This Document is meant to set out the structure, rights and regulations of Sparta. All member nations of Sparta agree to the set rules and regulations presented in this charter.
[edit] II. The Principles of Sparta
The underlying principles of Sparta and all Spartans is our loyalty to one another, and above all, our alliance.

Through unity, we will never falter, through strength we will never fall!

[edit] IV. Spartan Government
[edit] Kings of Sparta
The Kings are the supreme leaders of Sparta, able to direct our alliance anywhere they desire. Their powers and duties are numerous, and include, but are not limited to:
- Only the Kings of Sparta may issue a declaration of war on a foreign alliance.
- The Kings of Sparta shall remain King until either one resigns. If such an event occurs, a successor shall be named by said King.
- The Kings can veto any decision passed by the Senate.
- The Kings have the power to suspend or expel a nation from Sparta without the permission of the Senate.
- Only the Kings may authorize the use of nuclear warheads.
[edit] Removal
If the Ephors feel a King is not acting in the best interests of Sparta, a vote can be cast in the Gerousia. If a 75% majority decides a King unfit to continue his Kingship then the Ephors and former King will make a joint decision for a replacement.
[edit] Ephors of Sparta
Effectively the Kings' right hand men within the alliance, the Ephors are the designated heads of each department within Sparta. The Ephor Departments are as follows:
- Foreign Affairs
- Defense
- Internal Affairs
- Economy
For appointments, the Kings will nominate an Ephor to a specific Government Department. Should the Senate start a debate about an Ephor department and disapprove with a 75% +1 majority, the Kings will nominate a new Ephor.
[edit] Ephor Succession
If an Ephor is not able to do their job for a certain period of time, the Kings may replace said Ephor without notification.
[edit] Deputy Ephors of Sparta
- Deputy Ephors are assistants to the Ephors. Each Ephor may appoint their Deputy with the Kings approval.
- Deputies have the same mask as Ephors, but report to Ephors for duties and responsibilities.
[edit] The Spartan Senate
The Senate is the voice of the people within Sparta. All member nations of Sparta may vote for up to 3 candidates in the elections which are held on the first day every two months.
- There are 8 Senators.
- Senior government is not eligible to run for the Senate.
- Senators are assigned as Liaisons into departments in multiples of two. Each Senators background history and specialities will determine where each Liaison goes. If it's left undecided for more than 5 days after each elections, the Ephor of Internal Affairs will decide for them
- Should a tie exist between the Senators, the Kings will be the tiebreaker.
[edit] Predetermined duties of the Senate:
- Ratify new treaties proposed by Kings in peacetime.
- Listen to suggestions, comments and concerns of general Spartan membership.
[edit] Senator Removal
- A Senator can be removed if both Kings or a 75% majority of the Senators agree. A 48 hour nomination and election period will be held if such an event occurs.
[edit] Punishment Hearings
- It is the job of the Senate to decide punishment of Spartans who break Spartan laws.
- These hearings will be heard in the public area of the Senate for all Spartans to see.
- The Senate is the Judge and the Jury of the trial.
- The Kings and Ephor of Internal Affairs can overturn any punishment decision if urgent situations require actions or the punishment is deemed detrimental to the alliance as a whole.
[edit] V. Spartan Law
The rules of Sparta must be adhered to at all times in order to uphold her honour and integrity. Failure to abide by these very simple rules will result in severe ramifications against the perpetrator. Betrayal or embarrassment of Sparta is never an option.
- While military prowess is of course encouraged within Sparta, no member nation may attack nations without prior consent from a commanding military officer.
- Being a member of another alliance while in Sparta is strictly prohibited.
- Nuclear Weapons may only be launched with approval by either of the Kings.
- No member of Sparta may conduct espionage on any Alliance or pass classified intelligence to any Alliance or third party.
- The use of in-game spies without prior approval from either a King or Ephor of Defense is prohibited.

[edit] Spartan Newspapers
Sparta currently has two alliance-wide newspapers.
- The Valinorian Weekly run by Lord Manwe Sulimo.
- The Supreme Lord Sentinel run by supremelord
[edit] The Valinorian Weekly
The Valinorian Weekly is Sparta's oldest newspaper. It is a fake newspaper supposedly written by an Elven journalist that resides in Valinor. The areas and characters mentioned in the articles are based on those written by J.R.R. Tolkien either in The Silmarillion or The Lord of the Rings. Lord Manwe Sulimo uses it to brag about his nation.
[edit] The Supreme Lord Sentinel
The Supreme Lord Sentinel concerns more of Sparta as a whole than just focusing on one nation. While its primary purpose is a propoganda tool for SupremeLord and Sparta, recently it has also focused on issues that the people want to read about, such as an alleged vote stuffing scandal. It features interviews and editorial comments, and is also the only Spartan Newspaper to be officially linked with Classy Comics.
