Decree XX Adam I
Office of the Emperor
Decree XX
International TreatiesThis Imperial Decree hereby reforms the Empire's method of dealing with international treaties in the interests of formalising the state's ratification of the Charter of the Grand Unified Micronational and any such future treaties.
It is henceforth declared that only the Monarch may sign an international treaty in their capacity as Head of State. In order for the state to provide official ratification, a motion must be presented to the Ruling Council. If this motion gains a majority vote in the Council, the Monarch must re-affirm the ratification by providing Imperial Consent. Neither stages of the ratification process necessitate an Act of Council or an Imperial Decree. However, an instrument of ratification may be presented if necessary, bearing the votes of the Ruling Council and the signature of the Monarch granting Imperial Consent.
It is henceforth declared that, if the Empire recieves notice that a state it has recognised has dissolved by the legitimate government of that state, the Empire's recognition of that state is then completely withdrawn. To this end, the Empire no longer recognises the Union of Libereco, the Federal Republic of Rukora, and the Empire of New Europe. The Empire also withdraws its recognition of the Commonwealth of Hobartstown and Victoria, the Principality of Monovia, and the Liberoli Republic on the grounds of inactivity. However, the state also recognises the sovereignty of the Democratic Environmental Society of Senya; the Delsh-Westlandian Federal Republic; the Democratic Republic of Leylandiistan; the Principality of Sabovia; and the Democratic People's Republic of Yurtyzstan.
It is hereby declared illegal to play the electronic game known as Flappy Bird in the Empire of Adammia.
This, the Twentieth Imperial Decree of Our Imperial Majesty Emperor Adam I, is signed into immediate effect on today the third day of February, two-thousand and fourteenth year of the Common Era, year I of Our reign.
Imperator Adammiae I
