Factory Farms banned
The Environment and Agriculture minister, Geraldino Asunikatu announced the Forced Farming and Animal Welfare Act 2020 (#72.29.8.2020) to Parliament, saying that "it will prevent the spread of disease, improve the lives of animals, and reduce carbon emissions". Parliament voted in favour by 511 to 494. Senate voted against it with no amendments by 131 to 120. With the Svaskan Exception Amendment, it passed by 135 to 116. Anna Orana MP said she was "appalled by the decision that will no doubt harm our economy". The legislation excludes Svaska as per the Svaskan Exception Amendment.

Hello guys.
How have you been?
Nationific, Ayeinc, Monkelandd
Its aliiiivvvveee!!
Hey guys! Reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated. Your assassination attempts have been thwarted- mission failed, youll get em next time (hopefully not).
In all seriousness, Im here (mostly. Discord is still being problematic.) and I come with news: The Constitution proposal is finished and is ready for your perusal!
This has been a well-debated piece within the IC and weve finally agreed on a product we believe will not only better serve this regional community but will also open new doors for everyone wishing to build Thalassia up. We truly believe this is the best path forward that respects our democratic values and ensures a sustainable and accountable government for our region.
Special thanks to Ayeinc, Maison Saint-Pierre, Melodi Isles, and Owl Archipelago for debating, polishing and authoring this Constitution and to Arenado and Wymondham1 for being its main authors.
If you have any questions regarding this proposal, I would encourage you to ask Arenado and/or Wymondham1 for clarification.
The discussion period starts now! While it may be a little unorthodox, theres no set date for the end of this period. We want to ensure theres enough time for discussion. This is also the prime time to join the WA, because only those in the WA prior to the vote opening will be allowed to cast their ballot. The cutoff for this is when discussion ends and voting begins- dont worry, we will warn yall before discussion ends.

I, for one, welcome our new democratic overlords.
In all seriousness, I support this constitution. I do have a question on the judicial part. So... What's the judicial part for and how will we get a fair and impartial judge?
Nationific, Ayeinc, Arenado, Amboron
The judicial part will be to handle IC offenses or problems, OOC offenses will be handled by OOC administration. As for the second part, we will be writing a judicial process and guideline to ensure a fair and impartial judicial hearing, including CR members recusing them as needed.
Nationific, Badivermeraed, Amboron
In its most basic sense, we already had a judiciary. First it was the President, and then it was me. This was usually done after discussion with the Security Council, though no where was that legislated or were there legitimate procedures. While I was the Executive, we havent had any situations that called for discussion regarding an In Character offense however I can think of a couple of situations during others terms that would have benefited from a above-board judiciary weighing in (ie the roleplay bans).
It is my belief that spreading these powers between multiple individuals and handling these in such a way that allows these individuals to defend themselves legitimately would help prevent situations like that from occurring again.
Badivermeraed, Owl Archipelago, Arenado, Amboron

