PRP FORMS AN ARMY!

Comrades of the Coalition --
In times of revolution and war it is the duty of the individual to take up arms to defend their home. While The Proletariat Coalition has long had an established corp of veteran defenders able to protect our region and assist our allies, many regions are not so lucky. The Pacific after struggling against chaos has come into a government of their own, and to prevent a hostile takeover, the Governors has established a people’s militia for the defence of The People’s Republic of The Pacific and their often dubious allies. However, it is the view of many, especially here in the Coalition, that The People’s Republic of The Pacific, formerly known as The New Pacific Order, led by the legendary tyrant Francos Spain, is one of the worst dictatorships to have ever walked the face of the NationStates universe given their constant elimination of all opposition, their illegal rise to power and refusal to clear the huge Pacific banlist. The People’s Republic of the Pacific is to some the biggest threat to democracy and to the Alliance Defense Network, it’s sworn ennemy.
While similar to many defence forces around the world, The Pacific’s is supposedly laced with checks and balances to prevent a tyrannical military rule. Ultimately war is only declared by the Senators, and troops can only be mobilized by their expressed consent. However, in times of peace regional Governors are allowed to train their troops and to hold war games. The Governors act as the leaders of each individual militia and are merely coordinated by the dictates of the Senate.
Contrasting the recent reformation of the ADN, is that troops are only used in “emergency defence” situations. However, it is specifically mentioned that the definition of defence may be debated by the Delegate and Senate. Furthermore this act would create an militia oversight committee, composed of civilians, to ensure a corruption free military structure. So we at the Voice of the Proletariat will be eagerly watching to see if these “democratic militias” will have the staying power of traditional defence Forces or if as critics have predicted, it will turn into a corp aimed at fighting the Alliance Defense Network and furthering their imperialistic views.
It should be noted that it is rather common knowledge that many PRP governors have actively participated in raider groups and that the PRP senate includes none other than Mammothistan, also known as New People, one of the leaders of the former Atlantic Alliance, that TPC has been in conflict with and widely acknowledged as the most effective raiding organisation so far in the NationStates world. With the gigantic resources the Pacific can offer, this People's Militia has great potential and may very well be a threat to the largest player-created region in the ADN, non other than The Proletariat Coalition itself!
Below is the text of the proposal as dictated by a PRP Senator.
The Assembly of Governmors has voted to proceed with the creation of a people's militia, for the protection of The Pacific and her allies. Below is the passed legislation.
Provincial Militias
Each province shall be required to create a militia. Each Provincial government will be required to maintain muster rolls. These rolls must be placed in the provincial forums and are to be updated as new members apply for the militia or old members leave.
It is the responsibility of each Provincial government to properly recruit and train the militia and keep them in a state of vigilance. Nations can only be recruited to the militias of their own provinces, with the following exceptions: Governors; Vice Goverors; Ministers of Mobilization. Any others must seek senate approval.
Governors may organise the militia any way they wish.
Governors are to command their militia during peacetime, when wargaming is encouraged. However, they will relinquish command of their militia in the event of mobilization. During mobilization, Governors may be asked to maintain command and control functions, but direction will come from the Senate.
Senate Role Regarding the Militia
The Senate may mobilize the militia for the emergency defence of the Pacific and her allies, and may use the militia for the purpose of counter-attack to repel an enemy’s invasion. What constitutes an emergency is to be debated by the Delegate and Senate.
The senator of Internal Affairs will create an oversight commitee, consisting of a number of civilians, to ensure that the militias are free of corruption and abuse.
In Peace and Solidarity,
