[[File:Emperor Portrait.png|thumb|212x212px|Official portrait of Supreme Emperor Bitgold.]]
The United States is an Imperial Constitutional Democratic Republic led by Supreme Emperor Bitgold the First. The nation goes by two names, both the United States and the United States Empire. The capital city of the nation is [[Aurora:Atlanta|Atlanta]] which had a peak population count of 323 residents on the 5th September 2023. The United States was once the largest nation in Aurora with over 450 citizens, surpassing Indochina on the 9th September 2023. The capital city was the largest town in Aurora for over 10 weeks. The official United States discord is: https://discord.gg/JxZuGRrePT . The United States Empire is a member of the North American Union Meganation since 5th January 2024.

[[File:Atlanta Town Spawn 2024.png|left|thumb|700x700px|Capital City of the United States Empire, Atlanta after 10th December 2023.]]

== Constitution of the United States (Empire) ==
This constitution, written by Bitgold, is for the in-game nation “United_States” whose official name is the “The United States Empire”, which may also be officially abbreviated to the “United States” or “US”. The Constitution must be followed by all citizens of the United States, including all members of Government. All towns in the United States must follow the Constitution.

The constitution was last amended on the 1st September 2023 with a 13-0 vote in favour in the Senate. The amendment amended Article IV of the Constitution, and it removed the codification of Presidential elections in favour of a more flexible imperial appointment process.

=== ARTICLE I - The Senate ===

# All legislative powers shall be vested in the Senate with the President having the power to veto all and any legislation passed by the Senate.
# The Senate shall be made up of all Mayors of all towns in the United States.
# Senators have the power to propose and vote on decisions/laws affecting the United States in the form of bills.
# Every town in the United States has 1 seat, and thus 1 vote, in the Senate by default - filled by their Mayor. However, towns gain a second seat once they reach 25 residents. This continues, adding a seat for every 25 residents. For example, a town with 75 residents would have the default Mayor seat, and then an additional 3 seats.
## A Mayor can choose to fill his additional seat/s with another/other resident/s from his town. This is the preferred option.
## Alternatively, a Mayor can choose to leave his additional seat/s vacant, and simply cast his additional votes himself. This is the default option.
# For a bill to pass, it must receive a majority (50%+1) vote of approval in the Senate. Once passed the bill will be sent to the President for ratification. If a bill receives less than a majority, or it receives a tie, then it fails.
## Bills that have failed cannot be copy, pasted and then proposed again in the Senate until 30 days have passed from the time they failed. They may, however, be proposed again if they have been rewritten and undergone change/s.
## Bills that have been vetoed can be proposed again immediately through the process of a veto override. This requires a three quarters (¾) majority vote of approval in the Senate. If it fails then Part 5 (a) Article I of this Constitution applies.
# Upon receiving the President’s ratification, a bill becomes struck into law and shall be known as an act.
# It is the role of the President and his Executive to introduce all acts that have been ratified.
# The President may dissolve the Senate during a national emergency. A national emergency may only be called by the Senate with a two-thirds (⅔) majority.
# The Supreme Emperor and/or President may pass acts by Decree when the number of town Mayors is below 5.
# The Constitution may be amended with a two-thirds (⅔) majority vote in the Senate. Approval from the President is not required for Constitutional amendments.
# In the event there is evidence of the President breaking the law, the Senate may hold a vote to impeach him. If the vote reaches a three-quarters (¾) majority in favour of impeachment, the President shall be removed (see Article IV for the procedure that will ensue following Presidential impeachment).

=== ARTICLE II - The House of Representatives ===

# The House of Representatives shall be an advisory chamber to the Senate. This means Representatives may propose bills and if they receive a majority vote of approval in the House of Representatives, the bill then goes to the Senate for a final vote. If a majority of the Senate vote in approval, then the bill goes to the President to receive ratification.
# All Representatives and Deputy Representatives are members of the House of Representatives. They are appointed by the Supreme Emperor in accordance to their loyalty and service to the United States.
# A Representative and Deputy Representative may have their title removed by the Supreme Emperor if they have broken the law, or if a majority vote in the Senate instructs a removal. Representatives may vote on, and propose, laws, Deputy Representatives may only vote on laws and not propose any.

=== ARTICLE III - The Supreme Emperor and the President ===

# The Supreme Emperor shall hold the in-game rank of Nation Leader of the United State at all times.
# The Supreme Emperor shall be regarded as the head of state, and the President the head of government.
# The Supreme Emperor may assume the position of President during times when both the offices of President and Vice President are vacant.
# The Supreme Emperor may override vetoes and ratifications made by the President on bills passed by the Senate.
# The first Supreme Emperor of the United States shall be Supreme Emperor Bitgold the First, also known as Bitgold , who may pass on his imperial title whenever he wishes and to whomever he wishes, so long as they are in the House of Bitgold Imperial Family.
## Members of the House of Bitgold are chosen unilaterally by Supreme Emperor Bitgold I, and once in the House of Bitgold, you may never leave it unless you wish to leave, or with a unanimous vote in the Senate approving of the removal, making you almost permanently in line for the throne.
# The Supreme Emperor and President are responsible for holding votes in the Senate and House of Representatives. If a Senator or Representative wishes to put a bill up for vote, they must send the bill to the Supreme Emperor and/or President who must then place the bill up for vote. The Supreme Emperor and President are not allowed to refuse to put a bill up for vote.

=== ARTICLE IV - Presidential Appointment ===

# The Supreme Emperor shall decide who to make President and Vice President, or whether he should assume the position of President himself.
# It is up to the Supreme Emperor whether he would like to seek assistance with this decision, whether that be by public vote, a Senate vote, both, or nothing at all.

# In the event the President resigns, becomes inactive for a period of 14 days without notification to the Senate, or is impeached, the Vice President is to assume his position as President.
# If there is evidence of the Supreme Emperor, President or any member of the Executive breaking the Constitution, the Senate may hold a vote on whether or not the official in question has breached the Constitution.
## If the vote receives a unanimous vote of approval, they are to be removed from their position and permanently banned from standing for President, Vice President and entering the Executive.
## If the vote is on the Supreme Emperor and unanimously passes, then the House of Representatives is to hold a vote along with a vote in the Executive where the President, Vice President and all their department leaders are to vote as well. If the House of Representatives and Executive also vote unanimously in favour of removal, the Supreme Emperor is to resign as Nation Leader and hand their position to the next in line to the throne.
## Officials who have been removed for breaching the Constitution are not allowed to be appointed, or elected, back into the Executive unless the Senate votes unanimously in favour of allowing them.
# Treason shall be defined as plotting or attempting to unconstitutionally seize power in any way that belongs to the Supreme Emperor, President and the Executive of the United States.
## Committing Treason shall be the highest crime a citizen can commit. Anyone found to have committed treason are to be permanently banned from holding a seat in the Senate, House of Representatives, becoming the Emperor, President, Vice President or any position in the Executive. This can only be reversed by a unanimous vote of approval in the Senate, House of Representatives and Executive.

=== ARTICLE VI - The Judiciary ===

# The Supreme Emperor is the supreme judicial authority in the United States who acts as the sole judge in court. As the supreme judicial authority, the Supreme Emperor decides whether a citizen has or has not broken the law. The Supreme Emperor must use evidence to make his decision.
# The Supreme Emperor must act impartially in all court cases. Failure to act impartially would be in breach of this Constitution.
# The Supreme Emperor may decide what punishment to give a citizen that has been found to have committed a crime.
# As the supreme judicial authority, the Supreme Emperor is responsible for upholding the constitution of the United States. They may decide when the constitution has been broken, and who is responsible for breaking it. The only exception to this is if the Supreme Emperor is suspected of breaching the Constitution, in which case Part 3 of Article IV of this Constitution applies.
# The Supreme Emperor may choose to physically hold a court session in the Atlanta High Court, or hold the session via a discord text channel. The Supreme Emperor must let the defendant have reasonable time to defend themselves. All court sessions must be publicly viewable by citizens of the United States.
# The Supreme Emperor may choose to not hold a court session at all for non-serious crimes which can be dealt with immediately.
# In the extreme event of a court case where there is no evidence for either side, the Supreme Emperor may issue a "Imperial Declaration of Belief".
## This requires the Senate to review the case, and give their opinions by vote, with a simple majority to finalise their decision. This should only ever be used as a last resort.
## The Imperial Declaration of Belief shall state which side the Supreme Emperor, and the Senate, believes has the most compelling argument. That side shall be declared the winner of the trial, unless future evidence is provided.
## If future evidence is provided, the trial shall be reheard, and the decision shall be based on the new evidence presented.
## The “Imperial Declaration of Belief” shall be final and binding, unless the case is reheard.

=== ARTICLE VII - Bill of Rights ===

# No citizen may kill a fellow citizen without their permission, unless it is in self defence.
# In no town may there be unsafe conditions where it is easy for a citizen to die. For example, an exposed pit where a citizen could fall to their death, or die in lava.
# In all towns of the United States, no plots may have PvP toggled without permission from the Supreme Emperor or President.
## Only once permission is granted may a plot have PvP toggled. It is required that PvP only be toggled for recreational purposes, meaning people engaging in PvP are doing so by consent.
# The people of the United States hold the following to be true: Any town located in North America should have the freedom to choose whether to be in the United States or not. We will not force any town to be in our nation against their will. We believe that all other nations should also allow towns a freedom of choice. No Mayor should feel intimidated or pressured into joining a nation they do not want to be a part of just because a nation proclaims their land to be a part of their claims. If a nation wants to focus on nearby towns, then that is fine. But at no point should a nation intimidate or force a town to join just because they are within 'borders'. It must always be down to the town's decision.
# Blackmail shall be defined as an act of forcing another person/s to act in an involuntary manner by the threat of revealing or publicising either true or false information about a person or people unless certain demands are met.
## It is an extreme offence to commit blackmail on one or more persons. Senators who commit this offence are to be temporarily suspended from the Senate for 3 weeks. If the President, Vice President or any member of the Executive is found to have committed blackmail, they are to be removed from office for 3 weeks.
## The person who has been found to be blackmailed may request compensation from the blackmailer. On a case-by-case basis the Supreme Emperor may decide the level of compensation the person blackmailed may receive, and whether it is reasonable they receive compensation at all.

The capital city of the nation is [[Aurora:Atlanta|Atlanta]] which had a peak population count of 323 residents on the 5th September 2023. The United States was once the largest nation in Aurora with over 450 citizens, surpassing Indochina on the 9th September 2023. The capital city was the largest town in Aurora for over 10 weeks. The official United States discord is: https://discord.gg/C3cmFB2fFQ . The United States Empire is a member of the North American Union Meganation since 5th January 2024.

== Constitution of the United States (Empire) ==
This constitution, written by RobotGamer__, is for the in-game nation “United_States” whose official name is the “The United States Empire”, which may also be officially abbreviated to the “United States” or “US”. The Constitution must be followed by all citizens of the United States, including all members of Government. All towns in the United States must follow the Constitution.

The constitution was last amended on the 1st September 2023 with a 13-0 vote in favour in the Senate. The amendment amended Article IV of the Constitution, and it removed the codification of Presidential elections in favour of a more flexible imperial appointment process.

=== ARTICLE I - The Senate ===

# All legislative powers shall be vested in the Senate with the President having the power to veto all and any legislation passed by the Senate.
# The Senate shall be made up of all Mayors of all towns in the United States.
# Senators have the power to propose and vote on decisions/laws affecting the United States in the form of bills.
# Every town in the United States has 1 seat, and thus 1 vote, in the Senate by default - filled by their Mayor. However, towns gain a second seat once they reach 25 residents. This continues, adding a seat for every 25 residents. For example, a town with 75 residents would have the default Mayor seat, and then an additional 3 seats.
## A Mayor can choose to fill his additional seat/s with another/other resident/s from his town. This is the preferred option.
## Alternatively, a Mayor can choose to leave his additional seat/s vacant, and simply cast his additional votes himself. This is the default option.
# For a bill to pass, it must receive a majority (50%+1) vote of approval in the Senate. Once passed the bill will be sent to the President for ratification. If a bill receives less than a majority, or it receives a tie, then it fails.
## Bills that have failed cannot be copy, pasted and then proposed again in the Senate until 30 days have passed from the time they failed. They may, however, be proposed again if they have been rewritten and undergone change/s.
## Bills that have been vetoed can be proposed again immediately through the process of a veto override. This requires a three quarters (¾) majority vote of approval in the Senate. If it fails then Part 5 (a) Article I of this Constitution applies.
# Upon receiving the President’s ratification, a bill becomes struck into law and shall be known as an act.
# It is the role of the President and his Executive to introduce all acts that have been ratified.
# The President may dissolve the Senate during a national emergency. A national emergency may only be called by the Senate with a two-thirds (⅔) majority.
# The Emperor and/or President may pass acts by Decree when the number of town Mayors is below 5.
# The Constitution may be amended with a two-thirds (⅔) majority vote in the Senate. Approval from the President is not required for Constitutional amendments.
# In the event there is evidence of the President breaking the law, the Senate may hold a vote to impeach him. If the vote reaches a three-quarters (¾) majority in favour of impeachment, the President shall be removed (see Article IV for the procedure that will ensue following Presidential impeachment).

