[quote name='Haflinger' timestamp='1288701979' post='2499809'] This is actually backwards. War increases the number of alliances in the sanction race, at least when it affects the larger sanctioned alliances, 'cause then the add line drops. [/quote] I think his point was that we need war.

THE LAST REPUBLIC We have formed a brotherhood based on the philosophy that openness and persistence will prevail. Our ability to work together, to embrace change and to enjoy the process of building our future has revived our minds and spirits. There is a new day starting for us as we move ahead together, bound by similar values, aspirations and goals. Our Charter, which will be our guide, was a collective work born from the accumulation of ideas and energy brought to the table by the founders of The Last Republic. It is a document which will inspire and guide our voyage into the unknown. It will be our vision and it will be the compass throughout our journey.[/center] [quote] [center]The Grand Charter of “The Last Republic” [img]http://i942.photobucket.com/albums/ad263/Jharius_II/Flag15.png[/img] “Anima de Aquila” May you have the strength Of eagles' wings, The faith and courage to Fly to new heights, And the wisdom Of the universe To carry you there. PREAMBLE We the nations of The Last Republic are united in purpose and brotherhood. We believe that the success of The Last Republic depends on the success of each member. Our pledge is to support each members’ growth so our alliance prospers and achieves its goals. Together we are strong.[/center] Article I: Membership A. All Nations of The Last Republic must swear to abide by The Charter. Every member is bound by The Charter to protect, serve, and respect all member Nations of The Last Republic. B. Members wishing to join must not be: ----- a. Listed as a target by any alliance. ----- b. Members of another alliance. ----- c. Involved in any war(s). C. Membership will be granted based on a review of the applicant by the Admissions Department. Article II: Values A. Discipline [color=red]"Discipline is the soul of an army. It makes small numbers formidable, procures success to the weak." – George Washington[/color] Discipline is a state of order and obedience. It involves the ready subordination of the will of the individual for the good of the group.We need discipline in all that we do. Whether it is hitting a baseball, climbing a mountain, playing a musical instrument, making good grades or brushing your teeth it all comes down to a matter of discipline. Having discipline increases your chance of success, and therefore, The Last Republic's success. B. Integrity [color=red]"To know what is right and not do it is the worst cowardice." - Confucius[/color] Integrity resides in the ability to constitute yourself as your word, to be true to your principles, and ultimately, be true to yourself. Integrity gives us to have the courage and that confidence to do what is right. Or rather do the right thing in the face of possible adversity. C. Unity [color=red]"Whatever may be the issue we shall share one common danger, one safety." - Virgil[/color] The definition of the word unity is being bonded together and residing peacefully. It also means acting as one. Unity of our brotherhood will increase our strength of purpose. We will move forward collectively and reach our goals together. D. Respect [color=red]"Respect yourself and others will respect you." - Confucius[/color] Respect means being treated with consideration and esteem and to be willing to treat people similarly. It means to have a regard for other peoples’ feelings, listening to people and hearing them, giving them one’s full attention. Even more importantly, respect means treating people the way you would like to be treated.
