President Hamilton can declare war and launch a surprise attack at the same time.

First, The Imperial Court votes after being presented with a case by the Supreme Imperial Master. If more than 50% raise their swords, the Supreme Imperial Master works with the Imperial Minister of war to write a highly insulting paper declaring war.

We usually try our hardest to resolve the international problems using the magic of friendship, but if we absolutely need to take military action (if we are attacked, for example), then Twilight Sparkle shall consult with Princess, then she'll send the opposing nation a declaration of war state of unfriendship between the two nations.

Under normal circumstances cabinet is authorized to make decisions on declaration of war however there are many nations listed under "diplomatically and politically insignificant" and cabinet doesn't bother with those nations and let minister of defense take the decision. 50%+ vote is required for the declaration to pass (Dictator's vote counts as 5 votes; Prime Minister's vote counts as 3 votes) however cabinet rarely goes to voting and a unanimous decisions are reached after discussion.
In case of special circumstances, dictator can authorize declaration of war alone and seek verification from cabinet latter or not seek approval at all however it is rare and is considered as an option to be used in case of emergency or if cabinet is unable to take decision. It was put in place in 1904 when cabinet was unable to reach decision even after 16th voting.
Another circumstance when Dictator can authorize declaration of war alone is if state of extreme national calamity is place: in which case all of constitution is suspended and dictator holds sole power.

Military engagements without an official state of war may be ordered by the Revolutionary War Council. War itself is declared with a 2/3 supermajority in the Supreme Soviet as well as the Council of People's Commissars' consent.

To prevent chaos and loss of life, the Chancellors, which usually possesses powers alongside the thre branches of government, are completely forbidden to declare war.

Only Congress, by a two-thirds supermajority of the realm's five hundred Senators, can declare war. If TurtleShroom is immediately attacked, a Call of the House is issued. This means that law enforcement- or the military, or both -now has the authortiy to arrest the Senators, wherever in the country they may be (and if abroad TSSSS spies, will grab them too), and drag them kicking and screaming to the legislative halls, where they will be compelled to vote, immediately, on a declaration of war. If the Congress can not be convened within twelve hours, the nation may automatically go to war on decree by all three of the Chancellors, to prevent a loophole form being exploited where the Congress is all killed below quorum.

The last time TurtleShroom declared war was in 2009, against Gnu Linuxia, before TurtleShroom had an intelligence agency and LONG before the Great Awakening, where the military was gutted.


To declare war, the Declaration must have the words "Declaration of War" in it, must name the belligerent nations, institutions, organizations, or concepts to be dealt with, and they must actually say the obvious: that they are declaring war against {enemy}.
The resolution will then be forwarded to the Chancellors. If a majority of these three agree to go to war, war begins immediately.


TurtleShroom can not use the military or anything in it without an official declaration of war, even for basic purposes.

Sometimes, this will be used to supplement the civillian police. In the 1960s, when crime and hippies became a pervasive problem, TurtleShroom declared war on crime. That declaration wasn't lifted until 1971. Another example, in 1810, was when the executioners of the nation went on strike for lack of pay. TurtleShroom declared war on the vacant executioners' posts, and the military staffed the prisons until the strike was settled. The "war" lasted six months.

Current "wars" include the "War on Drugs At the Border", which authorized and created the TurtleShroom Border Patrol and allowed use of military surplus to defend TurtleShroom. This "war" was declared in 1988 and is still ongoing. Our second current war is the "War on Illegal Immigration", which was declared in 1999 and is still ongoing. It also uses the Border Patrol and the military.

If, for whatever reason necessary, Yvenia were to go to war, the Kah'ra is responsible for signing the declaration of war and for submitting it to the Riyuil Assembly, whom will then either sign or veto the declaration. If the proposal receives more than 2/3rds of the votes in favour of warfare, then the Yvenia Royal Army and Royal Navy shall head to war with the opposing nation with the Kah'ra as Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces.

Declaring war

Postby Corrica » Thu Jul 07, 2011 2:09 pm

In order to declare war the Mayor- President will meet with the council of five in order to get a decision to declare war, but any attack is normally met with war.

If were attacked its automatic war.
However, if we need to go to war for whatever reason, it can be done with 2/3 vote of the council. Or the leader can override that and just go to war.

When the Emperor finds it nesscary he can declare war. IF the declaration needs to be made quickly he can just declare the state of war, but if he has no imedate danger then he will call a advisory coucil where they shall discuss and vote. No matter what the vote is the Emperor has Veto power.

The Emperor appears on all Vytalian Imperial Broadcasting Establishment channels, and intones the traditional the traditional words expected of all Emperors upon a declration of war:

'Grab your glocks when you see Vytalus, call the cops when you see Vytalus, you shot me 5 times but you punks couldn't finish, now you about to feel the wrath of a menace'

These words recall the deeds of a mythical Vytalian hero of the far off '90s' era, and how he returned from his enemies' attack to exact a terrible revenge...

The Noble Families that wish to go to war with a person,organization,or nation will file a request to the Lord Protector or current monarch.Then,after the request has been approved the families will gather there forces and go to war.Any family that does not wish to go to war may opt out but to do so would make them many enemies among the other nobles.

Our constituion vests the power to declare war with the Grand Duke, but it may only be exercised upon consultation with teh Council of State (cabinet) and with the Duma (parliament.) Presumably a simple majority vote would suffice, though politically it would seem very very unlikely to go to war without a very strong consensus.
