PostPosted: Tue Mar 22, 2011 6:35 pm    Post subject: Decree to Declare War on Lenendstress Reply with quote

Seeing the horrible actions taken against Freedomia by Lenendstress and noting that all possible diplomatic avenues have been exhausted, it has become necessary that Kirkland declare war on Lenendstress. Henceforth, an embargo shall be in effect against Lenendstress. Furthermore, a state of war shall exist between Kirkland and Lenendstress. Authorisation for this conflict shall exist under the authority of this decree until a declaration of war is made by the Parliament. Upon the passage of Parliament's declaration of war this decree shall be nullified. However, let it be noted that if Parliament refuses to declare war then, as King, I will exercise my right to maintain hostilities until this conflict in resolved in favor of Kirkland and her ally Freedomia.

PostPosted: Thu Mar 31, 2011 11:45 pm    Post subject: Decree to Give Kirkland a More Glorious Name Reply with quote

Henceforth, the Kingdom of Kirkland shall officially be called the "Grand Kingdom of Kirkland". The reason for this is to give our nation a more glorious name. The "Kingdom of Kirkland" is rather bland and I think that Kirkland deserves a more grandiose title to represent it grand ambitions.

PostPosted: Thu Jun 09, 2011 4:49 pm    Post subject: Decree Concerning Parliamentary Resolutions and Dissolution Reply with quote

Henceforth the power of Parliament to enact unilateral resolutions and the power of Parliament to dissolve itself shall be restricted. All internal appointments made by Parliament (ie the Speaker) must be approved by the Sovereign. Parliament shall also no longer be permitted to enact unilateral resolutions (a resolution being a statement made by the Parliament that is not legally binding). The business of Parliament shall be only to draft bills of a legal nature.

Also, Parliament shall not be allowed the power to dissolve itself without Royal approval. The Constitution states that Parliament exists upon the pleasure of the Sovereign, not at the pleasure of the Members of Parliament or the Nobility.

This decree shall take effect immediately. However, the recent actions of Parliament dissolving itself will be permitted to take their course. Elections will still be held next week and those elected will be allowed to be seated, just know that such actions will no longer be tolerated.

Henceforth, the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Environment & Tourism, the Ministry of Transportation, and the Ministry of Education are abolished. The Under-Secretaries and administrative divisions of the Ministry of Commerce will be placed under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry & Trade. These offices have proven to be ineffectual and create unnecessary bureaucracy.

PostPosted: Thu Jul 07, 2011 6:01 am    Post subject: Decree to Change Office Things Reply with quote

Having noted the change to an Empire some changes will be made to the national motto and anthem. Henceforth, the national motto shall be "Deus Vult" which is Latin for "God wills it". This motto will better represent the Most Glorious & Holy Empire of Kirkland. Also, the anthem of the Empire shall be changed to "Hail to Thee in Victor's Crown" (in German, "Heil dir im Siegerkranz") which is to be sung in English only and will have the name "Wilhelm" in the 6th stanza replaced with the name "Brayden". It is my opinion that the previous anthem was too mellow in its language and does not fit the ideal of an Imperial theme. It is my hope that the new anthem will be better suited to representing an Empire
