Molossian Military Academy Reopens. After a year and a half hiatus, the Molossian Military Academy has reopened. The Academy, the only institution of its type online, is dedicated to providing academic military training to those individuals that are involved in or may be seeking a military career, especially in the micronational world. The program is free of charge, and provides a certificate of completion when the course is complete. The course includes testable and non-testable readings, and successful completion involves passing three short examinations, one dealing with an historical battle, one dealing with tactics and one dealing with leadership. The Academy has graduated many students in the past, and this success is expected to continue in the future. The Molossian Military Academy Website can be found here.

Molossian Rock Examined by NASA

A small piece of Molossia has been sent to NASA for examination, as a part of NASA's "Rock Around the World" program. The rock was chosen by Molossian citizen and occasional Benverian, Carson Baugh. It is hoped that this will broaden our knowledge of the Molossian geologic makeup, and enhance our study and awareness of the world around us. The rock and results of NASA's study can be seen here. Although we are not sure exactly what this spectrum represents, we believe it to mean that the rock is basalt, which is volcanic in nature. It is well known that the area of the Great Basin has volcanic origins, so this hypothesis is not unlikely.
