Shireroth

Vasroixie, your recent acts of condemnation and performing foreign relations as a county are to cease immediately. In addition, you are to apologize formally to the nations in question.Further foreign relations taken by ANY subdivision shall be met with a suitable punishment.

The laws still allow for insignificant foreign affairs, and I believe the Byzantian resolution was insignificant. Richard LyonYansha Elaer Kyon gef ShanPernem kahn gef kuymal per varga stiPernem kahn gef varga per kuymal sti

Condemnation is not insignificant in any form.

I had no idea that baronies could not issue their own diplomatic policy. It won't happen again. I promise.I will make an apology, to the nations involved, for the illegality of my diplomatic resolutions, but my personal opinion about the nations involved still stands.Apologetically,Co-Baron Matthew Basil, Port Illumination Byzantia Shirerothian PatriotPrince of Byzantia"I've got an idea.Let's get a gigantic prism...and send it into space. Then we can solve world hunger WITH SKITTLES!" -- anonymous

You could also apologize to me for running around acting like you own the place.If I do recall, there is no ONE Baron at the moment, we are both ruling, which means you are NOT Baron. Also, if I recall, Illumination was defacto in Elwynn before Automatica, so do try not to pull some seniority crap on me. And in fact, we don't even operate as a Barony yet.

The law accually provides for NO foreign affairs, no matter HOW insignificant... You could condemn personally... as long as it is not a hostile action. but not at all officially. E. Metzler (UEC)Count of Monty CriscoFounder of the MCS"Never use a BOO/\/\ist as a diplomat" -- GSJoin Shireroth

Count Vasroixie, you are allowed your opinion; that I cannot take away. But please, take your opinions to me or to the Minister of the Exterior. That is, after all, our jobs.Your apology is duly noted and accepted. Just don't let it happen again.

Ozarka, please don't criticize your fellow Baron in such a public way. If you want to be notified of my decisions as Co-Baron or join me in meetings about both our potential decisions, we can do so by e-mail.

You'll be a barony as soon as you have:- given me or the Steward a proposal for what powers your barony may have- the Steward or me have accepted the proposalAnd in regards to make each other co-barons...Don't kill me, but you should marry. That way you get - through Shireroth - a legal right to be both represented in the Landsraad in the same time (should I give you the right to be in the Landsraad).A political marriage to say the least.

More importantly, you'll get a Barony when you make a danged contract.

I think there should be a marriage.

How adorable. *gags* *throws grenade for the hell of it*BO0O0O0O0/\/\!!!!!!

Please please - not a marriage. A civil partnership would sound much more non committal.

They can call it whatever they want, but it's a good and legal powersharing thing.

Co-Baron sounds corny, I know. But actually Andorra has Co-Princes. One is the Bishop of some place and the other is the President of France. Okay, still corny.Even if I were not heterosexual, I wouldn't take part in a loveless marriage simply for power.Can't the laws just be changed...to allow for two Barons who aren't married or in some sort of civil union to hold joint rule...like the Antican dinarchs? There, an example that's not corny. Shirerothian PatriotPrince of Byzantia"I've got an idea.Let's get a gigantic prism...and send it into space.

Marriage in Shireroth has never been for love. All that it ever has been is a political arrangement.In marrying you share each other's powers and titles. What difference would it make if it were called a "civil union"?It was just an idea If not you will have to stick to the one-month arrangement thing, but by marrying you will actually be able to both have a say in the Landsraad.

Quote:Marriage in Shireroth has never been for love. All that it ever has been is a political arrangement.That's actually not true. Just look at the couples who were real life boyfriend/girlfriend. Erik and Alex, Jadie and Zary, and Joe and myself, were all in relationships when we were married in Shireroth, to the best of my knowledge. *throws grenade for the hell of it*BO0O0O0O0/\/\!!!!!!

*takes it back*Sorry, Hypatia

Of course, out of those three you named, only one couple is still going, and they dont post here anymore. There are no flowers, no not this time. There will be no angels gracing the lines, just these stark words I find.

= love is bad for Shireroth

My apologies, but I am under the impression that Vazroixe is a male. If I am wrong, again, my apologies.Perhaps... I know it has not been done before, but, in the events of a King (or in this case Baron) has not it always fallen to their most capable living relative?Perhaps, if we were to join as siblings... then we might still maintain our dignity while also ensuring that only one of the bloodline secede one another. This always makes a nice story for a bloodline to traditionally rule the throne.And, Vaz, I have semester tests and aforementioned tests to study, if you would like to draw up a draft of the contract, that'd be great. If not, I can work on one with you via aim (CJHHootOwl91 is my AIM at the moment for all purposes) during Christmas Break.

Quote: I wouldn't take part in a loveless marriage simply for power.Poor naive fools...

There is another option, I guess.Ozarka could become the sole Baron. Shirerothian PatriotPrince of Byzantia"I've got an idea.Let's get a gigantic prism...and send it into space. Then we can solve world hunger WITH SKITTLES!" -- anonymous
