The Convention on Off Site Property Security

Preamble:

We, the undersigned, disgusted with the inexcusable practice of forum crashing and its attendant evils, wish to use this treaty as a means to work for the eradication of the practice.

Definitions:

Crashing: any action which could cause a forum to go out of service or lose information, including: the deletion of posts, the deletion of the forum, spamming, or any other act of this kind.

Legal: In accordance with the rules of Nationstates as set out on the site.

Off-site property: Any forums, websites or Wiki pages owned or maintained by a Nationstates nation, organisation or region.

Signatories: The regions and nations who sign and the organisations on whose behalf they sign the treaty.

Spamming: Any action undertaken by non-region nationals to waste space on forums or to cause forums to crash. This includes any attempts to force a DOS error on forums and any attempts to flood the RMB of a region which is not your normal abode.

Phishing: Any attempts to gain forum controls or passwords by deception, especially by posing as administrators or moderators.

I

We, the undersigned, do agree to adhere to all the regulations set out below and do hereby accept the right of all nations, regions and alliances to create and maintain off-site property without hindrance, annoyance or any behaviour which could prevent the free exercise of this right. We commit to specifically refrain from all forms of forums crashing, spamming and phishing and condemn these acts as illegal and destructive. We also agree that no such act shall be ordered, condoned or accepted as legal by us or those nations and regions whom we represent and influence.

II

We agree that proper geopolitical requirements and cooperation are a key to preventing those who engage in acts proscribed in this treaty from continuing to do so. Signatories to this treaty agree to multilateral cooperation and further agree to enact laws against acts proscribed in this Treaty on a regional or organisational basis as one of the requirements for full membership. To fulfill the second requirement of membership we further agree that nations and entities that engage in these acts will gain no safe haven in member regions and organisations. To that effect we assert the right of all members to bring charges and try those that engage in these acts within their court system.

III

In order to be a member of this Treaty, a prospective member region or organisation must meet the above requirements of Section II, ratify it within their region or organisation and send a legal signatory to post their acceptance of the Treaty terms within the ACCEL and TWP areas where the original Treaty will be held in trust for all member regions and organisations. This treaty shall be binding and shall remain in effect from the time a signatory is added to the list, to the time they post a request to leave the Treaty. While the decision of a signatory to leave this treaty shall be unfortunate, it shall not be construed as support for, or intention to commit any of the acts condemned in this treaty. This treaty shall be considered supplementary to and not a replacement for any treaty in force between any and all of the signatories.

IV

Given the scope and purpose of this treaty, signing the treaty does not necessarily mean that signatories are in political or diplomatic agreement on any other matter bar the matters attended to in the text of this treaty. It is the hope of the signatories that, given that forum crashing may affect regions of all sizes and political views, this treaty shall be signed by as many regions and organisations as possible. Any and all signatories are hereby granted the right and encouraged to invite others to sign this treaty.

The Constitution of Lazarus
Mandate 6.0 revised

Preamble

Recognizing the unique and inherent responsibility of authority in Lazarus, we lay forth the following government, to be known as The Lazarus Mandate, along with such policies that will ensure efficient management and orientation of those nations that find themselves amongst the community of Lazarus, whether they are reborn or immigrants.

The Delegate

- The Delegate will serve both roles of being the region’s representative to the WA and, at the same time, the official head of state of Lazarus. He/she will be responsible for voting on and discussing WA resolutions with the respective nations of Lazarus. The Delegate will also be responsible for maintaining the region’s World Factbook Entry and for helping to promote activity on the Regional Message Board.

- In any case, the Delegate may be removed from office with a call from the legislative body of Lazarus following the official impeachment procedure.

- Any Delegate not elected by the Emerald Council will not be recognized as the legitimate ruler, and in such a situation, the Interior Commissioner takes over, unless the last legitimate Delegate is still around and is willing to resume the responsibility of the office.

