Region: Northern Utopia

OOC: I’m standing in the presidential election.

If elected, I will work with members of the government and volunteers to create a document containing a relatively brief description for each nation. Each description shall be simple enough for new members to understand but detailed enough to satisfy older members; the hope is that new roleplayers will be able to interact with older and more established members easily. Not every nation will be included in the first volume, but a fair process will be used to decide which nations are and which are not.

Key facts will be listed, including international allegiance (for example, to an organisation such as the World Union). A description consisting of a paragraph or two will be included also. Because this project could take a fair amount of time to complete, my government will aim to complete the first version at the end of the term (in around two months). The idea is that future governments may update it, creating new volumes.

The descriptions will be short and will not encompass every detail of the law, but will cover the basics so that members can have a secure understanding of the rules. Here is an example.

The Judicial Affairs Act

- The Attorney General decides which cases go forward to the High Court and must tell the person who requested the case whether their case will go forward or not.
- The Attorney General also represents the government if the government is involved in the case.
- The High Court makes a decision on a case in the courtroom in two days (Justices vote at the end).
- Punishments are decided by the High Justice and executed by the Attorney General.
- Possible punishments are as follows: formal warning, temporary RMB ban, ejection or a permanent ban.
- If a member has joined the region in the last 14 days and commits a minor roleplay offence, the maxmimum punishment is a temporary RMB ban.
- Unintentional government misconduct can only be punished by an official warning, although the President can still fire the official involved.

If you agree with the policies I've detailed over the last few days, I would very much appreciate a vote for myself as president and Nordic democratic republic as VP tomorrow. Thanks.
