| [IC Bill] Colonial and Imperialistic Expansion | |
| By: Columbia Confederates Date: August 28, 2015, 8:54 am | |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| A bill to allow the establishment of colonies outside of the | |
| NCSA borders. | |
| Recognizing Each state's own sovereignty and right to own land | |
| inside the NCSA borders without contention. | |
| Realizing That colonial expansion is currently deemed illegal. | |
| Further Realizing That colonial expansion would allow some to | |
| gain an upper hand upon other states economically. | |
| Congress Hereby Mandates the following | |
| (1) The Expansion into territories, north and south, for | |
| economical and militaristic purposes. | |
| (2) The following regions will be allowed to be expanded into, | |
| by agreement with the Congress of the NCSA: | |
| (a) Cuba, West Indies, Bahamas | |
| (b) Philippine Islands | |
| (c) Australia | |
| (d) African Islands and Territories | |
| (e) Canadian Territories | |
| (f) Antarctica | |
| (g) Coastal South America and Mexico | |
| (3) A form must be filed by the state in Congress and approved | |
| in order to moderate colonial expansion, as to not inflict upon | |
| a state's rights and sovereignty, but as to avoid cruel | |
| domination over the lands, such forms shall follow as this. | |
| *We the people of ^enter state name here^, hereby decree the | |
| ownership of the ^Island or specific territory^ for ^economic, | |
| militaristic, multiple^ purposes. We shall comply to the laws of | |
| the state and comply to the colonial laws of the NCSA. We shall | |
| not wage war against fellow state's colonies, but rather work | |
| peacefully together in a league of friendship.* | |
| (4) All Expansions shall be within a 40,000 sq mile limit given | |
| how much land a state currently owns within the NCSA borders. | |
| (a) If a state owns less than the 64,040 sq mile limit | |
| within the border, they may have more than a 40,000 limit in | |
| order to make up for land due to land lock. | |
| (b) That all state's may only have a total land | |
| occupation limit of 104,040 sq miles. | |
| ((OOC: Now, just read through it, and actually take a second to | |
| think about it. I know there are lots of state's who are | |
| landlocked that can't expand any further that deserve another | |
| expansion to meet maximum capabilities. It would also be | |
| different for the RP, instead of constant war RPs we can have | |
| colonial RPs)) | |

| OOC: Louis isn't actually a member of congress, sooo.... | |
| IC: "This bill is a selfish bill. We all know why Columbia | |
| wanted to put it here! Why wouldn't they, after their own | |
| request was shot down? All these bills that they have been | |
| proposing are first for them, with the people as an | |
| afterthought. I will not support this bill. We do not need | |
| empires." | |

| OOC: And he is too, he registered. | |
| "I am not deliberately unopposed to expansion, we should limit | |
| colonial holdings, but we should try to welcome other Nations | |
| into our Confederacy." | |

| OOC: Thanks for the clarification about my membership status, | |
| Caos. Apologies about the email. Thought I PM'd you. Won't | |
| happen again. | |
| "We cannot judge a nation's actions before they happen. To do | |
| so would be immoral, and in the case of some other nations, | |
| incredibly hypocritical." | |

| "Could we start off a little close to home say Canada and | |
| Mexico? Expanding globally seems to be a cheap ploy for Sparta | |
| to obtain slaves and traffick them across Columbia Confederate | |
| state lines!" | |

| "I don't understand why the Rep from DEN is at the neck of | |
| Columbia, always. This bill is beneficial to all, even your | |
| over-zealous military shenanigans. This is for nations that need | |
| better opportunity to boost economics or expand because of land | |
| lock! I want one good reason to oppose this bill besides that it | |
| will benefit Columbia! All bills are meant to benefit states, | |
| sir. Now give us one good reason not to support this. I hope you | |
| understand that this would benefit you and every state in this | |
| nation! It's clear that these people want an expansion but as | |
| long as Columbia could benefit, you want it shot down. You have | |
| attacked our sovereignty by waging a 'moral' war against slavery | |
| and you refuse to support any law or man from Columbia!" | |

| "While Frijstaat does not object to colonial expansion per se; | |
| we hope that nations will treat any indigenous populations | |
| fairly and equally and that this proposal not be a smoke screen | |
| for the exportation of tyranny and misery for economic gain." | |
