Government Description
Council of Seven There are seven council members that rule over Aeon. Each member is elected in by the people of Aeon and they each preside over there specific areas within the government.

If a counselor is not seen as doing the job correctly, the people of Aeon may motion for a Vote of No Confidence. Two or more Citizens need to motion for the VNC, and if a motion is sent forward, the entire nation votes. A 2/3rds vote is required to impeach a Counsilor

Non-Citizens cannot vote for Counselors, Run for a Counselor position, or motion for a vote of no confidence in a counselor.

Passing Laws Each council member has the right to enact any law, as long as that law only effects there section of the government. If a proposed law overlaps into another counselors jurisdiction the proposal is then presented as a bill, the council discusses it and votes on the bill. Any Law or Bill can be appealed if two or more citizens motion to appeal a law or bill. If it is a law that has been established by a single counsil member, the appeal goes to a council vote, and if it is appealed again it goes to a city vote. If a citizen is appealing a Bill, it automatically goes to the city to vote on.

Non-Citizens cannot vote for laws, appeal laws, or propose laws.

Courts Any Citizen of the Aeonion Empire recieves a fair trial and gets to choose weather they want to defend themselves, use the public defender, or hire an outside attorney. Citizens also have the right to appeal to get there trial pushed to the High Court, which includes all seven members of the council, and requires a majority vote to pass judgement.

If the accused is not a citizen they have no rights. They can only use the public defender, and cannot hire outside help, or defend themselves. They cannot appeal to go to the higher court, and they do not get any kind of rights to a fair punishment.

This is one of the largest differences between a Citizen and a Non-Citizen and the rights that the people of Aeon have.

Current Enacted Bills
Green Space Bill

We the council pass a law that allows areas of Aeon's Land Claim to be placed under protection as a national park.

The domestic counselor will be allowed to higher an appointed official to maintain and run the national parks of Aeon. This Ranger will be sure to clear any non natural buildings, that have not been approved, from the park area and to maintain the borders of each park. The Domestic counselor is welcome to perform these duties themselves, or if they choose they can hire the Ranger.

Any Citizen of Aeon can propose a new park location if there is another Citizen to second the motion. The entire council will then vote weather or not the proposed area will become a park. Once an area has been selected and approved by the council the area is protected from any building unless the Domestic councilor allows one of the following to be built; Camp Ground, Meadows, pathways, or ranger stations. Any other building will be prohibited.

Any citizen can appeal to have the status of a park location removed if they have another citizen to second the motion, in which case the entire city will vote to have the Park removed from protective status and allow construction. ( The whole city voting will prevent the council from knocking out parks in order to open up land, and will have a less bias vote from happening)

If their are any amendments to be made to this bill it will require a 5/7 vote from the council to add.

Derelict Plots Bill

Unclaimed plots are free but player must go through the city operations councilor in order to claim one.

No secondary plots until the first plot is built upon or changes ownership. Muilt-plot, which have to be adjacent to each other and acquired at the same time, are the exception.

Custom plots or homesteaded plots outside of the main city are allowed. Ex: Laudermilks House and stable, Raz Clan, IDC. From now on though they must be acquired through the operations councilor

No anonymous buyers, property transfer must be made public.

Empty Claimed Plots: A plot that sits empty for more than 60 days will be will be subject to a process of re-acquisition.

process for empty claimed plots: Owner gets two week notice on the subreddit as well as signs on the plot warning them of re-acquisition.

If they begin building on the plot, the repo process is halted.

If they do nothing or do not respond on the sub or to the sign then the plot becomes unclaimed and can be given away again by the operations councilor.

Unfinished builds: An partial build that sees no changes in more than 60 days will be will be subject to a process of re-acquisition. Any griefed and unpaired structure would fall into this category.

process for unfinished builds: Owner gets two week notice on the sub-reddit as well as signs on the plot warning them of re-acquisition.

If they begin building again, or make progress to their build, the repo process is halted.

If they dismantle the build and then do nothing then the 60 day timer starts over the the plot will be subject to the empty plot process.

If the owner does nothing or does not respond then the plot and everything on it becomes derelict and is owned by the city to be sold or given away.

Finished but abandoned structures: If the owner can be contacted and does not wish to sell or give the property to anyone then nothing can be done. It is theirs and the city can not trespass onto their plot. But, if there is not contact with the owner on the sub or in game for 4 months then then building goes through the processes as if it was an unfinished build.

Exemptions: If you are living in an unfinished build (have an active bed there) and are the owner of that plot and building then it will not be subject to unfinished build re-acquisition, if you are actively living there then you can take as long as you want to finish it. Just don't be surprised if people complain about the eyesore.

Busy with school, real life, or just simply taking a break for a few months? make it known and none of the re-acquisition processes will happen to you.

Dual Citizenship Bill

Any person who comes to Aeon to become a Citizen has the right to hold dual citizenship as long as they do not hold a formal or informal position in the other nation's government. If a current citizen obtains a government position in any other countries government they forfeit their Aeon Citizenship and must turn in there papers.

Courtesy Bill (Pending)

Each citizen and non citizen of Aeon is allowed to say, post, or protest in any way they like so far as it does not infringe on anybody else's right to feel safe and comfortable in Aeon. No matter if the act is performed on private or public land if it causes someone else to feel like they are being persecuted or upset their right to safety has been breached.

Offences that would lead to immediate Prosecution by the city itself without any motions to accuse would be; direct threats against the city of Aeon or a citizen or a group of citizens, Hate crimes that invoke fear or persecution, any form of griefing, and any form of speech that is racist or prejudice. In the case someone commits an infringement of safety, the Judicial Counselor will prosecute on behave of the People of Aeon when at least Two Citizens put forward a Motion against the accused.

If the accused is a citizen of Aeon they can, at any time, appeal to be moved to the higher court where the entire council will vote on the matter. If the accused is not a citizen of Aeon they will be deemed a flight risk and will be pearled on site and held until the trial, they will have no right to appeal for the higher court and will only be judged by the judicial counselor.

Plot Reformation Act

Plots given out by the city will always be free, you are given a plot one at a time. The first plot must be built on completely before you can obtain a second plot.

You may only Purchase one open plot at a time, meaning you can only have one open plot(contruction plot) at a time. If you are buying completed buildings than there is no limit on the amount of completed buildings you can buy.

There is no limit to the amount of land you can have but you can only aquire one open plot at a time wether that is through purchase or given from the city.
