Are you a democratic society?:Yes
Do you agree to uphold this charter?:Yes
Are there any modifications you would like to be made to this charter?:One question what i the stance on ponies as sapients?

I'm sorry, but we must agree with Whairtia and Crystal Spires. As long as you are taking such a hostile stance towards others based on their species, we cannot properly recognize you as a member, though you may still apply as an observer nation if you wish.

"We of Crystal Spires agree with the assessment by the United Socialist States of Whairtia and we believe that Soviet Canuckistan is not a good candidate for this organization. We say this knowing their affiliation with MAAPS and their inability to justify their blatant speciesism when confronted by it during the meetings with the Union of Freedom and Equality. We suspect egregious shenanigans from them in the future, and 'tis a matter of safety that they not be accepted. Also we of Crystal Spires would like to inquire about the status of our application and are bewildered by the notice that says we have been accepted, and yet we are not in the member list."

Accepted, also, does anyone have anything else that they believe we should discuss during the first meeting? We would like to set it up soon, though we are looking for a general consensus on what fellow members would like to discuss.

Perhaps we should discuss trade between different members and what about forming an organisation wide foreign policy.

That seems like an appropriate topic. If you have any other ideas please feel free to share them.

[Aestoria]

May I ask how and when will we be notified of the first summit?

[Threlizdun]

The meeting should occur relatively soon. Telegrams will be issued to all member nations when it occurs. Another question we must ask though is what everyone's thoughts on observer nations attending the meeting are.

[Crystal Spires]

They should be allowed to participate, but not vote on big issues.

Head of States or lack thereof: N/A
Head of Government, or lack thereof: N/A
Economic System: Many Undead Gypsies put on musical and street performances, cabarets and carnivals wherever they're roamin'. Trade within caravans is usually non-monetary, services are traded for goods and Vice-Versa.

While you say it is nice to see another anarchist society, I say it's nice to see a Romani society, probably because this is the first Romani nation I have seen.

Whairtia, it really isn't necessary for them to have to submit that information. Not everyone has a factbook, constitution, copy or well thought out history. The fact that they are currently a democratic society is acceptable. Anyways, you are accepted Southern Babylonia.

By "basically" I didn't mean we're "basically" a democratic society (we're a total one in all fields), I meant we "basically" became one in 1956. I can write down my history if you want, I've thought it through before.
