Voodoo Nova Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 (edited) IAA has been going through some important changes these last two weeks. Both of which I am announcing today. First is our new charter. When you compare the previous charter to our current one, you'll see that we've shortened it and clarified many points as well. Declaration of Empire- Imperial Assault Alliance Charter Preamble The Imperial Assault Alliance (IAA) is an alliance dedicated to the fundamental qualities of security, safety, prosperity, and camaraderie. Founded in earnest and in good faith, we hereby solemnly dedicate this Charter to the continuation of our ideals and sovereignty. The Empire does hereby reserve the right to take diplomatic or martial action in any sort of situation that arises, whether the situation is foreign or domestic, that we feel infringes upon the sovereignty, freedom, or rights of others, and whose aforementioned sovereignty, freedom, and rights we deem necessary or correct to defend. Article I: Structure of the Alliance The Imperial Senate - Once a nation is accepted into the Imperial Assault Alliance, that member nation obtains the title of Imperial Senator where they automatically have a seat in the Imperial Senate and will be responsible for participating in alliance-wide votes. This includes, but isn't limited to, votes such as Votes of No Confidence, treaties and declarations of war. A 66%+1 majority in favor will pass all votes except declarations of wars. A ¾ majority in favor will pass a declaration of war that does not involve a treaty partner. The rights of the Senate shall be detailed in "Basic Rights of the Imperial Senate". The Imperial Government - The Imperial Government is made up of His Imperial Majesty, the Emperor, and his Imperial Ruling Council, which consists of the Grand Vizier, the Imperial Regent, the Grand Admiral, the Grand Moff, and the Imperial Exchequer whose respective deputies serve within as lesser-ranking members of the Council. Imperial Regent is head of foreign affairs for the alliance. The Grand Admiral is in charge of the Imperial Military. The Grand Moff is in charge of the internal affairs of the alliance. The Imperial Exchequer is in charge of the economics of the alliance. The Grand Vizier is the second in command of the alliance and in the Emperor's absence will take his place. Individual government member's responsibility shall be detailed in "The Responsibilities of the Imperial Government". Article II: The Imperial Government His Imperial Majesty, the Emperor - The sovereign Head of State of the Imperial Assault Alliance, His Majesty the Emperor maintains order over the Imperial Ruling Council. He retains veto rights over any treaty. He maintains the ability to issue executive orders, as well as grant pardons during judiciary proceedings that can only be overturned by a majority vote of the Ruling Council. Should the Emperor be deemed unable to execute his duties properly for any reason, he may be impeached by a majority vote of the Ruling Council, as well as a 66%+1 majority vote by the Imperial Senate. Should the Emperor be replaced, whether by resignation or by impeachment, he shall appoint someone to take his place. The new appointee must be approved by the senate 66%+1 in favor of his appointment. The Imperial Ruling Council - All Imperial Ruling Council members are appointed and fired by the Emperor at his discretion, and each individual member of the Ruling Council retains the right to the same privilege over his own deputies. All appointed IRC members must be approved by the senate with a 66%+1 majority. In addition, all Ruling Council members have the right to create additional Deputy-level positions in their own ministry, though these positions will not be official members of Imperial government. There shall be one official deputy per Council member. Article III: Additions to the Charter Charter Amendments may be proposed by any member, at any time, in the Imperial Situation Room. If the Grand Vizier deems the proposition has gained significant weight through discussion, he may post it for a full vote of the Imperial Senate in the Convocation Chambers, a vote to last 48 hours. The amendment passes if it garners a 66%+1 majority in favor. Our next announcement is a somber one. When an alliance signs a treaty, certain levels of the relationship must be there and must be maintained. When the relationship begins to falter at any of the levels, whether it be the leadership or membership, there needs to be a change to reflect that lessened relationship. For this reason, the IAA and Invicta have chosen to mutually downgrade our MDoAP to an ODP in order to better reflect our true relationship with hopes that it will get better and become stronger in the future.

Inserting obligatory "Blame Locke/Azu-nyan" Not even going to beat around the bush. Charter looks nice, pretty and small. No tl;dr's really necessary for that one. Congrats IAA and whatnot.

KahlanRahl Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 (edited) Hopefully this charter will hit the money? Congrats and stuff I guess. Also sucks about Invicta. Guess that makes sense, since Locke was pretty much the linchpin in that hole thing. edit: homonyms ftl.

Locke Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 http://cybernations.wikia.com/wiki/Space_H..._Eye_Beams_Pact Sad day when I have to do that to a treaty page between such great alliances. I do hope you can work beyond any temporary setbacks in the relationship and have enough of one to warrant a mutual agreement again. Don't make me come over there and fix things for you.

TheListener Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 Fixing things would be fine by me locke, but you has to be in a different alliance this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haflinger Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 Good luck to IAA. And no, it's not just because Locke left Invicta; there've been a few changes at IAA as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uralica Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 It sucks when relations decline. Still, I have great faith that both IAA and Invicta will resolve their differences in time. As for the charter, well, congratulations. Obligatory Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
