Bill: Military Resolutions
Details
Submitted by[?]: Militarist Polity
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: October 2736
Description[?]:
| The monarchy of the empire deserves a powerful military and a legitimate brigade of strength. Although this is true, the pacifist, isolationist ideology of the Monarchical Equity Party brings more funds, more concentrated power, no unwanted loss of resources and unnecessary attention that makes of us more of a target rather than a peaceful, prospective and successful empire. |

| Message | You're saying if these pass, then no one will bother us? We'll all be save? These laws are radical, even the Radicalists Movement have voted against this. The current laws will strip Hulstria's ability to protect not only ourselves but other nations we are obligated to defend by treaty. |

| Random fact: Particracy allows you to establish an unelected head of state like a monarch or a president-for-life, but doing this is a bit of a process. First elect a candidate with the name "." to the Head of State position. Then change your law on the "Structure of the executive branch" to "The head of state is hereditary and symbolic; the head of government chairs the cabinet" and change the "formal title of the head of state" to how you want the new head of state's title and name to appear (eg. King Percy XVI). |