[spoiler] Cark's constitutional proposition
I, Cark, propose the following changes and amendments to the draft of the constitution.
1. Regarding the appointed status of the Curia Regis: Members of the Curia Regis will be directly elected via regional elections, rather than appointed by the Monarch. The Monarch will be a permanent member of the Curia Regis unless abdication occurs to ensure regional safety and stability. The Curia Regis will have term limits implemented to prevent the same people from winning every time, and to encourage more discourse and competition in the Thalassain political landscape.
2. Regarding the powers of the Curia Regis, and of the Monarch: The Monarch, and by extension the Curia Regis as a whole, shall have to rescind some of it's powers, such as the Monarch's ability to appoint members of the Curia Regis, and the Curia Regis' power to dissolve the RA. The Curia Regis' power to vet all legislation passed by the Regional Assembly will still stand, however if the Regional Assembly votes at least 5/6ths against this veto, the legislation will still be passed (based of the president's veto power in the USA), however this legislation still must adhere to the core principles of the Constitution, and cannot violate it in any way, shape, or form.
3. Regarding the matter of an elected Head of State: An elected figure, referred to as the President, Prime Minister, Governer, or whatever else, shall act as the Head of State of the region of Thalassia, serving for terms of 3 months, and serving a maximum term length of 3. This position, which I will call President for simplicities sake, will be limited in terms of power by the Regional Assembly, the Curia Regis, and the Monarch via a system of checks and balances, however will have, including but not limited to, the power to veto legislation, in a similar manner to the Curia Regis, appoint Regional Officers, demand emergency elections in times of crisis and more.
5. Regarding the powers of the Monarch: As a constitutional monarchy, Thalassia must set rules to limit the power of the Monarch, however I know full well that the Monarch must still hold enough power as to stabilize the region and keep the elected bodies in check. This is why the Monarch shall have powers including but not limited to, Calling for the Impeachment of any official, elected or otherwise, which would require a majority vote in both the Regional Assembly and the Curia Regis, as well as having the power to, at any time, veto legislation for being unconstitutional, requiring the one who proposes this to rewrite their legislation, and if still deemed unfit the legislation shall be put to public referendum in order to ensure it's integrity and to keep the Monarch's power in check. The Monarch will also hold "emergency powers," which she can use in case a state of emergency is declared by a majority vote by the Regional Assembly, however if the Monarch sees the Regional Assembly as corrupt, or sees the state of Thalassia as one of emergency contradictory to the views of the RA, the Monarch will be able to use these powers at her discretion, however there will be consequences if the Monarch decides to misuse these powers. These powers include ultimate executive authority, and the power to pass legislation that could not have been passed before. It is important to note that if any citizen sees this as a misuse of power, they can report it to the Assembly or the Curia Regis, who can vote to repeal what has been done by the Monarch, requiring at least a 2/3rds vote.
These are all the propositions that I, Cark, have for now regarding the matter of bettering the constitution, and ensuring that we preserve Thalassian democracy. If you have any qualms or disagree, please let me know. Feel free to implement any of these propositions that I have listed above. [/spoiler]
Please spoiler this, thank you.

Thalassian Income Supplementation Scheme (TISS)
In an impressive burst of adoration, celebration and a high amount of sucking up, Conklandi government officials have announced that they are ready to give a proportion of $40 trillion to every Conklandi citizen living as a plan to increase spending.
They estimate that the money will work out to $27,000 for every single person.
There were objections from well-heeled businesses, who said that it would lead to increased inflation, drug overdoses and other problems.
If successful, the Conklandi Fund manager would look to expanding it to Thalassia.
Bums all over Thalassia eagerly watch the progress of the experiment.

After a long night of counting and vigorous scrutinization the final results are in and we have a Hung Parliament with no party controlling a majority, remember the parliament elects a Vice Governor and a Vice Governor needs the votes of a majority of the seats to win election.

Good evening, Lushie. I'm Emily Langhorne, head anchor of Lushie Public Television, broadcasting over television, internet, and radio. My pronouns are she/her, here are tonight's headlines.
Bulbasoft, the Lushian socialized IT giant, announced today their partnership with the national rail network. Together with Libertiana-based Railqueer, they will be replacing the aging RQ400 series of high speed rail consists with a new fleet of RQ500s. Perhaps most notably, every train will come with a cafe car, which will have live music, open mic nights, and slam poetry. Food products will be supplied by Lushian farmers.
The new Kiki has become the most AI friendly it has ever been. 43 androids represent a variety of districts, from cosmopolitan Manning Ridge to the rainforest villages of Southern Lushie. A vast majority of citizens support AI rights, despite the presence and loud voices of many anti-android groups.
In solidarity with much of the world, Manning Avenue in downtown Gaytrans Harbor was blocked off by peaceful protesters today, affirming their belief in the value of black lives. President Butterfly, First Enby Marco Diaz, and the leaders of 36 out of the 42 caucuses in the Kiki were also present at the Gaytrans Harbor Civil Rights Meet.
Speaking of, the Civil Rights Meet broke records for attendance and speakers last week. Topics discussed ranged from trans rights (from President Butterfly and I) and AI issues to deforestation and gentrification. A whopping 97% of all Lushians support the yearly festival, described as "a safe space to protest, discuss and learn about what rights our nation is obligated to give its people".
We have some great news regarding our morning anchor, Brayden Jamie. His top surgery was a success, and we have word he will return to host Monday morning's broadcast.
Finally tonight, I'd like to remind everyone to take care of themselves. The world may be terrifying, but you don't have to be terrified. Once again, I'm Emily Langhorne. Catch us tomorrow here or on your favorite streaming app. Good evening, Lushie."
A exciting orchestral theme plays over live drone footage of the skyline of Gaytrans Harbor, as credits roll.
