The Lacrista Constitution

The Divine Queen of the Lacrista Empire and her respected Council of Advisors swear to always serve and protect citizens of Lacrista to their full extent and always exercise rightful laws and justice at the right time. Lacrista will always try its best to minimize pollution, protect the environment, run a fair and smooth government, keep its citizens happy, and stay honest and trustworthy. These are its goals and responsibilities.

The Queen has absolute rule, but gets advice and opinions from her Council of Advisors, six men each representing the interests of his respective state. It is through these Advisors that the Queen knows what her citizens worries are and what they would like out of their government. The Queen does everything with advice from her council. She and the council must follow this Constitution, and obey Lacrista’s laws as well as make them. The Queen will also have Complaint Sessions four times a month in her palace to listen to each attending citizen’s complaints, ideas, and advice personally.

Citizens are allowed the following freedoms:
· Freedom of Speech
· Freedom of Religion
· Freedom of Press
· Freedom of Mind
· Freedom of Property
If a citizen abuses these freedoms and takes advantage of them, they will be taken away and justice will be executed. Lacrista encourages citizens to use their freedoms to help make Lacrista and their communities better, and to raise awareness to world conflicts.
The Queen is allowed the following freedoms:
· All citizen freedoms
· Freedom of Ruling
The Queen mustn’t take advantage of power and corrupt herself and nation, and must always rule fairly. If Queen has turn corrupted and all Advisors agree and give reason, the nation has the right to strip the throne from the present Queen and give to either a family member of the former queen, present queen, or another family related to the queen. Advisors themselves cannot become king or queen, they must stay Advisors and serve present Queen. Citizens cannot become Queen unless married into royal family.

Laws
1. To gain citizenship, one must live and work in Lacrista for three years and maintain a good record during that time, one must be somewhat fluent and literate in Crista, the Lacrista Empire's main language, and have a good background of life before you came to Lacrista.
2. Littering is illigal. Those caught littering will be fined 60 Criis or serve 15 days in the Lacrista Prison. Citizens, tourists, and immigrants are expected to help keep Lacrista clean.
3. Lacrista must try and use electricity in every aspect of the country's life in such a way that minimal pollution is produced, and the way the electricity is made doesn't cause pollution (example: water dams, wind mills). The main transportation in Lacrista will be electric bullet trains.
4. Lacrista will be made up of six states: Lasta, Crya, Crala, Larit, Lacra, and Caryln. Each state will be responsible for peacefully picking their own Advisor to participate in the Queen's Council of Advisors and represent their respective state. The Queen and Council reside in Larina City, the capitol.
5. Lacrista will have a limited population due to the fact it is an island nation. It can only support so many. Family's can have up to 4 children. Lacrista also oesn't want overpopulation of homeless and abandoned animals/pets. You can have up to three pets.
6. All citizens get free healthcare as long as they continue to pay their taxes.
7. Lacrista expects its youth to get a full and complete education. Schools across Lacrista will teach the laws of the Constitution and how to be a good citizen, ensuring each citizens understand his or her rights. The levels of education are:
- Elementary: PreK through Grade 6
- Primary: Grades 7 through 9
- Secondary: Grades 10 through 12
- University: Career choice.
The highest education level you can achieve is a University Sage Degree.
8. No exotic or endangered species as pets without Queen's knowing and permit.
9. You have to be 18 years to have a working license. You have to be 18 to vote. Note: citizens can not vote on anything political except the choosing of their Advisor. To drink, you have to be 21 years old. If you abuse drinking rights, they can be taken away from you.
10. Until Queen dies or is unfit to rule, she has the throne.
11. Majority of taxes will go to Scientific research, health care, education, environment preservation, buildings, and military.
12. There won’t be many cars in Lacrista since the whole country will be using bullet trains (There won’t be many roads, they take up space. Again, Lacrista is an island). But if you really want a car, 18 is the age to test for license, and only Hybrid cars are allowed; gas will be extremely hard to find since everything's electric.
