Constitution of Heen

Preamble:

The Kingdom of Heen must uphold and represent justice, honesty, and equality in all matters whether with foreign politics or internal affairs. The people of the kingdom constitute the rights to the freedom of speech, religion, to bear arms, and impeach an unjust council member(s).

Amendments:

Amendment I: The people in all right have the choice to annoint their monarch and Arch Priest by election of the nobility of eligible canidates. The monarch from there will appoint the High Marshal of the armies, and the Royal Treasurer of financial matters.

Amendment II: All monarchs must sign the Constitution of Heen before being fully annointed as King or Queen of Heen. The monarch of Heen has right to propose and ratify amendments when seen fit.

Amendment III: The nobility is consented to be governed and not governed by force. Any noble has the right to leave the kingdom at any time he or she wishes, but should the noble leave to an enemy realm, he or she is subject to banishment under the decision of the Arch Priest. The nobility is also subject to banishment by the Arch Priest if found guilty of any crime deserving of the punishment.

Amendment IV: The nobility has right to freedom of speech. Whether they do so by press or by parchment, they have all rights to speak their will. Should what is said be considered treason against the throne, that noble is subject to immediate banishment and if captured again execution.

Amendment V: The people of the kingdom have right to bear arms at all times to take defence against enemy rogues and enemy realms.

Amendment VI: The nobility has the right to disagree with, protest, and impeach any unjust council member should they have the proof to do so. Any unjust inpeachments will be justified by the currently ruling monarch or the monarch is subject to immediate impeachment.

Amendment VII: An offical religion must never be impressed upon the people. A monarch attempting to do so breeds corruption and is subject to immediate impeachment.

Amendment VIII: Hedonism is an evil religion and is never permitted to be preached or practiced in the Kingdom of Heen.