=== ARTICLE II - The House of Representatives ===

# The House of Representatives shall be an advisory chamber to the Senate. This means Representatives may propose bills and if they receive a majority vote of approval in the House of Representatives, the bill then goes to the Senate for a final vote. If a majority of the Senate vote in approval, then the bill goes to the President to receive ratification.
# All Representatives and Deputy Representatives are members of the House of Representatives. They are appointed by the Emperor in accordance to their loyalty and service to the United States.
# A Representative and Deputy Representative may have their title removed by the Emperor if they have broken the law, or if a majority vote in the Senate instructs a removal. Representatives may vote on, and propose, laws, Deputy Representatives may only vote on laws and not propose any.

=== ARTICLE III - The Emperor and the President ===

# The Emperor shall hold the in-game rank of Nation Leader of the United State at all times.
# The Emperor shall be regarded as the head of state, and the President the head of government.

# The Emperor may override vetoes and ratifications made by the President on bills passed by the Senate.
# The first Emperor of the United States shall be Emperor Robot the First, also known as RobotGamer__, who may pass on his imperial title whenever he wishes and to whomever he wishes, so long as they are in the House of Robot Imperial Family.
## Members of the House of Robot are chosen unilaterally by Emperor Robot I, and once in the House of Robot, you may never leave it unless you wish to leave, or with a unanimous vote in the Senate approving of the removal, making you almost permanently in line for the throne.
# The Emperor and President are responsible for holding votes in the Senate and House of Representatives.

The United States is an Imperial Constitutional Democratic Republic led by Supreme Emperor RobotGamer__ I. The nation goes by two names, both the United States and the United States Empire. The capital city of the nation is [[Aurora:Atlanta|Atlanta]] which had a peak population count of 323 residents on the 5th September 2023. The United States was once the largest nation in Aurora with over 450 citizens, surpassing Indochina on the 9th September 2023. The capital city was the largest town in Aurora for over 10 weeks.

== Constitution of the United States (Empire) ==
This constitution, written by RobotGamer__, is for the in-game nation “United_States” whose official name is the “The United States Empire”, which may also be officially abbreviated to the “United States” or “US”. The Constitution must be followed by all citizens of the United States, including all members of Government. All towns in the United States must follow the Constitution.

The constitution was last amended on the 1st September 2023 with a 13-0 vote in favour in the Senate. The amendment amended Article IV of the Constitution, and it removed the codification of Presidential elections in favour of a more flexible imperial appointment process.

=== ARTICLE I - The Senate ===

# All legislative powers shall be vested in the Senate with the President having the power to veto all and any legislation passed by the Senate.
# The Senate shall be made up of all Mayors of all towns in the United States.
# Senators have the power to propose and vote on decisions/laws affecting the United States in the form of bills.
# Every town in the United States has 1 seat, and thus 1 vote, in the Senate by default - filled by their Mayor. However, towns gain a second seat once they reach 25 residents. This continues, adding a seat for every 25 residents. For example, a town with 75 residents would have the default Mayor seat, and then an additional 3 seats.
## A Mayor can choose to fill his additional seat/s with another/other resident/s from his town. This is the preferred option.
## Alternatively, a Mayor can choose to leave his additional seat/s vacant, and simply cast his additional votes himself. This is the default option.
# For a bill to pass, it must receive a majority (50%+1) vote of approval in the Senate. Once passed the bill will be sent to the President for ratification. If a bill receives less than a majority, or it receives a tie, then it fails.
## Bills that have failed cannot be copy, pasted and then proposed again in the Senate until 30 days have passed from the time they failed. They may, however, be proposed again if they have been rewritten and undergone change/s.
## Bills that have been vetoed can be proposed again immediately through the process of a veto override. This requires a three quarters (¾) majority vote of approval in the Senate. If it fails then Part 5 (a) Article I of this Constitution applies.
# Upon receiving the President’s ratification, a bill becomes struck into law and shall be known as an act.
# It is the role of the President and his Executive to introduce all acts that have been ratified.
# The President may dissolve the Senate during a national emergency. A national emergency may only be called by the Senate with a two-thirds (⅔) majority.
# The Emperor and/or President may pass acts by Decree when the number of town Mayors is below 5.
# The Constitution may be amended with a two-thirds (⅔) majority vote in the Senate. Approval from the President is not required for Constitutional amendments.
# In the event there is evidence of the President breaking the law, the Senate may hold a vote to impeach him. If the vote reaches a three-quarters (¾) majority in favour of impeachment, the President shall be removed (see Article IV for the procedure that will ensue following Presidential impeachment).

=== ARTICLE II - The House of Representatives ===

# The House of Representatives shall be an advisory chamber to the Senate. This means Representatives may propose bills and if they receive a majority vote of approval in the House of Representatives, the bill then goes to the Senate for a final vote. If a majority of the Senate vote in approval, then the bill goes to the President to receive ratification.
# All Representatives and Deputy Representatives are members of the House of Representatives. They are appointed by the Emperor in accordance to their loyalty and service to the United States.
# A Representative and Deputy Representative may have their title removed by the Emperor if they have broken the law, or if a majority vote in the Senate instructs a removal. Representatives may vote on, and propose, laws, Deputy Representatives may only vote on laws and not propose any.

=== ARTICLE III - The Emperor and the President ===

# The Emperor shall hold the in-game rank of Nation Leader of the United State at all times.
# The Emperor shall be regarded as the head of state, and the President the head of government.
# The Emperor may assume the position of President during times when both the offices of President and Vice President are vacant.
# The Emperor may override vetoes and ratifications made by the President on bills passed by the Senate.
# The first Emperor of the United States shall be Emperor Robot the First, also known as RobotGamer__, who may pass on his imperial title whenever he wishes and to whomever he wishes, so long as they are in the House of Robot Imperial Family.
## Members of the House of Robot are chosen unilaterally by Emperor Robot I, and once in the House of Robot, you may never leave it unless you wish to leave, or with a unanimous vote in the Senate approving of the removal, making you almost permanently in line for the throne.
# The Emperor and President are responsible for holding votes in the Senate and House of Representatives. If a Senator or Representative wishes to put a bill up for vote, they must send the bill to the Emperor and/or President who must then place the bill up for vote. The Emperor and President are not allowed to refuse to put a bill up for vote.

=== ARTICLE IV - Presidential Appointment ===

# The Emperor shall decide who to make President and Vice President, or whether he should assume the position of President himself.
# It is up to the Emperor whether he would like to seek assistance with this decision, whether that be by public vote, a Senate vote, both, or nothing at all.

=== ARTICLE V - The Executive ===

# The Executive shall be made up of the President, Vice-President and their Cabinet. The President wields the power to create cabinet positions and department leaders to help execute the duties of the Executive.
# In the event the President resigns, becomes inactive for a period of 14 days without notification to the Senate, or is impeached, the Vice President is to assume his position as President.
# If there is evidence of the Emperor, President or any member of the Executive breaking the Constitution, the Senate may hold a vote on whether or not the official in question has breached the Constitution.
## If the vote receives a unanimous vote of approval, they are to be removed from their position and permanently banned from standing for President, Vice President and entering the Executive.
## If the vote is on the Emperor and unanimously passes, then the House of Representatives is to hold a vote along with a vote in the Executive where the President, Vice President and all their department leaders are to vote as well. If the House of Representatives and Executive also vote unanimously in favour of removal, the Emperor is to resign as Nation Leader and hand their position to the next in line to the throne.
## Officials who have been removed for breaching the Constitution are not allowed to be appointed, or elected, back into the Executive unless the Senate votes unanimously in favour of allowing them.
# Treason shall be defined as plotting or attempting to unconstitutionally seize power in any way that belongs to the Emperor, President and the Executive of the United States.
## Committing Treason shall be the highest crime a citizen can commit. Anyone found to have committed treason are to be permanently banned from holding a seat in the Senate, House of Representatives, becoming the Emperor, President, Vice President or any position in the Executive. This can only be reversed by a unanimous vote of approval in the Senate, House of Representatives and Executive.

=== ARTICLE VI - The Judiciary ===

# The Emperor is the supreme judicial authority in the United States who acts as the sole judge in court. As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor decides whether a citizen has or has not broken the law. The Emperor must use evidence to make his decision.
# The Emperor must act impartially in all court cases. Failure to act impartially would be in breach of this Constitution.
# The Emperor may decide what punishment to give a citizen that has been found to have committed a crime.
# As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor is responsible for upholding the constitution of the United States. They may decide when the constitution has been broken, and who is responsible for breaking it. The only exception to this is if the Emperor is suspected of breaching the Constitution, in which case Part 3 of Article IV of this Constitution applies.
# The Emperor may choose to physically hold a court session in the Atlanta High Court, or hold the session via a discord text channel. The Emperor must let the defendant have reasonable time to defend themselves. All court sessions must be publicly viewable by citizens of the United States.
# The Emperor may choose to not hold a court session at all for non-serious crimes which can be dealt with immediately.
# In the extreme event of a court case where there is no evidence for either side, the Emperor may issue a "Imperial Declaration of Belief".
## This requires the Senate to review the case, and give their opinions by vote, with a simple majority to finalise their decision. This should only ever be used as a last resort.
## The Imperial Declaration of Belief shall state which side the Emperor, and the Senate, believes has the most compelling argument. That side shall be declared the winner of the trial, unless future evidence is provided.
## If future evidence is provided, the trial shall be reheard, and the decision shall be based on the new evidence presented.
## The “Imperial Declaration of Belief” shall be final and binding, unless the case is reheard.

If a Senator or Representative wishes to put a bill up for vote, they must send the bill to the Emperor and/or President who must then place the bill up for vote. The Emperor and President are not allowed to refuse to put a bill up for vote.

=== ARTICLE IV - Presidential Appointment ===

# The Emperor shall decide who to make President and Vice President, or whether he should assume the position of President himself.
# It is up to the Emperor whether he would like to seek assistance with this decision, whether that be by public vote, a Senate vote, both, or nothing at all.

=== ARTICLE V - The Executive ===

# The Executive shall be made up of the President, Vice-President and their Cabinet. The President wields the power to create cabinet positions and department leaders to help execute the duties of the Executive.
# In the event the President resigns, becomes inactive for a period of 14 days without notification to the Senate, or is impeached, the Vice President is to assume his position as President.
# If there is evidence of the Emperor, President or any member of the Executive breaking the Constitution, the Senate may hold a vote on whether or not the official in question has breached the Constitution.
## If the vote receives a unanimous vote of approval, they are to be removed from their position and permanently banned from standing for President, Vice President and entering the Executive.
## If the vote is on the Emperor and unanimously passes, then the House of Representatives is to hold a vote along with a vote in the Executive where the President, Vice President and all their department leaders are to vote as well. If the House of Representatives and Executive also vote unanimously in favour of removal, the Emperor is to resign as Nation Leader and hand their position to the next in line to the throne.
## Officials who have been removed for breaching the Constitution are not allowed to be appointed, or elected, back into the Executive unless the Senate votes unanimously in favour of allowing them.
# Treason shall be defined as plotting or attempting to unconstitutionally seize power in any way that belongs to the Emperor, President and the Executive of the United States.
## Committing Treason shall be the highest crime a citizen can commit. Anyone found to have committed treason are to be permanently banned from holding a seat in the Senate, House of Representatives, becoming the Emperor, President, Vice President or any position in the Executive. This can only be reversed by a unanimous vote of approval in the Senate, House of Representatives and Executive.

=== ARTICLE VI - The Judiciary ===

# The Emperor is the supreme judicial authority in the United States who acts as the sole judge in court. As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor decides whether a citizen has or has not broken the law. The Emperor must use evidence to make his decision.
# The Emperor must act impartially in all court cases. Failure to act impartially would be in breach of this Constitution.
# The Emperor may decide what punishment to give a citizen that has been found to have committed a crime.
# As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor is responsible for upholding the constitution of the United States. They may decide when the constitution has been broken, and who is responsible for breaking it. The only exception to this is if the Emperor is suspected of breaching the Constitution, in which case Part 3 of Article IV of this Constitution applies.
# The Emperor may choose to physically hold a court session in the Atlanta High Court, or hold the session via a discord text channel. The Emperor must let the defendant have reasonable time to defend themselves. All court sessions must be publicly viewable by citizens of the United States.
# The Emperor may choose to not hold a court session at all for non-serious crimes which can be dealt with immediately.
# In the extreme event of a court case where there is no evidence for either side, the Emperor may issue a "Imperial Declaration of Belief".
## This requires the Senate to review the case, and give their opinions by vote, with a simple majority to finalise their decision. This should only ever be used as a last resort.
## The Imperial Declaration of Belief shall state which side the Emperor, and the Senate, believes has the most compelling argument. That side shall be declared the winner of the trial, unless future evidence is provided.
## If future evidence is provided, the trial shall be reheard, and the decision shall be based on the new evidence presented.
## The “Imperial Declaration of Belief” shall be final and binding, unless the case is reheard.

