Alright, give a description of your nation's system of governance.

A Monarchy on the Federal level, with Advisers that are partially elected in National election, and on the state level, Their Congresses are elected by their constituents, to Life terms, or a recall which requires 60 % of the constituency to approve of it, with a Life term, a By-election is held to replace them.

I like it. May I join? And maybe instead of having no currency union, we can have an opt-in currency union.

Considering almost nobody would "opt in" to such a union, there's really no point having one.

I would opt-in, and I'm sure that many people would like the ease of trade coming with such a union.

It wouldn't be much of a union with only you involved, would it? We pretty much agreed beforehand (on IRC) that we didn't want a currency union.

It might be a good idea to have an official application for new members, so that we could have a somewhat easier time deciding who to let in.
