A proposal to bring Peace, Justice and Equality to the Egyptian people.
Egypt's obligations- Egypt shall no longer be an absolute monarchy. In the context of this, the Egyptian Aristocracy shall no longer hold a monopoly over government affairs. The powers of the Pharaoh will be limited, and expressly defined in a constitution that shall be drafted in consultation with the Egyptian people.
- The Pharaoh will remain the fount of honour, and all executive power shall originate from him. However all executive authority shall be formally exercised on his behalf by elected representatives of his subjects. His integrity is inviolable and he shall be immune from prosecution from all civil cases. The dignity of the Pharaoh will be above politics, as a consequence he will remain neutral in all political matters. The Pharaoh will remain the ceremonial Commander-In-Chief of the Egyptian Armed Forces, however executive authority with regards to the army shall be exercised by the Egyptian Prime Minister and his cabinet, or any other competent elected representative of his subjects.
- A parliament shall be formed that shall represent all parts of Egypt equally.
- The Egyptian Aristocracy shall be represented in a numerically inferior Upper House of Parliament, with the common citizenry represented in the Lower House of Parliament. The legislative superiority of the lower house shall be enshrined in the constitution, and the upper house cannot veto bills proposed in the lower house except for in specific cases. Bills however can originate in either houses of Parliament. The Pharaoh and certain members of the Royal Family will be allowed to sit in the upper house should they desire to do so, they however will not have the power to propose changes to the law.
- The Egyptian Prime Minister shall be formally appointed by the Pharaoh, who is obliged to appoint the leader of the largest party attaining a minimum of 51% of the seats, or the leader of the largest coalition having at least 51% of the seats in the Lower House of Parliament, which will be elected by the people. The method of election shall be defined by the constitution of Egypt.
- The Government shall be free to adopt any state religion, however the sanctity of the freedom of religion shall be maintained in perpetuity.
- The military shall be explicitly forbidden from representation in parliament and shall be under the direct command of the Prime Minister, who at his discretion can appoint a member of his cabinet to lead the army on behalf of the Pharaoh.
- The new Egyptian Parliament shall legislate to liberalise the Egyptian Economy and allow for foreign investment in several sectors of Egypt. The Parliament shall be empowered to decide which sectors of the economy can be excluded from foreign investment.
- Egypt shall adopt a Human Rights Act that will ensure equality to all, regardless of their birth.
- Slavery shall be expressly outlawed, and strict punishments will be handed out to violators.
- A comprehensive legal system shall be instituted, at the apex of which will lie the Supreme Court of Egypt. The Pharaoh shall remain the formal head of the Supreme Court, however he is obliged to act on the advice of the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. The justices of the supreme court shall be appointed by the Pharaoh, on the advice of the Prime Minister, or any other competent authority as described by the constitution of Egypt.
- Control of the Suez Canal, and its maintenance shall be solely exercised by the Suez Canal Authority, the chairman of which will be the Prime Minister. The Powers of this organisation shall be expressly defined in the constitution of Egypt.
Signatory's obligations- The sovereignty of Egypt shall be respected by the international community.
- Sanctions against Egypt shall be phased out.
- Egyptian Assets that were frozen, shall be unfrozen.
- The international community shall provide legal, technical, financial and logistical support to the Egyptian Realm to undergo the monumental reforms.
- The plans for the Eilat Canal will be suspended.
- The International community shall invest in Egypt to assist in its speedy modernisation.
- Medical aid shall be provided to Egypt's former slaves to ensure that they are healthy.

The Egyptian Realm wrote:The Egyptian Pharaoh said, "If you really want it that way." He then snapped his fingers and the doors closed and locked before anyone could leave.
"Now, we shall continue negotiations and come out with a final deal. I find it insulting and disrespectful for you all to get up and try to leave a peace conference minutes within its start, just because of differing first drafts of a peace treaty. Oh, and don't try calling or radioing for help. You won't get any service in this building due to the thick stone walls."