=== ARTICLE VII - Bill of Rights ===

# No citizen may kill a fellow citizen without their permission, unless it is in self defence.
# In no town may there be unsafe conditions where it is easy for a citizen to die. For example, an exposed pit where a citizen could fall to their death, or die in lava.
# In all towns of the United States, no plots may have PvP toggled without permission from the Emperor or President.
## Only once permission is granted may a plot have PvP toggled. It is required that PvP only be toggled for recreational purposes, meaning people engaging in PvP are doing so by consent.
# The people of the United States hold the following to be true: Any town located in North America should have the freedom to choose whether to be in the United States or not. We will not force any town to be in our nation against their will. We believe that all other nations should also allow towns a freedom of choice. No Mayor should feel intimidated or pressured into joining a nation they do not want to be a part of just because a nation proclaims their land to be a part of their claims. If a nation wants to focus on nearby towns, then that is fine. But at no point should a nation intimidate or force a town to join just because they are within 'borders'. It must always be down to the town's decision.
# Blackmail shall be defined as an act of forcing another person/s to act in an involuntary manner by the threat of revealing or publicising either true or false information about a person or people unless certain demands are met.
## It is an extreme offence to commit blackmail on one or more persons. Senators who commit this offence are to be temporarily suspended from the Senate for 3 weeks. If the President, Vice President or any member of the Executive is found to have committed blackmail, they are to be removed from office for 3 weeks.
## The person who has been found to be blackmailed may request compensation from the blackmailer. On a case-by-case basis the Emperor may decide the level of compensation the person blackmailed may receive, and whether it is reasonable they receive compensation at all.

{{DISPLAYTITLE:Atlanta (Aurora)}}
[[File:Atlanta Coat of Arms.png|thumb|Atlanta Seal]]

== Overview ==
Atlanta is the capital city of the [[United States]] and a metropolitan city that is especially friendly to new players. All residents have the opportunity to have a vote on laws and decisions if they rank up to become a member of the House of Representatives. The city ''Mayor'' is '''RobotGamer__''' alongside ''Co-Mayor'' '''Bliksemman'''.

== History ==

=== Early History ===

==== Town Creation ====
Atlanta was founded by '''RobotGamer__''' on May 3, 2022 just 2 days after the early access release of Terra Aurora. Some early residents include '''Bliksemman''', '''gebalat''' and '''MartialFelix'''.

The town joined the nation of Louisiana, which later became known as the United States.

==== Early Plans (May 2022) ====
'''RobotGamer__''' originally planned to create the Kingdom of America which would have a Constitutional Monarchy, with him as King. In the early access days, there were discussions between '''RobotGamer__''' and '''karatoss''' (the leader of Louisiana) over the potential of creating a Kingdom of America, which Louisiana would merge into. These plans never came to fruition, and the idea for a Kingdom of America was swiftly dropped after seeing the many nations being created across North America.

As a result, '''RobotGamer__''' began to focus on creating something more realistic: the Kingdom of Georgia. The claims of which would be based around the real life State of Georgia. A government for the nation has been fully established, with an entrenched Constitution that emphasises the superiority of the Senate in having the ability to amend the Constitution without the need for the King's approval. The Senate is to be made up of all Mayors of the nation, and vote on all laws and major decisions made. Progress towards forming the nation has been slow, but picked up dramatically towards the end of 2022.

=== Mid History ===

==== Revival ====
After a short period of inactivity from '''RobotGamer__''', lasting about 2 weeks, he decided to return and put a lot of energy into getting the town back on its feet again. '''Bliksemman''' proved to be a loyal resident who stuck around during this period of inactivity, and remained enthusiastic about helping out in the town. As a result, '''RobotGamer__''' appointed '''Bliksemman''' to the position of Co-Mayor, and he has proven a fantastic active Co-Mayor helping with town projects and recruitment.

==== Rapid Recruitment ====
Mayor of Atlanta, '''RobotGamer__''', began recruiting heavily in November, 2022. Town activity prior to November had been very poor, so '''RobotGamer__''' decided to get more active and ramp up recruitment. Between November 17, 2022 and December 27, 2022 he managed to recruit over 60 new residents. This made Atlanta one of the largest towns in the continent.

'''Reformation of the [[United States]]'''

Atlanta proved a loyal member of the United States nation (previously named Louisiana), and when US leadership became inactive, RobotGamer__ spent two months negotiating to attempt to become the new nation leader. While RobotGamer__ was unsucceful in taking leadership, they did come to an agreement in the form of the '''[https://wiki.earthmc.net/wiki/United_States#:~:text=be%20found%20below.-,Reformation%20of%20the%20United%20States%20Treaty,Louisiana%E2%80%9D)%20had%20does%20not%20apply%20to%20the%20new%20%E2%80%9CUnited%20States%E2%80%9D%20nation.,-Constitution%20of%20the Reformation of the United States Treaty]''' which agreed that the nation would rename back to Louisiana, allowing RobotGamer__ to create a new United States nation. To this date, the United States has proven to be one of the most democratic nations in Aurora - having the most laws than any other nation. Atlanta has always been one of the largest in North America, and currently stands near the 100 resident mark.

=== Recent History ===
Thanks to the hard work and dedication of Atlanta resident, MakRouss, Atlanta rapidly increased its population during the summer of 2023. During this period Atlanta became the largest town in Aurora, reaching over 300 residents. Emperor and Mayor RobotGamer__ recognises MakRouss for his part in recruitment and awarded him the Medal of Freedom. He was also given a special mention during a speech given by the Emperor at the event celebrating Atlanta's 300 residents.

However, on the 26th November 2023 things took a turn for the worse when it came to MakRouss. Emperor RobotGamer__ announced the following on the U.S. discord: "I have something to announce to you all today that I feel you deserve to know. One of this empire's heroes, someone I have admired ever since he joined Atlanta, has committed heinous, despicable and wicked acts that cannot go unpunished. He has stooped to a low that I did not think was even possible. A former resident of Atlanta, and someone who just 10 days ago I awarded the rank of @✨Legend✨ to for his previous dedication to recruitment has committed an act of treason against the United States Empire. That man is MakRouss. MakRouss left Atlanta over a month ago to make his own town in South America, but ever since he has been targeting Atlanta in an attempt to steal our residents. While this frustrated me I still respected Mak for everything he did for Atlanta, I have even gone on record saying he was the best resident I have ever had in my 6+ years of playing EarthMC. On 24th November 2023, to my complete shock, Atlanta came under attack - we were griefed in 6 separate plots. The Great Atlanta Wall had been completely destroyed in these plots. It was to my suprise that the perpertrator of this grief was MakRouss. He was the only one trusted in these plots, and he has openly admitted his guilt to me via DMs. He claims he was paid by oIsar, leader of fake US, to grief us. Mak has proceeded to be incredibly rude, insulting and toxic to Atlantan residents. While me and Mak have not seen eye to eye since he left in October, I still respected him dearly for his service to the empire. But what he has become is unforgivable. We have been betrayed. So, with the power vested in me by the Constitution of the United States Empire, I hereby convict MakRouss of committing Treason and sentence him to death. I hereby issue a fine of 35,000 gold to MakRouss that he is required to pay to absolve him from his crimes."

A day later, RobotGamer__ had an update to give to the U.S. regarding MakRouss: "After inspecting the scenes of the grief, moderator fabinostalgia, has determined MakRouss and Elefftherios as the perpetrators of the grief. Elefftherios was found placing a Swastika outside the perimeter of Atlanta... It is clear these people lack any morality. We do not condone Nazism in the United States Empire, so anyone associated with MakRouss and Elefftherios will be permanently banned from this discord server."

Mak has proceeded to be incredibly rude, insulting and toxic to Atlantan residents. While me and Mak have not seen eye to eye since he left in October, I still respected him dearly for his service to the empire. But what he has become is unforgivable. We have been betrayed. So, with the power vested in me by the Constitution of the United States Empire, I hereby convict MakRouss of committing Treason and sentence him to death. I hereby issue a fine of 35,000 gold to MakRouss that he is required to pay to absolve him from his crimes."

A day later, RobotGamer__ had an update to give to the U.S. regarding MakRouss: "After inspecting the scenes of the grief, moderator fabinostalgia, has determined MakRouss and Elefftherios as the perpetrators of the grief. Elefftherios was found placing a Swastika outside the perimeter of Atlanta... It is clear these people lack any morality. We do not condone Nazism in the United States Empire, so anyone associated with MakRouss and Elefftherios will be permanently banned from this discord server."

== Overview ==
Atlanta is the capital city of the [[United States]] and a metropolitan city that is especially friendly to new players. All residents have the opportunity to have a vote on laws and decisions if they rank up to become a member of the House of Representatives. The city ''Mayor'' is '''RobotGamer__''' alongside ''Co-Mayor'' '''Bliksemman'''.

== History ==

=== Early History ===

==== Town Creation ====
Atlanta was founded by '''RobotGamer__''' on May 3, 2022 just 2 days after the early access release of Terra Aurora. Some early residents include '''Bliksemman''', '''gebalat''' and '''MartialFelix'''.

The town joined the nation of Louisiana, which later became known as the United States.

==== Early Plans (May 2022) ====
'''RobotGamer__''' originally planned to create the Kingdom of America which would have a Constitutional Monarchy, with him as King. In the early access days, there were discussions between '''RobotGamer__''' and '''karatoss''' (the leader of Louisiana) over the potential of creating a Kingdom of America, which Louisiana would merge into. These plans never came to fruition, and the idea for a Kingdom of America was swiftly dropped after seeing the many nations being created across North America.

As a result, '''RobotGamer__''' began to focus on creating something more realistic: the Kingdom of Georgia. The claims of which would be based around the real life State of Georgia. A government for the nation has been fully established, with an entrenched Constitution that emphasises the superiority of the Senate in having the ability to amend the Constitution without the need for the King's approval. The Senate is to be made up of all Mayors of the nation, and vote on all laws and major decisions made. Progress towards forming the nation has been slow, but picked up dramatically towards the end of 2022.

=== Mid History ===

==== Revival ====
After a short period of inactivity from '''RobotGamer__''', lasting about 2 weeks, he decided to return and put a lot of energy into getting the town back on its feet again. '''Bliksemman''' proved to be a loyal resident who stuck around during this period of inactivity, and remained enthusiastic about helping out in the town. As a result, '''RobotGamer__''' appointed '''Bliksemman''' to the position of Co-Mayor, and he has proven a fantastic active Co-Mayor helping with town projects and recruitment.

==== Rapid Recruitment ====
Mayor of Atlanta, '''RobotGamer__''', began recruiting heavily in November, 2022. Town activity prior to November had been very poor, so '''RobotGamer__''' decided to get more active and ramp up recruitment. Between November 17, 2022 and December 27, 2022 he managed to recruit over 60 new residents. This made Atlanta one of the largest towns in the continent.

'''Reformation of the [[United States]]'''

Atlanta proved a loyal member of the United States nation (previously named Louisiana), and when US leadership became inactive, RobotGamer__ spent two months negotiating to attempt to become the new nation leader. While RobotGamer__ was unsucceful in taking leadership, they did come to an agreement in the form of the '''[https://wiki.earthmc.net/wiki/United_States#:~:text=be%20found%20below.-,Reformation%20of%20the%20United%20States%20Treaty,Louisiana%E2%80%9D)%20had%20does%20not%20apply%20to%20the%20new%20%E2%80%9CUnited%20States%E2%80%9D%20nation.,-Constitution%20of%20the Reformation of the United States Treaty]''' which agreed that the nation would rename back to Louisiana, allowing RobotGamer__ to create a new United States nation. To this date, the United States has proven to be one of the most democratic nations in Aurora - having the most laws than any other nation. Atlanta has always been one of the largest in North America, and currently stands near the 100 resident mark.

=== Recent History ===
Thanks to the hard work and dedication of loyal Atlanta resident, Prince MakRouss, Atlanta rapidly increased its population during the summer of 2023. During this period Atlanta became the largest town in Aurora, reaching over 300 residents. Emperor and Mayor RobotGamer__ recognises MakRouss for his part in recruitment and awarded him the Medal of Freedom. He was also given a special mention during a speech given by the Emperor at the event celebrating Atlanta's 300 residents.

However, on the 26th November 2023 things took a turn for the worse when it came to MakRouss. Emperor RobotGamer__ announced the following on the U.S. discord: "I have something to announce to you all today that I feel you deserve to know. One of this empire's heroes, someone I have admired ever since he joined Atlanta, has committed heinous, despicable and wicked acts that cannot go unpunished. He has stooped to a low that I did not think was even possible. A former resident of Atlanta, and someone who just 10 days ago I awarded the rank of @✨Legend✨ to for his previous dedication to recruitment has committed an act of treason against the United States Empire. That man is MakRouss. MakRouss left Atlanta over a month ago to make his own town in South America, but ever since he has been targeting Atlanta in an attempt to steal our residents. While this frustrated me I still respected Mak for everything he did for Atlanta, I have even gone on record saying he was the best resident I have ever had in my 6+ years of playing EarthMC. On 24th November 2023, to my complete shock, Atlanta came under attack - we were griefed in 6 separate plots. The Great Atlanta Wall had been completely destroyed in these plots. It was to my suprise that the perpertrator of this grief was MakRouss. He was the only one trusted in these plots, and he has openly admitted his guilt to me via DMs. He claims he was paid by oIsar, leader of fake US, to grief us. Mak has proceeded to be incredibly rude, insulting and toxic to Atlantan residents. While me and Mak have not seen eye to eye since he left in October, I still respected him dearly for his service to the empire. But what he has become is unforgivable. We have been betrayed. So, with the power vested in me by the Constitution of the United States Empire, I hereby convict MakRouss of committing Treason and sentence him to death. I hereby issue a fine of 35,000 gold to MakRouss that he is required to pay to absolve him from his crimes."

