Founding principles

Unity:

United as one, together under the same flag for reasons that are selfless. Unity is not simply a word to which we live by. For we are brothers united under our queen. We shall honor and respect each other in all things we do. To fight one of us is to fight us all we are whole, a flock. Unity is our strength and we are a family of one.

Respect:

Respect is simple term for which we live by. All members should apply it to everything they do. From the CN forums to our dealings with others around us. Be polite and handle yourself in a respectful manor for your actions reflect those of your Queen.

Honor:

Honor is a virtue that while many lack we shall not. Honor yourself, honor your queen and honor those around you. Honor breeds success and from success shall we show our valor. Death before dishonor!

Government Summary

KING and QUEEN:

Is the official voice of the alliance

Responsible for bringing up treaties and declarations of war to the High Council

Responsible for the Day-to-Day operations of ( ; ) )

Is responsible for being up-to-date on current CN politics

Responsible for the general welfare of the alliance

The QUEEN is the Monarch and Rightful leader of the alliance. Her term as QUEEN will remain until the day she is expelled for misconduct by the council or she steps down. If for some reason our beloved QUEEN does step down a New Monarch will be selected by the Council and will assume the role of KING or QUEEN. The QUEEN also has the right at any given time to take a KING to serve beside her. In the event that the QUEEN takes a KING, both will serve side by side in their position of power with either overtop of the other. The KING will be under the same classification as the QUEEN and may be removed in the same manor. The term in which a selected KING serves is the same as the QUEEN as they serve in the same role in government. The QUEEN is not required to take a KING by her side but reserves the right to do so at her leisure. If a KING is ever crowned and one of the monarchs are are removed by council vote both are as they are considered as one. If one of them steps down the other assumes full power and may not take another QUEEN or KING.

In the event a KING is crowned the alliance shall hold a Crowning ceremony honoring our new holy monarch.

In Times of War the Queen will be given direct control of the alliance. Her say will then override and be the word of God. During such a time the QUEEN cannot be removed from office.

High Council:

The Council is the work horse of the ( ; ) ) . They carry just as much weight as the QUEEN and are needed in every high level decision in order for it to occur. For New laws, declarations of war as well as treaties the council must vote 3/5 majority in favor of that being proposed.

The Council is made up of 4 members and a Elder.

The Elder member is the head of the council and the offical speaker of the council. Like the queen the elder member serves a life-term and can only be removed by the QUEEN. The Elder is the official 2nd in command appointed by the QUEEN.

Generals: (e.g. Finance General, War General)

Appointed by the Alliance as a whole via a voting process to be directly responsible for the area they serve, such as Internal Affairs or Finance. The council must vote 3/5 in favor to remove them from their position at any time for any given reason should one arise.

Generals will select one deputy to assist them with day-to-day tasks.

Knights:

The Title Knight will be bestowed apon members who are loyal and are worthly of a grand title. The title knight is an earned one and once appointed a knight the title can never be lost. Knights are voices within the alliance and trusted membership. They serve as advisors to the other government members and may be given tasks to complete by government officials.

Taking Office:

The initial Leadership will be determined by the QUEEN. After the alliance has grown voting will take place for the council positions as well as all General Positions.

After the initial 90 days there will be an alliance-wide vote. Candidates will be given a chance to campaign for the positions of High Council as well as General positions. Every nation will be given one vote and every member can vote regardless of title or nation strength. Positions will last 60 days before another vote is counted.

Removal/Leaving Office:

The QUEEN can be impeached by a private and unanimous vote from the members of the High Council. For an impeachment to occur the council must have all 5 votes in favor of impeachment. Reasons which could lead to impeachment would be issues such as neglect or failing to lead the alliance as a whole in the right direction.

High Council can be removed only by the agreement via alliance wide vote for there removal. The QUEEN must demand a vote be taken and for removal to ocur a majority vote is needed.

The Elder Councilman can be removed at any given time per the QUEENS request. The Elder is the offical voice of the queen in the council and his fate is in her hands.

Should any member of the High Council step down, the QUEEN will appoint a new member to take his place.
