Region: The Mystical Council

History

I vote to Pass the EPA as well

Malcholm, Oakplumington

I vote against the EPA. Giving the founder power to unilaterally remove embassy authority from someone violates the principle of good faith; under the proposed legislation, the person closing the embassy doesn't even get a chance to defend themselves or their actions.

Will you vote for it if I include a clause for appeal?

I added section 5.

5. If it is believed that the Founder or Delegate removed embassies authority without just cause, then they may appeal their case to the Lunar Council.

I forgot to add warzone regions to the protected list. I'm gonna do that now.

I would like to save The Union Depository as well. It is a symbol of the alliance this region has with The Union.

If there are any embassies you want to put on the protection list, just let me know.

Pay no attention to that. It's not true! It's not -

*gets strangled by black glove*

ATTENTION CITIZENS OF THE MYSTICAL COUNCIL!

This region is currently under defensive occupation by THE RED FLEET!

The previous hodgepodge of legislation has been rescinded and replaced with an EMERGENCY CONSTITUTION, effective immediately!

The Emergency Constitution is pinned to the World Factbook Entry, and may also be accessed directly here: http://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=564953

As outlined in the Emergency Constitution, the non-RO members of The Mystical Council are to elect a representative to serve as Speaker of the Lunar Soviet.

You may begin nominations now.

Thou shalt not ban anyone without the approval of two branches of government!

You have violated the most sacred freedom in this region: THE FREEDOM TO EXIST!

NOW YOU'RE GONNA PAY

Citizens of this liberated region, don't pine for your old, useless government whose foolish actions brought you into the so-called "ANTICOM" alliance and pushed you into a warzone! The best way to make your voices heard is through participating in the political process! As members of the Lunar Soviet, true power is within your grasp! You have only to elect a Speaker in order to gain control over your political destiny!

If all powers aren't given back to the Lunar Admiralty Board immediately, I encourage all nations to leave this region and show solidarity against this tyrant!

Desperate times. This is the reason why our constitution isn't finalized yet. I've been waiting for months for a situation like this to occur. This means that the eject only policy will not work in practice.

Thank you red fleeters! We will have a better constitution and a stronger region because of this little exercise. It was an important learning experience for everyone.

I really like that flag by the way! I noticed the lunar touch! ;)

Don't worry everyone. We will return to an executive delegacy by tomorrow. We are a free and democratic region.

Oakplumington wrote:We are a free and democratic region.

You are now that you have an actual constitution!

Comrades, do your part to ensure a smooth transition to democracy! Vote for your Speaker of the Lunar Soviet!

Everyone the red fleet is wrong we should let the communist bloc take us under the wing give these fleeters a big salute with one finger.

FYI - This is the reason for the lockdown on government powers. Everyone should be aware.

New poll is up over here. Please vote. Voting is open to all nations so relocating is not necessary. Do not vote if you are not a resident nation of The Mystical Council. All other votes will be discarded.

*Only vote if you are a resident. Sorry that was worded a little weird. Unnecessary negations.

Alright, here goes nothing...

In light of recent events, it has come to my attention that a tyrannical government under the control of The Red Fleet came into existence overnight. Numerous nations moved into our region in order to support [nation=short]The_Lunar_High_Admiral[/nation], who maliciously attempted to usurp the existing regional government in order to create a "truly free and democratic government". This nation attempted to banish our Founder, [nation=short]Oakplumington[/nation], for executing his inherent rights under section 38 of the constitution. Hence, [nation=short]The_lunar_high_admiral[/nation] attempted to justify their actions by creating a piece of legislation titled "Emergency Constitution of The Mystical Council". This legislation was not approved by two branches of government, and was forced upon the nations of The Mystical Council to serve as an excuse for violating the original constitution. Nowhere in the original constitution does it allow for such action. Due to these aforementioned transgressions against the state, the people, and the law, I, Lunar Council President, hereby motion to eject every nation who supported [nation=short]The_Lunar_High_Admiral[/nation]'s tyrannical reign. Nations ejected in this manner may move to Mystical Council, and are granted the right to appeal to the Lunar Council via telegram or RMB messaging.

The following nations are to be ejected, and may not return unless the successfully appeal to the Lunar Council.

Just so all of you know, I was added to the ban list. There are also a few other nations who were banned.

It appears this region is back to normal, I will now be returning to ANTICOM.

I'm curious as to why this region is tagged anti-communist but you want embassies with TCB. Go ahead and propose embassies as I have no power in this region, but I suggest not allying with any communist regions.

kinda do or get raided every day and tcb seems more sensible then the fleet.

Just logged in real quick. I don't have much time to do anything of significance but I wanted to mention our embassies poll in our backup region Mystical Council.

Following our Lunar Council President's decision to purge our region, I have also decided to dismiss the last three officers. I'll be back later on. All bans have been lifted on our embassy friends.

These fleeters don't realize how serious a line they crossed when they started banning people last night. It's on now! I'm going to push for an official declaration of war on these fleeters in the coming hours.

Only with the approval of two branches of government, so it'd have to go to a vote.

I think a good piece to add to the Constitution would be "Nations who are banned from the region may not attempt to impose legislation on the nations of the region."

..just so [nation=short]the_lunar_high_admiral[/nation] doesn't get any funny ideas.
