Reason for joining the MTO: Tellia's geographical position being spread around numerous city enclaves makes it somewhat weak politically. We feel that membership in the MTO would give us a more powerful voice in Benacia and allow us greater support in dialogue to better the state of Micras.

With 12 members of the General Assembly, approval of at least 7 members of the General Assembly shall be sufficient to decide the question in favor.From the Treaty of General Membership:
3. Membership in the MTO is open to all other Micran states which accept the obligations contained in the present Treaty and, in the judgment of the Organization, are able and willing to carry out these obligations. Nations wishing to join the organization must be approved by the General Assembly with at least a 1/3rd plurality. If rejected, a nation may reapply in 3 months.
- 3a. Members may be expelled from the organization for extraordinary reasons by the General Assembly with a 3/4th (75.0%) majority.
3b. Members that have been removed from the map of Micras, as maintained by the Micronational Cartographic Society, shall be removed from the organization by the Secretary-General.
3c. Members that have lost their sovereignty or independence through a merger or absorption into another nation shall also be removed from the organization by the Secretary-General.
3d. Any nation or subnational autonomous entity may apply for observer status, provided that it is officially consented by the national entity it belongs to through their proper constitutional means, to the Secretary-General, who will put the application before the General Assembly, needing a simple majority vote to pass. Observer status grants a seat and voice in the General Assembly but no vote.
