Pirate Party of Thaecia (PPT) [OLD]


Overview


The Pirate Party of Thaecia (PPT) is a catch-all centrist political party based on Pirate Politics, but adapted to Thaecia's political system. The main beliefs of the party are:

Home Affairs

  1. Direct Democracy: Citizens should be guaranteed the right to vote on important issues, such as the creation of a regional military, the expansion of the Thaecian Parliament, amendments to the constitution and etc.

  2. Freedom of Speech: The Pirate Party of Thaecia believes in absolute freedom of speech, so long as it doesen't violate any of NationStates' rules. We will always oppose any laws or amendments to the constitution which infringe on this right.

  3. Pro Immigration: We believe that any type of immigration is beneficial to regions as a whole in NationStates, as new people help making our region larger, improving activity and allow for more interaction.

  4. Party Recognition: As the region will grow larger, we believe that eventually, a requirement of minimal membership should be placed in order to get a party recognized as official. However, our party is still opposed to any caps on the number of recognized political parties.

  5. Support for Unicameralism: The Pirate Party believes that the current system of bicameralism present in Thaecia is inefficient, as it ends up dividing representatives in an already small congress (this way generating less debate and forcing more active members to debate more due to inactivity in the chambers), it also delays bills, and requires for the chambers to constantly "bounce" amendments and bills from one side to another due to one MP/Senator having an idea previously not thought about in the other chamber.


Diplomatic Affairs

  1. Anti Interventionism: We believe that Thaecia should stay completely out of any inter-regional military alliances (both raiding and defending organizations), as we believe they will only cause harm to our diplomatic relations.

  2. Moderate Military Approach: The Pirate Party of Thaecia supports the establishment of a small, defender led military. However, we ultimately believe this issue should be decided through a referendum.

  3. Ambassadorial Corps: We support the upkeep and maintence of an active and experienced Ambassadorial Corps, which works with the Foreign Affairs Ministry to promote better relations between Thaecia and it's embassy regions.


Entertainment and Roleplay Affairs

  1. Non-Intervention in Roleplay: The Pirate Party of Thaecia believes that the government should generally not intervene on internal Roleplay policy, and believes that the Roleplay Minister, along with a roleplay staff selected by the minister, should manage internal Roleplay policies.

  2. Roleplay-Style: As a part of our direct democracy policy, we believe that the Roleplay Minister should organize polls for roleplayers about the style of RP that Thaecia should follow.

  3. Regional Events: The Pirate Party of Thaecia supports the establishment of monthly events organized by the Entertainment Minister, in order to promote regional activity.


Justice Affairs

  1. Anti Copyright Laws: The Pirate Party of Thaecia opposes any attempts to establish copyright laws in Thaecia (Eg: Copyright laws for party logos or government owned institutions).

  2. Regional Transparency: We strongly support the establishment of anti-corruption legislation at the start of the Region's Development, and believe it should be one of the parliament's main focuses.
