Solaris Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 (edited) THE VIRIDIAN ENTENTE IUNGERE VIRIDANS Green Team Official Information and Charter Thread Important Information Viridian Entente Forums - applicants and diplomats are welcome In-game Stats In-game Member List IRC Channel: #VE on irc.coldfront.net About the Viridian Entente The Viridian Entente is a meritocratic green team alliance, that has proven itself to be a major player in Cyberverse. A sanctioned alliance, and the only living proof, that death to an alliance is not necessarily a cronic condition. Once destroyed for it's defence of green freedom, only to rise from the dead with determination unforseen. One of the major recent diplomatic achievements for the Viridian Entente, and the green team as a whole, is the liberation of the green senate in the form of United Jungle Accords. Defense and Security In an effort to ensure the security of its members and its allies, the VE has allied itself with some of CN's premier alliances. We have worked hard to ensure that, as an alliance, we will be able to help to protect our friends, in addition to them protecting us. Also, having some of the most powerful nations in the game, the VE will be able to back you financially, militarily, and technologically in times of war (and if you are active enough, there are great opportunities to receive aid during peace time as well). Financial and National Development Aid, as well as council, is available for member nations of the Viridian Entente. The Dawn program for younger nations incorporates a monetary influx with an efficient plan, that can push your nation up to 1,500+ infrastructure in mere period of 15 days. Not only does one gain the infrastructural boost, but in addition, a first hand experience in terms of efficient economic growth. Technology trade is also well organized, and all nations have the opportunity to participate in either purchase or selling of technology. The Entente always strives to further improve the global Viridian economy, as well as the economies of our individual member nations. Military and Wars While the VE strongly disengourages rogue actions (attacking any nations without the approval of the VE) with the Impero Doctrine, it does maintain the Enemies of the Entente list, essentially a list of rogues and other enemies that are free game for anyone to attack. If actual military campaigns interest you, than you have the opportunity to lead in our military provided you show knowledge and leadership in the field of war. Diplomacy For nations more interested in diplomacy and politics, the VE offers several opportunities to be involved with the political scene. In the Diplomatic Corps, you can put your diplomatic skills to the test by representing the VE to other alliances, as well as participate in analyzing the bigger picture of Cyberverse at large. Involvement Opportunites New chances to be involved are always showing up, and if you prove yourself to be active and aware of the going-ons of CN and the VE, you'll have the opportunity to advance to the higher ranks, all the way to a Secretary, or even the Lord. Membership If you are interested in joining the Viridian Entente, change your alliance affiliation to Viridian Entente Applicant, sign-up on our forums, and post an application. Ambassadors If you are looking to represent your alliance, please apply via the link provided above. I – PREAMBLE Article I. The Viridian Entente (herein referred to as “The Entente”) is an alliance open to all nations of the Cyberverse. It is the goal of The Entente to provide for the prosperity and defense of its members and the Green Team with honor, honesty, initiative, and innovation. II – ESTABLISHMENT OF RIGHTS Article I. Every nation within The Entente holds the right to free speech within the alliance. A forum of the people will be provided so that each nation may freely air its grievances, suggest improvements, propose legislation to be voted on by the Parliament, and generally speak its mind. However, the Lord and Secretaries retain the right to edit any posts made by members for the sake of clarity and organization, not censorship (save in instances as required by greater law), as well as the right to restrict conversing publicly on specific sensitive issues and during crises in order to ensure a unified and clear message. Article II. Any nation currently represented in The Entente has the right to secede at any time if it so wishes. However, it is required to submit a letter of resignation to the Secretary of the Interior. If a nation wishes to be readmitted into The Entente, it must follow the same admission guidelines as first-time applicants. However, the Lord and Secretaries retain the right to restrict membership flow during times of war and mandate reprocussions for desertion. III – EXECUTIVE Article I. The Executive Branch of the Viridian Entente shall be comprised of and led by the Lord of the Entente. He is to be involved in all aspects of the game and all aspects of The Entente, with powers only limited where explicitly stated within the charter. The position of Lord is perpetual, only ending upon the wish of the Lord himself or by process of impeachment. Article II. The Duke of the Entente, appointed by the Lord himself with the advice and consent of Parliament, shall serve as the second-in-command of the Executive Branch, assisting the Lord and fulfilling his various roles in a more limited scale. The Duke retains all the powers of the Lord save the ability to provide executive approval of treaties and legislation, appoint Secretaries, or declare war when not obligated by treaty. Article III. Any legislation passed by Parliament must first be approved and signed by