I have blond hair, but my facial hair grows in red.

The only explanation I can see is I killed someone in a past life and this is God's way of punishing me.

Tserra uses a custom religion, 2 actually. I have yet to update my factbook regarding it.

Basically the most widespread is like a cross between Judaism, and Norse mythology I guess? Maybe I dunno how to describe it.

The second one is basically a cult of Sithis. With a Tserran spin or 3. (Note: Spinnage may vary, wildly in some cases.)

Announcement from an undisclosed location

People of the world, as many of you are no doubt aware, the people of Sulania are now under a new threat. Joshua Varen, and the so called United Socialist Republic, are taking the Sulanian people on a path that not all of us are for. A path of oppression and despair under the control of the USCS, and the self-proclaimed Premier's own ambition for power. A path to communism is not a path for Sulania, and it will not be a path that we support. Even now, the Premier is making reforms to quiet dissidence, restrain peoples' rights, and bring Sulania under his complete autocratic rule.

I, former governor and President, Catherine Poklonskaya, broadcast this as a formal declaration of rebellion against the oppressive regime of the Premier and his oppressive government. We will bring a future of not only peace to Sulania, but one in which all Sulanians can take part in the freedoms and joys that all people are entitled to. Free to do as they wish, and free from the tyranny of Varen.

We, both I and my brothers and sisters in arms, call on all supporters of freedom and democracy to aid us in our fight for freedom. I also call on our old allies in the ITF to aid us.

We, of the Free Sulanian Peoples, thank you for any and all support in our endeavor for freedom.

[B]Official Statement on the Sulanian conflict from the United Kingdom of Jaslandia[/B]

"Prince Regent Jason, on behalf of the Government of the United Kingdom of Jaslandia, urges both sides of the Sulanian conflict to cease their fighting and settle their dispute diplomatically. While Jaslandia's preference is toward the current and democratically-elected government of Sulania, we also recognize the valid concerns of the rebellion, and as we have worked with some of the rebellion's leaders' in the past, we trust their judgement and leadership.

"That said, Jaslandia does not believe that violence is the correct method to redress grievances in a functional democracy, and we also believe that the will of the people must be respected. To that end, we propose an internationally-monitored referendum in Sulania, which would determine if Sulania leaves the Kaiserreich and joins the USCS; re-joins the Kaiserreich and leaves the USCS; or stays neutral. There could also be a referendum over whether the nationalists or the Republicans will serve as the ruling government of Sulania. Failing that, Jaslandia will press for humanitarian aid and assistance of civilians, though we will not rule out military intervention."

Recreate the Greater East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere :p

Sorry for the non-RP related interlude. I don't see it addressed in the latest constitution revision, so I'll bring it up here.

[nation=short]Unfallious[/nation], why is the Constabulary being removed from the juridiction of the Minister of Justice in your constitutional proposal? The way I see it, this created several issues:

1. There would be an imbalance of duties between the ministerial positions, making the Minister of Justice an on-call position. The Minister of Internal Affairs would deal with citizenry on a regular basis (they're arguably the Cabinet position with the highest demand), the Minister of Foreign Affairs would manage embassies and the ambassador staff, but the Minister of Justice would only be necessary if a) the Cabinet requests legal advice and/or b) judicial sentences are needed to be enforced. In essence, we would have an elected official that would go widely unused. However, giving this person jurisdiction over the management of the Constabulary would address this underutilization. This imbalance is obvious just by looking at the descriptions of the different ministerial positions as provided in the proposed constitution.

2. There is a disconnect in duty. The Minister of Justice is given jurisdiction for carrying out judicial sentences, but does not have jurisdiction over the Constabulary who would and should be qualified to offer support in this manner. You're essentially stating that the Minister of Justice should be a legally-acquainted elected individual and then underutilizing them in legal matters and duties.

3. There is a disconnect in logic. The Minister of Justice is supposed to be Cabinet's legal advisor and the region's legal enforcer, but this person is not involved with those trusted with upholding the legal peace by investigating alleged crimes and bringing them to the judiciary's attention. The Constabulary and the Minister of Justice need to have a good working relationship as they respectively embody the pre- and post-sentence stages of the judicial process. I fail to see how an unelected person appointed by the President fits as well into this function as the directly elected Minister of Justice. Especially when we consider, once again, how underutilized this elected position will be if this proposal becomes our new constitution.

You know, I've been thinking a lot about that.

Is authoritarianism really bad if the people ask for it? If the people of Sulania voted in an authoritarian, does that make a 'democratic' Revolution automatically right?

Personally, I say the fact that the authoritarian was voted in by the Sulanians makes them more legitimate than the Republicans.

Is authoritarianism really bad if the people ask for it? If the people of Sulania voted in an authoritarian, does that make a 'democratic' Revolution automatically right?