A member of the King's guard sits fidgeting about as he looks at a dozen green screens. He was on Royal duty, he tried to convince himself that it was an honour, but he was tired of the monotony of his job, ever since the attempted assassination of the Queen and the Crown Princess, security for the Royal Family was drastically increased with the movements continuously monitored. The problem was that Anderson was forced to look at a screen for the past year, and nothing had ever happened. As his thoughts drifted, he noticed something weird. The screen that showed a blip that represented one of the Royals suddenly stopped transmitting or responding.
That's weird he thought. Surely its just a technical error he reasoned, But what if it isn't? I should just inform someone, if only to save my own skin he thought as he got up to meet his commanding officer.

"This is just outrageous. I am Wilhelm, Prince of the Greater Nordic Union, Duke in Schleswig-Holstein! Do you even understand who I am or the significance of this? I demand to be let go at once, or I promise you, Egypt will not see the last of me" said an angry Prince Wilhelm.

"You shall be allowed to leave once the negotiations are over. Now, how can we synchronize the two drafts? Firstly, are there any attendees wishing to drop the financial support clause?"

"The Greater Nordic Union does not negotiate with terrorists. You should really.." said Wilhelm before he was cut off by the Foreign Minister "Your Royal Highness, maybe you should sit down and ..." before being cut off himself by the Prince, "No, I will not calm down. As a member of the Royal House of Schleswig-Holstein-Gothenburg, I am a symbol of the Greater Nordic Union. Not to forget, I am a representative of the Emperor himself. This will be construed as an act of war unless you let us go immediately." said a now furious prince.

The Egyptian Realm wrote:"Allowing a canal to be built for smaller ships is the most I would allow on the issue. I have already agreed to reform Suez Canal fees and I have outlawed slavery. Large and medium sized ship passage is a very big factor in our economy, so I can not allow your canal to service them."
"Also, why do you want a government to change when it has prospered for thoussnds of years? Umlike what you think, we do not persecute anyone except law breakers."

Any progress this country has made is truly remarkable, given its penchant to be ruled by fanatics." pointing towards the English foreign secretary "My friend, you are much too polite."
"So, you want a canal and I do not want to lose money or business, so how about a compromise......You build a canal for small ships and personal craft, and my canal will focus on the medium to large ships. This way we both are happy."England and Ulster wrote:"You do not have the authority", began the Foreign Secretary, "to order us around and tell us how to operate on our own soil just as much as we do not have the right to tell you. Palestine is sovereign English territory and, as such, you should respect our right to build a canal through it if we wish."
"You have operated today like a tyrant; we do not wish to use your canal and this new canal is more of a personal mission for the UK rather than an international effort to discredit Egypt."
The Dutch Hegemony wrote:"Ah, good evenings! The government of the Netherlands apologizes its late arrival!" Says Dutch dignatary, Prince Fiso of Orange. He suddenly notices that the guards lock the doors behind him. He is taken aback by this.

"We do not wish to rely on you for our trade to our territories in the far east; this is more of a domestic mission for us more than an international obligation. We will not let you order us around and we will not let you tell us how to govern our own territories!", the Minister of State shouted.
OOC: It has already been established that communication through the stone structure is impossible.The Greater Nordic Union wrote:The Office of the Prime Minister
"It has come to our notice, that communication with His Royal Highness, the Prince Wilhelm, as well as the members of my Cabinet has ceased all of a sudden. I do not wish to cause alarm but my government is doing all it can to ascertain what is happening. An hour ago, we stopped receiving location data from the Prince. While this could have happened on accident, my government is to assume that the life of the Nordic Delegation is in danger.
Until further notice, please do not engage in the spreading of rumours. My God be with our fellow Nordboers in Egypt, if their lives are under threat"
Stockholm Palace
"... and that Your Majesty is the current situation. We have been able to gather that the Prince is being held hostage via the communication chip set installed in the badge of the Royal Order of the Seraphim. Communication had ceased due to a malfunction, but it somehow sort itself out and we are monitoring the situation. Meanwhile, the Prime Minister has been informed and he has issued a statement to reduce panic amongst the public but he has requested an audience with you."
"Very well. I was opposed to tampering with the badge, but I suppose it has proven itself. I know why he wishes to come, perhaps I will go down in history as the monarch who sees war for the first time since 1818! Ask my Chief of Staff to coordinate the movement of the Imperial Regalia to the throne room, and send for members of the Privy Council. Oh and please don't tell Mamma about Wilhelm, at her age she really need not be told such a grave matter until we are certain."
