Formal Demilitarisation Amendment
Title 4 of the Constitution of Sophia currently reads as follows:This Constitution shall be enacted immediately upon its promulgation by the Philosopher-Queen. No law or treaty may contradict it.
This Constitution shall not be substantially amended except with the consent of two-thirds of voting citizens; once discussion on any Constitutional amendment concludes, it must be brought to a four-day poll in the region of Sophia. Amendments that are minor or stylistic may be made at the President's pleasure.
This Constitution shall not be repealed without a replacement document; any such replacement must pass with the consent of three-quarters of voting citizens in a similar fashion.
No person may eject a substantial portion or all of Sophia's inhabitants without giving one week's notice and a good reason for doing so to all inhabitants and prospective new arrivals.
Sophia shall be a Frontier region at all times. No President may retract Sophia's Frontier status for any reason whatsoever.
Whenever the President is active and willing to continue in office, any attempt to seize the position of WA Delegate from them shall be considered a major threat to regional security.
.
In order to confirm that Sophia shall never organise a military of whatever description, it is proposed that Title 4 be amended to read as follows instead:
This Constitution shall be enacted immediately upon its promulgation by the Philosopher-Queen. No law or treaty may contradict it.
This Constitution shall not be substantially amended except with the consent of two-thirds of voting citizens; once discussion on any Constitutional amendment concludes, it must be brought to a four-day poll in the region of Sophia. Amendments that are minor or stylistic may be made at the President's pleasure.
This Constitution shall not be repealed without a replacement document; any such replacement must pass with the consent of three-quarters of voting citizens in a similar fashion.
Sophia shall not organise a military force nor lend its official support to such a force, whether the alignment of that force be Raider, Defender, Independent, or something else entirely. Notwithstanding Article 2 of this Title, this Article shall not be amended or repealed except with the consent of three-quarters of voting citizens in the ordinary fashion.
No person may eject a substantial portion or all of Sophia's inhabitants without giving one week's notice and a good reason for doing so to all inhabitants and prospective new arrivals.
Sophia shall be a Frontier region at all times. No President may retract Sophia's Frontier status for any reason whatsoever.
Whenever the President is active and willing to continue in office, any attempt to seize the position of WA Delegate from them shall be considered a major threat to regional security.
