Azehtyl SAR Treaty
The following is the full text of the treaty that established the City State of Azehtyl as a SAR (Special Autonomous Region) of the Free State of Renasia.
Introduction:
This treaty, signed by the Heads of the States of both Azehtyl and of Renasia, establishes Azehtyl as a Special Autonomous Region, which shall be defined for the purposes of this treaty as an area having its own devolved legislo-executive body and system, whilst still being under the sovereignty of the Renasian Constitution and Government.
Article I:
The autonomy of Azehtyl shall be restricted by all federal laws of Renasia. Azehtyl will have its own government and be able to pass legislation within itself, but must abide by all laws passed by the Renasian government, including its constitution.
Article 2:
Renasia shall provide the People and State of Azehtyl with the following services as a Special Autonomous Region:
1. All Azehtyl’n citizens that agree to join Renasia will be granted Renasian citizenship, with all it entails. They may stand for offices, vote electorally and legislatively, apply for grants, have access to documents and may represent Renasia at international events should they so please.
2. Azehtyl itself will, from April 2013, be entitled to submit budget proposals to be considered and approved by the Treasury. The upper limit for the first year's budget is to be ₤115. This may then be revised each year as necessary.
- (a) To make sure budgets are properly spent, quarterly reports on spending, with relevant proof (receipts, photos of acquired objects, demonstrations) provided, must be submitted to the Treasury for monitoring. Should misappropriation of funds be discovered, funds to the equivalent value will be removed from next quarter's payment.
- (b) Budget money shall be assigned in quarterly amounts, as outlined by budget submissions.
3. Azehtyl shall be allowed a devolved political system of any Constitutional set up it wishes to legislate within its boundary, with the Guide being its leader.
Article 3:
Azehtyl shall be a Renasian SAR for a minimum duration of 12 months. At this point, they will have the option of leaving, or signing and dating this treaty again to sign for another 12 months, and so on ad infinitum. Leaving during one of these agreements without official agreement is a violation.
Article 4:
If Azehtyl violates this treaty before April 2013, Renasia shall be within their rights to halve the Azehtyli budget, or terminate the treaty.
If Renasia infringes the treaty before April 2013, Azehtyl shall be within their rights to demand half their initial budget be added again for the coming year, and may choose the cut the treaty without surrendering the 2013 budget.
If Azehtyl violates the treaty after April 2013, Renasia will be allowed to reclaim funds proportional to the time remaining for the 2013 year and terminate the treaty.
If Renasia violates the treaty after April 2013, Azehtyl may terminate this treaty and retain all funding provided to the Azehtyl State for that fiscal year.
Article 5:
By signing below, Azehtyl agrees to abide by the terms of this treaty understanding it shall place them under Renasian sovereignty, and Renasia agrees to abide by their responsibilities under this treaty.
Signed:
- Sām Krimmer, Guide of the City-State of Azehtyl and its People
