Morality is realtive to those in power as well as set by the those in power. To question it means almost certian death.

Another good read. I won't however comment on the correctness, but it is interesting to see GATO mentioned. You remind me of Vincent_Xander, but without the tarnished reputation of an alliance behind you.

Brilliant fellow GATOans!

Indeed. Very cool! Nearing 500 members too...

A man is likely to mind his own business when it is worth minding. When it is not, he takes his mind off his own meaningless affairs by minding other people's business. - Eric Hoffer
Most tend to simply mind the business of NPO, thus a great reason for so many threads concerning them. However as many have already stated, power is only a temporary state. Dispite some flaws in the absolute power, still a wonderful read. It has been quite some time since something worth reading or debating has been posted on these forums.

Good luck in your future ventures, though withdraw from BUTT is not very conducive to future success in the brown sphere.

While I was only here for 1 of those listed, I can say I have worked tirelessly to help my fellow GATOans move forward from the old. Admission of fault is the only way to advance. Congrats on our second birthday!

Global Alliance and Treaty Organization Announcement
Public Statement of a Condemnation
We regretfully are here to announce that former General Assembly member Sparten (http://www.cybernations.net/nation_drill_d...Nation_ID=44745) has been removed from the ranks as of December 26th, 2007 from the Global Alliance and Treaty Organization General Assembly. His intent of going nuclear rogue breaks the unwritten code between alliances which exists in order to maintain peace. His actions are not sanctioned by The Global Alliance and Treaty Organization, and will not be tolerated. Henceforth Spartan is an enemy of GATO, any alliance or nation of which he attacks may request help from GATO and we will comply. The nations of the Global Alliance and Treaty Organization do not support the unwarranted usage of nuclear weapons, nor does it support aggressive unwarranted attacks upon nations or alliances.
On Behalf of the Assembly Chairman, and the General Assembly,
BarbulaM1 Deputy Assemby Chairman
EDIT TITLE: Rogue*

o/ Los Gatos!

Never the less, congrats to us all!

It is my belief that any breach of terms without the alliance who's members broke them attempting to reprimand those who knowingly broke the terms, is indeed in fault. Speaking as a former minister for GATO during post-GWIII just as the terms expired, trust me it is indeed possible. FAN, as an alliance you could have prevented this. As for Leftwingliberal, I would suggest some restraint on your part while flying the GATO AA.

Congrats to our friends!
Hail Atlantis!
Hail Viridia!

Between numbers 2 and 3. I do not favor absolutism, since I am an advocate democracy. However, with the options presented a Republic with out a head leader is not something I would advocate since an alliance does need some direction from lead figures. Allowing members say within an alliance is a method of moral boast and high government activity rate with the general members. But having them also elect their leaders. as many alliance on CN have shifted towards, allows for even greater activity, but with the downside of the possible lame duck ruler. Still the leader is allowed to make quick decisions in most cases, but still does run an almost entirely republican system.
John Locke is the best.

Congrats to our old friends at ODN!

An Announcement from the Global Alliance and Treaty Organization
The Global Alliance and Treaty Organization are proud to present this treaty of Mutual Defense with the New Order of Independence, our great allies of the brown sphere.
The Chocolate Covenant
Preamble - Recognizing that the New Order of Independence (NOI) and the Global Alliance and Treaty Organization (GATO) both aim for the continued peace and prosperity of their member nations, and that a pact of mutual defense is beneficial to both alliances, NOI and GATO herein agree to the following terms:
Article I - Upon ratification of this Covenant by both parties, this doctrine of mutual defense will be perpetually binding and effective immediately, unless one of the signatories participates, or has nations participate, in hostile military action against the other. Should one of the signatories find any reason to terminate this Covenant, they must inform the other four days prior to any military action being taken against that alliance. Mutual defense shall not be limited to military matters.
Article II - If either signatory is attacked by a third party without just cause or provocation, the attacked signatory has the option of formally requesting assistance from the other. Such an attack will be regarded as an attack on both signatories. Failure to respond to a formal request of assistance is grounds for immediate dissolution of the Covenant.
Conclusion
Conclusion - This Covenant and its statutes are hereby entered into law for both signatory parties.
Signed,
Global Alliance and Treaty Organization
Arciel, Assembly Chairman
Kevlar, Minister of Foreign Affairs
10th Congress of GATO
New Order of Independence
Arturion, High Chancellor
Mahasoor, High Chancellor
Kalus, Minister of Reese's Pieces

Pyroman, Minister of Hot Tamales
Stealth assasain, minister of 100 Grand Bars

It is current policy of GATO to hold any former Legion nation applying for admission until we have gotten or they personally (able to be proved) have gotten the clearance to leave. I suggest other alliances do the same.
-
As the Deputy AC of GATO I commend you for your patience, also I must reiterates our full support for the actions by the OTF alliance.
-
Totally epic.

Can you make that sentence a bit more awkward?
Yeah that was an odd sentence, lets try...
The Global Alliance and Treaty Organization supports the OTF Alliance in this annoucement. We hold alliance soverignty close to our hearts and believe the OTF Alliance's soverignty has been infriged by the "name stealers" as well as the close to name stealers.
Anyways, brilliant move OTF.

Being from an alliance with a long history of eloquent speakers at its helm, I do of course support the long and drawn out. A document with true meaning, one that you can delve into for legal reasons is a real treaty. Real politics, asshatery politics is out, I have put my suit and tie back on in this post war era to approach foreign and internal politics with a zeal and eloquence.
Tl;dr should only be made as a supplement to a treaty's announcement to help some better understand what the treaty is, but not in the treaty itself, as the treaty itself is a legal document binding two alliances together and should be written in a proper and loophole free way.

Well arn't we just

We simply like to dress out in the open. It is liberating and free (we love freedom).... so maybe in trouble for indecent exposure. Certainly didn't need to see Arciel dressing outside a dressing room.
