[quote]A [b]GENERAL OUTLINE [/b]of the [u]agreed upon[/u] terms:

[b][size="6"]Political Outline[/size][/b]:

The signators hereby agree that;

- The unified states will abide under democratic republic, consisting of a judicial, legislative and executive branch;

- The judicial branch is hereby made up of the county courts, the territory courts and the head court;

- The legislative branch is hereby made up of local community town house voting stations*, a territory government consisting of a democratically elected territory council, and a council elected territory governor, the parliament, consisting of members based on county population, the upper parliament, of which ten per territory are elected, and two heads of parliament, all elected by the people.

*Town house voting stations are, by legal definition approved of by the Georgia-Carolina meeting of 2016, “[i]A county voting house in which local, concerned citizens actively participate in local government by voting on budgets, local projects and local laws, and any other legal issue that is contained to the county in question. County courts can overturn any town house ruling. Furthermore, if the head court decides a county is breaking national law or endangering its people, it may overturn or modify a decision as it sees fit. Territory councils have no power over county townhouses[/i].”

-The executive branch hereby consists of a Prime Minister and Vice-Minister, elected directly by the people, the Minister’s Cabinet, appointed by the Prime Minister with approval from the upper parliament, and all federal agencies directly owned by the government, which are established through permission from the parliament and upper parliament.

- Terms are as stand: 6 years for count judges, 8 years for territory judges and 12 years for head judges; 2 for territory county councilman, 4 for territory governor, 2 for parliament, 3 for upper parliament, 3 for heads of parliament, 4 for the Prime Minister and Vice-Minister and their respective cabinets.

- Furthermore, the people have enacted term limits. A man, woman, goat or any other democratically elected organism may serve as follows: 4 terms as county judge, 2 terms as territory judge, 1 term as head judge, 4 terms for territory councilman, 2 terms as territory governor, 4 terms as parliament, 2 terms as upper parliament, 1 term has head of parliament, and 2 terms as Prime Minister and Vice-Minister.

- Political parties are hereby banned by the courts of Carolina and Georgia. As Greenville County spokesman Harold Cheve says, “[i]Political parties server no purpose but to limit free thinking and divide the people of our nation. To permanently uphold our integrity, honor and unity, we must abolish political parties and incriminate those who attempt to create such wicked destroyers of kingdoms[/i].”

- To provide fair election choices, corporations, individuals and non-government organizations are hereby banned from donating to any candidate. To add, candidates cannot use their personal monetary gains to fund their political campaign. Any candidate found attempting this will be permanently eliminated and banned from any public office, banned from townhouses and be charged with treason in the head courts. Furthermore, to avoid corruption, the government will provide all election footage and do full interviews with candidates. In this sense, the media cannot destroy a candidate’s career with false images. THESE RULES DO NOT APPLY FOR COUNTY LEVEL COURTS. For courts beyond district levels, the government will set a sum of $5,000 for each territory judge running and $50,000 for each head judge, adjusted for inflation. For territory councilman, a sum of $10,000 will be given, for territory governor, a sum of $45,000 will be given. For parliament, a sum of $15,000 will be given. For upper parliament, a sum of $30,000 will be granted. For Prime-Minister and Vice-Minister Candidates, a sum of $100,000 will be granted. To cope with these costs, the a 15% tax will be placed on the salaries of government members until it is fully paid back. The donations are negotiable for lower prices. The people will vote on a later to be set number of candidates to run as to avoid the government handing away too much in cash. Stealing government supplied election funds is treason.

- Salaries are as chosen: $50,000 for territory judge, $150,000 as head judge, $55,000 as territory councilman, $115,000 as territory governor, $85,000 as parliament member, $125,000 as upper parliament member, $150,000 as head of parliament, [s]$200,000 [/s] $190,000 as Vice-Minister, [s]$200,000[/s] $190,000 for each member of cabinet, and [s]$250,000 [/s] $240,000 for Prime-Minister.
