    Preamble:

    After many loveless dates, and nights in separate beds, the Verdant and Green United Empire (VAGUE) and the Sentries of All Things Purple (SOAP) decide to push the beds together and make some babies!!!!

    Article I: Friendship

    This being a friendship pact, this is the most important article. Both signatories agree to treat each other with respect and courtesy. This means no name calling, Flaming, Flame baiting, and all that other stuff that is commonly looked down upon by the CN population.

    Article II: Intelligence

    Both signatories agree to share any sensitive information that affects, or could possibly affect the other signatory or her allies

    Article II - Non Aggression

    Both VAGUE and SOAP agree to not fight with each other, either alone or with buddies. VAGUE and SOAP agree to talk out all differences in the proper way. This means in private channels and not in shouting matches on the OWF.

    Article III - Aid, Advice and Support

    VAGUE and SOAP agree to offer any aid be it money or military whenever possible, though it is not mandatory for either to do so. VAGUE and SOAP also agree to offer assistance in the form of advice be it in foreign or internal affairs, if it is requested

    Article IV - Non Espionage

    Spais are FAIL so we don’t use them against each other

    Article V – Optional Defense

    Both VAGUE and SOAP are expected but not required to defend the other signatory through direct military action and financial backing if the other signatory is in a state of defensive war, or being attacked by rouges or tech raiders and requests the other signatory to enter and assist it.

    Article VII - Withdrawal

    Should either alliance wish to end the above agreement, a notice must be given to the other signatory Alliance. After this, both signatories will pursue a 48 hours grace period, in which they will undertake no actions that go against the nature of this agreement.

    Signed for VAGUE,

    Draeg, Jade Emissary

    Facade, Imperial Commissioner

    YM, General of the Armies

    Chiefcrazyhorse of The Chosen One, Emperor of SOAP

    An Announcement Of Existance

    in Alliance Politics

    Posted · Edited by Facade

    Facade walks up to the podium, with a new flag behind him flying between other prominent flags of cybernations

    Ahem, time for a long and boring speech, bear with me.

    Four score and seven days ago, two blokes walked into a bar. The blokes were from different countries, but became friends nonetheless. After a series of blunders and stupid questions they came up with VAGUE, the Verdant And Green United Empire. After a long group of setbacks, coffee spills and miss-prints, the Charter was finally created. Next, the blokes had to find people to run VAGUE, so they went out to a few other bars and found a few more blokes to run VAGUE. The first two blokes were coming home from one such bar and got in a car accident and left the Cyberverse forever. This is the mess they left behind for us:

    The Constitution of the Verdant And Green United Empire

    final_flag-1.jpg

    crest1-2.png

    Preface

    That the governments existing at present ought to be abolished, so that liberty, equality, and fraternity should no longer be empty words but become living realities, and that all forms of government as yet tried have only been so many forms of oppression and ought to be replaced by a new form of grouping will be agreed by all who have a brain and a temperament ever so revolutionary.

    We, the People and Nations of the Cyberverse, do here-by proclaim the formation of the Verdant And Green United Empire, to build a safe and secure society, to be up-held by the honor and courage of it’s loyal citizens.

    Chapter I – Entrance

    1.) Does not belong to another Alliance

    Chapter II – Structure

    Section III- The Jade Emissary

    1.) The Jade Emissary is in charge of all of the Empire’s foreign affairs.

    2.) They must not only create but also maintain communication and friendship with other alliances in war, peace and times of crisis.

    3.) The Jade Emissary assists in the writing, proposal, and acceptance of treaties with the Empire and her associates.

    4.) Appoints diplomats

    Some decide for a government elected by universal suffrage in the state or in the commune…

    Article II – The Emerald Council

    Section I –Duties of the Council

    2.) Citizens may bring any questions, suggestions, pleas, or advice to the Council to propose to the Scions.

    2.) Any Citizen may nominate any other Citizen to become a Councilor (minimum of 2 nominations)

    …others decide on a revolutionary dictatorship.

    2.)Ministers are placed in charge of a certain department under the correct Scion and are responsible for the maintenance and progress of their specific department

    3.)They act as aids to the Scions, helping them to maintain the Imperial Government by sharing the workload and reporting back to their Scion..

    4.)Ministers may also voice their opinions in Council affairs but may not vote.

    2.) The chief duty of the Imperial Regent is to oversee recruitment and acceptance throughout the Empire.

    2.) The Body Republic also may be asked by the Scions to vote on other matters pertaining to the Empire as a whole.

    3.) In addition, The Body Republic is a place for general discussion amongst the Citizens of the Empire.

    In fact, universal suffrage, when it is quite free, can only produce, at best, an assembly which represents the average of the opinions which at the time a re held by the mass of the people.

    Chapter III – Rights of a Citizen

    Article I – Every Citizen of the Empire has the right to speak freely and express themselves on the forum. But, if a Citizen speaks in a way meant to troll or flame another Citizen or friendly Alliance, they will be punished according to the content of their message.

    Article II – The right to make war and/or spy operations on any unaligned or unprotected nation will be up held by the Empire so long as:

    1.) The member first request permission and receives it from either the General of the Armies or the Liaison Officer

    2.) The nation does not lie on the red trading sphere

    Article III – The right of a Citizen to leave the Empire, without penalty, at any time stands. However, it must meet these requirements:

    1. A state of war or heightened alert does not exist.

    2. The soldier has fulfilled any military or financial obligations imposed on them by the Empire.

    3. The soldier has not engaged in any acts of sabotage or espionage against the Empire or its allies.

    4. The soldier has formally announced their resignation in the appropriate section of this forum.

    In the event the above requirements are not met the Scions may, at their sole discretion, impose any penalty they deem proper upon the departing Citizen, including demanding repayment of aid received within the period of 60 days prior to the date of their departure and reserving the right to wage war on said Citizen.

    Article IV- Expulsion

    1.) Any Citizen may propose for the expulsion of another citizen at any time.

    2.) After 48 hours, either a majority Triumvirate or Council vote can expel the citizen.

    One does not need to be much of an innovator to arrive at this conclusion...

    Article V – Expectations of all Citizens

    1.) All Citizens are expected to be as active as they can, for the good of the Empire as a whole. Inactivity can only be excused when given prior warning and clear justification.

    2.) All Citizens are expected to be prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice for the Empire, when we fight, we fight together and we fight to the death.

    3.) Citizens are also expected to treat each other and others in the Cyberverse, with respect and refrain from flaming or tolling.

    Of course people now blame the men, the individuals for this; but it was not the men who were the cause for this failure-it was the system.

    Chapter IV – Amendments

    Section I – If the Scions wish an Amendment to be made, they must present the Amendment to the People’s Council. Only if a unanimous vote of support is made, can the Amendment be presented to the Body republic. There it must gain a two-thirds majority in order to be passed and the Constitution can be amended.

    Section II – If a Citizen or Council member wish an Amendment to be made, he/she must present it to the People’s Council. Only if a unanimous vote of support is made, can the Amendment be presented to the Scion. At least two of the three Scions must support the Amendment in order for the Amendment to pass and the Constitution to be amended.
