Steel Pact Thread (3.0)

[Crontor]

I just figured if we were all bored, i was thinking though, to control the enemy nations, should i actually make accounts for that purpase, or just represent them through Crontor?

I've an 'ebil' puppet that could be used, if you need it - it has the Soviet Canuckistan flag and everything...

Well, i have the nations already established in my nations history, but thanks for offering. No, i'm just curious if you all think i should create accounts for them.

[New Lusitaniagrad]

So what do you guys think?

Militaristic Fascist "Republic"? I think I am gonna start on the story. Then I could RP my new military on your rp Cron.

Sound good?

Maybe for the major ones, but I wouldn't for every single one - obviously if there was a few. If there is one, I'd create one for it and if there is quite a few then no.

That is my government exactly, military under the guise of a republic. Sounds good, we could find a way to combine them, becuase i like your idea.

I'd probably create them then, obviously all your choice though.

Yea, i think i will, it's just that i have seen so many people argue about using puppets in the same thread.

[New Lusitaniagrad]

I was thinking that it would also be a lower key rp. Character driven, very personal, lots of ambassador observations as they walk down the street, black ops, ect.

More of a violent government reform, rather than a full scale revolution.

All right we will do them separate then, we can do yours first, or mine, but i think we should do yours.

The fact that they would be fighting each other and it is your thread - I'm sure you could get a mod to chuck them out if they started to complain, it is your outcome/role-play anyway so yeah..

[New Lusitaniagrad]

NL how do you write a good charter?

I'm not sure, I guess it just kinda happens. Sorry I know that sounds douchy.

In any case think about him, describe every detail, make him an intricate and deep backstory and make references to it. Or at least that's what I do..........

It was a legacy an English legacy of their late empire, which was adapted during its colonial rule. The Parliament of the Kingdom that meets in the Palace of Rayurêmeo consists of an upper house and a lower house. The lower house is an elected House of Representatives or locally known as La Chambre des Représentants (literally the Chamber of Representatives). The upper house of the latter is the House of Nobles or La Chambre des Précieux (the Chamber of Nobles). The 277 member House of Representatives is elected for a maximum term of 5 years from a single-member constituencies, which were defined by the local population. The 86 member House of Nobles however, sit for a maximum term of 3 years.

Questionnaire:

Is the government involved at all in your economy?
Yes, the Kingdom's government interferes whenever an inadequate efficiency in the self-maintained market occurs. Such failures could include inadequate products are being released to the market or overexcessive, vice-versa. Such crisis generated are believed to have severe impact on the local population. Catastrophic event such as a famine are viewed seriously.

The government takes the responsibility to supply public items such as roads, street lamps, toilets, parks, and etc. Such items are well-maintained by the government and are all free to use by the public. If charges are impose to any users, mild penalties will be enforced. The Laneigetian government also helps the homeless and the jobless to find shelter and a stable career as a part of their enormous welfare programmes.

What is the general opinion of socialism and communism in your nation?
Socialism, if practiced correctly is an effective method of governance and can be praised for its potentials. It helps to tackle injustice dead of its track and everyone are given an equal opportunity. Rewards are also presented equally so that competitions does not occur. This is an effective method in stamping out conflicts as well.

However, the system is easily abused. Power would become too centralized and the dictator would be hard to control. A simple order from the executive would have catastrophic result on the country if it is given incorrectly. Hence, socialism and communism is viewed as a just but ineffective system.

Does your government practice ANY socialist principles?
Yes, since the government viewed socialism as a just system but easily abused, the Kingdom's government has incorporated principles of the socialist ideology into our market economy today. Such principles includes, a universal healthcare system where citizens need not to pay for the treatment involved. There is however, an effective market healthcare system running in parallel. Other could be easily observed by the social welfare programmes provided by the government.

Will you fight to protect your fellow members of the Steel Pact if called upon?
Yes, definitely would. As the Kingdom is accepted into the alliance, Laneige would view fellow members of the Steel Pact as a part of its allies or in informal terms "family". The Kingdom is willing to form mutual relationships with its fellow allies and this would need to be granted opportunity.

Is your nation unstable or at risk of some sort of revolution?
Perhaps not so. The majority of the populace is currently happy with the current administration and the government continues to provides endless needs for the population. It is very sure that, the people of Laneige knows of the compassion the Laneigetian government shows.

Do you promise to be faithful to this alliance, responding to the call of the leader, no matter the circumstances?
Yes, absolutely. It is embedded inside of every Laneigetian as the very basic of principles to remain loyal to your superiors or family members. Under which circumstances such as the leader ineffectively administrating the alliances, the Kingdom would still be a loyal accomplice to the leader, however advising the leader not so if irrational orders are given.

Do you promise to participate in Pact Forums and events, realizing that extended unaccounted for absence may result in the termination of membership?
Yes. That is in fact the reason the Kingdom of Laneige intends to join the Steel Pact alliance. To participate more and be more active in events and forums hosted by fellow members and so.

Do you promise to uphold the treaties and constitution of this alliance?
Yes. (OOC: I'm pretty tired after all the writings and time is running short for me so please do excuse me from now on. Thank you^^)

Do you promise to recognize the alliance, as a defensive one, not seeking large-scale conflict, and promise to, abiding by that, not become a warmonger?
Yes.

I, <Darius Le Mans Audi>, on the behalf of my royal highness, the King of Laneige, promise to uphold all of the promises I have made in filling out this application, and to respect our Constitution, Founder, and other Council Members. By filling out this application, I am intent on joining the Steel Pact in order to end the cesspool of communism that is present in the world. I will participate in Pact events, and notify the Founder if I am to be on an extended leave of absence.

I promise I will do whatever It takes to further the goals of the Pact worldwide.
