[Network of Protected Nations needs a Protectorate]

Yeah, you'll probably have to wait a lil while for our Leaders to decide on if they should accept or not.

[Network of Protected Nations needs a Protectorate]

My pleasure. The Legion stands tall with her many allies, including the Sparta, NPO, Valhalla, MASH, IRON, and much more.

We're currently ranked 34th, but I assure you, we are a proud, and honored Alliance, for we are ANCIENT in CN terms, and we were neck to neck with NPO once. We will gladly call those that shed blood with us brothers.

We are ANCIENT in CN terms.

We have a lot of history, and a lot of seasoned members.

We offer $3,000,000 in AID if you pass our open book exam with 70% or higher, and your nation is under 1000 NS.

Article I: Government

Section 1: Government Structure

There are 3 branches of Government: the Consulate, the Senate, and the House of Representatives. The highest power is the Consulate, followed by the Senate, the House of Representatives, and finally the membership.

Section 2: The Consulate

There are 5 Consulate members that function as the executive branch: The Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Minister of Defense, the Minister of Internal Affairs, the Minister of Economics, and Speaker of the House. These 5 make policy for the alliance and manage their areas of expertise and their respective departments. The 5 Consulate members all have equal power. All declarations of war and treaty approvals must have a 3/5 majority to become effective. They assume all powers not defined by the other branches.

Section 2a: Selection of the Consulate

The initial 5 Consuls will be appointed by Viceroy Z'ha'dum, with the input of the general membership. Following this, the Consulate must face a confirmation vote every 2 months from the House of Representatives which they must pass with a 3/5 majority or greater. The confirmation vote will last for 72 hours. Should they fail this confirmation vote, the Senators will select a new Consul by nominations and a majority vote among themselves. Consuls reserve the right to resign at anytime and to appoint a replacement from the Senate. Appointment of a replacement will take no more than 72 hours.

Section 3: The Senate

The Senate consists of heads of various areas, as appointed by the Consulate. These appointments include, but are not limited to: the Director of Intelligence, Director of Communications, Director of Game Mechanics, Director of Education, and Director of Recruitment.

Section 4: The House of Representatives

The House consists of 6 members which are elected by the general membership. The 6 members select a Speaker of the House. This selection will take no more 72 hours.

Section 4a: The Speaker of the House

The Speaker of the House's job is communication of ideas between the membership and the Government. The Speaker becomes a Consul and is the People’s eye on the upper echelons of the government. However, the Speaker cannot vote in confirmation votes and no confidence votes.

Section 4b: Votes of No Confidence

Any member of the House of Representatives has the right to initiate a vote of no confidence in a Senator or Consulate member at anytime. A representative is limited to one vote of no confidence a month. If the vote to remove is equal to or greater than 4/5, the designated Senator or Consul shall be removed from office. The voting will take place over 72 hours. Should a Consul be removed, the Senate will vote for a replacement from among themselves. Should a Senator be removed, the Consulate will select a replacement from the general membership.

Section 4c: Selections of Representatives

Elections for Representatives will occur every 3 months. These elections will take place over the period of one week. If the Speaker is not re-elected, the House will select a new one. A member may not be in the Senate and in the House at the same time.

ii)In the event that a representative become inactive for a period greater than a week the remaining representatives may hold a removal vote and call a bi-election to replace the inactive representative.

Section 5: The Judiciary

Crimes that will be taken to trial include: Corruption, Disobeying Orders, Fraud, Espionage, Knowingly False Accusation of Crimes, and Conspiracy to Commit a Crime. Anyone accused of a crime will be temporarily relieved of power until the end of a trial so as to prevent continued crimes or manipulation of the House in the trial.

Section 5a: Judiciary Procedures

Justices shall have the authority to determine appropriate punishments for any infraction at their own discretion. Both Plaintiff and Defendant shall represent themselves, presenting whatever evidence they feel pertains to the case at hand. The Defendant is presumed to be innocent until proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt. All evidence and/or witnesses gathered by either party must be submitted to the Justices for approval. A trial shall follow this order: The Plaintiff may make an opening statement, followed by the Defendant's opening statement. The Plaintiff may then examine any desired witnesses, and the Defendant may cross-examine them. After all witnesses and evidence has been exhausted, the Plaintiff and Defendant may make their closing statements. The Justices will then retire to their private chambers to deliberate. The ruling may be handed down according to the opinion of the majority of the Justices. The Justices are the sole determining authority on when constructive testimony has been exhausted and may close the trial when they are satisfied such testimony has been completed. If a Justice is accused of a crime they shall be tried by a panel of the remaining Justices.
