Founded on the 17th of March

The International Industrial Trade Union is a continuance of the Union of Militaristic and Industrial Nations. Seeing that there were several major flaws in the organization of the UMIN it has been dismantled and remade with most of its major flaws dealt with.

New Military Policy

This is a very simple part of the I.I.T.U. It is the accumulation of military arms from all member nations. There are six laws to the legal accumulation of arms in the I.I.T.U. Military conduct, and declaration of war.

-Law 1-

All member nations must donate a portion of their military force of arms to the I.I.T.U. It will be an undetermined number since the situations in each individual nation change. If at all possible, 3-5% would be greatly appreciated. But the standard will not be set. It will be the nations governmental option how much it will give to the I.I.T.U.

-Law 2-

The member nations retain control of their armies in the I.I.T.U. unless the Union is in a conflict. In which case a Supreme Commander will be chosen to lead the armies of the Union into battle. After said war is over the member nations again take control of their respective militaries in the Union.

-Law 3-

The Union will choose a new private contracter from the industrial sector a randomly chosen nation to provide aircraft for the Union. If the country declines the responsibility a trial will be held in the I.I.T.U. to decide the necessary punishment for refusing to aide the Union. Unless it is found that the country in question could not have possibly met the demanded quota, in which case said country will be aquitted of breaking Union Laws.

-Law 4-

The military of the International Industrial Trade Union will follow all international laws retaining to the conduct of war. Also the I.I.T.U. will not possess a nuclear arsenal of its own, or a biological/chemical weapons arsenal. It will not however regulate the useage of Nuclear/bio-chemical weapons with its member nations. This is the job of the NS United Nations.

-Law 5-

As with the Union Air Force; a private contractor will be randomly chosen to provide ships for the Navy of the I.I.T.U. (see Law 3 for further details.)

-Law 6-

No member nation of the I.I.T.U. may start a general conflict with another nation that may affect the internal workings of the I.I.T.U. If such a conflict is unavoidable then a General Assembly will be held to provide a unamimous declaration of war. In which case the provided militaries of each nation to the I.I.T.U. will be mobilized and a course of action will be decided by a military advisory committee, the military advisory committee will also be responsible for picking the candidates for the Supreme Commmander.

-Bilaw 1-

If a nation withdraws from the I.I.T.U. they have the right to withdraw their armed forces as well.

-Law 1-

All member nations of the I.I.T.U. must donate 5-10% of there military force of arms. (May be changed depending on the situation of the country,or the needs of the Union.)

Thats like, a lot.

-Law 2-

The member nations retain control of their armies in the I.I.T.U. unless the Union is in a conflict. In which case a Supreme Commander will be chosen to lead the armies of the Union into battle. After said war is over the member nations again take control of their respective militaries in the Union.

Not really fair...

-Law 3-

The Union will choose a new private contracter from the industrial sector a randomly chosen nation to provide aircraft for the Union. If the country declines the responsibility a trial will be held in the I.I.T.U. to decide the necessary punishment for refusing to aide the Union. Unless it is found that the country in question could not have possibly met the demanded quota, in which case said country will be aquitted of breaking Union Laws.

A punishment? Thats harsh and unnecessary.

-Law 4-

The military of the International Industrial Trade Union will follow all international laws retaining to the conduct of war. Also the I.I.T.U. will not possess a nuclear arsenal of its own, or a biological/chemical weapons arsenal. It will not however regulate the useage of Nuclear/bio-chemical weapons with its member nations. This is the job of the NS United Nations.

Sounds fair enough.

-Law 5-

As with the Union Air Force; a private contractor will be randomly chosen to provide ships for the Navy of the I.I.T.U. (see Law 3 for further details.)

Same as law 3

-Law 6-

No member nation of the I.I.T.U. may start a general conflict with another nation that may affect the internal workings of the I.I.T.U. If such a conflict is unavoidable then a General Assembly will be held to provide a unamimous declaration of war. In which case the provided militaries of each nation to the I.I.T.U. will be mobilized and a course of action will be decided by a military advisory committee, the military advisory committee will also be responsible for picking the candidates for the Supreme Commmander.

Sounds fair.

-Bilaw 1-

If a nation withdraws from the I.I.T.U. they have the right to withdraw their armed forces as well.


Same as above

IN the defence of Laws 1,2,and 3

Law 1

5-10% is a lot , I agree with that. But the fact of the matter is that the nation still retains almost normal control over its military in the Union. Unless in the case of... (and it is subject to change depending on each individual nation, I believe I mentioned that.)

Law 2

They have a say in who runs the Army of the I.I.T.U. afterwards they are given almost total control over their respective armies. So how is this not fair.

Law 3

It is not really a unnecessary, if they join the Union they know that they are responsible for certain things. And being a military contractor is one of these responsibilties. If they refuse, then they basicly lied to the Union. BUT as I said if it can be proven that it would have been impossible to meet the demands than it will all be dropped and forgotten.

List of all military hardware given to the International Industrial Trade Union:

200,000 men total

700 Type A Destroyer Tanks http://usera.imagecave.com/CaptainDeath/IITU/Leopard1_cfb_borden_1.jpg

560 SuperNova Class Troop Crawlers http://usera.imagecave.com/CaptainDeath/IITU/marder-001.jpg

180 A-19 Attack Helicopters from Infantry Division A http://usera.imagecave.com/CaptainDeath/IITU/Australian_Army_ARH_Tiger_front_view.jpg

200 Air lift Military Transports http://usera.imagecave.com/CaptainDeath/IITU/MH-47E_1.jpg

By Union Law I am not allowed to provide ships or an actual airforce to the Union unless I am chosen as a private contractor. But I think is a good start to the Union ground forces, wouldn't you say?

This is hardly 5-10% of my total military, but once others start chipping in I will finnish out my obligation to provide more military equipment to the Union.

I have no idea, i've only ever created 1 alliance and that sits neatly on the forum floorbed, however I wanna re-assert a few of TWSP's points, namely the 5-10% rule, that's a little extreme and it might put off returning or new members.

OOC:
Some of the alliances are laying dormant for now. One (GASN) is constantly watching the events of another (CA). One is a UN Alliance (UN DEFCON), although we are moving towards having a branch for a defensive pact but for members only.

So it's pritty much touch and go when it comes to stuff. It's a lil hard for me to keep in touch with everything thats going on, which is why it's good to know people in the alliances that you trust who will give you info.
