1. Autocracy: We do hold elections, but the non-democratic actually pertains to the Premier. The Premier isn't voted in, but rather selected from the Top 5% of the Government.

2. Corporal Punishment: We only execute certain people, but only with the International Committee's approval. Most of our executions have been those who murdered members of the Coltsov family and other officials.

Anything else Jas?

1. What do you mean by 'Top 5%'? Top 5% in power? In wealth? In prestige? In seniority?

2. I don't have a problem with capital punishment in your nation (executing people); I have a problem with corporal punishment (whipping, paddling, spanking, etc.).

1: Oh... my bad. I wasn't thinking clearly. The Top 5% of the Government is basically the Coltsov family, the highest-ranking military officers, and the highest-ranking members of the Communist Party.

2: Oh.. uh...I must be sleepy. The only "physical punishment prisoners receive is a rifle stock to the back if they refuse to keep moving. Our gulags aren't prisons, but rather a camp of sorts. Either join the military and serve your nation, or you can be used as a miner or some such.

Nuremgard wrote:Seems odd that you have more of an issue with corporal punishment than capital punishment.

lol. I see your point. Capital punishment I see as a debatable issue when used to punish a crime, and I'm still kinda on the fence with that. In contrast, I don't see much justification for corporal punishment, considering the research on its many negative effects.

Forced service? Yes. We have everyone go through boot camp, but we only take those willing to kill/be killed as front line troops. The rest are either National Guard or Reserves. (National Guards and Reserves are only a 1-year tour, but you can re-enlist. Front-line is a 2-year, but no re-enlist...rather, you have to opt for an extension of your service time.)

I recently got an issue that ended up deregulating all drugs and pharmaceuticals, so I am creating a whole pharmaceutical industry around commercial production of "illicit" drugs that are now available over the counter...

Gleemonex is basically an aderall and Xanax cocktail, QueRelief is Queludes in injection form, NaseItall is meth and Ephedrine in a convenient nasal inhaler, I am working on a heroin based cough syrup right now...

My Gran gave me her cash to pay her electricity bill today. She told me to keep the change for myself to get a roll for breakfast. I decided to put the change into the British Legion's poppy appeal instead. A small amount but still contributing. My Gran's older brother served in Cyprus and died in action there in the 50s.

When I put the change into the tin, the woman behind the counter said, "that's too much." I replied "well it's for the boys isn't it?" (Forgive my sexism, I know women serve too, but it was just a reaction.) What I wish I had said:

No amount is too much for those who give their lives for their country.

Nuremgard wrote:The new policy page is very cool and useful but I learned a few things about my nation.

Nuremgard does not allow smoking, even in private (which is bizarre since I thought I only banned it in public areas) and it has no judiciary. Don't ask me how that works.

Also don't ask me how Tangshan can allow same-sex marriage but have gay relationships illegal at the same time. And apparently Tangshan has no prisons.

And for some reason, the game thinks Saor Scotland is an autocratic monarchy.

While this is a cool new feature, I can already tell it's going to get under my skin lol.

I’m already confused about how my nation can even exist. Like, we abolished the court system, have no police, but yet have compulsory military service and excessive political freedom.

Oh, and not even to mention mandatory organ farming, ban on reproduction, and a ban on smoking (yet drugs are legal?).

This is why I support giving money to defense orientated programs, honestly. It's not just that programs like the F-35 create a more lethal force, but that it creates a more protected one by default.

The A-10 isn't survivable. The F-16 will hardly be survivable in the near future. Having a plane that's stealthy and fast and gets "the job" done is intrinsically going to protect the troops more than a plane that gets shot down. God forbid the troops that called in the firesupport mission had actually needed it too, because without that F-35 there'd be more casualties.

Basically, even you're not a military 'sparg, I encourage you to hate the man named Sprey and give money to veterans.

Absolutely, though I've had problems with the unfortunate lack of disabuse that government has when they unironically cut programs meant to improve the Soldiers chance of survival after declaring their support for the veterans of any conflict.

Veterans deserve serious care, and in my opinion we should try as much as possible to make sure that every soldier becomes a veteran as well.

My Uncle Mac served with the Life Guards, part of the Household Cavalry. He sadly passed away around the time I was a really young lad, so I don't remember him, but apparently he had the most fantastic Burns Nights, the whole of my Dad's side was so jovial back then (quite a lot of death has since marred the relations). He served in the Suez Crisis as part of a motorised reconnaissance unit. My Grand Dad served in the RAF purely on a brief conscription, he never saw action but we share a love of 1950s and 1960s British military aviation, and I love him dearly. My other uncle, Bill, on my Dad's side was deployed to Malaya during the Malayan Emergency and served attached to a Gurkha and later a Rhodesian group, I've looked through his photo album and it's very brutal reading and looking, the stories he has are quite remarkable.

