[ERTH] Charter
We the members of QunSegh, in Order to form a more perfect Alliance, establish Justice, insure domestic Peace, provide for Sovereign defense, promote the general Goal, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves, do establish this Charter for the Descendants of Earth. �

Section 1 (Council) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


All decisive powers shall be vested in a council. The Council shall be composed of CEO�s, and a number of other representatives based on corp size. There shall also be chosen a Council Chairman. This chairman will oversee all meetings, and report all decisions to the High Council. He will also be granted the power to choose other CEO�s to assist with various projects. The Council Chairman shall be elected directly by all members of the alliance who wish to vote. This vote will occur once every 2months. No member of the council is to be granted any form of immunity and may be removed by a majority vote.

All Propositions must be voted on by all members of the council. Once the council has reached a 2/3rd majority vote the proposition may them be presented to the High Council so that it may be put into effect. The High Council reserves the right to veto any proposition that will adversely affect the entire alliance, however the High Council may be over ruled if the council comes to a complete 3/3rd vote.

Votes will take place at the beginning of each council meeting. A member of the High Council must be present at all votes to ensure a non adverse outcome.  A majority rule is divided as a 2/3rd vote among all representatives. A vote may take place so long as a minimum of 2/3rd of the council is present, however there still must be a 2/3rd vote based on total number of representatives. If there is not 2/3rd of the council present, or not a 2/3rd vote reached among members, the high council member present may retrieve the votes at a later time after replaying the meeting to the members not present. (In short real life often interferes with our ability to be on at specific times, but this should not interfere with all operations, so if you miss a meeting get with the High Council and they will have a record of the meeting as to which you can listen too and then cast your vote.) The results of a delayed vote will be given at the beginning of the next meeting, and if needed revote will take place at the end of the next meeting.

Section 2 (High Council) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The High Council In most aspects has no control over the decisive power within the alliance. Their power is limited mainly to the following areas.
