Many years ago when I was in college I was quite good at C+ and later Visual Basic. As a teen I was quite adept at Batch (MS-DOS) programming. I've also worked at times in website development back when you had to know HTML and CSS. These days, I could code if I so chose to, but I have other things to do :-)

I may not be grasping the entirety of the proposal here, but I fail to see how the Senate is less democratic than the Cosa, as senators are actually elected by the people, whereas MC's are on a party list but don't actually run for election in their own right. Perhaps if we want to fix an imbalance, MC's should run for their seats instead.

Is the intent of MC Autofil to eventually convert the Senate into more of a UK style House of Lords? Why is our current setup a problem?

Ahem, what church is he head of? What faith is he defending?

Head of the church is not part of my title. As for "defender of the faith" that bit I think of like this: I defend all the various faiths of all the citizens of Talossa, not some specific state-sanctioned version. I personally am Roman Catholic, but I've never felt that my faith is superior or inferior to any other (or lack thereof). We are free to worship as we please, and I as sovereign, am the defender of that right.

I am a "back-up' admin for the sake of continuity and making sure someone always has access. I feel it is not my place to approve posts in general.

I would think that as you are the SVA, and the SKA is not as active, you might be the best contact for the Coletx.

I don't think I would be the appropriate contact for the Royal College of Arms any longer (plus it lists me as I once was known before I ascended the throne).

Interesting. And I also find it interesting how the prime minister actively responds to others hahahah. Thank you

Just as a point of protocol, typically discussions within the Coletx are among members. I'm sure the Squirrel Viceroy won't object too loudly, but just keep the norms we operate under in mind S:reu Malt.

Some years back I received this award for helping my wife, Queen Chelli, immigrate. More recently I was instrumental in helping my brother Pol immigrate as well.

I would love for us to do more stuff like this, including some form of medal for members of the Orders of Chivalry, though that can wait.

I think the main thing I want to preserve is making sure that anything the provinces do or ask myself or a Cunstaval to proclaim is organic. Perhaps those sections can be reworded to that purpose? I just don't want the provinces to face Cort battles if something goes awry.

The Cunstavál Reform Amendment

Whereas the role of Cunstaval is decades out of date and mostly out of use, and yet there is a place for His Majesty in every province, and

Whereas the provinces are probably best-equipped to decide what the role might be, and

Whereas the limit on cross-provincial power seems unnecessary at this point, since we don't know what provinces will want to be doing,

THEREFORE the fourth section of the ninth article of the Organic Law, which currently reads

Quote1. Every royal power that the King possesses as granted by this Organic Law shall also apply to the provincial governments; with the exception that the provincial royal powers need not include a right of dissolution if provincial elections are held concurrently with Cosâ elections.

2. The King may appoint a Cunstavál (or Constable) for any Province to exercise these powers on his behalf, for a term not exceeding three years. The King may reappoint a Cunstavál. The terms of existing Cunstaváis shall expire no later than three years after the adoption of this amendment.

3. Until such time as the King or Cunstavál proclaims a provincial constitution providing otherwise, the King or Cunstavál shall serve as Military Governor and may exercise all the powers of the provincial government.

4. The King or Cunstavál shall not proclaim any provincial constitution, nor shall any province pass a constitutional amendment, which conflicts with any provision of this Organic Law or with any other national law.

5. The King or Cunstavál shall not proclaim any provincial constitution which has not been approved by a referendum in which at least either a majority of all citizens of the province or a two-thirds majority of votes actually cast is in favor of the constitution.

6. No person shall be at the same time Cunstavál of one province and the leader of the provincial government of another province.

shall be amended to read

Quote1. Every royal power that the King possesses as granted by this Organic Law shall also apply in a commensurate fashion to the provincial governments.

2. The King may appoint a Cunstaval (or Constable) for any Province to exercise these powers on his behalf.  A province may pass laws setting a term of office for its Cunstaval, specifying who is disqualified from the role, and assigning the Cunstaval a role in their government.  Unless otherwise fixed by national or provincial statute, the term of office shall be three years.  No person shall be at the same time Cunstaval of one province and the leader of the provincial government of another province.

Frankly, if we simply deleted sections 3, 4, and 5 it would achieve what I believe both the Seneschal and the MC are looking for. My preference is to simply delete the provision about military governors and adjust section 2 to remove the last sentence.

I don't see the harm in keeping the sections regarding new constitutions and keeping things organic.