"Property rights advocates and drug law reformers are up in arms this week. In the largest criminal asset forfeiture in Hyderbourg’s history, the immense mansion of prominent citizen Alvin Woofsdale was seized after his nephew was arrested for dealing drugs. With the property already at auction and the legislature twiddling its thumbs, as usual, your chief of staff invited the loudest voices into your office to vent their opinions on the matter."

2) Why was anybody in trouble for selling drugs, drugs are completely legal in Hyderbourg

“All of this is too complicated,” interrupts Mark Commodus, an imperious-seeming minister, “and this right here is why people are so darn sick of all these courts and legal shenanigans. Seems like any way you slice it, dumb rules get in the way of justice. I propose a third way: bring back trial by ordeal! Let the accused wrestle with a tiger, and if they win they didn’t do it and get to go free. If they lose, we bury their remains in a shallow grave. It’s a foolproof system that our ancestors used for a thousand years, and I’ll tell ya, they didn’t waste a pretty penny on it!”

My principal foreign policy goal as Chancellor is to reinforce valuable alliances as well as negate those that are functionally defunct to focus on the aforementioned.

Sadly after communications with many individuals within the region, I have come to the conclusion that the first step towards this goal is to disaffirm the Sister Region Treaty with Libertatem that I ratified as President of Libertatem almost a year prior.

Article I


The people of both regions shall have unrestricted passage between theirs and the other region. This may be suspended in the event of a military emergency as determined by the legitimate military and government authorities of each region. The government of the other region must be informed when this is the case.

Article I is problematic for various reasons, firstly by asserting unrestricted access between Libertatem and the CoFN through the means of a treaty, we assert that there is not free passage between regions with which we do not have a treaty. This clause is also nonsensical because both Libertatem and the CoFN have open borders and that would be the case regardless.

Article II


If a citizen of one region would find it pleasurable to temporarily (longer than 12 hours, shorter than 14 days) to travel to the other region, that region's foreign affairs department shall dispense to them a Visa. This Visa shall entitle the nation to all of the rights, legal and military protections, and provisions of a full citizen, excluding the right to vote and hold office.

The CoFN has never taken steps to integrate a Visa system thoroughly, and this article of the treaty has been ignored since its ratification, also conceptually the main point of citizenship is the right to vote, if we bar that from the Visa, they aren’t citizens, just residents. More so, this is only an overly complicated clause that states that residents from each region are warranted residency in their respective sister region in certain circumstances, but we already grant residency to any individual who moves to the region without the bureaucracy indicated.

Article III


The two regions shall maintain physical embassies with the sister region. This will include an Ambassador to the region that shall ensure that the Charter is being upheld, report to the home region, give reports to the sister region, and present their region's delegation in the State Visits (Article IV)

Although I believe that we should maintain physical embassies with Libertatem, as they are a valuable ally of our region, a treaty is not necessary to assert that. Concerning an Ambassador, we have not even remotely begun to uphold that aspect of the agreement, nor has Libertatem. Also if there was an ambassador, I believe that it would be rather useless and serve no purpose as has been historically proven. Nevertheless, I am of the firm belief that a treaty is worthless if not being upheld, since that is the case, there is no reason for it to remain ratified.

Article IV


With a frequency of twice a year both regions shall provide a delegation of officials and citizens to travel to the sister region for an event of culture, government, education, and friendship. The host Head of State/Government shall entertain the delegation while the hosting foreign affairs department shall create all arrangements and details of the event. Both regions must send a delegation to the other region once a year. There shall be two State Visits annually. One in Libertatem of Confederacy leaders and one in Confederacy of Libertatem leaders.

Not only has this visit never happened, this is just so implausible and a huge burden upon our government. We have agreed to a treaty yet not upheld it. At the same time, I do not think we will ever be able to sustain it for some reasons. First, we have not seen the effort to uphold the treaty from Libertatem, especially this aspect; making it virtually impossible for us to uphold it. There is also the simple fact that these visits genuinely lack any purpose other than petty entertainment, no party benefits from these trips, and I’d prefer we focus on region-building than pointless visits.

Article V


In the event that military peril shall fall on one of the undersigned regions, the other region shall be compelled to aid their ally. However, this is only in case of emergency, an ally is not compelled to participate in recreational military operations.

We do not have a military; we also have an active founder, these facts would make such a provision impossible to uphold and honestly, worthless.

With these facts in mind and with no open opposition, I say we have a preliminary vote regarding the manner.

I call upon Flynnvakia to resolve this issue and take further steps to the best of their ability.

Hyderbourg wrote:My principal foreign policy goal as Chancellor is to reinforce valuable alliances as well as negate those that are functionally defunct to focus on the aforementioned.

Sadly after communications with many individuals within the region, I have come to the conclusion that the first step towards this goal is to disaffirm the Sister Region Treaty with Libertatem that I ratified as President of Libertatem almost a year prior.

