Promulgated by members of the NGA Constitutional convention on Sep 29th, 2013

UNDERSTANDING that regardless of race, religion, and sex, all members of the NGA are united under one flag to serve the common purpose of advancing the values of the NGA for the greater good of humanity, and by doing so ensure the universal prosperity and security of the NGA's citizens.

HOPING that all nations can strive towards achieving NGA goals, though they will not be held accountable to achieve NGA values should they feel that their natural sovereignty has been violated without expense to fellow nations.

HEREBY DECLARING that on this day September 29th, 2013, the NGA has entered a new phase of its existence, and that all constituents will reap the benefits of justice, security, and democracy.

ARTICLE 1
The Social Contract between NGA Constituents and the NGA Government:
Section 1: Every nation in the NGA is guaranteed the right of freedom of speech and politics, unless the nation has violated the sovereign dignity of another or has threatened to disassemble the Union which was created through this Constitution.
Section 2: That military service will remain open to all members of the NGA, as it is a natural right for one to defend his or her abode. This however, will not be true of nations seeking to destroy the NGA through the manipulation of this right to serve.
Section 3: That the NGA Founder the Silver Bloods maintains the right to forcibly eject any individual from the NGA, regardless of his or her current position.
Section 4: That no nation shall be denied access to the formation of any political party, unless the party has been proven to be seditious by either a judicial, executive, or legislative body.
Section 5: That any nation convicted of a crime will be given the right to a fair and expedient trial, which shall be detailed further in the establishment of the Judicial Branch.
Section 6: That under no circumstance will the NGA undertake acts of unreasonable aggression against other regions. Acts of aggression are defined as declaring war and usurping the opposing region's power without justifiable cause. However, under the following circumstances may this section be dissolved until the end of hostilities: The NGA is attacked by another region, or if the other region's actions run contrary to the beliefs of natural sovereignty and self determination.
Section 6: Every WA member nation is to be given the universal right to vote, unless he or she falls into the seditious category established in section 1.
Section 7: An elected official can hold office for as many terms as necessary, so long as he follows the will of the majority of NGA member states and does not violate any of the above laws.
Section 8: That the Constitution may be amended to better suit the needs of the NGA as it progresses through its existence.

ARTICLE 2
The Communications Code of the NGA:
Section 1: No nation shall in any way directly emotionally assault another strictly on the basis of their political beliefs, and punishments will be dealt accordingly in an expedient manner by either the founder or the Judiciary depending on circumstances surrounding the incident. The founder maintains the right to kick all individuals from the region, but will generally refrain from doing so unless the case has been determined by him to have seditious intent. In all other situations, a civil court case will occur.
Section 2: No nation shall ever insult another nation based on religious views.
Section 3: On handling perceived emotional assaults, when one feels that his or her views have been insulted or slandered, he or she must immediately inform the offending party. If the offending party decides to continue with this path of action, the offended party will stop posting on the RMB, and will submit a complaint to the Supreme Court, the Founder, and the WA Delegate. Based on the circumstances, either an immediate ejection or a civil court case may occur (see section 1 above).

