WORLD FACTBOOK ENTRY"Absolution...a little place of forgetting. A quiet region of contrast where no matter a states political views nor its history, all will be forgiven and then quietly forgotten." REGIONAL MAP of ABSOLUTIONTHE REGIONThe region of Absolution was founded by Assorro, a benevolent nation which serves as the head of the regional guard, a fiercely loyal and distinguished force comprised of citizen members of all nations. The region does not take part in raids or invasions and states boldly that they are no longer a region of conquest but rather a growing region of peace among contrasting nations, providing the proof that nations of socialism, communism, and democracy can and do coexist in peaceful, quiet resolution. Absolution has an open border policy and accepts all nations. In spite of size, political alignment, political history or duration that a nation has lived within the region, all nations are considered equal and granted the same inalienable right of equal consideration and representation. They are free to run their nations as they see fit without outside interference and no voice goes unheard. Their regional government, which any nation can be a part of, is democratic though individual nations are from both ends of the political spectrum. Nations registered with the regional forum are automatically granted the title of Minister and possess an eligible vote on all issues. They can propose new laws, propose amendments to existing laws, vote on UN resolutions, affect policy and vote in regional elections which are held four times a year. Any Minister can platform and run in elections but only UN ministers can be elected as delegates. Absolution holds a strict endorsement policy forbidding unsanctioned endorsement swapping and making it mandatory for all UN nations to endorse their legally elected delegate. Nations refusing to endorse the delegate are issued compliance orders and beyond that sent into temporary exile for failing to comply with regional law. This is not done out of a lack of kindness but to preserve their democratic process from being undermined. Delegates are elected by the region and as such, their position is protected by law. THE REGIONAL FLAGThe regional flag of Absolution is a valid symbol and stands as the testament of a region united. Used as a war badge before the time of the great peace that the region enjoys today. The flag has seen some of the most darkest days the region has ever known. The symbolism on the flag dates before the time of the founding nation and can be discovered through the folklore of the region. A dragon coiled sword sits predominately in the center, the keeper and guardian of the region. The rising sun in the top right corner and the descending moon in the bottom left represent the old credo of 'vigilant throughout our days and throughout our nights until death brings us no more'. Along with the regions name which sits boldly in the center are three Latin words, the language of ancient Rome: Venimus-Vidimus-Vicimus (We came-We saw-We conquered) Words spoken by Julius Caesar, a link to the days when the region was a Roman province. Any nation within Absolution these days may fly the regional banner, called Pax (peace). The founding nation of Assorro has adopted it not only as its regional emblem but as its national flag as well. It represents the peace enjoyed by all of its nations as well as the struggle it went through to obtain it. GOVERNMENT ROLES and RESPONSIBILITIESAbsolution is run as a real region. It has a functioning government and laws governing the actions of nations within the region. The government is found on the regional forum and all nations which register are automatically granted the title of minister within the government with an eligible vote on all issues. Only regional ministers can become elected officials but only regional UN ministers can become regional delegates. Regional member nations not registered with the government forum possess no political voice on the policies nor the issues within the region.
The government established within the region of Absolution is a Council of Nations which acts in a advisory capacity. It debates all regional issues including the constitution with each nation having an eligible vote. All positions within said government are elected positions. Starting with the delegate as chief official, followed by ambassadors, ministers, secretaries and reporters. Since the Council of Nations represents the political will of the region, the Founder can not, in good conscience, veto any bill unless sufficient grounds for argument be made by him and a second vote by council establishes support to his position.

REGIONAL LAWS of ABSOLUTIONREGION THREATENING Any nation entering into another region with the intention of threatening that region in the name of Absolution or otherwise shall result in permanent exile (ejection with ban) being imposed on them upon their return to Absolution. MOI's monitor the comings and going of all nations.
Any UN nation expressing a refusal to endorse the legally elected delegate by means of logging-on, finding a reminder notice telegrammed to them and then choosing to ignore it shall be issued with a 24 hour compliance order. Failure to comply with said order commencing from the time of their next log-on, will result in temporary exile (ejection without ban) being imposed upon that nation.
Any and all UN nations found illegally swapping endorsements or calling to members for endorsements shall have a 24 hour compliance order issued to them ordering said activity to cease and to return endorsement levels to their legal order.(See "Current Endorsement Orders") Failure to comply with this order, first offense, will be temporary exile (ejection without ban). Subsequent offenses will lead to permanent exile (ejection with ban). CURRENT ENDORSEMENT ORDERSThe following members are legally permitted to endorse one another.
These orders are expected to change with delegate elections and the growth of the region. No exceptions to these current orders will be allowed. THE REGIONAL GUARDThe Regional Guard is an imposing force within the region. Its General answers to no one but Karezon, the leader of Assorro and it's members are fiercely loyal to the region as a whole. Comprising of members from all nations, the Guard is considered to be a formidable fighting force all its own. Though it is used primarily today as a regional police force of sorts, exiling and banning nations from the region, it was once the largest, most decorated, revered and feared regiment that ever marched in the name of the region during the days of conquest. Their regimental museum, located in Assorro's capital city of Pytriet, tells the bloody tale of the unit from it's conception as a local militia soon after the fall of the Roman Empire, through the unifying of the region to modern day. Its battle honors remain fully unsurpassed. GYNTAV THE FIRSTWhen the Roman Empire collapsed, the region was thrown into chaos with each nation desperate to feed its citizens tribal war was a continuously looming fear and generation after generation knew very little else. Slaughter after slaughter, nations turned on one another to steal food and land, competing constantly for the position of the top ranking nation. Then came a man known simply as Gyntav. Gyntav was a massive, brutish and unsympathetic man which stood among men over two meters tall. He was the son of a Lord and had known war all of his life. He is thought to be the single most important and influential figure in the unifying history of the region. It was he that formed the local militia known today as the Regional Guard and it was he that sought alliance with his fellow neighbors. Those who opposed him, opposed the alliance and as it grew, the precious few that dared faced an army known for its ruthlessness, tenacity and horror. Gyntav's statue displays the man as death himself, never did he know failure and ruled the entire region until his dying day. It is important to remember that his conquest to unify the region was not done out of love but of greed. It was centuries before all nations were finally given equal consideration but since its unification, there has not been a single bloody conflict between the nations of Absolution.
