It shows the breakdown of the denominations and how it adds up (i.e. how many percent of the Mordusian population is Hosian, and then how many percent of the Mordusian population is Luthorian or Bishopal). I think it might have been the spacing that formed the confusion, but this should be easily clarified by placing a few dash lines that it's a Hosian denomination of which can be done on another proposal that will be displayed in the nation page. I do not see any other reason why it cannot be considered for approval. If you may, please find time to review the passed bill and the other bills shown on the nation page. Thank you.

A new UPDATED, PASSED, and CLEAR Cultural Protocol Bill for Mordusia

For the third time jamescfm has proposed a cultural protocol on Solentia. This time it has passed, (previously one was archived and one was deleted after the party disbanded). I object to it for various reasons.
Lack of activity from the proposing party - The Bright Future party has been refounded on several occasions. In terms of party legislation it has proposed very little legislation, focusing its efforts on Cultural Protocols and constitutional amendments. Likewise on the forum the only post in the Solentia newspaper was to complain after it had been disbanded and I RP'd its leaders had been arrested. The fact the party has no visibilities despite having been active in Solentia several times in the last few decadeds speaks volumes.
Game Rules - The games rules state - "Proposals for new Cultural Protocols in Culturally Open nations must have the support (voting "yes") of one party that has been continuously active (i.e. no inactivations) within the respective nation for 7 days". When Bright Future refounded the first bill they proposed was an early election motion in May 5472, it is now May 5474. So the passed Cultural Protocol was definitely passed within seven days of Bright Future becoming active again. I believe this rule has not been met.
Previous Attempts at RP/Cultural protocols Game Rules Section 7 Rules 5 and 6 state;
5. Cultural Protocols should generally be reflective of RP conducted within the nation and should not significantly alter or modify the ethnic, religious or linguistic composition without considerable and reasonable role-play or other justification;
6. Cultural Protocols cannot directly contravene long-standing or historically significant role-play or cultural groups within a nation. Cultural Protocols are meant to enhance the cultural and role-play experience within a nation;
Not only has Bright Future not contributed any RP to Solentia, but its passed Cultural Protocol goes against the spirit of both 5 and 6. Although Solentia is a cultural open nation and has been a largely inactive country for most of the last 500 game years, with either one party rule or no party activity, efforts have been made to RP.
During this time I have played in the country for a number of years and have attempted to build up some activity, RP and developed the historical background, with significant inputs to the game (legislation, RP bills etc (http://classic.particracy.net/viewparty ... tyid=43950)), the wiki (Zophiel 20 - https://particracy.fandom.com/wiki/Sole ... on=history) and the forum newspaper (most posts from here - viewtopic.php?f=17&t=7182&start=730#p178189).
I had invested a fair amount of time in Solentia, and sought to develop the nation and its culture. Draft protocols were put forward on two occasions http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill. ... lid=675359 and http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill. ... lid=681795 after I had played and RP’d for a period of time. Unfortunately the second set were not accepted by the Mods (viewtopic.php?f=11&t=8606&start=1710#p187701).
Summary. Years ago the the Cultural Protocol rules were designed to stop nation raiding, or a party turning up and implementing CP without any contribution to the development of RP. It would appear those rules are no longer in effect. If there had been any effort by jamescfm to RP in Solentia then I could understand the attempt at pushing a CP. But there has been none.