- If in any case the Interior Commissioner is also absent, the following will be the succession of office:
Exterior Commissioner
Activity Commissioner

- Along with the Interior Commissioner, the Delegate exercises oversight of the Emerald Cabinet, ensuring that the members maintain their offices properly and actively, thus the Delegate may meddle with the affairs of the Emerald Cabinet whenever he or she pleases. The Delegate also has the final say whenever he or she chooses thus being able to fill in a role if need be. The Delegate may appoint a secretarial position to his or her office but not such which may overlap the responsibilities and privileges of the offices of the Cabinet. The Delegate may not remove nations out of the Emerald Cabinet; only the Emerald Council has the power to do so.

- The Delegate may veto any legislative act and will count as an equal member of the Emerald Council. The Delegate has the authority to review and approve applications to the Emerald Council.

- The Delegate shall have the ability, as representative of the region, to negotiate treaties or alliances with any region in the world of NationStates. While he/she may negotiate such treaties, he/she cannot sign them until the Emerald Council ratifies them.

- The Delegate is responsible for maintaining the defenses of Lazarus and the Emerald Horde. In addition, he/she shall gather such intelligence necessary to the defense of Lazarus.

-The Delegate shall be elected in a term of 6 months, and elections for such shall be held in first week of the months of September and March, and shall not have any term limits.

The Interior Commissioner

- The Interior Commissioner will be the elected head of the Emerald Cabinet and shall act as the official liaison between the ministries, the Delegacy, and the people of Lazarus. The Interior Commissioner also exercises oversight of the other ministries, ensuring that the members of the Emerald Cabinet maintain their offices properly and actively. The Interior Commissioner may not remove nations out of the Emerald Cabinet; only the Emerald Council has the power to do so.

- The Interior Commissioner will serve, as an alternate, if the Delegate should become deceased or impeached.

- The Interior Commissioner is responsible for ensuring that all election guidelines for public offices are followed, and the mechanisms for declaring candidacies are properly maintained.

- The Interior Commissioner is charged with receiving and accepting applications to the Emerald Council. Additionally, he/she will maintain Council records and voting procedure. He/she wil also maintain the Council roster.

The Emerald Cabinet

- Any nation may be elected to the Emerald Cabinet, assuming there is a vacancy, providing that said nation:
1) Has been registered on the regional forums for 2 full weeks.
2) Is not serving as the Delegate.
3) Is a member of the Emerald Council.
4) Is not deemed to be of conflicting interests.

- Nations will be elected to the Cabinet every 3 months, which shall be held during the first week of the months of March, June, September, and Decemberin accordance with the official election procedure. They shall also have no term limits

- In the event that a member of the Emerald Cabinet:
1) Becomes absent on the forums for more than 7 days without prior notice,
2) Leaves Lazarus for a period that exceeds 3 days,
3) Has his/her principal nation deleted through inactivity or misconduct,
Then any member of government may present a motion to the Emerald Council to expel the idle member. A Cabinet member is considered absent without notice if he/she fails to post the details of his/her absence on the forums prior to leaving the region. If a Cabinet member is planning an absence which shall exceed a period of one week, he/she must notify the region, and the Delegate and/or the Interior Commissioner will serve in his/her absence.

- Any member of the Emerald Cabinet has the option of appointing a deputy to aid him/her in his/her ministry duties during the course of his/her elected term. Deputies must be approved by the Delegate.

- In addition to the position of Interior Commissioner, the Emerald Cabinet will be comprised of the following positions:

The Exterior Commssioner

- The Exterior Commissioner will head the department of foreign enticement and relations.  He/she shall also have the ability, as a representative of the region, to negotiate treaties and alliances with any region in the world of NationStates. However, these treaties and alliances must be ratified by the Emerald Council and signed by the Delegate before they can be considered official and take effect.

- The Exterior Commissioner is responsible for founding and maintaining embassies in all available or diplomatically related regions. He/she may appoint ambassadors to aid him/her in this duty.

