The Chairman of the Arnich Communist Party is also the Supreme General of the Army, however, he can't declare war. War is declared by 2/3 majority of Worker's Councils and People's Communes. Each Commune or Council has one for/against vote.

In UP, war is declared only when outside nations are directly threatening the nation or any of it's leading corporations best interests. Or when there hasn't been a war in a while and the arms markets are suffering a glut. Also, war is immediately declared against any nation who threatens those nations to which we outsource labor or whom are primary consumers of Punocratic goods and services. Sometimes, it's declared against those consumers, to raise their demand for Punocratic goods and services.

War will always be declared whenever a Punocrat thinks up a really nifty bit of wordplay that would make a great campaign slogan for a war against a particular country, because it's a capital offense to waste a good pun.

When it comes time to actually declare war, all the major corporation heads in UP gather their lobbyists, who then head down to the capital and decide the matter amongst themselves; rather than having them coerce or bribe senators, they simply cast the votes themselves to streamline the process. War is voted as either "Profitable" or "Unprofitable".

The High Punocrat will always sign a Declaration of Profitable War. He will typically veto a Declaration of Unprofitable War, though he may choose to sign it in event that national security - or a good punchline - is at stake.

We usually try to settle disputes in a diplomatic matter.

If not,

The King places in a vote to the Parliament. If 2/3 are in favor then war is declared by the current Prime Minister.

The First Councilor must sign a declaration of war on behalf of the Commonwealth. Like all statements made on behalf of the Commonwealth, the First Councilor must give the Senate the option to veto the signature of the statement.

We vote on wether or not to declare war. Then we prep our armed forces for the coming conflict. And we send covert forces a few days before the day we declare war on the opposing country to sabotage any WMDs they have.

Megatron gives the order and military operations commence.

When this happens, Cybertron's noncombatant population holds giant parties because they know that this will mean that the Military will be buying billions of Cubes' worth of replacement parts, weapons, blank save disks, and other such things. This in turn will bring life to long-dormant high-speed factories, wipe out the metal glut, and otherwise be great for us. It'll even negate the stigma normally attached to doing "lousy factory jobs," since doing these jobs will be directly helping the nation in its military conquest.

Unfortunately, since Megatron usually ends up paying for giant military engagements out of his own companies' profits, he - surprising as it may seem - is not all that hot to declare full-on war.

Instead, he's more likely to simply put a very high price on the target's resources, sometimes even including its "human resources." This will entice millions of individual Decepticons and raid gangs to go and try to raid the place - all at their own risk and expense.

The end result is often far more devastating than war. It's entirely possible for an enemy to be raided to the bare sand if Megatron leaves the incentives in place for a month or so. Enemies often find themselves completely unable to stop the swarms of raiders, who have no communication lines to cut, no supply lines to block, and no hierarchy of commanders to wipe out. Like the locusts of biological worlds, they all work as individuals, caring only for themselves and their own greed - yet the aggregate of their behavior leaves the enemy with nothing.

Well...there's the normal supporting freedom-fighters and delivering weapons, that and other methods of encouraging the socialist world-revolution are a constant. If any other nation should attack us, the borderguard-troops would respond, and the Grand Council would be notified. The borderguard-troops and the navy guard units will respond immediately, and the council would vote upon activating the strike-fleets and the regular army, including the guerilla-corps. The first conscription reserve would be called to report to their stations and several sets of laws would be activated, such as restrictions in the freedom to travel and harsher security-measures in war-relevant industries. Defense-in-depth and covert-offense, the two main elements of modern voronda warfare, would soon make it clear that attacking us is a grave error.

How can you keep an attack secret if you've had a referendum? If even one citizen of your country has access to the soon-to-be enemy, Internet access, or access to a foreign journalist, the rest of the world WILL find out before the attack begins.

The parliament must vote on it, and if parliament approves of the war the King and Prime Minister must sign it. If all three steps are not met our nation cannot go to war.

The Principality of Fumei maintains a policy of armed neutrality and does not seek to be the aggressor or provocateur of conflict.

However, as part of this armed neutrality policy, Fumei may declare war if it has been attacked. This declaration may be made by the Sovereign Prince/Princess or his/her Regent should the Sovereign be incapacitated or not yet age of majority.

The Arda Tuluvan Empire maintains a policy of armed neutrality and does not seek to be the aggressor of conflict. However, if war is declared then the Central Imperial Committee votes on the declaration as a formality. In the end the Central Imperial Committee will follow the will of the Orsavala(Politburo). Who will then bring the declaration before the Throne and Her Majesty the Empress (may She live forever) will affix Her seal on it and war between Arda Tuluva and our enemy will be official.

"In this vast expanse, that is sheltered by evil and led astray,
she will be the beacon of light in the darkness, to the warriors of the Fëanturi,
and to all who follow the true Path to salvation. With the wisdom of the ages,
she will lead us to glorious victory over any and all unbelievers."

If Geilinor is attacked, a declaration of war is issued with a majority vote in the Representative House. If the nation has not been attacked, war can be declared by a two-thirds vote of the Representative House. In a dire emergency, the president may declare war by invoking Article 3-Section 5 of the constitution.

The Grand Commander or the Chancellor exercise the right to declare full-scale warfare. Often times, Field Marshals and Fleet Admirals are also capable of minor incursions into other nations (or flat-out invasions against smaller countries).

The Continent-State Marquesses can also declare war on behalf of their territories- however, they can only use State Volontari forces to fight. Of course, even the Volontaris are enough to make most of you pathetic Commies run for the hills like the dirty Reds you are.
