       [IC Bill] Colonial and Imperialistic Expansion
       By: Columbia Confederates Date: August 28, 2015, 8:54 am
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       A bill to allow the establishment of colonies outside of the
       NCSA borders.
       Recognizing Each state's own sovereignty and right to own land
       inside the NCSA borders without contention.
       Realizing That colonial expansion is currently deemed illegal.
       Further Realizing That colonial expansion would allow some to
       gain an upper hand upon other states economically.
       Congress Hereby Mandates the following
       (1) The Expansion into territories, north and south, for
       economical and militaristic purposes.
       (2) The following regions will be allowed to be expanded into,
       by agreement with the Congress of the NCSA:
       (a) Cuba, West Indies, Bahamas
       (b) Philippine Islands
       (c) Australia
       (d) African Islands and Territories
       (e) Canadian Territories
       (f) Antarctica
       (g) Coastal South America and Mexico
       (3) A form must be filed by the state in Congress and approved
       in order to moderate colonial expansion, as to not inflict upon
       a state's rights and sovereignty, but as to avoid cruel
       domination over the lands, such forms shall follow as this.
       *We the people of ^enter state name here^, hereby decree the
       ownership of the ^Island or specific territory^ for ^economic,
       militaristic, multiple^ purposes. We shall comply to the laws of
       the state and comply to the colonial laws of the NCSA. We shall
       not wage war against fellow state's colonies, but rather work
       peacefully together in a league of friendship.*
       (4) All Expansions shall be within a 40,000 sq mile limit given
       how much land a state currently owns within the NCSA borders.
       (a) If a state owns less than the 64,040 sq mile limit
       within the border, they may have more than a 40,000 limit in
       order to make up for land due to land lock.
       (b) That all state's may only have a total land
       occupation limit of 104,040 sq miles.
       ((OOC: Now, just read through it, and actually take a second to
       think about it. I know there are lots of state's who are
       landlocked that can't expand any further that deserve another
       expansion to meet maximum capabilities. It would also be
       different for the RP, instead of constant war RPs we can have
       colonial RPs))

       OOC: Louis isn't actually a member of congress, sooo....
       IC: "This bill is a selfish bill. We all know why Columbia
       wanted to put it here! Why wouldn't they, after their own
       request was shot down? All these bills that they have been
       proposing are first for them, with the people as an
       afterthought. I will not support this bill. We do not need
       empires."

       OOC: And he is too, he registered.
       "I am not deliberately unopposed to expansion, we should limit
       colonial holdings, but we should try to welcome other Nations
       into our Confederacy."

       OOC:  Thanks for the clarification about my membership status,
       Caos.  Apologies about the email.  Thought I PM'd you.  Won't
       happen again.
       "We cannot judge a nation's actions before they happen.  To do
       so would be immoral, and in the case of some other nations,
       incredibly hypocritical."

       "Could we start off a little close to home say Canada and
       Mexico? Expanding globally seems to be a cheap ploy for Sparta
       to obtain slaves and traffick them across Columbia Confederate
       state lines!"

       "I don't understand why the Rep from DEN is at the neck of
       Columbia, always. This bill is beneficial to all, even your
       over-zealous military shenanigans. This is for nations that need
       better opportunity to boost economics or expand because of land
       lock! I want one good reason to oppose this bill besides that it
       will benefit Columbia! All bills are meant to benefit states,
       sir. Now give us one good reason not to support this. I hope you
       understand that this would benefit you and every state in this
       nation! It's clear that these people want an expansion but as
       long as Columbia could benefit, you want it shot down. You have
       attacked our sovereignty by waging a 'moral' war against slavery
       and you refuse to support any law or man from Columbia!"

       "While Frijstaat does not object to colonial expansion per se;
       we hope that nations will treat any indigenous populations
       fairly and equally and that this proposal not be a smoke screen
       for the exportation of tyranny and misery for economic gain."
