Article II - The Government
I. All members have a vote in the council; they are responsible for voting upon treaties, declarations of war and peace terms.

II. The Emperor & Commissioner

The Emperor is the leader of the alliance until they resign, they leave Cybernations for good or are removed by the crimson council. They have full authority over the alliance and can expel members who are considered threats to the alliance’s security and safety (expulsion requires a 75%+ vote from the Chancellors). Also they are permitted to interfere in the working of any department as they see fit. When the Emperor resigns they are given the title “Guardian of The Crimson Banner” and shall act as an advisor to the current Emperor. They will also choose their successor; if they do not then a vote is held amongst the other Chancellors The Commissioner is in 2nd command. If the Emperor resigns the Commissioner becomes Temporary Emperor until a new one is found. He also has large authority of the alliance.

III. Chancellors 5 Chancellors shall be chosen to handle the day-to-day running of the Centurion Brotherhood. They are honor bound to always do what is best for the alliance and not to allow personal grudges to interfere with their duties Chancellor of Diplomacy- Is in charge of Diplomacy and Foreign Affairs Chancellor of Defense- Shall ensure the security and military safety of TCB Chancellor of Economics- Shall be head of Trading and Tech deals Chancellor of Recruitment- Is in charge of the Recruiting office Chancellor of Internal Affairs- Is in charge of maintaining sign ins and applicants ect…

When a Chancellor steps down a vote can be held to replace that position or the Emperor can appoint someone to that position.

4) If needed, the Emperor may create additional ministries. The leaders of these ministries will be considered full members of the Government.

Resignations of Government Officials
Chancellors: Must give a 3 day notice before resignation (allows the TCB populace to vote on a new council member to take his or her place, the king will have final say to ensure continuity and security)

Commissioner: Must give a 5 day notice before resignation (Allowing time for the King to choose a new Advisor and the Council to deem him or Her fit, once again the King has final say)

Emperor: If the King were to resign, he will give a 7-day notice before he resigns. If this happens this will allow enough time for the chancellors and commissioner (now temporary emperor) to assess the candidates and pick the candidates suitable to run. The Commissioner will deliberate the candidate’s abilities to ensure he/she is capable of running the alliance. Then an alliance wide vote will be held, a simple majority is all that’s needed.

Article III - War and Peace
1) The Council may declare war on any other alliance, group, or single nation. A declaration of war is not necessary if The Centurion Brotherhood has been declared war upon or has been attacked without one.

2) The Council may sign any treaty of peace, ceasefire, or armistice as long as it does not require the disbandment of The Centurion Brotherhood. Such treaties shall never be signed.

In case of approval, the King shall receive total power until the incident is over. This does not include the power of amending the Charter.

4) All nations are encouraged to gain access to nuclear weapons. Their use, however, is restricted to the following cases: a) Direct retaliation after a nuclear attack. A member hit by nuclear weapons may hit back the aggressor with their own nuclear weapons. Sabotage against nuclear weapons may be deemed a nuclear attack on a case-by-case basis. b ) Following a direct order from the King or the Minister of Defense.

5) The Centurion Brotherhood disapproves of the practice known as “tech raiding”.

Everything exceeding these limits will be viewed as a rogue attack and treated accordingly. d) There will be no aid from The Centurion Brotherhood, be it military, monetary or diplomatically, in case a raid goes wrong.
