A new Saimoe government was called at the start of July, and as a result, the 2020 International Saimoe League is in full swing. Saimoe Prime Minister Violet Evergarden has been tasked with a very difficult book to write: the story of man vs. Coronavirus in the year 2020, a pandemic that has stopped the world. A worthy successor will need to be found to replace her, and a similar champion will be needed to replace Deputy Saimoe Prime Minister Rimuru Tempest.
