National News Radio: A large-scale infrastructure project will soon be underway. During this time, for safety reasons, the island will be closed to tourists and foreign news agents. We do expect a minor loss in revenue due to this, but this will be greatly offset by both the long and short-term benefits of the infrastructure project. If your job is negatively impacted by the island closure, please send a letter or verbal message via courier to the Council so that we can add you to the list of beneficiaries of foreign aid.

"Wow, way to neuter every spacefaring nation in the WA," drawls Iksana. "A 100 person fleet is basically one spaceship for some of 'em, I reckon. And let me tell you, if a big giant space rock were bearing down on my planet, the kind that could wipe out all the life on it, I would be mighty pissed if someone were to not divert that rock on account of some legalistic garbage forbidding interference."

"Quite possibly the only reasonable mandate in this entire proposal. Except for that bit where it makes diplomacy between interplanetary powers completely non-existent."Keshiland wrote:b- It is forbidden to interfere the course of any civilization from another planet.
"Again, planets are not particularly talkative, as a general rule. Also, is that seventy-two before landing? I would generally consider the alien invasion to have started by that point."Keshiland wrote:c- All visitors to another planet must let the host planet know at least 72 hours in advance.
"'Return to your home planet and destroy it.' Enough said. Not that, again, a giant floating rock would actually be capable of giving such an order."Keshiland wrote:d- All orders or requests made by the home planet to visitors must be obeyed.

a- No nation may claim uninhabited planets as part of its territory.
"This is both a vast overreach and completely pointless. Congrats on combining the two. Somehow, I doubt that those nations outside the Assembly would quite appreciate having territories they may or may not have claimed pulled from them by legislation that 'does not apply to' them.

"...Wait, you fixed that problem I was discussing earlier, just for the purpose of this one set of clauses. Also, as a previous ambassador pointed out, there is such a thing as an 'emergency', which you fail to account for in any way.

If there is no one on that planet then how can they claim it LOL. All they would need is 1 life form to be on the planet for it to be theirs.