A day later, RobotGamer__ had an update to give to the U.S. regarding MakRouss: "After inspecting the scenes of the grief, moderator fabinostalgia, has determined MakRouss and Elefftherios as the perpetrators of the grief. Elefftherios was found placing a Swastika outside the perimeter of Atlanta... It is clear these people lack any morality. We do not condone Nazism in the United States Empire, so anyone associated with MakRouss and Elefftherios will be permanently banned from this discord server."

The United States is an Imperial Constitutional Democratic Republic led by Emperor RobotGamer__ I. The nation goes by two names, both the United States and the United States Empire. The capital city of the nation is [[Aurora:Atlanta|Atlanta]] which had a peak population count of 323 residents on the 5th September 2023.

== Constitution of the United States (Empire) ==
This constitution, written by RobotGamer__, is for the in-game nation “United_States” whose official name is the “The United States Empire”, which may also be officially abbreviated to the “United States” or “US”. The Constitution must be followed by all citizens of the United States, including all members of Government. All towns in the United States must follow the Constitution.

The constitution was last amended on the 1st September 2023 with a 13-0 vote in favour in the Senate. The amendment amended Article IV of the Constitution, and it removed the codification of Presidential elections in favour of a more flexible imperial appointment process.

=== ARTICLE I - The Senate ===

# All legislative powers shall be vested in the Senate with the President having the power to veto all and any legislation passed by the Senate.
# The Senate shall be made up of all Mayors of all towns in the United States.
# Senators have the power to propose and vote on decisions/laws affecting the United States in the form of bills.
# Every town in the United States has 1 seat, and thus 1 vote, in the Senate by default - filled by their Mayor. However, towns gain a second seat once they reach 25 residents. This continues, adding a seat for every 25 residents. For example, a town with 75 residents would have the default Mayor seat, and then an additional 3 seats.
## A Mayor can choose to fill his additional seat/s with another/other resident/s from his town. This is the preferred option.
## Alternatively, a Mayor can choose to leave his additional seat/s vacant, and simply cast his additional votes himself. This is the default option.
# For a bill to pass, it must receive a majority (50%+1) vote of approval in the Senate. Once passed the bill will be sent to the President for ratification. If a bill receives less than a majority, or it receives a tie, then it fails.
## Bills that have failed cannot be copy, pasted and then proposed again in the Senate until 30 days have passed from the time they failed. They may, however, be proposed again if they have been rewritten and undergone change/s.
## Bills that have been vetoed can be proposed again immediately through the process of a veto override. This requires a three quarters (¾) majority vote of approval in the Senate. If it fails then Part 5 (a) Article I of this Constitution applies.
# Upon receiving the President’s ratification, a bill becomes struck into law and shall be known as an act.
# It is the role of the President and his Executive to introduce all acts that have been ratified.
# The President may dissolve the Senate during a national emergency. A national emergency may only be called by the Senate with a two-thirds (⅔) majority.
# The Emperor and/or President may pass acts by Decree when the number of town Mayors is below 5.
# The Constitution may be amended with a two-thirds (⅔) majority vote in the Senate. Approval from the President is not required for Constitutional amendments.
# In the event there is evidence of the President breaking the law, the Senate may hold a vote to impeach him. If the vote reaches a three-quarters (¾) majority in favour of impeachment, the President shall be removed and a new Presidential election held.

=== ARTICLE II - The House of Representatives ===

# The House of Representatives shall be an advisory chamber to the Senate. This means Representatives may propose bills and if they receive a majority vote of approval in the House of Representatives, the bill then goes to the Senate for a final vote. If a majority of the Senate vote in approval, then the bill goes to the President to receive ratification.
# All Representatives and Deputy Representatives are members of the House of Representatives. They are appointed by the Emperor in accordance to their loyalty and service to the United States.
# A Representative and Deputy Representative may have their title removed by the Emperor if they have broken the law, or if a majority vote in the Senate instructs a removal. Representatives may vote on, and propose, laws, Deputy Representatives may only vote on laws and not propose any.

=== ARTICLE III - The Emperor and the President ===

# The Emperor shall hold the in-game rank of Nation Leader of the United State at all times.
# The Emperor shall be regarded as the head of state, and the President the head of government.
# The Emperor may assume the position of President during times when both the offices of President and Vice President are vacant.
# The Emperor may override vetoes and ratifications made by the President on bills passed by the Senate.
# The first Emperor of the United States shall be Emperor Robot the First, also known as RobotGamer__, who may pass on his imperial title whenever he wishes and to whomever he wishes, so long as they are in the House of Robot Imperial Family.
## Members of the House of Robot are chosen unilaterally by Emperor Robot I, and once in the House of Robot, you may never leave it unless you wish to leave, or with a unanimous vote in the Senate approving of the removal, making you almost permanently in line for the throne.
# The Emperor and President are responsible for holding votes in the Senate and House of Representatives. If a Senator or Representative wishes to put a bill up for vote, they must send the bill to the Emperor and/or President who must then place the bill up for vote. The Emperor and President are not allowed to refuse to put a bill up for vote.

=== ARTICLE IV - Presidential Appointment ===

# The Emperor shall decide who to make President and Vice President, or whether he should assume the position of President himself.
# It is up to the Emperor whether he would like to seek assistance with this decision, whether that be by public vote, a Senate vote, both, or nothing at all.

=== ARTICLE V - The Executive ===

# The Executive shall be made up of the President, Vice-President and their Cabinet. The President wields the power to create cabinet positions and department leaders to help execute the duties of the Executive.
# In the event the President resigns, becomes inactive for a period of 14 days without notification to the Senate, or is impeached, the Vice President is to assume his position as President.
# If there is evidence of the Emperor, President or any member of the Executive breaking the Constitution, the Senate may hold a vote on whether or not the official in question has breached the Constitution.
## If the vote receives a unanimous vote of approval, they are to be removed from their position and permanently banned from standing for President, Vice President and entering the Executive.
## If the vote is on the Emperor and unanimously passes, then the House of Representatives is to hold a vote along with a vote in the Executive where the President, Vice President and all their department leaders are to vote as well. If the House of Representatives and Executive also vote unanimously in favour of removal, the Emperor is to resign as Nation Leader and hand their position to the next in line to the throne.
## Officials who have been removed for breaching the Constitution are not allowed to be appointed, or elected, back into the Executive unless the Senate votes unanimously in favour of allowing them.
# Treason shall be defined as plotting or attempting to unconstitutionally seize power in any way that belongs to the Emperor, President and the Executive of the United States.
## Committing Treason shall be the highest crime a citizen can commit. Anyone found to have committed treason are to be permanently banned from holding a seat in the Senate, House of Representatives, becoming the Emperor, President, Vice President or any position in the Executive. This can only be reversed by a unanimous vote of approval in the Senate, House of Representatives and Executive.

=== ARTICLE VI - The Judiciary ===

# The Emperor is the supreme judicial authority in the United States who acts as the sole judge in court. As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor decides whether a citizen has or has not broken the law. The Emperor must use evidence to make his decision.
# The Emperor must act impartially in all court cases. Failure to act impartially would be in breach of this Constitution.
# The Emperor may decide what punishment to give a citizen that has been found to have committed a crime.
# As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor is responsible for upholding the constitution of the United States. They may decide when the constitution has been broken, and who is responsible for breaking it. The only exception to this is if the Emperor is suspected of breaching the Constitution, in which case Part 3 of Article IV of this Constitution applies.
# The Emperor may choose to physically hold a court session in the Atlanta High Court, or hold the session via a discord text channel. The Emperor must let the defendant have reasonable time to defend themselves. All court sessions must be publicly viewable by citizens of the United States.
# The Emperor may choose to not hold a court session at all for non-serious crimes which can be dealt with immediately.
# In the extreme event of a court case where there is no evidence for either side, the Emperor may issue a "Imperial Declaration of Belief".
## This requires the Senate to review the case, and give their opinions by vote, with a simple majority to finalise their decision. This should only ever be used as a last resort.
## The Imperial Declaration of Belief shall state which side the Emperor, and the Senate, believes has the most compelling argument. That side shall be declared the winner of the trial, unless future evidence is provided.
## If future evidence is provided, the trial shall be reheard, and the decision shall be based on the new evidence presented.
## The “Imperial Declaration of Belief” shall be final and binding, unless the case is reheard.

=== ARTICLE VII - Bill of Rights ===

# No citizen may kill a fellow citizen without their permission, unless it is in self defence.

No Mayor should feel intimidated or pressured into joining a nation they do not want to be a part of just because a nation proclaims their land to be a part of their claims.

== Constitution of the United States (Empire) ==
This constitution, written by RobotGamer__, is for the in-game nation “United_States” whose official name is the “The United States Empire”, which may also be officially abbreviated to the “United States” or “US”. The Constitution must be followed by all citizens of the United States, including all members of Government. All towns in the United States must follow the Constitution.

The constitution was last amended on the 1st September 2023 with a 13-0 vote in favour in the Senate. The amendment amended Article IV of the Constitution, and it removed the codification of Presidential elections in favour of a more flexible imperial appointment process.

=== ARTICLE I - The Senate ===

# All legislative powers shall be vested in the Senate with the President having the power to veto all and any legislation passed by the Senate.
# The Senate shall be made up of all Mayors of all towns in the United States.
# Senators have the power to propose and vote on decisions/laws affecting the United States in the form of bills.
# Every town in the United States has 1 seat, and thus 1 vote, in the Senate by default - filled by their Mayor. However, towns gain a second seat once they reach 25 residents. This continues, adding a seat for every 25 residents. For example, a town with 75 residents would have the default Mayor seat, and then an additional 3 seats.
## A Mayor can choose to fill his additional seat/s with another/other resident/s from his town. This is the preferred option.
## Alternatively, a Mayor can choose to leave his additional seat/s vacant, and simply cast his additional votes himself. This is the default option.
# For a bill to pass, it must receive a majority (50%+1) vote of approval in the Senate. Once passed the bill will be sent to the President for ratification. If a bill receives less than a majority, or it receives a tie, then it fails.
## Bills that have failed cannot be copy, pasted and then proposed again in the Senate until 30 days have passed from the time they failed. They may, however, be proposed again if they have been rewritten and undergone change/s.
## Bills that have been vetoed can be proposed again immediately through the process of a veto override. This requires a three quarters (¾) majority vote of approval in the Senate. If it fails then Part 5 (a) Article I of this Constitution applies.
# Upon receiving the President’s ratification, a bill becomes struck into law and shall be known as an act.
# It is the role of the President and his Executive to introduce all acts that have been ratified.
# The President may dissolve the Senate during a national emergency. A national emergency may only be called by the Senate with a two-thirds (⅔) majority.
# The Emperor and/or President may pass acts by Decree when the number of town Mayors is below 5.
# The Constitution may be amended with a two-thirds (⅔) majority vote in the Senate. Approval from the President is not required for Constitutional amendments.
# In the event there is evidence of the President breaking the law, the Senate may hold a vote to impeach him. If the vote reaches a three-quarters (¾) majority in favour of impeachment, the President shall be removed and a new Presidential election held.

=== ARTICLE II - The House of Representatives ===

# The House of Representatives shall be an advisory chamber to the Senate. This means Representatives may propose bills and if they receive a majority vote of approval in the House of Representatives, the bill then goes to the Senate for a final vote. If a majority of the Senate vote in approval, then the bill goes to the President to receive ratification.
# All Representatives and Deputy Representatives are members of the House of Representatives. They are appointed by the Emperor in accordance to their loyalty and service to the United States.
# A Representative and Deputy Representative may have their title removed by the Emperor if they have broken the law, or if a majority vote in the Senate instructs a removal. Representatives may vote on, and propose, laws, Deputy Representatives may only vote on laws and not propose any.

=== ARTICLE III - The Emperor and the President ===

# The Emperor shall hold the in-game rank of Nation Leader of the United State at all times.
# The Emperor shall be regarded as the head of state, and the President the head of government.
# The Emperor may assume the position of President during times when both the offices of President and Vice President are vacant.
# The Emperor may override vetoes and ratifications made by the President on bills passed by the Senate.
# The first Emperor of the United States shall be Emperor Robot the First, also known as RobotGamer__, who may pass on his imperial title whenever he wishes and to whomever he wishes, so long as they are in the House of Robot Imperial Family.
## Members of the House of Robot are chosen unilaterally by Emperor Robot I, and once in the House of Robot, you may never leave it unless you wish to leave, or with a unanimous vote in the Senate approving of the removal, making you almost permanently in line for the throne.
# The Emperor and President are responsible for holding votes in the Senate and House of Representatives. If a Senator or Representative wishes to put a bill up for vote, they must send the bill to the Emperor and/or President who must then place the bill up for vote. The Emperor and President are not allowed to refuse to put a bill up for vote.

=== ARTICLE IV - Presidential Appointment ===

# The Emperor shall decide who to make President and Vice President, or whether he should assume the position of President himself.
# It is up to the Emperor whether he would like to seek assistance with this decision, whether that be by public vote, a Senate vote, both, or nothing at all.

