Egalite Constitution:

In this small, but great nation of Egalite (The Land of Equality), we treat each other and the environment with utmost respect. This government is modeled after England, a constitutional monarchy, so even your great ruler, Queen Anna Elizabeth, has to follow the rules. A philosopher who would agree with this form of government is Baron months. The responsibilities of the government in our capital, Liberte (Freedom), are to protect your freedoms, provide for the common good, and protect the nation with the navy, army, and air force.


Parliament is divided into two houses, The House of Princesses and The House for the People. I select The House of Princesses and they will be able to serve for four years, and The House for the People will be selected by the people and they will serve for only two years. The ruler (me) has a lifetime rule and you do not have to be married to rule. The two houses accept proposals from the people or they propose a law themselves.
If the people propose a law, they must vote on it before it can be passed on to the House for the People. I have the final word on each and every law, and no means no! The judiciary system is consisting of a judge with a lifetime term and jurors switched out every three years. The police enforce the laws and the judge has the final decision on the sentence (hey, I'm not a law major!) The police are allowed to ticket, but they do not have the say on whether someone should go to jail.


Specific Laws:

1.Only women who are legal citizens are allowed in the House of Princesses.
2. ABSOLUTELY NO LITTERING!
3. Only one-fourth of the population can have a car, and they must be smartcars.
4. 100,000 Cleveland Cash in taxes must be payed every July.
5. Each and every citizen has a right to have freedom of speech, though freedom of the press is forbidden.
6.No one but the military and the police have any right to bear arms.
7. Always try to be kind.
8. Everyone in this land will be treated equally. No race or gender will be discriminated against.
9. The drinking age is 30.
1o. This is the Land of EQUALITY. If you show prejudice to ANYONE, you will be severely punished.
11. Citizenship policy: You must either be born here; or immigrate and live here for one year to be a fully qualified citizen.
12. Immigration policy: You must swear to obey the laws in this country, learn one of our two languages, and take a literacy test.
