The Empire of Kantrias | FA Update 29th of February Edition

[Revall]

Following a vote in favor of 20-2, the Constiutional Convention has approved the final draft of our new governing constitution, formally called 'The Statues of Nobleslaw'.

Ah excellent choice for the name of your constitution

[Cerian Quilor]

It's the name that won. Other options included just 'Constitution IV' and 'The Instrument of Government', but that's the suggestion that won.

[Sygian II]

I think he was saying that because... well.. "Noble."

Revall = NoblePhnx aka Noble.

Ah. See. I don't know all the people these days. I've been gone for so long

Hence the friendly reminder.

'The Statues of Nobleslaw'

Statues

Are they marble or limestone?

[Cerian Quilor]

I'm not sure what you're talking about.

Don't take this typo for granite, even if sometimes it's gneiss to pick on people.

Sorry, I'm putting you between a rock and a hard place on this one.


To cut to the chase and prevent what would otherwise be a very entertaining threadjack, you wrote statues when you meant statutes.

Not to throw stones at your usually keen sense of sarcasm, he was sarcastically indicating he had edited the post to say "statutes."

I just wanted it recorded for posterity. Additionally, as a point of order, if the Constitution was actually voted on and passed as "The Statues of Nobleslaw" then Cerian has no right to edit it. The Council of Nobles alone has the power to amend the Statues of Nobleslaw.

Hmm. We're not sure though that Cerian didn't make the typo himself, so it may not be as set in stone as it would seem.

Hence the "if". Come on Cormac, people not following the letter of the law makes me lose my marbles.

You've really carved out a nice constitution here, good luck with it!

I know. I edited it and then made that post to pretend it never happened.

No, it wasn't passed as the Statues, as you can see in the pinned dispatch on the WFE.

[Consular]

Even if it was passed with a spelling mistake, allowing yourself to get tied up in legalism over a minor edit is just silly.

If it had been passed with the error, I'd want an amendment.

[Consular]

Why? Just correct the mistake.

[Cerian Quilor]

Because I'm in a forum Constitutional Monarchy that likes legalism

[Consular]

Well it strikes me as an incredible waste of time, but to each their own. I swear NSers get more pedantic when it comes to legalism than irl lawyers.

It gives the Council something to do once we get past the standing orders, criminal code and other big acts

[Revall]

The Council of Nobles alone has the power to amend the Statues of Nobleslaw.

This whole sentence right here just strikes me the right way

[Cerian Quilor]

The election results are in, and Kantrias now has elected its Council of Nobles and Lord Chancellor.

Serving in the Council will be Caldemar Leutria (21 votes), of the centrist Insanity Party, Teach (16 Votes), of the liberal/populist Party Against Monarchy, Alphaeus (16 Votes), of the conservative/Constitutional Royalist Delphinium Coalition, and Pysrilexot (14 votes), who ran under no official party, but generally ran on a pro-Monarchy platform. 89 Votes were cast, with each Noble being allowed to cast up to four votes.

The Lord Chancellor is Christopher Bishop, who ran under no party. He beat the Insanity Party's Gibraltica by a vote of 12-11.

A more detailed update covering the entire election will be forthcoming.

He didn't found it. The Insanity Party is a Kantrian Institution, going back all the way to the first election during late october/early november 2012. Their obsession with poptart cats, rainbows and combating the Jello Menace is one of the things that helped make Kantrias, Kantrias.
