Together we travel the farthest.”
Overview
We are the Confederacy of Democratic States (CDs) - an intergovernmental alliance for tiny and small democracies and city-states. Our mission is to band and represent the weak, the obscured, and the defenseless on the global stage. It is also this organisation’s duty to protect against Fascism, Communism, totalitarianism, and revolution; however, it is also this organisation’s duty to ensure and monitor the integrity of its members. Too long has democracy been befallen by irresponsibility and apathy. Let us see who and what you are and we will secure your membership into the CDs.
Commandments
I. Must be a direct or semi-direct democracy.
II. Must have no more than 15 million people.
III. Must have more than 3 or more parties.
IV. Must not be a puppet - we are watching you.
V. Must have no ties to a large nation.
VI. Must be stable - no transitional states (i.e. civil war).
