Welcome to the Socialist Republic of Hydrovia. Below you will find our flag, Declaration of Independence and Preliminary Constitution.
DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
When, in the course of human events the Government is controlled by massive corporations and political ideals are persecuted, the People must deal with the situation. Sometimes this means separation from the Union and founding of a small island nation.
We, the camaraderie of the Socialist Republic of Hydrovia hold this truth to be self-evident. We believe this world needs a nation that can prove that socialist dictators are not always tyrants. A place where capitalism is in place but controlled so international corporations cannot decide who gets their products. We believe these corporations are the true tyrants.
To prove this, we now present this list of failures of the capitalist system and the “government” of the United States.
Previously, we have attempted to gather support to start a revolution. This did not work, so we are now breaking away from the Union.
Therefore, we proclaim this Republic to be an independent and sovereign nation. If you don’t like it, deal with it.

- Massive unemployment rates
- Infringements of second amendment rights by passing any and all “gun control” laws and regulations
- Failure to represent the People
- Piling on more debt
- Massive incompetence of “government” officials
- The “Patriot” act
Previously, we have attempted to gather support to start a revolution. This did not work, so we are now breaking away from the Union.

Armed invasions will be met with the sharp wit of bayonets.
Article 4: Succession and Removal from Power
The Grand Premier shall rule for a period of time that the People deem appropriate for the current GP, unless he or she wishes to resign before their term is up. Whether this be for life or 5 minutes, the GP cannot stop the People.
The Grand Premier shall be removed from power upon death or when the People deem it necessary.
The People have the right and duty to remove the Grand Premier from power if he or she becomes a tyrant and thus unfit to rule.
A new Grand Premier shall be elected when there is no current one.
Amendments:
1. No funny stuff for big companies.

3. Government positions cannot be purchased, only appointed or elected.
4. The Grand Premierial Hat is Grand Premierial and shall not be worn by anyone other than the Grand Premier without his or her consent. Anyone who does not obey this law is liable to be shot repeatedly with a paintball gun while in nothing but their undies, slapped with a raw steak, have lettuce thrown at them, chained to a wall and forced to eat a banana, or warned while being stared at. A roll of a solitary d6 will determine which.
5. All citizens have the right to practice any religion of their choosing so long as they don't bother me about it.
6. Rigging of votes is a crime and will get your citizenship permanently revoked. If you think you won't get elected for something, deal with it.
