This new region was intended as a home specifically for nations of a libertarian socialist/anarcho-communist persuassion who felt their beliefs were not being represented by any other Nation States region. For a long time the region consisted of just six nations, mainly from Anarchy: [[Workers Communes]], [[Free Eutopia]], [[Autonomous Peers]], [[Industrial Pirates]], [[Autonomous Freedom]] (the first UN [[delegate]], who was later replaced by the current delegate Workers Communes) and Free Anarcho-Communes. It was during these early, turbulent days however that the original founding aims and principles of the Alliance were established over a serious of heated disscussions and before long the number of members joining the Anarcho Communist Aliance began to increase day by day.

History

The Anarcho Communist Alliance was originally founded by The Anarchist Federation of Workers Communes, a former member of both The Proletariat Coalition and Anarchy regions. This new region was intended as a home specifically for nations of a libertarian socialist/anarcho-communist persuassion who felt their beliefs were not being represented by any other Nation States region. For a long time the region consisted of just six nations, mainly from Anarchy: Workers Communes, Free Eutopia, Autonomous Peers, Industrial Pirates, Autonomous Freedom (the first UN delegate, who was later replaced by the current delegate Workers Communes) and Free Anarcho-Communes. It was during these early, turbulent days however that the original founding aims and principles of the Alliance were established over a serious of heated disscussions and before long the number of members joining the Anarcho Communist Aliance began to increase day by day.

Today we number over fifty nations from all over the Nation States world and can boast a very active regional forum and even a regional map, thanks to the enthusiasm and creativity of our members. At the time of writing we remain the largest and possibly the only region dedicated soley to the principles of anarchist communism.

Founding Aims and Principles

1. To obtain democratic workers' control over the means of production via communal ownership and decision-making.

2.To achieve the highest standard of living possible given the resources available whilst respecting the eco-system which supports us.

3. To achieve an equitable distribution of wealth based on each person's ability and the work they are able to do.

4. To achieve direct democracy whereby everyone has the opportunity to have a say in the decisions which will affect them.

5. To achieve absolute freedom of speech, assembly, movement, press, criticism, worship etc.

6. To eradicate prejudice and discrimination on the grounds of class origin, sex, sexuality, race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, political belief, age or disability etc.

7. To defend human rights and the right of each individual to do whatever makes them happy as long as this does not prevent others from doing likewise.

8. To support scientific research into areas which have the potential to help us or our environment and to celebrate diversity and innovation in the fields of art, music, literature, architechture etc.

9. To avoid all violent conflict which is not in self-defence or the voluntary defence of others who would call on us for aid in times of hardship.

10. To promote libertarian socialism internationally and support the revolutionary proletariat of the world!
