Republic of Fwuvoghor/Code of Fwuvoghor

THE CODE OF FWUVOGHOR

1. PURPOSE

   A. The Code defines the basic criminal laws of the Republic of Fwuvoghor. Other,
      lesser administrative laws are created by the House of Ministers and bound
      under the title of House Ordinances.

2. JURISDICTION

   A. These laws are the supreme criminal law within the Republic of Fwuvoghor.
      Where there is conflict between this Code and a Provincial law, the Code has 
      precedence.

   B. These laws apply uniformly to all citizens of any nation, within the Republic 
      of Fwuvoghor.

3. RIGHTS

   A. All people are inherently endowed with essential rights. These are, in order 
      of importance,

     1. the right to life, as this is the basis of our existance;

     2. the right to thought, because our beliefs define who we are;

     3. the right to property, so that which we earn shall remain our own; and

     4. the right to action, to pursue our lives as we please.

4. RESTRICTIONS

   A. The rights of an individual must not deny a more essential right of another 
      individual. Where the rights of two individuals overlap, the lesser right 
      becomes a priviledge, which must be specifically granted by the other individual 
      before it can be expected.

      1. Actions of an individual must be restricted

         A. within, or with regards to, the property of another,

         B. if it restricts the beliefs of another, or

         C. if it harms the life of another.

      2. No individual may become the property of another.

5. PENALTIES

   A. Those whose actions violate the rights of another, shall forfeit their own 
      rights, to the same degree.

      1. If you take the property of another, you will loose your own property.

      2. If you cause suffering in another, you will be subject to your own 
         suffering.

      3. If you take the life of another, you will loose your own life.

6. ENFORCEMENT

   A. The Republican Guard shall be entrusted to enforce these laws.

   B. Suspected Criminals shall be charged and prosecuted by the Grand Judiciary of 
      the Republic.