ARTICLE 3
The Mechanisms of the NGA Government:
Section 1: The Majority Time Vote is generally to be used in the Senate. However, should circumstances arise, it may be used elsewhere. The majority time vote involves a 48 hour voting period during which Senators participating will submit their vote regarding a proposal. At the end of the period, if 60% or more of all participating senators vote for the proposal, it shall pass. Otherwise, the proposal will fail.
Section 2: The Shortened Majority Time Vote is generally to be used in the Senate during special circumstances or during periods of war and/or major crises. The shortened time vote involves a 24 hour voting period instead of the aforementioned 48 hour voting period, but otherwise retains all the mechanisms of the previous voting process.
Section 3: The 2/3 Vote is only to be used in special circumstances. The 2/3 vote involves a 24 hour voting period during which Senators participating will submit their vote regarding a proposal. At the end of the period, if 2/3 or more of all participating senators vote for the proposal, it shall pass. Otherwise, the proposal will fail.
Section 4: The Judicial Majority is to be used in the judiciary, but may be utilized elsewhere in an appropriate manner as a simple majority if decided ot be necessary. After a 24 hour voting period during which all justices participating must submit their vote, a simple majority is taken. If a majority cannot be reached or the vote is underwhelming (i.e. less than 3 individuals voted), all inactive justices will be removed and replaced. Should this occur, individuals will be replaced within a day and the judicial majority will be taken again.
Section 5: The Executive Veto is to be given to the the President, Founder and the WA Delegate. An unsatisfactory proposal may be vetoed directly by either one of these individuals. However, if the Senate manages to arrive at a 2/3 vote, then the veto is overruled. This overruled veto cannot be reinstated under any circumstances.

ARTICLE 4
The Treatise on the Roles of the Legislative:
Section 1: A senator is to be an individual responsible for creating the proposals to enhance the capabilities and functionality of the NGA Government. Any individual who has taken residence in the NGA may apply for tentative admission into the Senate, during which time he may not vote or propose any laws. After a period of 2 days, the individual may be admitted into the Senate formally or may be removed by decision of the Founder.
Section 2: No third-part entity outside the NGA shall ever hamper of affect the ability for the NGA Senate to function. That is to say, the Senate is free from foreign interests that could affect its performance as an unbiased organization.
Section 3: That proposals may be made at any point in the NGA Senate's existence, unless a proposal has already been made and not yet been resolved. In this case, the proposals will be placed in a waiting list to be answered according to order of submission. Every proposal must first past a cursory screening by the Founder, Head of Senate, or the WA Delegate for basic grammar, appropriateness, and general relevance to the NGA Constitution. Should the proposal fail at this stage, it must be amended and resubmitted for a second viewing. Should this fail, the proposal will fail completely and will have to be submitted under a different guise for future consideration. Once a proposal has entered the Senate floor, a majority time vote or shortened majority time vote will be initiated on the discretion of the Head of Senate, and should it pass, will immediately become a law. An unsatisfactory proposal may be vetoed directly by the President, Founder or the WA Delegate (once one vetoes, the other 2 lose their privilege to enact their veto). However, if the Senate manages to arrive at a 2/3 vote, then the veto is overruled. This overruled veto cannot be reinstated under any circumstances.
Section 3: If an individual is to be removed by the powers of the senate, the above process must be achieved, but a judicial majority first has to be obtained before the individual is to be removed!
Section 4: Should a law be determined to be redundant, it will be recommended to the senate, where it will either be struck out or amended to become relevant.

ARTICLE 5
The Treatise on the Roles of the Judiciary:
Section 1: A Supreme Court Justice is to be an individual responsible for ensuring that justice is ensured within the NGA. He or she may be sponsored into the position by either the Founder or the WA Delegate, but must have previously served in the Senate for at least 5 days. Upon joining the Supreme Court, the individual may choose to renounce his or her political affiliations, although this is not necessary (but highly recommended).
Section 2: There will be 5 members of the Supreme Court, and they may only be removed with with a proper senate process (see above).
Section 3: The Supreme Court may choose to remove any member of the government with a majority vote and the approval of the founder. Should this be unsatisfactory, the removal of the individual may be repealed with a 2/3 senate vote, at which point the removal may not be reinstated.
Section 4: If a justice is to become embroiled in personal controversy, scandal, or civil lawsuit, he or she will be tentatively removed and another individual will be chosen to step into his position by the same selection method mentioned above. During this time, the standing justice will have all these same powers that a regular justice is entitled to. Due to the subjective nature of the first 2 terms, only the Founder or WA Delegate may issue such an order, the latter of which can be overturned with a senate majority.
Section 5: No justice, even the Chief Justice, will ever speak for the Supreme Court unless a majority vote on the issue at hand has been achieved. Furthermore, no justice shall act as an independent police entity. That is not the purpose of a justice.
Section 6: The implied powers of any one justice may be overturned by the mere power of one official. It may be reinstated at the earliest possible date with a 2/3 vote by the senate.

