Those defined as "Coloured" may only carry standard firearms. Those persons defiend as "Gishotoi" may not participate in the police services. Article 4.1 - There will be separate public schools for each of the three races in Gishoto. Students of different races will not be permitted to attend the same schools as those reserved for members of other races.

| Random fact: Players who consent to a particular role-play by acknowledging it in their own role-play cannot then disown it or withdraw their consent from it. For example, if player A role-plays the assassination of player B's character, and player B then acknowledges the assassination in a news post, but then backtracks and insists the assassination did not happen, then he will be required under the rules to accept the validity of the assassination role-play. |
