and Reelz, kings of Neos Knossos, along with Baekry and Essendor, to sign the Treaty of the Phagosian Sea.

It was later used at it's intended purpose of gathering all nations of (at the time) Alteniquia Minor, to decide if an alliance shall be created at the growing mights of the Eastern Empires, and fear of their influence, power, and colonization attempts. The Alliance was formed to guarantee each nation maintain it's sovereignty, and later on, to officially declare our continent no longer be a part of Alteniquia, and now be named Vastallos.

The Second Assembly of the Vastallosi Alliance of Western Rathnir met at the Grand Meeting Hall, where Cobbleworks Mines was brought into the Alliance as it's 7th member.

Currently the flags of all members of the Alliance, Neos Knossos, Carvay, Kawalapua, Stensta, Tlahatl, Volandia, and Cobbleworks Mines, can be found in the chambers of the Grand Meeting Hall.

This building marks the greatness of Carvay, and it's dedication to diplomacy and friendly relations. When not in use, it draws in many tourists to gaze at its structure and marvel. Feel free to come in an see this historical landmark of both Carvay and the VAWR.