ARTICLE 6
The Treatise on the Roles of the Executive:
Section 1: The executive branch is to be composed of WA Delegate, the President, the Vice President, the Prime Minister, and the Cabinet. The executive is to remain independent of the interests of foreign entities. However, executive members may serve in the Senate, but will not be allowed to serve in the Supreme Court for obvious reasons.
Section 2: The elections for these posts will occur in a direct and secret fashion. Vote counting and collection outside of NGA-sanctioned entities will result in immediate suspension and possible punishment. That is to say, secret ballot and no preliminary polls unlike real life. Furthermore, political slander during elections will not be tolerated, and individuals who do so will face punishment under the Communications Code of the NGA.
Section 3: Elections are to occur at the start of the month, but may only be sanctioned with the official approval of the Founder. Until then, all forms of voting are to be regarded as null and non campaign related issues to be ignored regardless.
Section 4: The WA Delegate is to be a post that is assigned by the Founder. Under no circumstances can the WA Delegate be removed by any other body of the NGA. However, should the Founder CTE, the WA Delegate position becomes similar to that of the president and any individual may be removed by will of either the Legislative or Judiciary Branches. The WA Delegate's duty is to maintain order in the NGA and to act as a leader second only to the Founder himself. However, the WA Delegate may not actively affect the functionality of the NGA government, unlike the Founder. The WA Delegate may initiate military operations as necessary in order to defend the interests of the NGA (as can the Founder). However, the WA Delegate may lose his powers with a 2/3 vote and will not have them reinstated until the founder returns and decides on the issue.
Section 5: The President is the chief executive of the NGA. He utilize his veto and will maintain order within the executive branch. He may also deploy the NGA SOC with the approval of either the WA Delegate or the Founder himself. Inactivity of over 3 days will result in immediate termination of duties.
Section 6: Declaring war (when mobilization of over 30 individuals occurs) will have to be submitted in the form of a proposal to the senate. Only the President may propose declaring war, and even then may be overridden by the WA Delegate, Founder, and/or Supreme Court.
Section 7: The Vice President shall advise the President and take over his post upon his command. If the President is incapable of doing so due inactivity or termination of command, the VP shall directly assume office until the next election day.
Section 8: The Head Minister: it is understood that the Head Minister's primary role is to command the Departments of the NGA. That is to say, any pressing issues from the departments should be forwarded to the Head Minister first for a reading before being sent off to the Senate (HM may not veto the proposals). He may also create peaceful diplomatic missions and shut down the RMB during times of crisis. Abuse of this will result in an executive judgement by the Founder. The Head Minister will also handle crises that may arise (if the President or VP are both inactive, both temporarily and permanently).
Section 9: The Minister of Internal Affairs: The MIA's primary job is to observe immigration, maintain positive relations within the NGA, monitor the RMB, and watch for signs of vandalism. He or she may also advice other ministers on internal lawmaking. However, the MIA may not set up diplomatic missions.
Section 10: The Minister of Foreign Affairs: The MFA's primary job is to maintain friendly relations with other nations, including creating diplomatic missions as necessary.
Section 11: The Minister of Defense: The MFD's primary task is to report alarming instances of aggression, and to propose military actions to the the President and the Military High Command. He may shut the RMB if need be, but may not declare war or mobilize military forces in cases of emergencies. Abuse of this will result in an executive judgement by the Founder.
Section 12: The Minister of Arts and Culture: WIll handle information regarding media, Senate and Judiciary Statuses, seal designs, holidays, etc. Broad description that requires suitable artistic skills to be had.
Section 13: The Minister of Education: Will promote education within the NGA. Can coordinate efforts to help educate members on NGA values and laws, and can help to invite and or assist nations new to the region. Has general control of educational initiatives in the region.
Section 13: The Minister of Miscellaneous Matters: Will attempt to solve any issues that do not fall under the jurisdiction of the above NGA ministers and streamline the NGA bureaucracy in general.

