Relinquish Skarsind

Revision as of 11:45, 7 September 2015

With true pride the Winterfolk have resolved to relinquish our claim on the territory of Skarskind.

We take this courageous step out of loyalty to the Empire, and in particular the citizens of the Imperial Orc nation.

It is our ambition that Skarskind should become the first home for the Imperial Orc nation, such that they may find Prosperity.

This may be vetoed by the Wintermark National Assembly in addition to the normal processes

Proposed by Sermersuaq, seconded by Skarsind.

This motion would renounce the Wintermark claim to the territory of Skarsind
As Skarsind is still part of the Empire, it would allow for a new motion of assignment to be called.
This motion has significant constitutional ramifications.
It motion requires ratification by The Throne, and has no legal basis until then.
This motion was passed unanimously by the Senate.

The Imperial Orcs in particular welcomed this motion

If the motion is ratified, the territory of Skarsind would no longer be part of Wintermark.
Once relinquished, the territory will be assigned to a new Imperial nation following a standard vote of assignment by the Imperial Senate.
The Brilliant Shore is a national Bourse position, control will remain with Wintermark until the territory is assigned to a new Imperial nation.

The Constitutional Court acknowledge that this motion represents the true will of the Wintermark people due to the unanimous support of the senators of that nation and the right of the Wintermark Asembly to veto it.
This motion may be abrogated by the Senate at any time before it's ratification
This motion may be vetoed by the Assembly of the Nine, the General Assembly or - as specified - the Wintermark National Assembly; the Synod has until the start of the first senate session at the Summer Solstice to apply this veto.
As this is a constitutional matter, the motion would not count against the one veto allowed each summit.
