Freedom Isn't Free

Imperialized Democracy
28-01-2005, 16:47
As a major democratic nation of NationStates, the Free Republic of Imperialized Democracy demands a change. We ask those which share our values of liberty to join with us to democratize the world. Let every rogue state live in fear that they may be next. We will use any means necessary. Fear not, those who live in tyranny.

I am not a pure democracy. We are based off of the Roman goverment.
we have Trimonarchy of three Emperors, but we have three seperate
legislative bodies and 3 areas of judical leadership.all of the above bodies are elected exept the three leaders

Freedom costs a buck o' five...

Not only does it cost a buck o' five as Trey Parker and Matt Stone have explained, but it costs lots of money. The weapons we will need to undertake a movement this large is almost overwhelming, but if we build a Coalition of the Willing, we can succeed.

As one of the many Enlightened Despots ruling a nation-state, I believe that your idea of forcing literally everyone to vote is preposterous. Frankly, people have bizzaro ideas of what should & should not be legal, and my position is that of rational fail-safe against idiocy.

To the Imperial Democrats of the world: *Flips the bird*

I agree with the fact that freedom is not free anywhere...everyone does not have to be democratized...but i feel that something should be done where freedoms that can be the causes of most deaths, crimes, etc should be thought over and maybe tightened up a bit...but a democracy is not best for every nation.

The United Republics of Tiburon has been a strong supporter of freedom and democracy from time immemorial. Ever since its inception, the United Republics has campaigned for freedom, liberty, and the human rights that have come with it.

However, we do realize that implementation of ideals is unrealistic given the lack of democratization throughout the NationStates universe, and ask Imperialized Democracy to do the same. We must do what we can- ally ourselves with each other, force our hands into the dirty stream of tinpot dictatorships to find one minimally stained- and wait.

Though we sympathize with your position, ID, I am afraid Malkyer cannot help you. First of all, I would imagine that the King would be considered 'undemocratic.' Secondly, democracies are a minority in this world. We must tread carefully, or risk having our freedoms taken away by force. Even the Kingdom's own allies are not purely democratic. Of our five closest allies, I believe one is a true democracy.

In short, I sympathize, and even agree, with your ideals, though realistically they cannot be implemented. Until the balance tips, at least.
