Chapter One: Ideology

Article 1: The Communist Allied Defense Organization (CADO) is a socialist, state of workers and peasants.

Article 2: The ideal economic ideology within CADO is the socialist system of economy and the socialist ownership of the implements and means of production firmly established as a result of the liquidation of the capitalist system of economy, the abolition of private property in the implements and means of production and the abolition of exploitation of workers.

Article 3: That being said, we recognize that every nation-state is different and has unique histories that contribute to different versions of pro-worker policies. So long as a nation-state is committed to better lives for workers through government intervention of the economy, that nation will be welcomed in CADO. Understanding that Nationstates issues sometimes have unexpected outcomes, nations will not be judged merely by their national rankings but also their national goals.

Article 6: Upon convening, the Supreme Soviet shall elect an Assembly Chairperson who will oversee the proceedings and ensure discussions stay on track.
