Joe Stupid Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 (edited) We at ARES have been extremely busy these last couple months. Wars, recruiting, rebuilding, and all that other fun stuff. Nothing really kickstarted until about 3 weeks ago with the addition of both CommanderCato and Jtkode. Combined they have recruited 35+ members in less then 2 weeks. We are forever grateful. That brings our total to 107. So for the first time since Feb 1st, we passed 100 members again! Now, with all these changes, comes the necessary process of changing ARES itself. THE CHARTER OF ASCENDED REPUBLIC OF ELITE STATESCreed- The Ascended Republic of Elite States is established as a bastion of unity fashioned by the effort and unanimity of all those dedicated to its glorious cause. Our Creed, or Mission as it stands, is to subsist as a beacon of hope for all those who aspire and strive for alliance quality and serve as an icon of prestige. We are The Ascended Republic of Elite States, This is our creed, and it stands firm. Preamble- We, the nations of The Ascended Republic of Elite States, do hereby solemnly swear allegiance Republic in addition to all members honored by the Directorate as components of the government and sign the following charter, binding us as brothers-in-arms. We agree to follow the laws set forth by this charter and honor the wishes of its founders, to defend our brethren from any outside force which opposes them, to gather together in a sense of continuous unity and cooperation, to establish a peace that can only be obtained through the growth and development of ours and our brothers’ nations, and together reap the rewards of our alliance while upholding our intent to grow stronger in both strength and camaraderie.
