Anagonia-Indonesian Empire (OPEN FOR PRESS Q/A)
Posted: Sat Dec 04, 2010 6:22 pm
Jason Paladin had been for several hours with a very important Emperor. The Confederate States had been for several months in cooperation with the nation of Yohannes both publicly through its institutions and through secret military channels with its military involving several covert operations. The main topic of discussion had been the very reason this discussion had been called for. That the Indonesian Empire of Yohannes would formally become a state within the Confederacy. It was an extremely unlikely occurrence for so short an existence such as the Confederacy. Though it was happening and perhaps mainly in part due to the extreme level of trust and respect that existed between both sides.
One of the main advantages of having Yohannes as a state would be having the extra economical muscle in the happenstance situation of a recession. Not only would the stored gold reserves and economical power of the Empire assist the Confederacy through a troubled recession, it would practically ensure that nothing economically could impact the country. That was unless it impacted both economies at the same time. In which case Jason was assured there was a back up plan for that. Though he knew there really wasn't.
During their debate he had carefully created the first draft of the Articles of Statehood. The document that not only would assure Yohannes Sovereignty within the Confederacy, but any others that followed. Emperor Rajino Hamengkubuwono I was concluding the first half of his statement, kindly called "Raji" by Paladin during these discussions, and Jason handed him the document to see. He hoped it would be acceptable.
"Take a look at what I drafted so far Rajino," said Jason as he smirked. "If there is anything missing I think we can change it around."
On this day the 4th of December, 84 After Great Slumber has the leaders of the Confederate States of Anagonia and the Indonesian Empire of Yohannes come together to draft and create these Articles of Statehood from which shall protect all Nations Sovereignty wishing to partake in the benefits and protection of the Confederate States and thereafter any Civilization holding the name of Anagonia. That therefore these Articles shall ensure the rights and traditions of these peoples while they subject themselves to the rights of the Constitution of the Confederate States and the protections and enforcement of the Armed Forces of Anagonia ensured and regulated by the Articles of the Armed Forces of the Confederacy. That thereby shall always a special session of the congressional body be held to regulate, update and ensure the proper wording of these Articles to best ensure the freedoms and enjoyment of life guaranteed by the Constitution of the Confederate States.
Nations choosing to become states within the Confederate States of Anagonia and hereafter any Civilization of Anagonia shall abide and be obligated totally and without exception to ARTICLE II - MILITARY and ARTICLE III - RIGHTS AND LAWS within the CONSTITUTION of the CONFEDERATE STATES, with exception to all other written articles to ensure a proper respect of said member-nations government, that therefore said nation must also recognize the ARTICLES of the ARMED FORCES of the CONFEDERACY as permitted and as relevant to ARTICLE II - MILITARY within the CONSTITUTION of the CONFEDERATE STATES. That hereunto exceptions to this Article shall be made by Congressional Approval based on the special circumstances of each member-nation.
Nations choosing to become states within the Confederate States of Anagonia and hereafter any Civilization of Anagonia shall be considered Sovereign in their own rights. That therefore the only obligation of a Member-nation shall be full compliance to Article I - Constitutional Obligations of Member Nations as thereby written in these ARTICLES OF STATEHOOD. That therefore the Civilization of Anagonia has no right to annex nor take over any institutions held and/or created by these Sovereign member nations or any institution or any program or any thereafter entity. That thereby so long as they abide by ARTICLE I within these ARTICLES OF STATEHOOD shall these rights of Sovereignty be held compliant. That therefore a central Stock Market shall be used, as per any already in existence thereof, that shall therefore ensure the proper trade and economic procedures agreed to thereby the parties of Anagonia and the Member-Nations. That hereunto exceptions to this Article shall be made by Congressional Approval based on the special circumstances of each member-nation.
Nations choosing to become states within the Confederate States of Anagonia and hereafter any Civilization of Anagonia shall be under the rightful protection of the Armed Forces of Anagonia and thereafter obligated to all written rights and laws stated by ARTICLE I within these ARTICLES OF STATEHOOD and henceforth by the ARTICLES of the ARMED FORCES of the CONFEDERACY. That therefore any non-compliance with any part of these written laws and rights shall mean the termination of statehood and protection by said military. That therefore all member-nations shall allow Anagonian Armed Forces in their territories to fully protect and enforce civil protection as obligated by these ARTICLES OF STATEHOOD. That hereunto exceptions to this Article shall be made by Congressional Approval based on the special circumstances of each member-nation.
