Establishment
§1. Reflecting the dreams and wills of the Hurmu karjak-ka to create a common destiny based on the ancient Hanwen u-Brida, the Senators of Hurmu, in the Arion Elenaran assembled, hereby establish this Law of Laws of Hurmu, the Fundamental Law of the land.
§2. The Fundamental Law is the supreme law of Hurmu, forming the constitution of therepublik and is above all other laws.
§3. [repealed]
§4. Hurmu has an inalienable right to determine its relations with other states and communities in its political, cultural and economic life.
Foundation
§5. Hurmu is founded on the beliefs that all karjak-ka are equal to each other, each one being of immeasurable value, irrespective of their states, endowed with indisputable freedoms and rights, but also duties, in according with the ways of living of our people.
§6. Hurmu shall remain open to all those karjak-ka wishing to dwell here and respecting the common values of those who call Hurmu their home. Holding that Hurmu is an open society, forming both a community of free people and a sovereign state within the community of nations, we assert the right of every peaceful Brida-respecting karjak-ka to wander among the lush landscapes of Hurmu, and to settle, within the constraints of law, among these lands.
§7. The Republik of Hurmu exists to promote peace, Bridaism, and the well-being of the people under its wings. It shall be a safe harbour for all those who flee evil and shall offer
its inhabitants freedom, justice and security. No internal frontiers shall exist in Hurmu’s lands.
§§8-22 [repealed]
The Rights of the Individual
§23. All persons are born equally free and independent, and have unalienable dignity as well as rights, among which are the enjoyment and defence of life and liberty and pursuing and obtaining happiness and safety.
§24. Therefore no person in Hurmu, whether born in the country or brought over from across seas or borders, or any person in Hurmu's protection, may be held, either by law, tradition or other force, to serve any person or entity whatsoever as a slave or labourer, unless bound by the affected person's own clear, objective and continuous consent or by a conviction from an impartial court of law for an act that explicitly is an offence by law, and for which there is a determined period of time for such forced labour or servitude. Likewise, no person may, under the same provisions, have his or her freedom, independence or liberty suspended or terminated. Trafficking of karjak-ka is prohibited.
§25. No person may be condemned to death. The right to life of a person is inviolable. Therefore no person may be subjected to any torture, whether it be corporal or psychological, or to any degrading treatment under any circumstances, for all persons own the right to security of person.
§26. Having throughout history longed to know the unknown, all individuals enjoy the freedom and right to engage in scientific research, educational activities, the arts, all according to law and constitution, and the peaceful practice of religion. The practice of eugenics is forbidden.
§27. No entity of the State, the media, nor any individual, nor any group of people or entity may compel a person to adhere to any religion, nor to any religious or irreligious beliefs and practices.
§28. All persons, being equal to one and another, have the freedom of conscience. They may believe what they will and express such views in a peaceful and considerate manner, or not to express them at all. Therefore no entity of the State, nor any other entity, individual or power, may compel a person to reveal his or her feelings on a matter, whether it be politics, religion or personal. Courts of law may, however, compel persons to reveal facts that are relevant to a case in question.
§29. Everyone within the country has right to, without having to purchase it, recourse to the laws for all injuries and wrongs that he or she may have received in person, property or character. The individual enjoys freedom to obtain right and justice freely in conformity with law.
§30. Whenever a person is accused or charged in accordance with law with an offence, the person has the right to be presumed innocent until he or she is proved guilty according to law in a trial that is public and impartial.
§31. All persons who by free will reside in Hurmu have the freedom of movement in Hurmu, to choose their own place of residence within Hurmu, subject to the respect of law, or to emigrate to a State that will receive them.
§32. Whenever any form of government instituted among the People of Hurmu becomes so destructive that it refuses to, or is unable to, respect the rights and freedoms afforded the People whom it serves, it is not only the right of the same People, but duty, to alter or abolish the government and to institute a new institutions and systems of rule, respecting the rights and freedoms as through this Fundamental Law dictated.
§33. For it is so that the government of Hurmu is instituted for the advancement, protection and security of the people, nation and community of Hurmu, and not, under any circumstances, the particular advantage of any single individual, set of persons, family, or entity, whether within or without the country.
§34. Therefore may no entity of the State favour or disfavour any individual, set of persons, family, entity or group of entities, because of their views, whether political, irreligious or religious, because of their sex, nationality, colour, creed, ethnicity, cultural or social heritage or status, economical status, partner or partners in love, whether the love between hearts or the love between bodies, or because of any other reason that may be related to that which is listed here, for all, without exceptions, are equal before the law, are afforded the equal protection of the law, and enjoy the same obligations under the law.
§35. Everyone, regardless of his nationality or citizenship, is free to call him- or herself a member of the Hurmu community, a Hurmudan and an heir to the lakes.
§36. Titles of nobility or royalty are neither conferred on persons, nor recognized among the residents and senators of Hurmu.
§37. Everyone has a right of petition.
