Founded in March of 2007, A World Power was once one of the largest regions in Nationstates, and is currently re-building to its former glory! We as a region hold no specific political ideology, but nations organise themselves into Great Houses of likeminded individuals. The leaders of the three largest Houses form a Triumvirate which is responsible for leading the region. We believe in open elections for all citizens of our region and operate a one of the major defender forces in the game, which protects regions across Nationstates from invasion.

Compulsion in a game is a pet peeve of mine...

As some people may be gone for a week etc. and this can cause problems...

well, the reason I threw it in there is that it guaranteed a result. I just didn't want someone to opt out of voting. Especially since its solving a tie thats passed through 2 elections and the senate, and we still have a deadlock. Thats why I threw the compolsary vote in there. Also note, I never set a time limit on that vote, I just don't want something that's gone so far to not get resolved.

And also note, that requirement only applies to Part 4.A) of the bill, and does not apply in Part 2 or 3.