The Voting Act:
1) The Voting process will be a ballot vote.

2) Candidates may only run for 2 positions at maximum.

3) There will be a Ministry of Voting Affairs (MVA) that will be put into effect before upcoming elections. The ministry will consist of the following:
3A) There will be three members on the DVA.
3B) These members can only be appointed by the W.A Delegate and president. The W.A delegate can appoint one MVA Minister. The President can appoint two MVA Ministers.
3C) DVA, once established, will be responsible for:

- Creating the electronic ballot (using Survey Monkey).
- Will telegram every W.A member of the NGA the link to the ballot (using Survey Monkey).
- Will set election dates and times (keeping with the traditional start of month dates in most cases).
- Will call for re-election if need be (any exceptional cases)

4. All Non-WA members of the NGA may vote as well, but must sign up directly on a designated thread in order to receive the link to the electronic ballot. In addition, they will receive a basic background activity check to ensure that they are actual primary nations, and not puppets or something of the like. These checks will be handled by the DVA.

Ratified August 16th, 2013

Fourteenth Amendment Treatise on Government Powers and Roles
1.) Introduction:
a) It is understood that there are three separate, intrinsically independent components of the government: the Judiciary, the Senate, and the Executive Branches. This is henceforth established as an undeniable truth that cannot be overruled in any circumstance by any branch of the government. Based on the said premise, it is further noted that no third-party entity outside the government shall have the ability to aid or hamper the mechanisms required for the government to function. That is to say, the government shall function autonomously without any external aid.
b) Given these truths, it is thus concluded that the following too shall be true, because they are based on the previously agreed on premise.
2.) Mechanisms:
a) The 2/3 vote is a mechanism that has been created to ensure the functionality of the NGA government. When a 2/3 vote in the Senate is initiated, voting will be open for 3 days (in accordance with the NGA election period). Within those three days, senators may choose to vote yes or no. At the end of the period, the votes are gathered, and the ratio is calculated. If 2/3 of delegates that have voted agree, the proposal will pass, and vice versa.
b) The 70% vote is the same as the above, with only a minor percentage change.
d) The veto may be issued within 2 days of a successful 2/3 vote. Afterwards, it may not be issued in any way that would disrupt the passage of the proposal at hand.
c) The majority vote is a mechanism that has been created to ensure the functionality of the Supreme Court. When a majority vote is initiated, voting will be open for 3 days. Afterwards, the majority vote shall be calculated. Should this fail to yield results due to inactive justices, a proposal to replace said justices must be initiated in order to maintain a functioning government
3.) The Senate:
a) it is understood that any individual who has taken up residence in the NGA for 5 days may choose to serve on the senate. At the discretion of the founder, the individual may be added to the senate. If this is deemed unacceptable to the senate, the election of said individual may be overturned with a 2/3 vote.
b) It has further been determined that the senator is an individual with the right to propose and/or strike laws. With a 2/3 vote, this law may be sent to the President, who may veto the law. If the veto is to be overturned, a 70% vote is necessary. A reading by the Supreme Court and a simple majority (if objections are raised) will be the final phase in the proposal of any law.
c) A senator shall not act in the interest of any individual outside of the government.
d) As these are the people that made the laws, they shall also interpret them in any instance where the meaning is questioned.
e) A senator may also submit a proposal to forcibly remove an individual from the government. This will require a 2/3 vote within the senate and the approval of the founder of the NGA.
f) In cases where the senate cannot be gathered in time to prevent damage done by one individual, the founder of the NGA may take direct action until the next possible date. Then, a proposal shall be made to redeem said individual.
4.) The Judiciary:
a) There are to be 5 members on the Supreme Court. This has been previously established in the Judicial Branch Act.
