THE ILLUMINATI

THE ILLUMINATI is a newer alliance that is dedicated to peaceful growth. THE ILLUMINATI has grown relatively quickly, with over 50 members and rising, thanks to the excellent recruiting department. The alliance is mostly made up of newer members so the strength of the alliance is not very strong. However, we make sure to look out for eachother so if one of us is hurt, then the alliance will help them no matter what it takes. The alliance mainly focuses on internal development rather than external, but our Foreign Affairs Department is still working as hard as possible to get our name out in Planet Bob by setting up Embassies in alliances. THE ILLUMINATI is overall a very active, and stable alliance with a steadfast rate in growth. I don't think we are going anywhere.

Amendments

Amendment I If any individual member of the alliance feels that a member of the government besides the Leader is not doing their job to the alliances expectations then they have the right to call a vote for the impeachment said government member. For the impeachment to be carried out their must be at least 2/3 of all votes in the favor of the impeacher.

Amendment 2 In the rarest of occasions if a ghost or ghosts appear in any way, shape, or form in the alliance then they will be dealt with through due process of the law. The only way there can be ghosts in the alliance is if they joined the forums, then formally left the alliance through the said forums but don’t change their Alliance Affiliation after 24 hours of officially leaving the alliance. After 24 hours all members of the alliance will have the ability to vote on whatever conditions the government will allow them to vote on and then whichever response to the ghost that is picked will essentially be carried out by the alliance to remove the ghost, and essentially remove all threats the ghost poses. The voting period will last for three hours before the final decision is made.

Amendment III If for any reason one of the alliances members is attacked by an individual outside force for any reason be it for tech raiding or because the attacked nation actually oppressed the attacker somehow, the attacker will be sent a message in game asking them to stop and to pay reparations of at least 1.5 million dollars if they took tech or money for tech deals, and/or sent the attacked nation into anarchy, depending on the damage dealt by the attacker. If they stop and pay back the money then they will be free from all charges. If they continue, however the attacked nation will be backed by the entire alliance and the Minister of Defense will decide on a course of action to take to defeat the attacking nation. If the Attacker still doesn’t give up then the alliance will send out troops to completely wipe out the nation.

Amendment IV To be able to truly call THE ILLUMINATI a democracy a council of representatives of the alliance will step forward. These Council Members will be representing the large amount of members in the alliance and will vote on whatever issue the government brings forth. They are the decision makers, but, the Leader can override any decision made by them, so they are not too powerful and a system of checks and balances starts to form the basic skeleton of the government. For a non-government member to bring forth issues they must talk to one of the government officials and through them will they address their issue to The Council. There will be 15 Council Members, each one a volunteer. The amount of 15 has been chosen to make possible ‘2/3 in favor’ type votes and to make 50% votes impossible, to prevent ties. The Council Members are considered ‘government officials’ so this allows any member to challenge a Councilman and provides them with a chance at the position of Councilman. A board on the forums will be created and used only by government officials for the council. The board, whatever it may be called, will be used only for the use of voting by the Council Members.

Amendment V There are several groups available to registered members on the forums. Each group has their own rights and regulation assigned to them. The first group available to a registered member is gotten after they apply. The Member group is what makes up the majority of forum members. A Member may apply for the government positions Councilman, and Junior Minister. They may not apply and achieve the position of Minister, or Prime Minister. To advance to higher tier groups the Member, if he so chooses, can go through an academy. While the Member is there they will be added to the groups Student, and Test Taker, both of which are defined in The Academy. When and if the Student graduates they will have attained the title of Senior Member. This group has several more freedoms given to them. They may apply for the government positions Junior Minister, Councilman, Minister, and Prime Minister, but not Leader. The Senior Member is looked to with respect, because of their superior knowledge, but not necessarily because of their superior authority. Ministers have their own unique group. The Moderator title is given to the Ministers of the alliance and they have added abilities pertaining to editing the forums. There are no unique groups for the Junior Ministers and Councilmen.

Amendment VI If any member is caught excessively trolling, intimidating, denouncing, or deriding other members, be it in-game or on the forums, than punishments will be enforced. All punishments are listed in Article Two, Section One of the ILLUMINATI Charter.