=== ARTICLE V - The Executive ===

# The Executive shall be made up of the President, Vice-President and their Cabinet. The President wields the power to create cabinet positions and department leaders to help execute the duties of the Executive.
# In the event the President resigns, becomes inactive for a period of 14 days without notification to the Senate, or is impeached, the Vice President is to assume his position as President.
# If there is evidence of the Emperor, President or any member of the Executive breaking the Constitution, the Senate may hold a vote on whether or not the official in question has breached the Constitution.
## If the vote receives a unanimous vote of approval, they are to be removed from their position and permanently banned from standing for President, Vice President and entering the Executive.
## If the vote is on the Emperor and unanimously passes, then the House of Representatives is to hold a vote along with a vote in the Executive where the President, Vice President and all their department leaders are to vote as well. If the House of Representatives and Executive also vote unanimously in favour of removal, the Emperor is to resign as Nation Leader and hand their position to the next in line to the throne.
## Officials who have been removed for breaching the Constitution are not allowed to be appointed, or elected, back into the Executive unless the Senate votes unanimously in favour of allowing them.
# Treason shall be defined as plotting or attempting to unconstitutionally seize power in any way that belongs to the Emperor, President and the Executive of the United States.
## Committing Treason shall be the highest crime a citizen can commit. Anyone found to have committed treason are to be permanently banned from holding a seat in the Senate, House of Representatives, becoming the Emperor, President, Vice President or any position in the Executive. This can only be reversed by a unanimous vote of approval in the Senate, House of Representatives and Executive.

=== ARTICLE VI - The Judiciary ===

# The Emperor is the supreme judicial authority in the United States who acts as the sole judge in court. As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor decides whether a citizen has or has not broken the law. The Emperor must use evidence to make his decision.
# The Emperor must act impartially in all court cases. Failure to act impartially would be in breach of this Constitution.
# The Emperor may decide what punishment to give a citizen that has been found to have committed a crime.
# As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor is responsible for upholding the constitution of the United States. They may decide when the constitution has been broken, and who is responsible for breaking it. The only exception to this is if the Emperor is suspected of breaching the Constitution, in which case Part 3 of Article IV of this Constitution applies.
# The Emperor may choose to physically hold a court session in the Atlanta High Court, or hold the session via a discord text channel. The Emperor must let the defendant have reasonable time to defend themselves. All court sessions must be publicly viewable by citizens of the United States.
# The Emperor may choose to not hold a court session at all for non-serious crimes which can be dealt with immediately.
# In the extreme event of a court case where there is no evidence for either side, the Emperor may issue a "Imperial Declaration of Belief".
## This requires the Senate to review the case, and give their opinions by vote, with a simple majority to finalise their decision. This should only ever be used as a last resort.
## The Imperial Declaration of Belief shall state which side the Emperor, and the Senate, believes has the most compelling argument. That side shall be declared the winner of the trial, unless future evidence is provided.
## If future evidence is provided, the trial shall be reheard, and the decision shall be based on the new evidence presented.
## The “Imperial Declaration of Belief” shall be final and binding, unless the case is reheard.

=== ARTICLE VII - Bill of Rights ===

# No citizen may kill a fellow citizen without their permission, unless it is in self defence.
# In no town may there be unsafe conditions where it is easy for a citizen to die. For example, an exposed pit where a citizen could fall to their death, or die in lava.
# In all towns of the United States, no plots may have PvP toggled without permission from the Emperor or President.

# The Emperor is the supreme judicial authority in the United States who acts as the sole judge in court. As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor decides whether a citizen has or has not broken the law. The Emperor must use evidence to make his decision.
# The Emperor must act impartially in all court cases. Failure to act impartially would be in breach of this Constitution.
# The Emperor may decide what punishment to give a citizen that has been found to have committed a crime.
# As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor is responsible for upholding the constitution of the United States. They may decide when the constitution has been broken, and who is responsible for breaking it. The only exception to this is if the Emperor is suspected of breaching the Constitution, in which case Part 3 of Article IV of this Constitution applies.
# The Emperor may choose to physically hold a court session in the Atlanta High Court, or hold the session via a discord text channel. The Emperor must let the defendant have reasonable time to defend themselves. All court sessions must be publicly viewable by citizens of the United States.
# The Emperor may choose to not hold a court session at all for non-serious crimes which can be dealt with immediately.
# In the extreme event of a court case where there is no evidence for either side, the Emperor may issue a "Imperial Declaration of Belief".
## This requires the Senate to review the case, and give their opinions by vote, with a simple majority to finalise their decision. This should only ever be used as a last resort.
## The Imperial Declaration of Belief shall state which side the Emperor, and the Senate, believes has the most compelling argument. That side shall be declared the winner of the trial, unless future evidence is provided.
## If future evidence is provided, the trial shall be reheard, and the decision shall be based on the new evidence presented.
## The “Imperial Declaration of Belief” shall be final and binding, unless the case is reheard.

=== ARTICLE VII - Bill of Rights ===

# No citizen may kill a fellow citizen without their permission, unless it is in self defence.
# In no town may there be unsafe conditions where it is easy for a citizen to die. For example, an exposed pit where a citizen could fall to their death, or die in lava.
# In all towns of the United States, no plots may have PvP toggled without permission from the Emperor or President.
## Only once permission is granted may a plot have PvP toggled. It is required that PvP only be toggled for recreational purposes, meaning people engaging in PvP are doing so by consent.
# The people of the United States hold the following to be true: Any town located in North America should have the freedom to choose whether to be in the United States or not. We will not force any town to be in our nation against their will. We believe that all other nations should also allow towns a freedom of choice. No Mayor should feel intimidated or pressured into joining a nation they do not want to be a part of just because a nation proclaims their land to be a part of their claims. If a nation wants to focus on nearby towns, then that is fine. But at no point should a nation intimidate or force a town to join just because they are within 'borders'. It must always be down to the town's decision.
# Blackmail shall be defined as an act of forcing another person/s to act in an involuntary manner by the threat of revealing or publicising either true or false information about a person or people unless certain demands are met.
## It is an extreme offence to commit blackmail on one or more persons. Senators who commit this offence are to be temporarily suspended from the Senate for 3 weeks. If the President, Vice President or any member of the Executive is found to have committed blackmail, they are to be removed from office for 3 weeks.
## The person who has been found to be blackmailed may request compensation from the blackmailer. On a case-by-case basis the Emperor may decide the level of compensation the person blackmailed may receive, and whether it is reasonable they receive compensation at all.

== Overview ==
[[File:Flag of the Kingdom of America.png|thumb|Flag of the United States Empire|450x450px]]The United States is an Imperial Constitutional Democratic Republic led by Emperor RobotGamer__ I. The nation goes by two names, both the United States and the United States Empire. The capital city of the nation is [[Atlanta]] with a population count of over 300 as of the time of writing. The United States currently sits as the second largest nation in Aurora, amassing over 400 citizens. The official United States discord is: https://discord.gg/U5TDCtd4WN
[[File:Atlanta Town Spawn.png|none|thumb|700x700px|Capital city of the United States, Atlanta.]]

== Constitution of the United States (Empire) ==
This constitution, written by RobotGamer__, is for the in-game nation “United_States” whose official name is the “The United States Empire”, which may also be officially abbreviated to the “United States” or “US”. The Constitution must be followed by all citizens of the United States, including all members of Government. All towns in the United States must follow the Constitution.

=== ARTICLE I - The Senate ===

# All legislative powers shall be vested in the Senate with the President having the power to veto all and any legislation passed by the Senate.
# The Senate shall be made up of all Mayors of all towns in the United States.
# Senators have the power to propose and vote on decisions/laws affecting the United States in the form of bills.
# Every town in the United States has 1 seat, and thus 1 vote, in the Senate by default - filled by their Mayor. However, towns gain a second seat once they reach 25 residents. This continues, adding a seat for every 25 residents. For example, a town with 75 residents would have the default Mayor seat, and then an additional 3 seats.
## A Mayor can choose to fill his additional seat/s with another/other resident/s from his town. This is the preferred option.
## Alternatively, a Mayor can choose to leave his additional seat/s vacant, and simply cast his additional votes himself. This is the default option.
# For a bill to pass, it must receive a majority (50%+1) vote of approval in the Senate. Once passed the bill will be sent to the President for ratification. If a bill receives less than a majority, or it receives a tie, then it fails.
## Bills that have failed cannot be copy, pasted and then proposed again in the Senate until 30 days have passed from the time they failed. They may, however, be proposed again if they have been rewritten and undergone change/s.
## Bills that have been vetoed can be proposed again immediately through the process of a veto override. This requires a three quarters (¾) majority vote of approval in the Senate. If it fails then Part 5 (a) Article I of this Constitution applies.
# Upon receiving the President’s ratification, a bill becomes struck into law and shall be known as an act.
# It is the role of the President and his Executive to introduce all acts that have been ratified.
# The President may dissolve the Senate during a national emergency. A national emergency may only be called by the Senate with a two-thirds (⅔) majority.
# The Emperor and/or President may pass acts by Decree when the number of town Mayors is below 5.
# The Constitution may be amended with a two-thirds (⅔) majority vote in the Senate. Approval from the President is not required for Constitutional amendments.
# In the event there is evidence of the President breaking the law, the Senate may hold a vote to impeach him. If the vote reaches a three-quarters (¾) majority in favour of impeachment, the President shall be removed and a new Presidential election held.

=== ARTICLE II - The House of Representatives ===

# The House of Representatives shall be an advisory chamber to the Senate. This means Representatives may propose bills and if they receive a majority vote of approval in the House of Representatives, the bill then goes to the Senate for a final vote. If a majority of the Senate vote in approval, then the bill goes to the President to receive ratification.
# All Representatives and Deputy Representatives are members of the House of Representatives. They are appointed by the Emperor in accordance to their loyalty and service to the United States.
# A Representative and Deputy Representative may have their title removed by the Emperor if they have broken the law, or if a majority vote in the Senate instructs a removal. Representatives may vote on, and propose, laws, Deputy Representatives may only vote on laws and not propose any.

=== ARTICLE III - The Emperor and the President ===

# The Emperor shall hold the in-game rank of Nation Leader of the United State at all times.
# The Emperor shall be regarded as the head of state, and the President the head of government.
# The Emperor may assume the position of President during times when both the offices of President and Vice President are vacant.
# The Emperor may override vetoes and ratifications made by the President on bills passed by the Senate.
# The first Emperor of the United States shall be Emperor Robot the First, also known as RobotGamer__, who may pass on his imperial title whenever he wishes and to whomever he wishes, so long as they are in the House of Robot Imperial Family.
## Members of the House of Robot are chosen unilaterally by Emperor Robot I, and once in the House of Robot, you may never leave it unless you wish to leave, or with a unanimous vote in the Senate approving of the removal, making you almost permanently in line for the throne.
# The Emperor and President are responsible for holding votes in the Senate and House of Representatives. If a Senator or Representative wishes to put a bill up for vote, they must send the bill to the Emperor and/or President who must then place the bill up for vote. The Emperor and President are not allowed to refuse to put a bill up for vote.

=== ARTICLE IV - Presidential Elections ===

# The President shall be directly democratically elected every 90 days. It is the Emperor’s responsibility to ensure the election is held fairly via the United States discord (<nowiki>https://discord.gg/U5TDCtd4WN</nowiki>).
# Any citizen of the United States who has been a citizen for a minimum of 30 days may run for President.
## To apply to stand in the election, a citizen must have a running-mate who will be their Vice President if elected.
## A citizen may not stand as a candidate for President without also having a running-mate candidate for Vice President.
# All United States citizens who have been a citizen for a minimum of 14 days prior to the election have the right to vote for the President.
## Citizens who are currently wanted for breaking the law of the United States may not stand in the election. Only once they have served their punishment may they stand. See Part 4 (a), Article V and Part 5 (a), Article VII of this Constitution for how committing Treason and/or Blackmail affect this.
# The Presidential Election shall have two rounds. The first round shall see all candidates up for vote. The top two candidates with the most votes make it to the final round. In the final round citizens must vote a second time, but only voting for one of the two candidates. The candidate with the most votes wins the election and becomes President, along with their running-mate who becomes the Vice President, until the next election 90 days later. Citizens may only cast one vote in each round.
## In the event that any round ends in a tie, a further “run-off” round is held.
## If a run-off of the first round is a tie and there are more than two candidates, then the Emperor decides which final two candidates will reach the final round.
## If a run-off of the final round is a tie, then one of the candidates becomes the President for the first 45 days in the 90 day term, with the other candidate becoming his Vice President for that time. They then swap positions for the remaining 45 days. If the two candidates cannot agree amongst themselves what order they become President, then the Emperor may choose.
# In the event only one candidate stands for President, an election would thus not be possible meaning the Emperor may choose whether or not to assume the position of President himself, or let the candidate assume the position.

=== ARTICLE V - The Executive ===

# The Executive shall be made up of the President, Vice-President and their Cabinet. The President wields the power to create cabinet positions and department leaders to help execute the duties of the Executive.
# In the event the President resigns, becomes inactive for a period of 14 days without notification to the Senate, or is impeached, the Vice President is to assume his position as President.
# If there is evidence of the Emperor, President or any member of the Executive breaking the Constitution, the Senate may hold a vote on whether or not the official in question has breached the Constitution.
## If the vote receives a unanimous vote of approval, they are to be removed from their position and permanently banned from standing for President, Vice President and entering the Executive.
## If the vote is on the Emperor and unanimously passes, then the House of Representatives is to hold a vote along with a vote in the Executive where the President, Vice President and all their department leaders are to vote as well. If the House of Representatives and Executive also vote unanimously in favour of removal, the Emperor is to resign as Nation Leader and hand their position to the next in line to the throne.
## Officials who have been removed for breaching the Constitution are not allowed to be appointed, or elected, back into the Executive unless the Senate votes unanimously in favour of allowing them.
# Treason shall be defined as plotting or attempting to unconstitutionally seize power in any way that belongs to the Emperor, President and the Executive of the United States.
## Committing Treason shall be the highest crime a citizen can commit. Anyone found to have committed treason are to be permanently banned from holding a seat in the Senate, House of Representatives, becoming the Emperor, President, Vice President or any position in the Executive. This can only be reversed by a unanimous vote of approval in the Senate, House of Representatives and Executive.