- The Exterior Commissioner will distribute and post the regional news in all of the region’s foreign embassies as it is produced by the Activity Commissioner.

- The legislative power of the impeachment of a government officer including the Delegate shall follow these steps:
1) Charges against a government officer or the Delegate must be brought forth onto the floor of the Emerald Council by a member of that Council in good standing.
2) The charges must be seconded by 5 Council members before it is brought to a full Council vote.
3) If the vote ends in at least 60% in favor of impeachment, then the officer in question will be brought to trial before the Council to determine innocence or guilt.
4) If the officer is found guilty of breaking a law as stated in the Lazarene legal code by 80% f the standing Council, then the Council must discuss and vote upon a sentence.

- If a member of the Emerald Council becomes inactive for 30 days, he/she can be removed from the Council. The Interior Commissioner will submit a list of inactive Council members at the end of each month to the Emerald Council, who will then discuss and decide which, if any, should be removed from the Council for their inactivity. A Council member is considered inactive if he/she has not been present on the forum for 30 days.

Ancient History of Lazarus(2005); by Lies Incorporated

Lazarus, first regarded by the world solely as the home of newly ressurrected nations, but now recognized as a breeding ground of revolutionary thought. During the times of stagnancy, Lazarus was home to fewer then 200 nations. After securing the Lazarus Delegacy, and establishing the Lazarus Mandate, the region began a steady expansion, and regularly exceeded the 500 nation boundary.

After serving for 49 days as UN Delegate, Lies Incorporated, the first Lazarus Mandate UN Delegate was betrayed and overthrown through the machinations of the absurd and inactive New Omnivaro. For more then three times the length of the Lies Incorporated delegacy, New Omnivaro and his staff of pretenders, spread lies and frivality. After the first spark of rebellion was lit in Lazarus, Lies Incorporated returned amidst a flurry of discussion, to resecure the delegacy.

During these tumultuous times, the law breaking nation Vesoul secured the delegacy through the exchange of endorsements with native UN nations. His delegacy lasted less then a week though, as his crimes were revealed to UN authorities swiftly by Lies Incorporated.

Lies Incorporated ascended to the delegacy once more, and held it for nine days before returning to service in Gatesville as the General of its vast Militia. In his sted, he left Palmer Eldritch, an alter ego to serve as Prime Minister, as well as Baribeau to hold the delegacy as the second Lazarus Mandate Delegate! Though the government of Lazarus was yet to take shape, long time Lazarus nation Darnand stepped up as Minister of Defence, to aid Baribeau in his regional duties with Lies Incorporated's departure.

After a nearly four month delegacy, Baribeau relinquished his post and was succeeded by Peace Loving Sex Fiends. During this time, the world Administration granted regional controls to the Lazarus Delegacy, and for the first time we had power over our security and information. Though not dissolving the Lazarus Mandate, Peace Loving Sex Fiends imposed strict endorsement regulations while maintained limited activity on the forums. After a slightly more then two week delegacy, Sex Fiends was once again replaced by Baribeau.

During the Sex Fiends delegacy, Lies Incorporated also returned to the region and began invigorating a series of new government reforms culminating with the third revision of the Lazarus Mandate and the first widely supported design for a government. Around this time, Darnand was removed from his office as Minister of Defence due to unfortunate unavailability, and replaced by Hongus.

Only two days after Baribeau retook the delegacy, Lynnaka, operated as an agent of the DEN, took the delegacy. Thanks to the efforts of the Emergency Auxiliary Army, and a small contingent from the North Pacific, Lynnaka was removed from the delegacy once again in favor of Baribeau.

During DEN's Lynnaka Delegacy, Baribeau appointed the first High Councilors of the interim High Council: Lies Incorporated and Zervok. Only a day later, PeoplePie was also appointed to the post. Around this time, Peace Loving Sex Fiends also begin a campaign of mistrust with Lazarus' new allies, seeking to undermine the stability of their friendships.
