That’s good, because by my calculations Scotland’s allotment for greenhouse gases are exceeded by sheep flatulence alone.

It's actually for my country Auld Valyria. It has a similar concept to the Nazi Volksgemeinschaft. All Valyrians, regardless of their class, should be united together as one community because of their shared identity, culture and racial supremacy to all others.

No. Valyrians are a unique race showcased by their silvery blonde hair, purple eyes and fair skin. Any foreign peoples who are conquered and subjugated are seen as racially inferior and thus worthy of slavery. Valyrians, however, are forbidden from being enslaved and cannot engage in work or activities which are seen as demeaning to their people.

What form/type of government do they have?

Penguania And Antarctica wrote:What form/type of government do they have?

It's a mixture of the Roman Republic/Empire and Holy Roman Empire. Noble families dominate the legislature and the head of state/government is the Archon. This position is supposed to be elected from among the forty most powerful families in the realm but the position has been held for centuries by the same family, making it de facto hereditary. This is similar to the Habsburgs maintaining the imperial crown of the HRE despite it being elected.

I don't often drink tea and I physically can't when the weather is hot. I can in the evenings in the summer. My mother and grandparents on the other hand can and will drink a cup of tea at any time even if it's blisteringly hot outside.

Nuremgard wrote:If Canada became a republic, what kind would you want it to be? Ceremonial president? Semi-presidential system? Full presidential system?

Semi-presidential with fixed election dates so that the legislature (preferably a unicameral one) and the President are elected simultaneously.

Ranked ballot for President, Cabinet selected by Pres from legislature, Cabinet required to maintain legislature’s confidence.

Loss of confidence leads to dropping of the writ as long as there is more than one year until the fixed election date; fixed election still takes place as scheduled.

I also like the idea of individual ministers being subject to confidence votes for mismanagement of their portfolios, but I’d like to see the concept of Cabinet solidarity revisited if we’re not going to hold all of Cabinet responsible for the mismanagement of the few.

Isn't a unicameral legislature a bad idea for a country as large as Canada?

Yet your party foolishly want to exploit oil for simple economic gain while ignoring the effect it will have on the environment - and this is more than a simple policy, it's a cornerstone of Salmond's original independence argument.

Well the SNP are a very middle of the road party. They try to be all things to all men. And yes, since we have the oil resources, I want to exploit that. I want a sovereign wealth fund set up along the lines of Norway.

Nuremgard wrote:Isn't a unicameral legislature a bad idea for a country as large as Canada?

The Senate of Canada has infamously abandoned its intended role of regional representation since almost day #1, so Canada has lived without the intended purpose of a second chamber for pretty much its entire existence. And yet, we still keep ticking.

So, no, I would argue it’s not a bad idea at all. We currently pay 105 Senators and their staffers to continue our culture of party partisan politics in one chamber when the 336 Members of Parliament are already doing a fine job of considering the Party above all else just down the hall.

There are still other mechanisms, ones that more reliably provide regional consideration, that promote our role as a federation. The most important is the requirement to have the approval of at least 7 provinces comprising at least 50% of the population to pass some constitutional amendments, and unanimity of the provinces to pass still other more wide-sweeping amendments. There’s also the distribution of our electoral ridings, where smaller provinces have smaller elector thresholds so that more seats can be allotted to them.

A little too Bolivarian for my tastes, what with backing Maduro and the Venezuelan government's rapid authoritarianism, plus he has tried to circumvent Constitutional limits on power like term limits (the 2016 referendum as the prime example and the TSJ rejecting the results). Other than that, I know people support him and his endeavors (though it still doesn't endear me to Bolivia).

While I don't justify it, I can kinda' understand why Venezuela is turning more to authoritarianism. Enduring a military coup is bound to make the ruling party skittish.