=== ARTICLE VI - The Judiciary ===

# The Emperor is the supreme judicial authority in the United States who acts as the sole judge in court. As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor decides whether a citizen has or has not broken the law. The Emperor must use evidence to make his decision.
# The Emperor must act impartially in all court cases. Failure to act impartially would be in breach of this Constitution.

{{DISPLAYTITLE:Atlanta (Aurora)}}
[[File:Atlanta Coat of Arms.png|thumb|Atlanta Seal]]

== Overview ==
Atlanta is the capital city of the [[United States]] and a metropolitan city that is especially friendly to new players. All residents have the opportunity to have a vote on laws and decisions if they rank up to become a member of the House of Representatives. The city ''Mayor'' is '''RobotGamer__''' alongside ''Co-Mayor'' '''Bliksemman'''.

== History ==

=== Early History ===

==== Town Creation ====
Atlanta was founded by '''RobotGamer__''' on May 3, 2022 just 2 days after the early access release of Terra Aurora. Some early residents include '''Bliksemman''', '''gebalat''' and '''MartialFelix'''.

The town joined the nation of Louisiana, which later became known as the United States.

==== Early Plans (May 2022) ====
'''RobotGamer__''' originally planned to create the Kingdom of America which would have a Constitutional Monarchy, with him as King. In the early access days, there were discussions between '''RobotGamer__''' and '''karatoss''' (the leader of Louisiana) over the potential of creating a Kingdom of America, which Louisiana would merge into. These plans never came to fruition, and the idea for a Kingdom of America was swiftly dropped after seeing the many nations being created across North America.

As a result, '''RobotGamer__''' began to focus on creating something more realistic: the Kingdom of Georgia. The claims of which would be based around the real life State of Georgia. A government for the nation has been fully established, with an entrenched Constitution that emphasises the superiority of the Senate in having the ability to amend the Constitution without the need for the King's approval. The Senate is to be made up of all Mayors of the nation, and vote on all laws and major decisions made. Progress towards forming the nation has been slow, but picked up dramatically towards the end of 2022.

=== Mid History ===

==== Revival ====
After a short period of inactivity from '''RobotGamer__''', lasting about 2 weeks, he decided to return and put a lot of energy into getting the town back on its feet again. '''Bliksemman''' proved to be a loyal resident who stuck around during this period of inactivity, and remained enthusiastic about helping out in the town. As a result, '''RobotGamer__''' appointed '''Bliksemman''' to the position of Co-Mayor, and he has proven a fantastic active Co-Mayor helping with town projects and recruitment.

==== Rapid Recruitment ====
Mayor of Atlanta, '''RobotGamer__''', began recruiting heavily in November, 2022. Town activity prior to November had been very poor, so '''RobotGamer__''' decided to get more active and ramp up recruitment. Between November 17, 2022 and December 27, 2022 he managed to recruit over 60 new residents. This made Atlanta one of the largest towns in the continent.

'''Reformation of the [[United States]]'''

Atlanta proved a loyal member of the United States nation (previously named Louisiana), and when US leadership became inactive, RobotGamer__ spent two months negotiating to attempt to become the new nation leader. While RobotGamer__ was unsucceful in taking leadership, they did come to an agreement in the form of the '''[https://wiki.earthmc.net/wiki/United_States#:~:text=be%20found%20below.-,Reformation%20of%20the%20United%20States%20Treaty,Louisiana%E2%80%9D)%20had%20does%20not%20apply%20to%20the%20new%20%E2%80%9CUnited%20States%E2%80%9D%20nation.,-Constitution%20of%20the Reformation of the United States Treaty]''' which agreed that the nation would rename back to Louisiana, allowing RobotGamer__ to create a new United States nation. To this date, the United States has proven to be one of the most democratic nations in Aurora - having the most laws than any other nation. Atlanta has always been one of the largest in North America, and currently stands near the 100 resident mark.

=== Recent History ===
Thanks to the hard work and dedication of loyal Atlanta resident, Prince MakRouss, Atlanta rapidly increased its population during the summer of 2023. During this period Atlanta became the largest town in Aurora, reaching over 300 residents. Emperor and Mayor RobotGamer__ recognises MakRouss for his part in recruitment and awarded him the Medal of Freedom. He was also given a special mention during a speech given by the Emperor at the event celebrating Atlanta's 300 residents.

All residents have the opportunity to have a vote on laws and decisions if they rank up to become a member of the House of Representatives. The city ''Mayor'' is '''RobotGamer__''' alongside ''Co-Mayor'' '''Bliksemman'''.

== History ==

=== Early History ===

==== Town Creation ====
Atlanta was founded by '''RobotGamer__''' on May 3, 2022 just 2 days after the early access release of Terra Aurora. Some early residents include '''Bliksemman''', '''gebalat''' and '''MartialFelix'''.

The town joined the nation of Louisiana, which later became known as the United States.

==== Early Plans (May 2022) ====
'''RobotGamer__''' originally planned to create the Kingdom of America which would have a Constitutional Monarchy, with him as King. In the early access days, there were discussions between '''RobotGamer__''' and '''karatoss''' (the leader of Louisiana) over the potential of creating a Kingdom of America, which Louisiana would merge into. These plans never came to fruition, and the idea for a Kingdom of America was swiftly dropped after seeing the many nations being created across North America.

As a result, '''RobotGamer__''' began to focus on creating something more realistic: the Kingdom of Georgia. The claims of which would be based around the real life State of Georgia. A government for the nation has been fully established, with an entrenched Constitution that emphasises the superiority of the Senate in having the ability to amend the Constitution without the need for the King's approval. The Senate is to be made up of all Mayors of the nation, and vote on all laws and major decisions made. Progress towards forming the nation has been slow, but picked up dramatically towards the end of 2022.

=== Mid History ===

==== Revival ====
After a short period of inactivity from '''RobotGamer__''', lasting about 2 weeks, he decided to return and put a lot of energy into getting the town back on its feet again. '''Bliksemman''' proved to be a loyal resident who stuck around during this period of inactivity, and remained enthusiastic about helping out in the town. As a result, '''RobotGamer__''' appointed '''Bliksemman''' to the position of Co-Mayor, and he has proven a fantastic active Co-Mayor helping with town projects and recruitment.

==== Rapid Recruitment ====
Mayor of Atlanta, '''RobotGamer__''', began recruiting heavily in November, 2022. Town activity prior to November had been very poor, so '''RobotGamer__''' decided to get more active and ramp up recruitment. Between November 17, 2022 and December 27, 2022 he managed to recruit over 60 new residents. This made Atlanta one of the largest towns in the continent.

'''Reformation of the [[United States]]'''

Atlanta proved a loyal member of the United States nation (previously named Louisiana), and when US leadership became inactive, RobotGamer__ spent two months negotiating to attempt to become the new nation leader. While RobotGamer__ was unsucceful in taking leadership, they did come to an agreement in the form of the '''[https://wiki.earthmc.net/wiki/United_States#:~:text=be%20found%20below.-,Reformation%20of%20the%20United%20States%20Treaty,Louisiana%E2%80%9D)%20had%20does%20not%20apply%20to%20the%20new%20%E2%80%9CUnited%20States%E2%80%9D%20nation.,-Constitution%20of%20the Reformation of the United States Treaty]''' which agreed that the nation would rename back to Louisiana, allowing RobotGamer__ to create a new United States nation. To this date, the United States has proven to be one of the most democratic nations in Aurora - having the most laws than any other nation. Atlanta has always been one of the largest in North America, and currently stands near the 100 resident mark.

=== Recent History ===
Thanks to the hard work and dedication of loyal Atlanta resident, Prince MakRouss, Atlanta rapidly increased its population during the summer of 2023. During this period Atlanta became the largest town in Aurora, reaching over 300 residents. Emperor and Mayor RobotGamer__ recognises MakRouss for his part in recruitment and awarded him the Medal of Freedom. He was also given a special mention during a speech given by the Emperor at the event celebrating Atlanta's 300 residents.

== Overview ==
[[File:Flag of the Kingdom of America.png|thumb|Flag of the United States Empire|450x450px]]The United States is an Imperial Constitutional Democratic Republic led by Emperor RobotGamer__ I. The nation goes by two names, both the United States and the United States Empire. The capital city of the nation is [[Atlanta]] with a population count of over 300 as of the time of writing. The United States currently sits as the second largest nation in Aurora, amassing over 400 citizens.
[[File:Atlanta Town Spawn.png|none|thumb|700x700px|Capital city of the United States, Atlanta.]]

== Constitution of the United States (Empire) ==
This constitution, written by RobotGamer__, is for the in-game nation “United_States” whose official name is the “The United States Empire”, which may also be officially abbreviated to the “United States” or “US”. The Constitution must be followed by all citizens of the United States, including all members of Government. All towns in the United States must follow the Constitution.

=== ARTICLE I - The Senate ===

# All legislative powers shall be vested in the Senate with the President having the power to veto all and any legislation passed by the Senate.
# The Senate shall be made up of all Mayors of all towns in the United States.
# Senators have the power to propose and vote on decisions/laws affecting the United States in the form of bills.
# Every town in the United States has 1 seat, and thus 1 vote, in the Senate by default - filled by their Mayor. However, towns gain a second seat once they reach 25 residents. This continues, adding a seat for every 25 residents. For example, a town with 75 residents would have the default Mayor seat, and then an additional 3 seats.
## A Mayor can choose to fill his additional seat/s with another/other resident/s from his town. This is the preferred option.
## Alternatively, a Mayor can choose to leave his additional seat/s vacant, and simply cast his additional votes himself. This is the default option.
# For a bill to pass, it must receive a majority (50%+1) vote of approval in the Senate. Once passed the bill will be sent to the President for ratification. If a bill receives less than a majority, or it receives a tie, then it fails.
## Bills that have failed cannot be copy, pasted and then proposed again in the Senate until 30 days have passed from the time they failed. They may, however, be proposed again if they have been rewritten and undergone change/s.
## Bills that have been vetoed can be proposed again immediately through the process of a veto override. This requires a three quarters (¾) majority vote of approval in the Senate. If it fails then Part 5 (a) Article I of this Constitution applies.
# Upon receiving the President’s ratification, a bill becomes struck into law and shall be known as an act.
# It is the role of the President and his Executive to introduce all acts that have been ratified.
# The President may dissolve the Senate during a national emergency. A national emergency may only be called by the Senate with a two-thirds (⅔) majority.
# The Emperor and/or President may pass acts by Decree when the number of town Mayors is below 5.
# The Constitution may be amended with a two-thirds (⅔) majority vote in the Senate. Approval from the President is not required for Constitutional amendments.
# In the event there is evidence of the President breaking the law, the Senate may hold a vote to impeach him. If the vote reaches a three-quarters (¾) majority in favour of impeachment, the President shall be removed and a new Presidential election held.

=== ARTICLE II - The House of Representatives ===

# The House of Representatives shall be an advisory chamber to the Senate. This means Representatives may propose bills and if they receive a majority vote of approval in the House of Representatives, the bill then goes to the Senate for a final vote. If a majority of the Senate vote in approval, then the bill goes to the President to receive ratification.
# All Representatives and Deputy Representatives are members of the House of Representatives. They are appointed by the Emperor in accordance to their loyalty and service to the United States.
# A Representative and Deputy Representative may have their title removed by the Emperor if they have broken the law, or if a majority vote in the Senate instructs a removal. Representatives may vote on, and propose, laws, Deputy Representatives may only vote on laws and not propose any.

=== ARTICLE III - The Emperor and the President ===

# The Emperor shall hold the in-game rank of Nation Leader of the United State at all times.
# The Emperor shall be regarded as the head of state, and the President the head of government.
# The Emperor may assume the position of President during times when both the offices of President and Vice President are vacant.
# The Emperor may override vetoes and ratifications made by the President on bills passed by the Senate.
# The first Emperor of the United States shall be Emperor Robot the First, also known as RobotGamer__, who may pass on his imperial title whenever he wishes and to whomever he wishes, so long as they are in the House of Robot Imperial Family.
## Members of the House of Robot are chosen unilaterally by Emperor Robot I, and once in the House of Robot, you may never leave it unless you wish to leave, or with a unanimous vote in the Senate approving of the removal, making you almost permanently in line for the throne.
# The Emperor and President are responsible for holding votes in the Senate and House of Representatives. If a Senator or Representative wishes to put a bill up for vote, they must send the bill to the Emperor and/or President who must then place the bill up for vote. The Emperor and President are not allowed to refuse to put a bill up for vote.