the Lord of the Entente before it can be executed. The Lord reserves the right to veto any piece of legislation for any reason at any time. A Lord’s veto can be overridden by the unanimous vote of Parliament. Article IV. Should the Lord of the Entente abdicate or be removed from office, the Duke of the Entente shall assume the role of acting Lord. Parliament will choose whether to retain the Duke as the new Lord. The Duke, or any other candidate, can only take office permanently by the unanimous vote of Parliament. Article V. If a nation in any leadership position fails to fulfill expectations, abuses his or her powers, or does not have the confidence of the Entente for any reason, a vote of Impeachment may be initiated. For an Impeachment Vote to carry forth, at least five general members and one Secretary must put forth the leader to be voted upon and the reasons for impeachment. An Impeachment Vote will take place among the general membership for no less than 48 hours and no more than 72 hours. A super-majority of four-fifths is required to remove an official from office. The Lord or the Duke of the Entente may also be removed by the unanimous vote of Parliament. IV – LEGISLATIVE Article I. Parliament, comprised of three Secretaries, appointed every month by the Lord, each representing a branch of The Entente, and two elected Regents, representing the general membership of the Entente, will vote to ratify or reject amendments, to make laws and policies, and to decide other matters relating to the good of The Entente and its member nations. All members of Parliament may only vote once in any given matter, and no vote will wield more power over any other vote. All legislative votes need a simple majority to be passed. Article II. The Departments of Parliament shall be designated and filled as such, with the Secretaries having total dominion over the affairs delegated to them, submitting only to the will of the Executive: Section 1. The Secretary of Defense is responsible for coordinating war efforts and educating Entente members on the practices of war. The Secretary of Defense acts as the Chair and Head of The Entente’s Army, and is responsible for gathering and organizing intelligence on the various alliances of the Cyberverse to ensure the security of the Entente. Section 2. The Secretary of State is responsible for seeking diplomatic relations with CyberNation’s wealth of alliances. The Secretary of State must keep track of all embassies both on The Entente’s forums as well as The Entente’s respective embassies on foreign alliance forums. The Secretary of State is also responsible for keeping track of and welcoming new Ambassadors and Diplomats to The Entente. Section 3. The Secretary of the Interior is responsible for keeping Entente members informed, investigating violations of the Charter, admitting and recruiting new members, and ensuring each nation is running at optimal efficiency. This includes helping to manage trades, suggesting improvements, coordinating aid, as well as a host of other things. The Secretary of Internal Affairs may discipline any nations found to be releasing private information to outside parties. Article III. The Regents of the Entente will serve to voice the opinions and concerns of the membership of the Entente to the Lord and Secretaries, acting as the voting representatives of the general membership. The Regents will be elected once every two months. Any member may be nominated, so long as they meet the requirements set forth by the Secretary of the Interior. Messaging on the part of any candidate or on behalf of any candidate will automatically invalidate both the candidacy of the candidate in question and the validity of that round of the elections. The Lord may choose what punitive action to take against the offender(s), or delegate that task to Parliament. The Lord of the Entente reserves the right to deny the candidacy of any nation, given a reason deemed acceptable by Parliament. The electoral process shall be organized by the sitting Secretary of the Interior. Article IV. In the event that a Secretary must abdicate or resign from his or her position, the Lord shall appoint a replacement to serve the remainder of the term. In the event that a Regent must abdicate or resign from his or her position, the runner-up from the previous election shall be tapped to serve the remainder of the term. If the runner-up turns down the position, Parliament shall vote in a replacement to serve the remainder of the term. The Lord shall still retain his right to deny the office. V – WAR Article I. The Viridian Entente is committed to avoiding war at all times. However, The Entente recognizes that sometimes war is necessary. The power to declare war on another organization for any reason other than mandatory treaty obligations lies solely with the Lord of the Entente. All wars must be sanctioned by the Lord of the Entente, the Secretary of Defense, or by an individual explicitly empowered by the Lord or Secretary of Defense. Article II. The Secretary of Defense requires that all nations be on standby at times of war. If a nation is specifically called upon by the Secretary of Defense to declare war or send aid, that nation is required to do so. Failure to comply shall be considered desertion. VI – AMENDMENT PROCESS Article I. If a nation finds that the Charter of The Entente needs to be amended, it is to bring the correction to the attention of the Parliament. An amendment will then be written and presented to the Parliament to be voted on. The amendment must pass with a four-fifths majority in addition to a vote from the Lord of the Entente to be ratified. The Lord's Veto can be overridden by the unanimous vote of Parliament.
