Section 2.02 The Fire Council - The Fire Council will consist of 3 elected Council members, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Minister of Internal Affairs, the Minister of Finance, the Director of Intelligence, one of the 4-Star Generals (who can fight it out in a cage match to determine military representation on the Council) and the Evil Underlord.

Section 2.04 The Senate - Any full member in good-standing is by default a member of the Senate. (A) Votes on Charter proposals presented by the Evil Overlord and/or Fire Council (B ) Votes to elect the 3 elected Fire Council Members. Article III. - Foreign Policy The Phoenix Federation is a primarily forthcoming alliance, but acknowledges the fact that military operations may, in specific circumstances, be necessary for the safety and well-being of the alliance. In cases where TPF is bound by treaty, the Evil Overlord is the only vote necessary for approval. In the cases of offensive war NOT bound by treaty, a majority of the Fire Council must also approve a vote to war. Section 3.01 TPF will always attempt to resolve disputes via diplomacy first. Unless we don't like you to begin with... But then we'll still probably talk... While we oil up our tanks. Hey, it's not a very exciting job. Section 3.02 TPF will view any attack on our members as a hostile act and retaliate in kind. Inactivity of a member is irrelevant to our enforcement of this policy. (for the tl;dr crowd, do NOT attack our inactives unless you want to be ZI'd). Section 3.03 TPF will view any Senatorial Sanction (trade and/or aid of a TPF member), as an act of war. Note: A nation that has been expelled from TPF may be sanctioned as warranted. Article IV. - Tech-Raiding The use of tech raiding as a method beneficial to growth has been widely spread, and received, among the members of the Cyberverse. From these intentions, the Phoenix Federation deems tech raiding an acceptable practice. It is also realized, however, that devoid of guidelines to govern such a delicate art, tech raiding can be a very risky practice. To preserve the good intentions of tech raiding, and to leave those good intentions bereft of those that could be decreed negative, the following rules must be observed: (A) Nations bearing an alliance affiliation shall NOT be attacked unless the alliance in question bears a member count less then 20, or is a protectorate of another alliance that meets such standards. (B ) Unaligned nations (Alliance=NONE) are considered fair game. If the tech-raid goes bad, TPF will not assist member nations militarily or financially. In other words, members will be on their own if a tech-raid goes bad. NOTE: This does not prohibit the raiding party from asking a friend in the alliance to help, it means that there will be no coordination of aid or military to assist the raiding party. © Inactivity is irrelevant to the art of tech raiding. Regardless of the number of days a nation and/or its leader may be absent, if it is within bounds of the previous rules, it is an acceptable target. (D) Member nations may only be involved in one offensive war at a time for purposes of tech-raiding (E) Reparations (1) TPF will not pay reparations to any tech-raid target that meets the previous criteria. (2) If a nation belonging to an alliance of over 20 members is assaulted, reparations to the effect of 120% or higher shall be allotted to the victim, along with an immediate peace. (F) Members who continuously violate the Charter's guidelines on tech raiding will be subject to member sanctions up to, and including, expulsion and ZI. Article V. - Espionage Section 5.01 Members of The Phoenix Federation may not, at any time, spy upon members within another alliance, or upon the internal affairs of the Phoenix Federation. Members may not relinquish private information regarding the actions being taken by other alliances, and shall in turn not state to members of other alliances the confidential information of the Phoenix Federation including, but not limited to, potential policies, political decisions or possible military conflicts. Any nation(s) discovered to be in violation of this article will be ZI'd, and if the crime is serious enough, this will be a permanent ZI. Section 5.02 As other nations consider espionage an Act of War, so does TPF. Any alliance that is caught spying on TPF will be met with hostile action. Article VI: Nuclear Policy If a member of TPF is attacked with a nuclear weapon, TPF will allow the nuclear offender to be met with retaliatory nuclear strikes; no government approval necessary. A nuclear first strike may only be made once permission has been granted by a governmental member. Article VII: Expulsion To officially expel a member of the Phoenix Federation, the Fire Council and Evil Overlord must reach a decision based on the majority. From this vote, the member status of the person in question will be either revoked, or reserved. Article VIII. - Amendments It is recognized that as the Phoenix Federation grows, so shall this charter. Section 7.01 Any member of TPF may present an amendment to the Fire Council. If approved by the Fire Council, the amendment shall be taken before the senate. Section 7.02 Passage of an amendment requires a ¾'s majority vote from the senate within a 3 day time span.