Article I


The people of both regions shall have unrestricted passage between theirs and the other region. This may be suspended in the event of a military emergency as determined by the legitimate military and government authorities of each region. The government of the other region must be informed when this is the case.

Article I is problematic for various reasons, firstly by asserting unrestricted access between Libertatem and the CoFN through the means of a treaty, we assert that there is not free passage between regions with which we do not have a treaty. This clause is also nonsensical because both Libertatem and the CoFN have open borders and that would be the case regardless.

Article II


If a citizen of one region would find it pleasurable to temporarily (longer than 12 hours, shorter than 14 days) to travel to the other region, that region's foreign affairs department shall dispense to them a Visa. This Visa shall entitle the nation to all of the rights, legal and military protections, and provisions of a full citizen, excluding the right to vote and hold office.

The CoFN has never taken steps to integrate a Visa system thoroughly, and this article of the treaty has been ignored since its ratification, also conceptually the main point of citizenship is the right to vote, if we bar that from the Visa, they aren’t citizens, just residents. More so, this is only an overly complicated clause that states that residents from each region are warranted residency in their respective sister region in certain circumstances, but we already grant residency to any individual who moves to the region without the bureaucracy indicated.

Article III


The two regions shall maintain physical embassies with the sister region. This will include an Ambassador to the region that shall ensure that the Charter is being upheld, report to the home region, give reports to the sister region, and present their region's delegation in the State Visits (Article IV)

Although I believe that we should maintain physical embassies with Libertatem, as they are a valuable ally of our region, a treaty is not necessary to assert that. Concerning an Ambassador, we have not even remotely begun to uphold that aspect of the agreement, nor has Libertatem. Also if there was an ambassador, I believe that it would be rather useless and serve no purpose as has been historically proven. Nevertheless, I am of the firm belief that a treaty is worthless if not being upheld, since that is the case, there is no reason for it to remain ratified.

Article IV


With a frequency of twice a year both regions shall provide a delegation of officials and citizens to travel to the sister region for an event of culture, government, education, and friendship. The host Head of State/Government shall entertain the delegation while the hosting foreign affairs department shall create all arrangements and details of the event. Both regions must send a delegation to the other region once a year. There shall be two State Visits annually. One in Libertatem of Confederacy leaders and one in Confederacy of Libertatem leaders.

Not only has this visit never happened, this is just so implausible and a huge burden upon our government. We have agreed to a treaty yet not upheld it. At the same time, I do not think we will ever be able to sustain it for some reasons. First, we have not seen the effort to uphold the treaty from Libertatem, especially this aspect; making it virtually impossible for us to uphold it. There is also the simple fact that these visits genuinely lack any purpose other than petty entertainment, no party benefits from these trips, and I’d prefer we focus on region-building than pointless visits.

Article V


In the event that military peril shall fall on one of the undersigned regions, the other region shall be compelled to aid their ally. However, this is only in case of emergency, an ally is not compelled to participate in recreational military operations.

We do not have a military; we also have an active founder, these facts would make such a provision impossible to uphold and honestly, worthless.

With these facts in mind and with no open opposition, I say we have a preliminary vote regarding the manner.

I call upon Flynnvakia to resolve this issue and take further steps to the best of their ability.

Interesting, Mr. Chancellor. I see the flaws, but it is my opinion that the previous somewhat inactive leadership of CoFN deserves some part of the blame. For example, as MoFA, I was unaware of its existence. Second, maintaning regional embassies after disaffirming would not be ideal. Of course, if Libertatem agrees, I agree with it. Generally, I agree with you.

PS:TG me the Papers password immediately please.

PS2: I suppose that you agree with the ideas I TGed to all the Government yesterday?

Possibly. Russia itself is taken, but the area around Alaska and the Pacific Northwest of Canada (where the Russians colonized) is available. You can also talk to our region's Russia, Russkov Soviet, to see if you two can coordinate your histories.

I don't like how the Policy Page doesn't distinguish between different types of government. Autocracy means dictatorship, yes, but there are various kinds of dictatorships. Just because a country doesn't hold elections, that doesn't automatically make it an autocracy.

"An autocracy is a system of government in which supreme power (social and political) is concentrated in the hands of one person, whose decisions are subject to neither external legal restraints nor regularized mechanisms of popular control (except perhaps for the implicit threat of a coup d'état or mass insurrection)."

Sounds like a dictatorship and no elections to me.

I'll give you an example. New Salvatore has a strong leader, sure. But overall control of the government is in the hands of a single party. So it is more of a one-party state/oligarchy than an autocracy.

In New Salvatore, blind dates have reemerged as a necessary evil in the quest for love since the government mandated that marriage can only be conducted offline and in person. One of the headlines was, "auto industry signals higher profits." This makes sense as people need to drive around to meet their dates. :P

And Saor Scotland had a bunch of ugly sculptures after a contest so to get rid of them, we sent them abroad to different allies and friends. Branceland sent us back six thousand moose carcasses as a reminder of our "special relationship."
