Continental Commonwealths wrote:Well, the federal government is a unicameral legislature with equal representation from each Commonwealth that is restrained to passing legislation that has equal influence on the Commonwealths collectively. The Constitution leaves all undefined powers to the jurisdiction of the Commonwealths which, by and large, grants them considerable authority to deal with foreign powers individually.

The federal government reserves the right to declare war and regulate the economy with relation to foreign powers, but nothing is explicitly barring the Commonwealths from doing these things independently as well. So, technically, one Commonwealth could be at war with a foreign entity while the others are at peace, and vice versa.

Looks similar to the CPK: government is vested within a legislature (albeit bicameral) and head of state/government (termed Governor), though equal representation is implemented (the upper house, the Chamber of the Commonwealth, has an set limit of 3 District Governors, each set for the citizens, tribal population, and upper class. The lower house, the Chamber of Representatives, covers the populace as a whole, but strict guidelines attempt to minimize corruption within the chamber, such as vote buying between higher-populated states and lower ones). Legislation impacts the states as a whole, but lack of a consultative document means that ultimately the constituents are granted high levels of autonomy (the federal government itself only exists as a result of the Code of Unity, at least until its dissolution). Consequently, constituent states tend to declare war among one another, yet foreign conflicts are only declared by the federal government. Further complications also exist between the government and the tribal states, which could closely be described as Bantustans - the federal government has set aside land for tribes in the Commonwealth, yet constituent states are unwilling to co-operate with allocating their resources to tribal governments. Ironically, had we all stayed in Montaris, the Commonwealth would be considered a Not So Different micro-confederation of the MSRM, though the divergence would be between the lack of power of the head of state and the constituents, along with the Commonwealth's defining feature.

Nice flag dude! If you have five issues stacked, deal with them all and then have to wait for your next issue, the religion decider can get pushed back. You'll probably get it in the next few issues, if not just report it to the mods - they'll deal with it for you.

Yeah, the special thing about secret services/intelligence agencies is that nobody knows what, where and when they do their missions. Seems someone in the government didn't get the meaning of the name.

Trump isn't a Republican. He may be running as a Republican but he isn't one. Hillary is more of a Republican than he is.