b) Any rulings, regardless of importance, must be agreed upon by a simple majority of the Supreme Court. This is to be the primary purpose of the court, in addition to those outlined within the Judicial Branch Act.
c) A ruling may be thrown out with a 2/3 vote from the Senate and the approval of both the founder of the NGA and the WA Delegate himself.
d) The Judiciary's primary purpose is to preserve the union. No justice shall act without the written approval of the other justices. A justice shall not maintain the purpose of being a police entity.
e) Hence, a justice may not issue any ruling until 3b) of this clause has been carried out in its entirety.
f) A Justice may propose to remove an individual from his or her post. If this is the case, a prosecution case must be launched, first requiring a 2/3 vote in the Senate and then a final ruling by the Supreme Court.
g) The implied powers of any one justice may be overturned by the mere power of one official. It may be reinstated at the earliest possible date by a 2/3 vote by the Senate.
5.) The Executive Branch:
a) The President: It is understood that the President is to be the popular leader of the NGA, having been sworn in after elections proper. The President has, like Senators, the right to propose and make laws. He also has the right to veto unsatisfactory proposals and set up peaceful diplomatic missions.
b) The President should under no circumstances ever declare war. However, he has the right to shut down the RMB as needed.
c) The Vice President: This individual shall advise the President, and take over his post upon his command. If the President is incapable of doing so due to inactivity of over 7 days or termination of command, the the VP shall directly assume office until the next election day.
d) The WA Delegate and the Leader positions are non-negotiable permanent posts. Their powers are currently unlimited (by mere virtue of game mechanics), and it is in their wisdom that we put our trust and confidence. However, the WA Delegate may be removed by the leader if necessary.
e) The Head Minister: it is understood that the Head Minister's primary role is to command the Departments of the NGA. That is to say, any pressing issues from the departments should be forwarded to the Head Minister first for a reading before being sent off to the Senate (HM may not veto the proposals). He may also create peaceful diplomatic missions and shut down the RMB as need. The Head Minister will also handle crises that may arise (if the President or VP are both inactive, both temporarily and permanently).
f) The Minister of Internal Affairs: The MIA's primary job is to observe immigration, maintain positive relations within the NGA, monitor the RMB, and watch for signs of vandalism. He or she may also advice other ministers on internal lawmaking. However, the MIA may not set up diplomatic missions.
g) The Minister of Foreign Affairs: The MFA's primary job is to maintain friendly relations with other nations, including creating diplomatic missions as necessary.
h) The Minister of Defense: The MFD's primary task is to report alarming instances of aggression, and to propose military actions to the the Senate and the Military High Council (comprised of the Generals). He may shut the RMB if need be, but may not declare war or mobilize military forces in cases of emergencies.
i) The Minister of Intelligence: Collect information on aggressors within and outside of the NGA. Receives orders from Generals as necessary.
f) The Minister of Arts and Culture: WIll handle information regarding media, Senate and Judiciary Statuses, seal designs, holidays, etc. Broad description that requires suitable artistic skills to be had.
g) The Minister of Education: Will promote education within the NGA. Can coordinate efforts to help educate members on NGA values and laws, and can help to invite and or assist nations new to the region. Has general control of educational initiatives in the region.
6.) These truths that have been set forth will provide the basis for the NGA government. It may receive amendments as necessary, but its core purpose is to define the roles and powers of each NGA government branch, and should never be utilized for the purposes of furthering private or third party interests. This treatise, unless suitably replaced, shall remain active ad infinitum, and should never be declared null unless in extraordinary situations. Hence, it is concluded that the NGA government, should it be run according to this humble amendment, shall be one to serve, protect, and better the lives of its people according to the undeniable NGA values and rights.
