Treaty for the Supremacy of Humanity on Micras

[preamble]

1. Signatories shall undertake to ensure the primacy of humanity as the determining qualification in their domestic laws for citizenship and the exercise of rights associated with the electoral franchise and representative government.
2. Signatories pledge to exclude any non-human sentient being from the public spaces of their countries except and unless the aforementioned has a guarantor who is a human citizen of the signatory country.
a. Travel between a signatory nation and any other nation by a non-human sentient subject of that signatory nation shall be prohibited unless authorised by the non-human sentient's guarantor.
3. Definition: A non-human sentient is defined as being a biological entity that has developed a comparable level of intelligence and self-awareness to that of a human on Micras. Includes non-humans native to Micras and includes aliens of extra-terrestrial origin.
a. Artificial intelligences, defined as mechanical or computer systems capable of performing tasks normally requiring human intelligence, shall remain classed as property to be regulated by domestic intellectual property, research and patent laws.
4. Signatories shall undertake to subject non-human sentients to a rules-based system of law with the requirement that this system of law shall differ from the law governing human citizens and residents, shall not afford non-human sentients greater dignities and protections than afforded to humans, and shall be determined and administered solely by human authorities.
5. Signatories undertake to prevent and suppress all forms of self-government by non-human sentients within their respective jurisdictions.
6. Signatories shall eradicate all prohibited non-human sentient life within their respective jurisdictions.
7. Prohibited forms of non-human sentient life shall include any which fall into the following categories:
a. Insectoid;
b. Psionic (capable of telekinetic or telepathic actions);
c. Revenant (the re-animated form of a deceased entity, whether it be human or a non-human sentient being);
d. Hateful or Harmful to Humanity (including creatures that generate wholly natural and instinctive feelings of abhorrence or which prey on humans for sustenance, e.g. vampires).
8. Signatories shall enact laws to prevent hybridisation between human and non-human sentient beings, including prohibitions on research into the same.
9. Signatories shall undertake every practicable effort to ensure the termination of illegal hybrids, where they have been discovered to have occurred, before they come to term.
10. Where it has been impossible to prevent the birth of a hybrid it shall, upon its discovery, be treated as a non-human sentient unless it belongs to a prohibited category where in which case it shall be terminated.
11. Signatories shall undertake to ensure that domestic employment laws will guarantee that no human citizen shall be disadvantaged or denied work by the employment of a non-human sentient.
12. Disagreements shall be settled by bilateral negotiations, failing that then the Common Court of the MTO.
13. A signatory of this treaty may inform the Secretary-General of the MTO if another signatory is not fulfilling the terms by presenting their evidence in an open letter to the Secretary-General of the MTO. At that point the other signatories will decide among themselves how to the signatory in question shall be returned to compliance.
14. This treaty shall come into force when three (3) nations have signed and ratified. Can be amended by a majority of signatories. A signatory can withdraw one (1) Norton year after public notification to the Secretary-General of the MTO.

The rights of Humanity are perforce limited to those who share in the common condition of belonging to the Human species and thus having a share and vested interest in the preservation of the Human Supremacy over the Planet of Micras. This arises from the natural bonds of kinship and shared heredity which plainly do not exist with those alien species encountered on the margins of our societies, that have somehow been permitted to infiltrate this planet and who threaten the spread of blight and contagion through the introduction of thoroughly alien forms of biota into our precarious and precious ecosystem.

To presume the equality of the alien with the human is to seek to undermine and delegitimise the rightly guided and eternal reign of Humanity over this planet and all other worlds as may fall under the eventual dominion of our species.

[...] those who propose the toleration of hostile and or competitor species for no reason other than as an ill thought out analogy for the thorny issue of race relations that bedevil some contemporary human societies. We are one species and the differences between us can be resolved by humble submission to the hierarchies of obedience necessary for our civilisation to function, and to work together towards the noble goal of an ever-victorious and ever-expanding Human Supremacy, not only on this planet but across the widest reaches of the cosmos.

Amongst the many distressing attributes of the Safir is their reputed telepathy. In any human community where as safir creature is present the privacy of any and all human citizen with regards to the sanctity of their own private thoughts is immediately and unavoidably compromised. No safir statement of good will can be accepted as no means of satisfactory verification exists. What advantages do these creatures accrue through the manipulation of mind and matter? How else could they have once attained the Kaisership in Shireroth, a human empire of some antiquity? Anathema upon all those who would see this planet reduced to little more than a minor outpost of an alien extraterrestrial empire.

Drak-Modan:

The governments of Elwynn and Zeed are entitled to their opinions and may define humanity as they see fit. Several scientists in our universities have concluded that non-Draconians (straight humans, as you may know them) are genetically and biologically distinct from those who freely identify as Draconians. Non-Draconians are biological entities that have evolved on Micras, although they clearly display inferior and problematic behaviors that make them incompatible with society.

The government of Drak-Modan is especially interested in clause 8, as it will permit us to begin a program of sterilization of non-Draconians to further reduce their numbers, enforce abortions on non-Draconian couples that reproduce without permits, or destroy the products of such perverted couplings.
