Britishdude Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) Cornerstone Declaration of Existence It brings me great joy to announce that an alliance many of you know as the Christian Coalition of Countries is establishing a foothold in the world of Orbis under the name Cornerstone. The CCC has a rich history that stretches back to 2006, and we are excited to extend that history into the future of Orbis. Charter of Cornerstone §1 - Preamble “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation.â€-Mark 16:15 In these words the member nations promote the belief of the Christian faith and the spread of the Gospel to every corner of the world. This document formally establishes the alliance of Cornerstone. §2 - The Triumvirate A. The alliance shall be ruled by three Triumvirs, of Foreign Affairs, Internal Affairs, and DefenceB. A Triumvir reigns until he resigns, disappears, or is removed.C. A Triumvir may be removed through a motion of his two fellow Triumvirs, backed by a 40% support in vote from the membership.D. When a Triumvir position is vacant, the other two Triumvirs shall appoint a replacement for the position. This replacement is confirmed by a majority vote of alliance membership. If this vote fails, the Triumvirs shall make a new appointment, until one is approved.E. Any two Triumvirs may block any action of the third Triumvir. §3 - The Triumvir of Foreign Affairs A. The Triumvir of Foreign Affairs (ToFA) is responsible for managing all Foreign Affairs matters of the the alliance, and all non-military contact with foreign entitiesB. Any action that would commit the alliance to some policy, such as a treaty, doctrine, or such document, requires approval by a second Triumvir. Likewise, any dissolution of such a document requires approval from a second Triumvir. §4 - The Triumvir of Internal Affairs A. The Triumvir of Internal Affairs (ToIA) is responsible for managing all Internal Affairs matters of the alliance, e.g. economics, membership, and recruitment.B. The ToIA designates who is and is not a member of the alliance. He may add or remove members at will, excepting only his fellow Triumvirs. §5 - The Triumvir of Defense A. The Triumvir of Defence (ToD) is responsible for managing all military matters of the alliance.B. The ToD may, with the approval of a second Triumvir, declare any war. §6 - Other government A. Any power not given explicitly to a specific Triumvir, or to the membership, is held jointly by the Triumvirs.B. Any Triumvir may delegate any of their powers to anyone, except the power to delegate their powers.C. The Triumvirs may exercise any jointly held power by majority vote amongst themselves, and may delegate any jointly held power to anyone by majority vote.D. The power to approve peace agreements is held jointly. §7 Membership A. All member nations in Cornerstone shall behave in the manner befitting a Christian nation and shall not bring shame on the alliance or the name of Christ.B. All members are bound to obey the charter and the legal decisions of the Triumvirs. §8 Charter amendmentsAny member may propose a charter amendment. When an amendment is proposed, the Triumvirs shall hold a poll on the amendment. It passes with a 75% vote. The Triumvirs jointly hold the power to reduce this threshold to 50%.

One who is the shining star, and he will lead you to beautiful places in the search of his own vanity. And when there is no more vanity to be found, he will leave you in darkness, as a fading memory of his own creation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Filthy Fifths Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Abbas is always down to exploit or poach anybod in order to start his own sect. 1 Quote "In an honest service there is thin commons, low wages, and hard labor; in this, plenty and satiety, pleasure and ease, liberty and power; and who would not balance creditor on this side, when all the hazard that is run for it, at worst, is only a sour look or two at choking.
