[center]As of today, the Shadow Empire has adopted a new Charter, and Government Setup. [/center]



Charter of the Shadow Empire

Article 1 – Governance, The Shadow Council

I. The Empire shall be governed by a Council. The Council shall be the voice of the popular membership to the wider world, as well as ensure the security and stability of the alliance. The Council is charged with overseeing all aspects of governance and of the alliance in general, both foreign and domestic.

II. The Council may from time to time appoint a President to serve the council as the symbolic head of the alliance. The President is to represent the general will of the populace.


Article 2 – Membership

I. Admissions to the Empire is granted by the authority, and is not compatible with any other body or allegiance.

II. Member Nations pledge to act in the interests of the Empire and to work to advance the goals of the alliance. All Member Nations are expected to make efforts to contribute to the well-being and continual progress and growth of the alliance. Advancement within the Empire is based upon demonstrated merit

III. Member Nations accept that they are bound by an oath of confidentiality. As such, they may not reveal internal or confidential information regarding the Empire to any extra-alliance party. This oath remains in effect even after the Member Nation ceases to be a member of the alliance and is effective from the moment they are granted membership.

IV. Any other Nation willing to uphold the principles of the Empire and to contribute to the growth of the alliance may apply for
membership. Nations so invited may become a Member Nation by stating their acceptance of this Charter.


Article 3 - Defense


I. An armed attack against one or more Member Nations shall be considered to be an attack against them all. In such an event, the Empire shall collectively take action as deemed necessary by the Council, potentially including the use of armed force, to restore and maintain the security of the alliance and its Member Nations.

II. Member Nations are permitted and encouraged to develop a nuclear capability. However, the use of nuclear weapons in an irresponsible manner is not endorsed. As such, nuclear first strike attacks are strictly prohibited unless their use has been explicitly pre-approved by the Shadow Council.

Article 4 - Violations

I. A Member Nation of the Shadow Empire which has attacked a fellow Member Nation or has persistently violated the Principles contained in the present Charter may be expelled from the Empire.

II. A Member Nation discovered belonging to another Alliance or in violation of his oath of confidentiality will be considered to be practicing espionage and expelled from the Shadow Empire. In the case of former Member Nations discovered in violation of their oath of confidentiality a request will be made to the nation’s current alliance for their suspension or expulsion from that alliance so that punitive action may be taken.

III. Any Member Nation of the Shadow Empire Nations against which punitive action has been taken by the Council may be suspended from the exercise of the rights and privileges of membership. Such rights and privileges may only be restored by the Council.
