The Quill Selects the Next World Government

When thinking about New Years resolutions, and the fact that we’re going weekly. We decided to look at The Quills from the past to see how they managed to produce papers not twice a month but once EVERY week.

We figured this would be a great way to both start off the new year with our own ideal New World Order, and give you a glimpse from the Quills of the past.
