Hello! I'm experimenting with a "commonwealth" sort of thing that works in a similar way to New Canada or the St. Charlian Commonwealth. Usually nations get a say in our Parliament, 75% of Parliament will be occupied by Grunkian politicians, and 25% of Parliament will be occupied by 2 representives from each of the constituent nations. However, the Commonwealth is sort of like a country itself, as it has its own legislature, Congress. Congress has the power to decide whether to declare war or not, if Grunkia declares war on a nation, it has the power to decide whether the government takes 10% of the taxes, or 50% of the taxes, etc. and it has the power to join organizations (e.g. GUM, UM). Foreign affairs are generally managed by the Grunkian Foreign Ministry, as if you want to open relations with a certain constituent nation, then you must have signed a Treaty of Mutual Recognition with Grunkia, then you may sign an alliance or whatever kind of relations you are interested in with the specific constituent nation. And, if a specific constituent nation wishes to declare war on a nation that Grunkia has not declared war on, the leader of that constituent nation may declare war with the President's (my approval) approval. So if anyone wants to join, you may join, just say it here on the forums, and give it a Kudo!