=== ARTICLE IV - Presidential Elections ===

# The President shall be directly democratically elected every 90 days. It is the Emperor’s responsibility to ensure the election is held fairly via the United States discord (<nowiki>https://discord.gg/U5TDCtd4WN</nowiki>).
# Any citizen of the United States who has been a citizen for a minimum of 30 days may run for President.
## To apply to stand in the election, a citizen must have a running-mate who will be their Vice President if elected.
## A citizen may not stand as a candidate for President without also having a running-mate candidate for Vice President.
# All United States citizens who have been a citizen for a minimum of 14 days prior to the election have the right to vote for the President.
## Citizens who are currently wanted for breaking the law of the United States may not stand in the election. Only once they have served their punishment may they stand. See Part 4 (a), Article V and Part 5 (a), Article VII of this Constitution for how committing Treason and/or Blackmail affect this.
# The Presidential Election shall have two rounds. The first round shall see all candidates up for vote. The top two candidates with the most votes make it to the final round. In the final round citizens must vote a second time, but only voting for one of the two candidates. The candidate with the most votes wins the election and becomes President, along with their running-mate who becomes the Vice President, until the next election 90 days later. Citizens may only cast one vote in each round.
## In the event that any round ends in a tie, a further “run-off” round is held.
## If a run-off of the first round is a tie and there are more than two candidates, then the Emperor decides which final two candidates will reach the final round.
## If a run-off of the final round is a tie, then one of the candidates becomes the President for the first 45 days in the 90 day term, with the other candidate becoming his Vice President for that time. They then swap positions for the remaining 45 days. If the two candidates cannot agree amongst themselves what order they become President, then the Emperor may choose.
# In the event only one candidate stands for President, an election would thus not be possible meaning the Emperor may choose whether or not to assume the position of President himself, or let the candidate assume the position.

=== ARTICLE V - The Executive ===

# The Executive shall be made up of the President, Vice-President and their Cabinet. The President wields the power to create cabinet positions and department leaders to help execute the duties of the Executive.
# In the event the President resigns, becomes inactive for a period of 14 days without notification to the Senate, or is impeached, the Vice President is to assume his position as President.
# If there is evidence of the Emperor, President or any member of the Executive breaking the Constitution, the Senate may hold a vote on whether or not the official in question has breached the Constitution.
## If the vote receives a unanimous vote of approval, they are to be removed from their position and permanently banned from standing for President, Vice President and entering the Executive.
## If the vote is on the Emperor and unanimously passes, then the House of Representatives is to hold a vote along with a vote in the Executive where the President, Vice President and all their department leaders are to vote as well. If the House of Representatives and Executive also vote unanimously in favour of removal, the Emperor is to resign as Nation Leader and hand their position to the next in line to the throne.
## Officials who have been removed for breaching the Constitution are not allowed to be appointed, or elected, back into the Executive unless the Senate votes unanimously in favour of allowing them.
# Treason shall be defined as plotting or attempting to unconstitutionally seize power in any way that belongs to the Emperor, President and the Executive of the United States.
## Committing Treason shall be the highest crime a citizen can commit. Anyone found to have committed treason are to be permanently banned from holding a seat in the Senate, House of Representatives, becoming the Emperor, President, Vice President or any position in the Executive. This can only be reversed by a unanimous vote of approval in the Senate, House of Representatives and Executive.

=== ARTICLE VI - The Judiciary ===

# The Emperor is the supreme judicial authority in the United States who acts as the sole judge in court. As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor decides whether a citizen has or has not broken the law. The Emperor must use evidence to make his decision.
# The Emperor must act impartially in all court cases. Failure to act impartially would be in breach of this Constitution.
# The Emperor may decide what punishment to give a citizen that has been found to have committed a crime.
# As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor is responsible for upholding the constitution of the United States. They may decide when the constitution has been broken, and who is responsible for breaking it. The only exception to this is if the Emperor is suspected of breaching the Constitution, in which case Part 3 of Article IV of this Constitution applies.
# The Emperor may choose to physically hold a court session in the Atlanta High Court, or hold the session via a discord text channel. The Emperor must let the defendant have reasonable time to defend themselves. All court sessions must be publicly viewable by citizens of the United States.
# The Emperor may choose to not hold a court session at all for non-serious crimes which can be dealt with immediately.
# In the extreme event of a court case where there is no evidence for either side, the Emperor may issue a "Imperial Declaration of Belief".
## This requires the Senate to review the case, and give their opinions by vote, with a simple majority to finalise their decision. This should only ever be used as a last resort.
## The Imperial Declaration of Belief shall state which side the Emperor, and the Senate, believes has the most compelling argument. That side shall be declared the winner of the trial, unless future evidence is provided.
## If future evidence is provided, the trial shall be reheard, and the decision shall be based on the new evidence presented.
## The “Imperial Declaration of Belief” shall be final and binding, unless the case is reheard.

=== ARTICLE VII - Bill of Rights ===

# No citizen may kill a fellow citizen without their permission, unless it is in self defence.
# In no town may there be unsafe conditions where it is easy for a citizen to die. For example, an exposed pit where a citizen could fall to their death, or die in lava.
# In all towns of the United States, no plots may have PvP toggled without permission from the Emperor or President.
## Only once permission is granted may a plot have PvP toggled. It is required that PvP only be toggled for recreational purposes, meaning people engaging in PvP are doing so by consent.
# The people of the United States hold the following to be true: Any town located in North America should have the freedom to choose whether to be in the United States or not. We will not force any town to be in our nation against their will. We believe that all other nations should also allow towns a freedom of choice. No Mayor should feel intimidated or pressured into joining a nation they do not want to be a part of just because a nation proclaims their land to be a part of their claims. If a nation wants to focus on nearby towns, then that is fine. But at no point should a nation intimidate or force a town to join just because they are within 'borders'. It must always be down to the town's decision.
# Blackmail shall be defined as an act of forcing another person/s to act in an involuntary manner by the threat of revealing or publicising either true or false information about a person or people unless certain demands are met.
## It is an extreme offence to commit blackmail on one or more persons. Senators who commit this offence are to be temporarily suspended from the Senate for 3 weeks. If the President, Vice President or any member of the Executive is found to have committed blackmail, they are to be removed from office for 3 weeks.
## The person who has been found to be blackmailed may request compensation from the blackmailer. On a case-by-case basis the Emperor may decide the level of compensation the person blackmailed may receive, and whether it is reasonable they receive compensation at all.

# The Emperor shall be regarded as the head of state, and the President the head of government.
# The Emperor may assume the position of President during times when both the offices of President and Vice President are vacant.
# The Emperor may override vetoes and ratifications made by the President on bills passed by the Senate.
# The first Emperor of the United States shall be Emperor Robot the First, also known as RobotGamer__, who may pass on his imperial title whenever he wishes and to whomever he wishes, so long as they are in the House of Robot Imperial Family.
## Members of the House of Robot are chosen unilaterally by Emperor Robot I, and once in the House of Robot, you may never leave it unless you wish to leave, or with a unanimous vote in the Senate approving of the removal, making you almost permanently in line for the throne.
# The Emperor and President are responsible for holding votes in the Senate and House of Representatives. If a Senator or Representative wishes to put a bill up for vote, they must send the bill to the Emperor and/or President who must then place the bill up for vote. The Emperor and President are not allowed to refuse to put a bill up for vote.

=== ARTICLE IV - Presidential Elections ===

# The President shall be directly democratically elected every 90 days. It is the Emperor’s responsibility to ensure the election is held fairly via the United States discord (<nowiki>https://discord.gg/U5TDCtd4WN</nowiki>).
# Any citizen of the United States who has been a citizen for a minimum of 30 days may run for President.
## To apply to stand in the election, a citizen must have a running-mate who will be their Vice President if elected.
## A citizen may not stand as a candidate for President without also having a running-mate candidate for Vice President.
# All United States citizens who have been a citizen for a minimum of 14 days prior to the election have the right to vote for the President.
## Citizens who are currently wanted for breaking the law of the United States may not stand in the election. Only once they have served their punishment may they stand. See Part 4 (a), Article V and Part 5 (a), Article VII of this Constitution for how committing Treason and/or Blackmail affect this.
# The Presidential Election shall have two rounds. The first round shall see all candidates up for vote. The top two candidates with the most votes make it to the final round. In the final round citizens must vote a second time, but only voting for one of the two candidates. The candidate with the most votes wins the election and becomes President, along with their running-mate who becomes the Vice President, until the next election 90 days later. Citizens may only cast one vote in each round.
## In the event that any round ends in a tie, a further “run-off” round is held.
## If a run-off of the first round is a tie and there are more than two candidates, then the Emperor decides which final two candidates will reach the final round.
## If a run-off of the final round is a tie, then one of the candidates becomes the President for the first 45 days in the 90 day term, with the other candidate becoming his Vice President for that time. They then swap positions for the remaining 45 days. If the two candidates cannot agree amongst themselves what order they become President, then the Emperor may choose.
# In the event only one candidate stands for President, an election would thus not be possible meaning the Emperor may choose whether or not to assume the position of President himself, or let the candidate assume the position.

=== ARTICLE V - The Executive ===

# The Executive shall be made up of the President, Vice-President and their Cabinet. The President wields the power to create cabinet positions and department leaders to help execute the duties of the Executive.
# In the event the President resigns, becomes inactive for a period of 14 days without notification to the Senate, or is impeached, the Vice President is to assume his position as President.
# If there is evidence of the Emperor, President or any member of the Executive breaking the Constitution, the Senate may hold a vote on whether or not the official in question has breached the Constitution.
## If the vote receives a unanimous vote of approval, they are to be removed from their position and permanently banned from standing for President, Vice President and entering the Executive.
## If the vote is on the Emperor and unanimously passes, then the House of Representatives is to hold a vote along with a vote in the Executive where the President, Vice President and all their department leaders are to vote as well. If the House of Representatives and Executive also vote unanimously in favour of removal, the Emperor is to resign as Nation Leader and hand their position to the next in line to the throne.
## Officials who have been removed for breaching the Constitution are not allowed to be appointed, or elected, back into the Executive unless the Senate votes unanimously in favour of allowing them.
# Treason shall be defined as plotting or attempting to unconstitutionally seize power in any way that belongs to the Emperor, President and the Executive of the United States.
## Committing Treason shall be the highest crime a citizen can commit. Anyone found to have committed treason are to be permanently banned from holding a seat in the Senate, House of Representatives, becoming the Emperor, President, Vice President or any position in the Executive. This can only be reversed by a unanimous vote of approval in the Senate, House of Representatives and Executive.

=== ARTICLE VI - The Judiciary ===

# The Emperor is the supreme judicial authority in the United States who acts as the sole judge in court. As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor decides whether a citizen has or has not broken the law. The Emperor must use evidence to make his decision.
# The Emperor must act impartially in all court cases. Failure to act impartially would be in breach of this Constitution.
# The Emperor may decide what punishment to give a citizen that has been found to have committed a crime.
# As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor is responsible for upholding the constitution of the United States. They may decide when the constitution has been broken, and who is responsible for breaking it. The only exception to this is if the Emperor is suspected of breaching the Constitution, in which case Part 3 of Article IV of this Constitution applies.
# The Emperor may choose to physically hold a court session in the Atlanta High Court, or hold the session via a discord text channel. The Emperor must let the defendant have reasonable time to defend themselves. All court sessions must be publicly viewable by citizens of the United States.
# The Emperor may choose to not hold a court session at all for non-serious crimes which can be dealt with immediately.
# In the extreme event of a court case where there is no evidence for either side, the Emperor may issue a "Imperial Declaration of Belief".
## This requires the Senate to review the case, and give their opinions by vote, with a simple majority to finalise their decision. This should only ever be used as a last resort.
## The Imperial Declaration of Belief shall state which side the Emperor, and the Senate, believes has the most compelling argument. That side shall be declared the winner of the trial, unless future evidence is provided.
## If future evidence is provided, the trial shall be reheard, and the decision shall be based on the new evidence presented.
## The “Imperial Declaration of Belief” shall be final and binding, unless the case is reheard.

=== ARTICLE VII - Bill of Rights ===

# No citizen may kill a fellow citizen without their permission, unless it is in self defence.
# In no town may there be unsafe conditions where it is easy for a citizen to die. For example, an exposed pit where a citizen could fall to their death, or die in lava.
# In all towns of the United States, no plots may have PvP toggled without permission from the Emperor or President.
## Only once permission is granted may a plot have PvP toggled. It is required that PvP only be toggled for recreational purposes, meaning people engaging in PvP are doing so by consent.
# The people of the United States hold the following to be true: Any town located in North America should have the freedom to choose whether to be in the United States or not. We will not force any town to be in our nation against their will. We believe that all other nations should also allow towns a freedom of choice. No Mayor should feel intimidated or pressured into joining a nation they do not want to be a part of just because a nation proclaims their land to be a part of their claims. If a nation wants to focus on nearby towns, then that is fine. But at no point should a nation intimidate or force a town to join just because they are within 'borders'. It must always be down to the town's decision.
# Blackmail shall be defined as an act of forcing another person/s to act in an involuntary manner by the threat of revealing or publicising either true or false information about a person or people unless certain demands are met.
## It is an extreme offence to commit blackmail on one or more persons. Senators who commit this offence are to be temporarily suspended from the Senate for 3 weeks. If the President, Vice President or any member of the Executive is found to have committed blackmail, they are to be removed from office for 3 weeks.
## The person who has been found to be blackmailed may request compensation from the blackmailer. On a case-by-case basis the Emperor may decide the level of compensation the person blackmailed may receive, and whether it is reasonable they receive compensation at all.

