[Discussion] Cultural Symbols and Heritage Act (TBA 2018)

[Amerion]

With the Regional Currency Act being under consideration, it seems only appropriate to expand on other aspects of the region's culture and heritage - namely, the flag and coat of arms.

There may be other symbols which we should add to this bill and I encourage everyone to suggest any that come to mind.

I don't see a need to rush this so the bill will remain on the floor for as long as needed. Just add stuff as we go along.

Just food for thought on this. I am thinking of adding a holiday section, declaring certain days regional holidays, and stating that on these days, each citizen will receive like a 1000 feather payment by the government.

I like the holidays, we can do when Laz was made and when Imki took the WAD(Call it liberation day or something lol)

and like Amerion suggested on discord we should get some cool coat of arms thing if we can find soemone that can do it for us.

I've amended it to add regional holidays, entitlements, and a regional time zone.