Personally, I say the fact that the authoritarian was voted in by the Sulanians makes them more legitimate than the Republicans.

You also realize that he didn't run on authoritarianism? He ran on lots of democratic reform. He betray his people. Also, the region voted for him via Strawpoll by expnonential numbers. I swear, one would get on top and another 3 would vote Joshua. #UnfallianHackers

Hello everyone!

I just have a little announcement to make. Me and Penguania And Antarctica have a great announcement which would be great if you all read. As most of you don't know, Yukona left the ITF shortly before it collapsed yesterday in order to become fully neutral, I also decided that we needed some sort of international regulating body in order to stop the bad things that have been happening from happening?

The international criminal court will be held in Vancouver, Yukona (TBA) and the international criminal court will be held in Icemounton, Penguania and Antarctica. There is a difference, Peng's court will handle the diplomacy-ish side of things, for example if a country has a bit of your land you think is yours, you can take that country to the justice court. This is for international disputes and everything that isn't a direct crime, so for example putting weapons in space/at a border, etc. etc. will all be under the justice court. The criminal court will handle people accused of breaking the universal declaration of human rights (we'll steal the UN one) or committing war crimes. They this would work is an international warrant would be put on your government members' heads, and they would receive a travel ban and a freeze on assets/more if we can think of it. The point is, embargoes hurt the people of the country and the country that is giving it out, therefore it is not in the best interest to enact trade restrictions as a punishment. If any government member that was wanted were to leave the country, they'd be requested by the court to be arrested and extradited by the country they're in and go to trial in Yukona.

Essentially, this is trying to stop people being morons and is purely in character. There are a few things to highlight, though: we won't come after you, this court doesn't have bounty hunters, etc. This is a purely voluntary movement, if a criminal in - say - Latrovia visits Kalaron and Kalaron don't want to extradite them, that's their call. Furthermore, when I say me and Peng head the organisation, it's only where the court is controlled from and located in its self (i.e the infrastructure and buildings, etc). We haven't figured it out yet, but somehow nations will be sat on the jury, act as judges, etc. - so everyone will be involved.

Currently we have Unfallious, Tserra, Baxten, Kumania, Yukona, Penguania and Latrovia ready to be a part of this idea - the point is, join or not, you will still be under the jurisdiction of the court. To explain this, if you commit a war crime, you will still have your foreign assets frozen and a travel ban placed on you - regardless of whether you're in the court or not as its outside of your control. However disputing the charge can only be done by willing members, therefore it's in your best interest to try and make your voice heard.

Sorry if that was a bit muddled and senseless, but hopefully you get the gist. We're not going to be writing out huge law codexes, we'll just be following the UDHR and other things like the rules of war, it's meant to be a bit of a laymans court, we're no experts.

Bugger that! I don't like how you're still putting me under your jurisdiction despite my unwillingness to join this idea.

I read it up until I got to this: "the point is, join or not, you will still be under the jurisdiction of the court."

I don't want anything to do with this. I don't want this court to have any power against me and I don't want to be involuntarily put under its jurisdiction.

honestly this international courts are a disgrace to the free world. they subject smaller nations and coerce them into acting in ways only supported if they are in approval of its members. subjecting non participants to your courts is pretty bad. and you call yourselfs "free"

It's Lat who is in charge of the Forums, though the President has power there too.

The President is no doubt being taken up by highschool, since in the US we're in the middle of finals and he likely didn't see.

Except they weren't.

The Sulanian National Party ran on the ballot of democratic change, Authoritarianism initiated by someone who lies about their party is hardly democratic.

I don't want anything to do with this. I don't want this court to have any power against me and I don't want to be involuntarily put under its jurisdiction.

The point is if you have chemical weapons, you will still have a travel ban put on you by the willing countries that are adhering to the court (same goes for foreign assets). Ultimately, you don't have to join it or be a part of the group, nor do your friends you visit have to abide by the law as well, it's purely voluntary but if you visit a country that's part of the court they may extradite you or freeze your assets? Does that make sense, because you really don't seem to be understanding stuff

I don't see the issue. It's like real nations being subject to the International Criminal Court. Acts a layer of realism to NS. PLus, the panel of judges/nations are supposed to be impartial arbiters in disputes between nations. You wont be subject to any court ruling unless you are personally part of the case and thus affected by it. Just don't piss off other countries. :P

Still, no thanks from me. I do not see a benefit to it other than some self-righteous feelies.

Plus me and Peng, as holders of the court, will have to be neutral, we can't go joining the ITF for example

I mean, it's the same as...you know...getting embargoed by people?

It's basically a group you aren't forced to join, but the decisions of the group are binding to those within.

Ergo: If you are found guilty of war crimes, those nations who are a part of it will then freeze your assets and ban your citizens.

Again, same as an embargo between nations, ITF did it.
