Preface
As this region grows, so will our citizen amount, and in order to make sure that only citizens whom nations reside within our region can participate in Wintreath activities, such as elections, and holding an office.
   
1. Title
    a. This shall be referred to as the Citizenship and Demonym act.

2.  Citizenship Concerns

b. To make sure all citizens are members of this region and have a nation that resides in it, there shall be a sweep of citizens to ensure they have a nation in our region, failing to have a nation in the region, that was signed up with, shall cause the citizenship to be revoked. This will happen every month, at least the end of the month.

c. This bill also grants the Monarch the ability to revoke citizenship, at any time, and is publicly stated, and they have the right to try their loss of citizenship at a hearing. Whether citizenship is taken away or not will be up to the Judge and the Monarch’s discretion.They will be given a week to state they are active, before it there citizenship is taken away.
   
d. Citizens whose citizenship taken away due to inactivity will be able to reapply for citizenship at any point after it is taken away, as long as they are not declared Persona non Grata in entering Wintreath.  with Personal non Grata shall be defined as any member, outside of Wintreath, deemed a threat by the King, Delegate, or Underhusen by a vote.

2. Demonym Act
     a. All Citizens shall also be officially referred to as Wintrians in any documents, in order to prevent confusion on the term that should be used. This term shall also be used in legal documents when referring to the citizens as a collective whole.

3. Compliance with previous law.
    a. Upon passing of the Legislature, and in accordance with Decree 001: Section 6, Decree 001 shall be considered Void.

I don't like the demonym (Wintreans would be more appropriate, no?), there are bits of the formatting that I don't like (missing caps in places, awkwardly worded). But it'll do, I guess.

Aye.

I'm going to vote nay on this one.

And I'm gonna break the tie and say Nay.

The Citizenship and Demonym Act has been defeated in the Overhusen 2-1. The Underhusen may now reintroduce the act for the purposes of creating an amended version or for the purposes of overriding this veto if it so desires. Until a new Citizenship Act is passed, Wintreath will continue to operate according to Decree 001 of the former Provisional Government.
