Federation of Armed Nations (FAN) is a medium sized alliance on the Yellow Sphere.

The Schematic of the Federation of Armed Nations[]

The following is the official Schematic of FAN. While not an actual schematic, schematic is really fun to say and gives the correct impression that this is serious @#$%. The Schematic is the highest document in FAN. All laws and actions must be judged against it. Any law, order, action, decree, or any synonym thereof that violates the Schematic is null and void.

Article 1. Official Statement of Who, What and Why[]

  • The Federation of Armed Nations exists for the purposes of developing itself and her member states. The freedoms, liberty and safety of FAN and her members come before all. We are the self appointed defenders of the right to keep and bear arms in Cyberverse as well as the self appointed big 'ole pimps of gun porn. In both cases we vow to keep the backhand strong.

Article 2. The 5 Freedoms[]

I. The freedom of all full members to speak in a manner, at a time and in a venue that they wish shall not be encroached upon.
II. The freedom of all full members to possess and use any arm they can obtain for the purposes of self defense, defense of others, hunting, recreational purposes, just to watch things blow up or any other reason shall not be infringed for any reason, at any time, by anyone.
III. The freedom of all members to defend themselves and allies will always be held without exception.
IV. The freedom of all members to leave FAN at any time will be kept whole.
V. The freedom of all members to do as they please is intact unless specifically limited by law or detrimental to FAN as a whole.

Article 3. The Range Rules[]

I. ALWAYS keep a gun pointed in a safe direction. No FAN member shall attack a nation that is a member of an alliance that contains more than 15 members without prior government approval.
II. ALWAYS keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot. During time of alliance wide war all FAN members involved in the conflict are required to follow any rules of engagement set by FAN government.
III. ALWAYS keep the gun unloaded until ready to use. Whatever. Pack 'em hot folks.
IV. ALWAYS store guns so they are not accessible to unauthorized persons. FAN members are required to keep all sensitive information internal at all times.