{{DISPLAYTITLE:Atlanta (Aurora)}}
[[File:Atlanta Coat of Arms.png|thumb|Atlanta Seal]]
Atlanta is the capital city of the United States and a metropolitan city that is especially friendly to new players. Free food is delivered to Federal Mailboxes in every plot, and all residents have the opportunity to have a vote on laws and decisions if they rank up to become a member of the House of Representatives. The city ''Mayor'' is '''RobotGamer__''' alongside ''Co-Mayor'' '''Bliksemman'''.

== History ==

=== Early History ===

==== Town Creation ====
Atlanta was founded by '''RobotGamer__''' on May 3, 2022 just 2 days after the early access release of Terra Aurora. Some early residents include '''Bliksemman''', '''gebalat''' and '''MartialFelix'''.

The town joined the nation of Louisiana, which later became known as the United States.

==== Early Plans (May 2022) ====
'''RobotGamer__''' originally planned to create the Kingdom of America which would have a Constitutional Monarchy, with him as King. In the early access days, there were discussions between '''RobotGamer__''' and '''karatoss''' (the leader of Louisiana) over the potential of creating a Kingdom of America, which Louisiana would merge into. These plans never came to fruition, and the idea for a Kingdom of America was swiftly dropped after seeing the many nations being created across North America.

As a result, '''RobotGamer__''' began to focus on creating something more realistic: the Kingdom of Georgia. The claims of which would be based around the real life State of Georgia. A government for the nation has been fully established, with an entrenched Constitution that emphasises the superiority of the Senate in having the ability to amend the Constitution without the need for the King's approval. The Senate is to be made up of all Mayors of the nation, and vote on all laws and major decisions made. Progress towards forming the nation has been slow, but picked up dramatically towards the end of 2022.

=== Mid History ===

==== Revival ====
After a short period of inactivity from '''RobotGamer__''', lasting about 2 weeks, he decided to return and put a lot of energy into getting the town back on its feet again. '''Bliksemman''' proved to be a loyal resident who stuck around during this period of inactivity, and remained enthusiastic about helping out in the town. As a result, '''RobotGamer__''' appointed '''Bliksemman''' to the position of Co-Mayor, and he has proven a fantastic active Co-Mayor helping with town projects and recruitment.

==== Rapid Recruitment ====
Mayor of Atlanta, '''RobotGamer__''', began recruiting heavily in November, 2022. Town activity prior to November had been very poor, so '''RobotGamer__''' decided to get more active and ramp up recruitment. Between November 17, 2022 and December 27, 2022 he managed to recruit over 60 new residents. This made Atlanta one of the largest towns in the continent.

=== Recent History ===
'''Reformation of the [[United States]]'''

Atlanta proved a loyal member of the United States nation (previously named Louisiana), and when US leadership became inactive, RobotGamer__ spent two months negotiating to attempt to become the new nation leader. While RobotGamer__ was unsucceful in taking leadership, they did come to an agreement in the form of the '''[https://wiki.earthmc.net/wiki/United_States#:~:text=be%20found%20below.-,Reformation%20of%20the%20United%20States%20Treaty,Louisiana%E2%80%9D)%20had%20does%20not%20apply%20to%20the%20new%20%E2%80%9CUnited%20States%E2%80%9D%20nation.,-Constitution%20of%20the Reformation of the United States Treaty]''' which agreed that the nation would rename back to Louisiana, allowing RobotGamer__ to create a new United States nation. To this date, the United States has proven to be one of the most democratic nations in Aurora - having the most laws than any other nation. Atlanta has always been one of the largest in North America, and currently stands near the 100 resident mark.

506856499902021654: Constitution and Flag added

[[File:Flag of the Kingdom of America.png|thumb|Flag of the United States Empire]]

== Constitution of the United States (Empire) ==
This constitution, written by RobotGamer__, is for the in-game nation “United_States” whose official name is the “The United States Empire”, which may also be officially abbreviated to the “United States” or “US”.
The Constitution must be followed by all citizens of the United States, including all members of Government. All towns in the United States must follow the Constitution.

=== ARTICLE I - The Senate ===

# All legislative powers shall be vested in the Senate with the President having the power to veto all and any legislation passed by the Senate.
# The Senate shall be made up of all Mayors of all towns in the United States.
# Senators have the power to propose and vote on decisions/laws affecting the United States in the form of bills.
# Every town in the United States has 1 seat, and thus 1 vote, in the Senate by default - filled by their Mayor. However, towns gain a second seat once they reach 25 residents. This continues, adding a seat for every 25 residents. For example, a town with 75 residents would have the default Mayor seat, and then an additional 3 seats.
## A Mayor can choose to fill his additional seat/s with another/other resident/s from his town. This is the preferred option.
## Alternatively, a Mayor can choose to leave his additional seat/s vacant, and simply cast his additional votes himself. This is the default option.
# For a bill to pass, it must receive a majority (50%+1) vote of approval in the Senate. Once passed the bill will be sent to the President for ratification. If a bill receives less than a majority, or it receives a tie, then it fails.
## Bills that have failed cannot be copy, pasted and then proposed again in the Senate until 30 days have passed from the time they failed. They may, however, be proposed again if they have been rewritten and undergone change/s.
## Bills that have been vetoed can be proposed again immediately through the process of a veto override. This requires a three quarters (¾) majority vote of approval in the Senate. If it fails then Part 5 (a) Article I of this Constitution applies.
# Upon receiving the President’s ratification, a bill becomes struck into law and shall be known as an act.
# It is the role of the President and his Executive to introduce all acts that have been ratified.
# The President may dissolve the Senate during a national emergency. A national emergency may only be called by the Senate with a two-thirds (⅔) majority.
# The Emperor and/or President may pass acts by Decree when the number of town Mayors is below 5.
# The Constitution may be amended with a two-thirds (⅔) majority vote in the Senate. Approval from the President is not required for Constitutional amendments.
# In the event there is evidence of the President breaking the law, the Senate may hold a vote to impeach him. If the vote reaches a three-quarters (¾) majority in favour of impeachment, the President shall be removed and a new Presidential election held.

=== ARTICLE II - The House of Representatives ===

# The House of Representatives shall be an advisory chamber to the Senate. This means Representatives may propose bills and if they receive a majority vote of approval in the House of Representatives, the bill then goes to the Senate for a final vote. If a majority of the Senate vote in approval, then the bill goes to the President to receive ratification.
# All Representatives and Deputy Representatives are members of the House of Representatives. They are appointed by the Emperor in accordance to their loyalty and service to the United States.
# A Representative and Deputy Representative may have their title removed by the Emperor if they have broken the law, or if a majority vote in the Senate instructs a removal. Representatives may vote on, and propose, laws, Deputy Representatives may only vote on laws and not propose any.

=== ARTICLE III - The Emperor and the President ===

# The Emperor shall hold the in-game rank of Nation Leader of the United State at all times.
# The Emperor shall be regarded as the head of state, and the President the head of government.
# The Emperor may assume the position of President during times when both the offices of President and Vice President are vacant.
# The Emperor may override vetoes and ratifications made by the President on bills passed by the Senate.
# The first Emperor of the United States shall be Emperor Robot the First, also known as RobotGamer__, who may pass on his imperial title whenever he wishes and to whomever he wishes, so long as they are in the House of Robot Imperial Family.
## Members of the House of Robot are chosen unilaterally by Emperor Robot I, and once in the House of Robot, you may never leave it unless you wish to leave, or with a unanimous vote in the Senate approving of the removal, making you almost permanently in line for the throne.
# The Emperor and President are responsible for holding votes in the Senate and House of Representatives. If a Senator or Representative wishes to put a bill up for vote, they must send the bill to the Emperor and/or President who must then place the bill up for vote. The Emperor and President are not allowed to refuse to put a bill up for vote.

=== ARTICLE IV - Presidential Elections ===

# The President shall be directly democratically elected every 90 days. It is the Emperor’s responsibility to ensure the election is held fairly via the United States discord (<nowiki>https://discord.gg/U5TDCtd4WN</nowiki>).
# Any citizen of the United States who has been a citizen for a minimum of 30 days may run for President.
## To apply to stand in the election, a citizen must have a running-mate who will be their Vice President if elected.
## A citizen may not stand as a candidate for President without also having a running-mate candidate for Vice President.
# All United States citizens who have been a citizen for a minimum of 14 days prior to the election have the right to vote for the President.
## Citizens who are currently wanted for breaking the law of the United States may not stand in the election. Only once they have served their punishment may they stand. See Part 4 (a), Article V and Part 5 (a), Article VII of this Constitution for how committing Treason and/or Blackmail affect this.
# The Presidential Election shall have two rounds. The first round shall see all candidates up for vote. The top two candidates with the most votes make it to the final round. In the final round citizens must vote a second time, but only voting for one of the two candidates. The candidate with the most votes wins the election and becomes President, along with their running-mate who becomes the Vice President, until the next election 90 days later. Citizens may only cast one vote in each round.
## In the event that any round ends in a tie, a further “run-off” round is held.
## If a run-off of the first round is a tie and there are more than two candidates, then the Emperor decides which final two candidates will reach the final round.
## If a run-off of the final round is a tie, then one of the candidates becomes the President for the first 45 days in the 90 day term, with the other candidate becoming his Vice President for that time. They then swap positions for the remaining 45 days. If the two candidates cannot agree amongst themselves what order they become President, then the Emperor may choose.
# In the event only one candidate stands for President, an election would thus not be possible meaning the Emperor may choose whether or not to assume the position of President himself, or let the candidate assume the position.

=== ARTICLE V - The Executive ===

# The Executive shall be made up of the President, Vice-President and their Cabinet. The President wields the power to create cabinet positions and department leaders to help execute the duties of the Executive.
# In the event the President resigns, becomes inactive for a period of 14 days without notification to the Senate, or is impeached, the Vice President is to assume his position as President.
# If there is evidence of the Emperor, President or any member of the Executive breaking the Constitution, the Senate may hold a vote on whether or not the official in question has breached the Constitution.
## If the vote receives a unanimous vote of approval, they are to be removed from their position and permanently banned from standing for President, Vice President and entering the Executive.
## If the vote is on the Emperor and unanimously passes, then the House of Representatives is to hold a vote along with a vote in the Executive where the President, Vice President and all their department leaders are to vote as well. If the House of Representatives and Executive also vote unanimously in favour of removal, the Emperor is to resign as Nation Leader and hand their position to the next in line to the throne.
## Officials who have been removed for breaching the Constitution are not allowed to be appointed, or elected, back into the Executive unless the Senate votes unanimously in favour of allowing them.
# Treason shall be defined as plotting or attempting to unconstitutionally seize power in any way that belongs to the Emperor, President and the Executive of the United States.
## Committing Treason shall be the highest crime a citizen can commit. Anyone found to have committed treason are to be permanently banned from holding a seat in the Senate, House of Representatives, becoming the Emperor, President, Vice President or any position in the Executive. This can only be reversed by a unanimous vote of approval in the Senate, House of Representatives and Executive.

=== ARTICLE VI - The Judiciary ===

# The Emperor is the supreme judicial authority in the United States who acts as the sole judge in court. As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor decides whether a citizen has or has not broken the law. The Emperor must use evidence to make his decision.
# The Emperor must act impartially in all court cases. Failure to act impartially would be in breach of this Constitution.
# The Emperor may decide what punishment to give a citizen that has been found to have committed a crime.
# As the supreme judicial authority, the Emperor is responsible for upholding the constitution of the United States. They may decide when the constitution has been broken, and who is responsible for breaking it. The only exception to this is if the Emperor is suspected of breaching the Constitution, in which case Part 3 of Article IV of this Constitution applies.

# The Emperor may choose to not hold a court session at all for non-serious crimes which can be dealt with immediately.
# In the extreme event of a court case where there is no evidence for either side, the Emperor may issue a "Imperial Declaration of Belief".
## This requires the Senate to review the case, and give their opinions by vote, with a simple majority to finalise their decision. This should only ever be used as a last resort.

To this date, the United States has proven to be one of the most democratic nations in Aurora - having the most laws than any other nation. Atlanta has always been one of the largest in North America, and currently stands near the 100 resident mark.

[[File:Reformation of the United States Treaty.png|thumb|435x435px|Reformation of the United States Treaty]]
On the 22nd of February 2023 at 06:30PM GMT, RobotGamer__ created the (new) United States nation. This was following the signing of the Reformation of the United States Treaty, where King of the (former) United States nation, karatoss, agreed to rename his nation to Louisiana, allowing RobotGamer__ to create a new United States. The details of this treaty can be found below.

=== Reformation of the United States Treaty ===
Signed by karatoss and RobotGamer__ on the 22nd of February 2023:

# Upon the signing of this treaty, the nation which holds the name “United States” as of 16th February 2023 shall have its name restored to its original name “Louisiana”. The name “Louisiana” was the name which the nation was created with on 3rd May 2022.
# Upon the signing of this treaty, King karatoss and President betaking of what will be known once again as “Louisiana” agree for RobotGamer__ to create a new nation with the name “United States” with Atlanta as the capital.
# The former “United States” nation, which will now be known once again as “Louisiana”, will NOT transfer any of its diplomatic relations to the new United States. Instead, “Louisiana” retains all relations the former “United States” nation held.
## In essence, the new “United States” nation founded by RobotGamer__ will be a complete clean slate.
## This treaty is just to clarify that any wars, any alliances, any relations which the former “United States” nation (now “Louisiana”) had does not apply to the new “United States” nation.
