Hey long time no see Roads

Looks like Hayek Islands has been "destroyed" by HYDRA. I don't know what that means or what weapons they used.

Maybe...Hayek..splosives? :)

Failure to stand against injustice is tantamount to compliance.

Back when you all (we) did stuff we were at least an annoyance, a redirection. That alone is victory enough in my eyes.

The conflict is futile because we've run out of enemies. The War is over because we have nothing left to do. That's why we've won.

Could we keep the title of President?

I like the title of Chancellor for the Cabinet, but I personally prefer President for the executive, and if we're using Chancellor for both the executive and his cabinet that'd get confusing.

Other than that, could do with some provision directly in the Constitution to clarify if anything from the old one will be maintained, just so that we'll have a record of what we kept and what we didn't forever.

And there are some grammar things in there too but we can get that sorted out later.

All in all, I'd be totally in favor of that if we got those changes.

I like it, I agree with keeping the title of President, although I'm not a fan of the Chancellor titles, maybe Secretaries instead? But that honestly is just name preferences and won't change anything.

Other than that, I suggest renaming the government as The Second Republic of Libertatem, since it is a new constitution but we're retaining a republican government. It will also differentiate from the current Republic.

Humpheria wrote:http://www.nationstates.net/nation=humpheria/detail=factbook/id=632935

I like it. I only have two concerns: the President/Chancellor/Secretary name thing previously brought up, and the small size of the Senate. I feel 3 is too small for a legislature, and it would be better to have it be close to the same size as the current Board, with around 5 members.

Now tell me what you really think.

I think 3 is better than 5 simply because the purpose of the new gov. was to shrink and simplify the size of our regional government. We can add more as our population grows through amendment

Wow, I missed a lot. Well, good thing I spent over two hours reading everything.

Humpheria wrote:Now tell me what you really think.

I was going to comment on 3 but then I thought exactly what your second sentence was.

If 3 turns out to be too small, we can always change it, so it doesn't really matter.

Also, all the concerns I brought up in my other thing still stand. The title of the leader really needs to be different than the title of his advisors, and there's the question of whether or not anything from this constitution carries over.

Humpheria wrote:Now tell me what you really think.

Perhaps. I guess a three-man legislature was a shock to me because I'm from the CFN/NGA, where basically every citizen is a part of the legislature. Not saying I think Libertatem should go that route, I'm just saying it's not what I'm used to.

I feel like I should get into Libertatem's politics more? What do you think I should do?

Rateria wrote:I feel like I should get into Libertatem's politics more? What do you think I should do?

If you want to get involved, and you're a citizen, I say feel free. I don't know when the next election will be, but whenever it happens, I'm sure your involvement would be appreciated.

The elections aren't really explained.

Hyderbourg wrote:The elections aren't really explained.

And should the Chancellor really be able to appoint that many positions?

I would advise against the embassy with Imperium Slavicum, partially due to the fact that they've also proposed embassies with The Communist Bloc - of which there is no friendly relations between us, and partially the fact that Slavic nationalist regions have caused us a lot of trouble in the past.

Hyderbourg wrote:The elections aren't really explained.

Yeah, but neither are any other elections in the current system.
