What is the purpose of article I-5? It just seems to be a header without a body.

Article I-5 is an article that we will further discuss. Basiclly its the AUs symbols, capital, and flag. We need to decide where the capital is going to be, and what the flag will look like. I'm suggesting a flag similiar to the RL EU. Blue background and four stars (more stars will be added later.) Also I feel that we need to fully inigrate our militaries together into one. Like take our best weapons and equipment and then we decide which equipment and weapons we are going to keep and then we as a whole will build a powerful military.

"I don't agree with a single AU military. I would prefer it if each nation kept its own military, but agreed to protect each other if the AU comes under fire. Or maybe we could go the same way as Pax Imperium, and contribute some forces to a single military without having the entire thing made into a single one."

Alright, we can figure out how many soldiers we will commit to the AU Defense Forces. I am interested in AU Battlegroups, like what the EU has. Like we have separate control of our various naval forces but they travel with the warships of other AU nations. Basiclly multinational fleets patroling the AU waters. Kinda like a first line of defense. I'll agree with the you on the single AU military. But it never hurt ask. We can also act as peacekeepers. Here's my design of the AU flag.

Wheresoever will sign

I feel that a single military would also cause too many problems given the differing natures of our nations. A join co-operative force however is an excellent idea as well as an officer exchange program so that we can learn from the strengths of our various armies.

Canada will sign the constitution. Alright as of this moment, the Ardan Union is created. This summit is closed and I will create a Council of the Ardan Union in the Treaty's area, so we can elect a Prime Minister and begin our first orders of business.

OOC: sorry for the spam, but don't you think Elu should be in this as well? He does take up half of Arda, and he told me he plans to come back to RP soon.

"Once art to me was something far off, unfathomable and unreachable... But I discovered that the real essence of art was not something high up and far off, it was right inside my ordinary daily self. If a musician wants to be a fine artist, he must first become a finer person. A work of art is the expression of a person's whole personality, sensibility, and ability." -Shinichi Suzuki

yeah I sent him a message asking him if he wanted to join, but he never sent me a message back. I actually want all the Ardan nations in this union and if Elu wants to join he can send me a message and since I was just recently nominated as the Prime Minister of the AU, I will bring it before the Council and we will vote.
