Bill: Constitution of The Solentian Republic
Details
Submitted by[?]: Democratic Progressive Party
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This bill is a resolution. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: November 2118
Description[?]:
| I don't think any nation in Terra has done this. We should come up with a constitution which would regulate certain things that we can regulate and such. Like if Article 1 was "There shall be no religion in Solentia", then we could not pass legislation allowing religious schools, or prayer in schools, or churchs. Tell me what everyone thinks. >>>>>>>The Calling of the Constitutional Convention<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<, Those who vote yes on this bill are saying that they are willing to host a constitutional convention. Article One: The Constitution will be a binding agreement to all parties in The Solentian Republic Article Two: All decisions need 3/4 of the active parties to pass Article Three: Each active party recieves One vote. |

| Message | We should set some inital guidlines. 1. For a bill to pass you must have 3/4 majority (Considering we are disallowing certain bills to be passed) And I guess that is all. Does everyone agree with that? |
| Date | 01:04:43, September 28, 2005 CET | From | Solentian Corporate Communist Party | To | Debating the Constitution of The Solentian Republic |
| Message | 3/4 of voting members or of all members? Also, will we still be using our seats or just parties? |
| Date | 03:59:20, September 28, 2005 CET | From | Democratic Progressive Party | To | Debating the Constitution of The Solentian Republic |
| Message | I say we use just parties. It will kind of be like an upper house. What does everyone else think |
| Date | 07:02:39, September 28, 2005 CET | From | Solentian Corporate Communist Party | To | Debating the Constitution of The Solentian Republic |
| Message | Not an upper house. This is just a constitutional convention like the founding fathers did for America. We shouldn't create a second legislative body. This is just to draft a constitution... |

| Random fact: When it comes to creating a Cultural Protocol in a Culturally Open nation, players are not necessarily required to provide a plausible backstory for how the nation's cultural background developed. However, the provision of a plausible backstory may be a factor in whether Moderation approves the Cultural Protocol if players in surrounding nations question its appropriateness for their region of the game map. |
