Did anyone other than me actually base their nation's sliders off their political compass test results?

Yes. I got -9.99 Spam/Moderation

This game is going to be one metric ton of fun.

Or just go Roman on them

 

[Ailedhoo]

The Imperium of Man looks forward to its expantion. Our empire will cross the world to make us of wealth!

Gilmore will oversee Peel becoming the fourth Rome. May our power bring the resources we bring under our influence to use for our commercial gain!

Glory to the Emperor, who rules with Divine Right!

 

[Jehoshua]

Im afraid the title of Rome is already claimed by the First Rome, which as you can see has risen to prominence once more.

We of the Imperium seeks to note the examples of Rome, Constantinople and Moscow, the three Romes. That is why we claim the will to make the fourth Rome. However we are understanding of your concern and note that the Empire of Man has no intrest in threatening the First Rome.

Let both our Romes lead to glory!

Union of Nations

The Union is much weaker that prior iterations of MP due to the mercantile republics’ control of trade and politics.

So, a Constitution. A fully organic UN would get nowhere fast, so this won't be much different. I just need a semi-functional UN so I can allot Influence bonuses.

Spoiler :

We the Nation-States of the Earth, to form an international body, peacefully mediate disputes, and ensure international security and stability, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the Union of Nations.
Article I: Functions

I. The Union may propose international legislation, but to avoid tyranny, it is up to the member nations to enforce it.
II. The Union is to be given authority to settle disputes over territory, but to avoid interference, member states must choose to abide by the resolution governing such.
III. The Union may demarcate the world into “territories” for convenience.
IV. The Union may condemn states for unruly behavior, disruptive to international security.
V. The Union’s purpose shall be a place for nations to mention their grievances and suggest remedies to such.

Article II: Procedure

The Union’s legislation is to be proposed by one of its three Secretaries; the Secretaries may choose to unilaterally veto any proposal during this time. If no Secretary rejects the bill, it is to pass to the World Assembly for consideration.

The World Assembly may then choose to reject or pass the resolution, with votes either being entirely for or against the proposal. A majority of three-fifths is required to pass any and all measures, to protect against an incensed delegation.

Article III: Secretariat

The Secretariat is to be composed of the General Secretary and two Deputy Secretaries.

I. The major powers, as the arbiters of success, may put forth candidates for the Secretariat, with the backing of two other major powers. The General Secretary is to be elected by popular vote worldwide for a term of five years. Votes are to be cast with all qualified choices in order, in instant runoff fashion; voting shall not be compulsory. The most popular set of choices from a country are to carry all the votes from that country.
Ia. A power must either announce candidature or endorse; it cannot do both.
Ib. One endorsement per nation.
II. One Deputy Secretary will be selected from the list of candidates for General Secretary by sortition and shall serve for one year.
III. The second Deputy Secretary shall be selected by sortition from the major powers at large and shall serve for one year.
IV. All three Secretaries may not serve consecutive terms.

Article IV: World Assembly

The World Assembly is to be composed of all the world’s nations, major and minor. There are 500 seats in the Assembly, with 250 awarded based on population, and 250 awarded based on the number of UN-designed territories held. The World Assembly may vote on all matters that manage to pass the Secretariat and are within the scope of the Union’s authority; a three-fifths majority shall be required to pass the Assembly.

Article V: Supreme Court

The Supreme Court of the Union of Nations shall be chosen by sortition from the highest ranking judges from each country and be composed of five Union Jurors. The Union Jurors shall have the power to render resolutions unconstitutional, clarify ambiguities that may turn up, and appoint cartographers to partition the world into territories for electoral purposes.

Article VI: Prohibited Measures

This Union, as the arbiter of international peace and fairness, may by no means:

I. Impose fines, dues, taxes, or any other sort of confiscatory measures.
II. Establish, equip, train and fund a standing military to enforce its decrees; national sovereignty is to be respected above all else.
III. Decree that member states impose embargoes, blockades or take any other action against a member state.
IV. Legalise aggressive action against a member state.

Article VII: Amendment

Should this Constitution be deemed inadequate, it may be amended with the support and ratification of four-fifths of the Union’s membership.

Will we have a social group for this one?

BTW: All of Canada is in our Sphere of Influence. Claim any at your peril.

 

[Tani Coyote]

Possibly. Though the UN's scaled down enough we can probably just have a UN thread.

Oh, it won't be scaled down when I get at it. *puts on legal gloves*

I vote for whichever economic system is simpler.

I didn't base my sliders off my PC because the GM is apparently biased against nations with little to no government as was evidenced by Somalia last time

 

[Tani Coyote]

Thorvald accused me of capitalist bias, actually.

You're biased against everybody!!!

I was joking.

Given how Somalia is in real life, I would say the world is biased against nations with little to no government.

Tani is notorious for being biased against everything.
