Zoot Zoot Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 (edited) [center][IMG]http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb144/zoot_zoot/Union-Jack.jpg[/IMG][/center] It gives me great please to announce the Union of Great Britain of Maine into the Commonwealth of England and Maine. After years of a steadfast relationship and a close partnership on and off the battlefield. Maine has been one of Englands closest allies and together have forged a strong cultural and economic impact on eachothers societies. All treaties we both hold will be transferred to this unified nation. Should changes occur, nations will be informed through standard cancellation clauses, however this is not likley. [quote]Great Britain – Democratic People’s Republic of Maine Act of Union Preamble: In recognition of our common goals, the need for mutual defense and the close relation between us, we the people of Great Britain and the Democratic People’s Republic of Maine hereby announce this act of union combining our respective states. Article 1: The land formerly known as Great Britain will be ruled by a King. The land formerly known as the Democratic People’s Republic of Maine will be ruled by a Governor General. Both the King and Governor General shall be equal in position and status. Each is individually allowed to sign accords however a move to engage in war shall require permission from both the King and the Governor General. Article 2: The executive and military of both states will be unified in a central executive and a central military. Article 3: The legislative of the former states shall remain independent. Article 4: Should the King and/or Governor General find this act of union to be against the will of the people it can be dissolved at any time.

Michael McBride Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 [b]***OFFICIAL IMPERIAL STATEMENT***[/b] Relations with both Maine and England had been improving up until this point in time. All borders are closed to this new Commonwealth, and diplomatic contact will, from this point forward, consist only of us collect calling you and speaking only if you accept the charges. We cannot believe that a North American nation, one who seemed to be ruled by persons vastly more intelligent than those of the former Idaho-Montana, would willingly put themselves under the yoke of European colonialism once again. Has the world lost all of their history text books? Have you forgotten that England ruled the North American east coast with oppression for centuries until thousands of brave men spilled their blood so that they would never again have to swear allegiance to the crown? The only thing we will allow through our borders are citizens who know what freedom really is and wish to continue living in it. To the leadership of Maine... it is hard to believe you ever called yourself an American nation. Whores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoot Zoot Posted March 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 The people of Maine owe no allegiance to the Crown, they willingly wished to join with England in this Union. They are not a colony, nor are we an American colony in Europe. There is complete equality between England and Maine on all levels as stated in the above treaty. It also states that should Maine or England wish to leave the Union they are free to do so. This Commonwealth is Governed by Belfast and London, neither takes superiority over the other. You have my personal assurance your Imperial Highness England bears no ill will against North America and we will never claim an American territory in the name of England. Not again. The rape by the British Empire in America ended centuries ago and it will not happen again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are not a European country with American colonies nor an American country with European colonies. This is a fully consenting and legal Union of two Sovereign Nations.
