The Lesser Antilles Economic Community or LAEC is a multinational group open to all countries in the Lesser Antilles.

Stucture

Legislative Branch

The Lesser Antilles Security Council acts as the legislative branch of the LAEC. It is made up of respected nations of the Lesser Antilles and has the ablity to vote on what laws are passed in the region. These are given to the council as bills which, if passed, passes to the executive branch who enact the law.

Executive Branch

The United Island Empires, as founder of the Lesser Antilles, is charged with executing the laws passed by the security council. The power the founder hold allows UIE to do this job where other nations could not. The LADR, when active, can be called in to act as part of the executive branch.

Three Principles of the LAEC

The three principles of the Lesser Antilles are:

  • Wealth
  • Sovereignty
  • Regional Union

The United Nations

The Reason why the LAEC is against the United Nations is because they go against each of these principles. Bacause of this the LAEC is seperated from the United Nations, and no United Nations members are allowed in the Community. Under Lesser Antilles Security Council Bill 3, members of the United Nations may have observer status in community, but cannot take part in any of the community's projects.

Rules

When a country joins, it agrees to a few things, all designed to aid the economic power of the countries. They must:

  • Agree not to go to war with anyone else in the LAEC
  • Make sure all trade with other LAEC countries is free
  • Help, wherever possible, in making the Lesser Antilles more powerful
  • Aid other countries in the LAEC when they can
  • Not join the UN

Membership

Membership used to be opional to any member of the Lesser Antilles. But, due to popular demand, the memship is now compulsory for all members of the Lesser Antilles, so to unify the region.

Also, all LAEC members may join the Antilles Yent, a single currency that will make trade and movement between countries quick and easy. This will make the Lesser Antilles an even more powerful economic region.
