It is not high, it is the highest ceiling that can be applied as a customs tariff for trade between the member states of the organization, and every nation has the right to limit or cancel it, but not to exceed this ceiling.

Mr Livius Sergius examines the papers accumulated in front of him and then raises his eyes to the gentlemen and ladies present, saying:

Well, ladies and gentlemen, we want to address a topic of great importance, and it includes the laws, the rules and the principles that we want to put in place for the membership of the organization, as we have seen there are some incomplete paragraphs of some of the principled laws that we have put in place, as follows:

Regarding the constitution

- All member states are bound by the organization’s constitution and laws.

- All member states have the right to participate in public affairs by voting in elections.

- All member states have the right to stand for elections and hold office and positions on the Executive Council on an equal footing.

- The Executive Council has a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 12 member, elected by direct and free universal suffrage.

- All fascist, dictatorial and authoritarian regimes implicated in flagrant violations of international human rights treaties and international trade-related agreements are excluded from membership.

- The Executive Council has the right to cancel the membership of any country involved in these violations.

- Any draft constitutional reform must be approved by two thirds of the Members of The Executive Council.

As for the minor laws:

- Airport links are not considered a commercial activity as much as they communicate with other nations, unless the airline company details are explained.

Minister of Trade Brandon Gates rushes into the conference room. He scrambles to find his seat and sits down. He says "Sorry I'm late, from what I hear this meeting so far is about a Maritime Security force, or IFTC member nation Navies in general, Tariffs, and IFTC laws. Is that correct?"

- Forestry Products and wood 2 %

We can agree to all the aforementioned percentages.... but I think that Wood, Timber and Forestry Products should have a higher cap.... what are the chances we could raise it closer to 5%?
