Germanitas Imperious Crucis (English: The Brotherhood of the Imperial Cross) is a micronation founded over a period of months from September–November of 2008. It borders the US State of Colorado and subiqently the United States of America. The nation lays claim to approxamatly 9.7 Square Miles of Territory including but not limited to the Cherry Creek State Park and Lake/Reservoir and much of the GDP is generated from selling of water rights to the cities of Aurora Centenial and Denver. Thanks to an agreement with the U.S. Government the Reservoir is maintained by the US Army Corps of Engineers.

Rank System of Nations within Germanitas Imperious Crucis

Ritter Brudern

Ritter Brudern (Brother Knights): Is a rank granted only to the 3 founding nations of Germanitas. They hold Veto powers in all matters and decision of the Ritter Brudern is final and law. Many of the dealings of the Ritter Brudern are kept secret from all members except those directly involved in decision making. In perticular the Ritter Bruderns decisions in matters which may or maynot result in the expulsion of a member are often kept completely secret unless the verdict is expulsion even the rumor of a trial will not be brought to the light of day.

Halb Brudern

Halb Brudern (Half Brothers): Are the enforcers of Germanitas they enforce laws created by the Ritter Brudern and are elected for terms of 20 years or the leader's death, which ever comes first. They are given a group of Mit Brudern oversee and ensure they follow all laws of Germanitas and to enforce punishment on those who do not follow the law.

Mit Brudern

Mit Brudern (Lay Knights): Are the lowest ranking full members of Germanitas who agree to follow all laws laided out by the order, they are also they only group to exersise rights to elect the members of the Halb Brudern court from amongst their ranks. They are expected to follow their elected members in the letter of all things but also enforce electoral rules, including term limits. I.E. No nation may hold the rank of Halb Brudern more than twice in a row. and No nation may be elected after two terms until a period of 30 years has passed.

Vassals

Vassals are not full members of Germanitas, their territory is not counted among that of the whole and they are expected only to follow the most basic of laws. They do not enjoy mutual protection from other nations outside Germanitas but do enjoy that protection from member nations. Vassals usually have little more than a few economic ties to Germanitas.
