Choice of Government
~*~*~*~ Furtherment of Democracy ~*~*~*~ Strong ~*~*~*~
The Member Nations of the World Assembly:
Convinced that the form and nature of a nation's government cannot be effectively or sustainably imposed over the long term by an outside force;
Recognizing that the form and nature of a nation's government must ultimately be derived from the will of the people, who are that nation.
Aware of the following universal truth: that every person who lives under a government wants their government to be responsive to their needs, respectful of their liberties, and capable of changing for the better;
Proceeding only upon those basic premises, the General Assembly resolves as follows:
Article 1: Every member nation must ensure that their form of government (whether communism, liberal democracy, psychotic dictatorship, or anything besides) is the form of government freely chosen by the people of that nation.
Member nations may comply with this requirement in any way they choose, subject to their national and international law, so long as their system produces reliable extrinsic evidence (such as election results or equivalent data) clearly showing how the form of government was chosen by the people.
Article 2: Every member nation must ensure that the people of that nation have regular, periodic opportunities to influence the national government by directly choosing the national leaders who are empowered to (1) make or change the laws of the nation and (2) enforce the laws of the nation.
Member nations may comply with this requirement in any way they choose, subject to their national and international law.
