Passasian Constitution
For the first time since the foundation of the Republic, Passas has adopted a new, official constitution. More government reform programs are set to get underway as the Free Society of Passas looks to the future.
The Constitution of the Free Society of Passas
The Free Society of Passas is a nation founded upon the principals of humanity, the right of all people to the pursuit of happiness, and works to establish a more perfect union.
The Passasian Creed
1.Only by treating others with respect, shall I myself be respected.
2.Before passing judgment, one must first seek knowledge.
3.The greatest rewards are those reaped through acts of selflessness and goodwill towards others.
4.No individual is greater than the next, and no individual may impede on another's pursuit of happiness.
Government
The government shall function as a Constitutional Monarchy, in which an elected Prime Minister shall serve as the supreme upholder of this Constitution for a term of 4 months, or until he is no longer able to perform the duties of office.
Amending the Constitution
Any amendment to the Constitution requires 75% backing in a vote from the House of Commons in a single vote.
Foreign Policy
The Free Society of Passas maintains the traditional Passasian stance of neutrality in all conflicts, until the best interests of the nation are infringed upon. The terms of Passasian alliance with other nations include the following:
* Mutual respect for each other's territorial integrity and sovereignty
* Mutual non-aggression
* Mutual non-interference in domestic affairs
* Equality and mutual benefit
* Peaceful co-existence
War
The Government may only declare war with the support of 75% of the House of Commons.
1. If Passasian territory is attacked, the Government may declare war with only 50% of backing.
2. If the nation is invaded then there is no backing required.
3. The Passasian government may send peacekeeping forces to areas with a majority vote in parliament.
