Discussion/War Room
Hello and welcome to the first Director meeting of the new country! The current leaders of your individual states will be the Directors. For example, Peru's president Fernando Salazar is now Director Salazar of Peru. Here is where we plan the Confederation's yearly turn. It will present an overview of what we as states have done in the last year and how it affected the country.

Constitution of the Confederation of Latin America
We the sovereign nations Brazil, Venezuela, Peru, and Chile relinquish our sovereignty to form the Confederation of Latin America. This will be a country that is powerful, modernized/industrialized, and one that protects its people in every way that the government can.

Article 1 : The relationship of our countries will become a centralized, organized, and just government under the leadership of 4 people.

Article 2: We will have three branches of government: Executive, judicial, and legislative

Article 3: The Executive Branch will be headed by 4 Directors, elected from each state(country) and will become the face of the nation.

Article 4: The Judicial Branch will be identical to the US's Judicial system

Article 5: The Legislative Branch will be comprised of 100 elected representatives from each state(country) and has veto power

Article 6: To make a decision as a nation, at least 3 Directors must be in agreement; The House of Reps can overturn the decision if there is not support from the people.

Article 7: Each State will remain autonomous(you will still be able to make your turn), however in terms of international decisions and other things, we will act as the NATION

Article 8: A state cannot secede from the Confederation unless ratified by the Directors UNANIMOUSLY (excluding the Director from the seceding state) NOTE: Secession must be for a just cause and cannot be taken lightly.

Signatories: '''Venezuela approves of the Constitution, and signs the charter. Ianian58 02:54, April 18, 2012 (UTC)'''

'''Brazil approves. RandomWriterGuy 05:22, April 18, 2012 (UTC)'''

Peru, of course, signs AwesomePeruvian 05:54, April 18, 2012 (UTC)

Chile sign the constitution --Katholico 06:44, April 18, 2012 (UTC)

Amendments to the Constitution:

'''Amendment #1: To accept a nation as a state of the Confederation, they must apply and their application will be reviewed for two years(we'll observe their actions as well). After two years, the Directors will vote to accept or deny the application. After acceptance, the nation must sign the constitution immediately. '''

Proposed Plans for the Years
As a literally nation formed by other nations, which is a confederation of nations, we still have autonomy. Yet we gain benefits. Now Venezuelan Ships can stay place in Brazilian territories. Peru and Chile can build great roads with Brazilian manufactures to travel easier from the mountains of the nations. Industries can use the great resources of the Amazons and all the four nations for better living. We are a force to be reckoned with. We still have our own proper control of what our area does, and when at war, and in war we shall have our own forces, yet, we will be united. A single Latin American Nations is a nuisance to a European power. Four natons of Latin America are a power to be feared. Ianian58 20:42, April 19, 2012 (UTC)

What we should do:

'''Raise the main army to one million men! (In total of all nations, Brazil with the larger population should be the main area to recruit troops.) '''

'''Improve literacy and roads in all the nations, especially hard-traveling areas in Chile and Peru. '''

'''Form a powerful navy. (Brazil and Venezuela having the largest navies should be the main force in that.) '''

'''Modernize the army and navy as time goes! (Chile, being historically one of the most advanced nations in Latin America, will take the lead in that.) '''

'''Improve trade of agriculture and mining! (Peru will take the lead in this, as a wealthy area for mining and agriculture, remember, South America alone is 1/4 of the main food producer of the world.) '''

For military matters, we need to keep an eye on the U.S, and deal with problem in Palenstine. What do you think? Ianian58 20:42, April 19, 2012 (UTC)

I agree with the initial plan. --Katholico 14:24, April 20, 2012 (UTC)

We should put in health too. RandomWriterGuy 15:31, April 20, 2012 (UTC)

Obviously. Ianian58 20:01, April 20, 2012 (UTC)

also Peru has a small yet beneficial oil industry in the north, also Venezuela is rich in oil.

'''Long-term goal: Unite the whole continent. AwesomePeruvian'''

'''i agree with watchng the US, they are imperialist and probably want to eventually take the Americas. However we will stand in their way to prevent that. For now, we should pursue good relations with them'''

Venezuela agrees with the additions of ideas added by it's fellow members. Ianian58 20:55, April 21, 2012 (UTC)

Portugal
'''Prior to the South American unification, Portugual and Brazil has entered a union. Fearing they will be neglected, Portugal wanted to leave the uion when Brazil agree to join the South American unification. The only way this can be prevented is to make sure a monarchy can be established. If not, Portugal will leave.'''

'''Due to their African possessions, Portugal is a vital asset and cannot be lost. '''

'''I agree, Portugal must stay with us. We should allow them to be autonomous, but will they be an actual part of the nation? I mean, its the Confederation of Latin America not the Confederation of Latin America and Portugal. That is the issue. But we definitelyy need to keep it in the Confederation. AwesomePeruvian'''

Portuguese Delegation: As we already said, we will relinquish claims on OTL Angola and Mozambique, which will remain part of the Directorate of Brazil.

Brazil: As I said before, we are trying to establish a monarchy to even up everything.

Vote of Confidence: Hispaniolan Republic
The Republic of Hispaniola has requested to join the Confederation, we will need to make an amendment to the Constitution regarding new members as well as take a vote of confidence to even consider them.

Venezuela: The Venezuelan Director and Representatives believe the Hispaniolan Republic should be considred as it itself is a nation of Latin America. We are attempting to unite Latin America, no? Yet, we believe we should not act so quickly to intergate a new member to the Federation so early, as we have no clear sight of their ambitions or goals. Ianian58 20:47, April 21, 2012 (UTC)

Brazil: We should.

Peru: We should make the application process 2 years in order to get a feel for how thsat country operates. During those two years all members should observe the country. After two years, we'll vote to accept or deny their application. AwesomePeruvian

Hispaniolan Republic: We asked if we were Elegible and while we appreciate the offer, we will need to know your Long Term Goals, and make decisions according to this. I ask for an alliance (prehaps becoming an Observer). As for my Long Term Goals (this is a heavy vote of trust in you, do not release this, not even to allies).''' If any other nation should read this please class as SECRET and therefore do not make use of this information. Please notify me when all members have read this so it can be Deleted.'''
