Party Flag

The All-Region Commonwealth Party (or simply the Commonwealth) is a political party in The Region That Has No Big Banks founded in April 2024 by Syrasia.

Put simply, Unitarian ideals are about strong, democratic government. Commonwealth rejects the notion of parliamentarian elitism, and believes that the true power of democracy lies with the people rather than any legislature. Every single member of NBB has the right to and deserves an equal say in the region's affairs.

Equally, NBB must not become a region of hyperbolic discussion on "working for the people" or that every election is the "crossroads" to a "new era". Talking in riddles is an easy way out of talking straight. Commonwealth can and will end this circus of hyperboles. We are the party that will work for the devolution of power from legislature directly to the people. Commonwealth is founded on the principle of being the party of the ordinary player; we are not a party which is of the political establishment. Commonwealth is perhaps the only party which has been truly formed from the bottom up, and is the only one which offers a democratic party structure.

The Constitution of Commonwealth is a governing set of rules by which the party operates.

FIRST SECRETARY

• Responsible for maintaining and growing the party

• Recognised as the head of the party and co-chair of party campaigns

• Able to select and recall the Chairman of the party in exceptional circumstances

• May raise the number of Councillors from three (3) to reflect party size

• No term limit is to be applied to the office of First Secretary
  

CHAIRMAN of the PARTY

• Serves as the Candidate for PM/DPM for the Party

• Recognised as the co-chair of party campaigns

• Recognised as the operational leader of the Party

• Elected from the three (3) Councillors by party members
  

COUNCIL of the PARTY

• Three (3) Councillors will serve on the Council of the Party

• Their terms will be defined by challenge elections; those wishing to be a Councillor must challenge a seat

• Recognised co-ordinators of party policy

• Aid the Chairman in selecting election candidates outside of the election the Chairman is running in
  

These are a broad range of ideals that Commonwealth generally holds about the status quo.

HOME POLICY

• Maintain and uphold the rights of NBB citizens

• Create a new Ministry of Roleplay, whose Minister is selected by the Governor, to both provide clarity on regional RP and to keep RP consistent by removing the coordination staff from regional politics

• Amend the Constitution to remove all barriers of entry to Parliament

• Consider tentatively a new layout for the NBB Discord server to cut down on the amount of channels

• Create a new merit system of banners, as seen similarly here, in a theme which reflects NBB's devotion to equality of citizens

• Update the regional banner and other regional graphics to not include any single or group of individuals in order to promote equality.

• Encourage more regional events outside general roleplay, such as films, videogames, and other events
  

FOREIGN POLICY

• Maintain the tenet of strong leadership in order to deter raiders

• Consider an independent review on embassy protocol to ensure it is up to standard

• Maintain the Sovereignty of the Region; not bending the knee to regions who dislike how we operate simply to keep an embassy open, and pre-empt them by closing the embassy ourselves

• Ensure that NBB does not join any more interregional pacts or unions outside of its current commitments to preserve regional sovereignty

• Support all viable means of recruitment and aid in the donations of stamps

• Continue the maintenance of the Embassy Thread of NBB
