The Constitution of the Independent Federal Republic of the Arstotzkan Union is the supreme legal document that governs the rights, powers, and duties of the people, government, and institutions within the Arstotzkan Union. Drafted between 22 November 2019 and 25 November 2022, it was ratified on 25 November 2022, and came into effect three years prior. The constitution establishes the Arstotzkan Union as a completely sovereign and independent state, encompassing all claimed lands and territories under its united republic.
The Arstotzkan Union is a democratic socialist federal presidential constitutional republic, founded on the principles of Arstotzkanism. The constitution reflects the nation's commitment to creating a more perfect union, free from international tyranny and injustice, while promoting democracy, socialism, and the well-being of its people. It draws inspiration from the mission of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and aims to spread global socialism for the freedom of the proletariat.
The constitution guarantees a comprehensive set of rights and freedoms to the people of the Arstotzkan Union. These include freedom of life, liberty, happiness, humanity, and property. Additionally, individuals enjoy freedom of speech, assembly, religion, press, expression, privacy, sexual orientation, gender identity, sexual expression, and same-sex activities. The borders of the nation are open to all, and anyone born within its territory is granted automatic citizenship.
The Arstotzkan Federal Government, composed of three equal branches - executive, legislative, and judiciary - holds the power to pass, create, and repeal legislation. State federalism is implemented to govern the territories of the Arstotzkan Union, while the House of Representatives, elected by states and territories, serves as the supreme authority over them. The constitution emphasizes the protection of human rights and the prohibition of discrimination, ensuring that no individual shall lose their inalienable rights under any circumstance.
The constitution also highlights the duty of the federal government to defend, protect, and sustain the rights of its citizens from foreign threats or radical governments. It guarantees the right to a fair trial, the abolition of slavery, and the protection of women's rights, including the right to a safe and protected abortion. Furthermore, it denounces neo-fascism, neo-Nazism, and hateful ideologies that may lead to acts of terrorism.
The members of the federal government, including the presidents and vice president, are elected through free and fair elections. They are entrusted with upholding the constitution and the principles of Arstotzkanism, working for the unity and equality of the nation. The constitution grants the Office of the Presidency the power to pass, change, or edit the constitution in response to evolving circumstances within the Arstotzkan Union.
In summary, the Constitution of the Independent Federal Republic of the Arstotzkan Union serves as a symbol of the nation's commitment to democracy, socialism, and the well-being of its people. It establishes a system of government that aims to protect and uphold the rights and freedoms of all individuals within the Arstotzkan Union while striving for a more just and equitable society.
