Vita Genuit in Statera

When Mother Earth perished and the remaining population was forced to flee the planet, the people who boarded Potemotus headed towards the constellation of Aquarius to Gliese 581 in search of a new home. Within this system, they landed on planet C, otherwise known as Gliese 581c, which is the third planet from their star nearly 20 light years from Earth and has a tidally-locked status. This became the territory for the nation of Vita Genuit in Statera. This civilization refers to the human colony which inhabited the planet on Annus Novus 0, Novusdies, year 1 AH (May 9th, 2042), specifically on the small patch of territory along the Linea Divide which is the only location that could sustain human life with the aid of significant technological advancements. The people of Vita Genuit in Statera remained at a constant population of nearly 1000 people for the duration of their reign, yet despite this, made tremendous strides in technology, media, and warfare which is why the nation is considered an innovator of its time.

The first people landed in what became known as Novum Inceptum. This settlement was where humans first made contact with foreign soil and gradually, they would encounter the flora and fauna that thrived on the planet's harsh conditions. Their Geodesic Domes which were the structures they built to house their people. They were constructed alongside the banks of the Fluit Vita which flowed directly to Lacus Vitae Magna. Their settlements primarily extended along water sources and initially, they were limited to settle in areas within the protective mountain ranges. However, as their technology advanced, they were able to expand towards territories which extended further than Inclusum Cor which led them to have far-reaching outposts in the west and east such as Campis Ventosis and Orientem Agrum. Paths such as Pelagus Iter, Occidentis, and Viam Sinistram were crucial routes for traveling to the south, west, and east respectively. Collectively, they became the cornerstone for domestic trade and the industrial production of goods.

The nation of Vita Genuit in Statera was a trailblazer for intergalactic interactions and their achievements include the legitimization of the first official alliance known as The Syndicate Alliance; the initiation of the first intergalactic war against Azon of which Vita Genuit in Statera was victorious; the ratification of the first Peace Treaty with Azon after an illegal war was declared upon Vita Genuit in Statera; and the accelerated advancements of technologies such as Oxygen Technology and Biomining which were developed and published by the Department of Science and Energy. Furthermore, Vita Genuit in Statera was struck with three major disasters which includes the Widespread Famine, Economic Recession, and Refugee Crisis, all dire in circumstance and heavily documented by VGiS, Vita Genuit in Statera's public news reporting organization. The government was constantly under constant pressure to deliver a comprehensive, if sometimes controversial, response plan for dealing with each crisis.

During the Great HSB War, Vita Genuit in Statera was on the side of the Rebels, however, their true loyalty is still widely debated upon as there is significant evidence to suggest members within the government had been partnering with other nations who had a pro-HSB stance. When the Rebels lost the war, the democratic vote by the Allies resulted in the desired destruction of all Rebel nations, however, Operation Blazing Sun had yet to be enacted, but regardless, Vita Genuit in Statera had alleged ties with political leaders within Rosa Luna which meant they would remain unscathed if Operation Blazing Sun was ever commenced. All in all, Vita Genuit in Statera was a pioneer for a multitude of accomplishments and the evidence of this is truly extensive and spanning dozens upon dozens of pages worth of documents.

## Foundations

While the exact origins of Vita Genuit in Statera is still widely debated, it is recognized that there was an official ratification of the Constitution accompanied by an ancient myth that has been paramount to our understanding of the societal norms and culture of the civilization. Although historians agree that the formation of Vita Genuit in Statera predates the creation of the Constitution, the jury is still out on whether Vita Genuit in Statera was originally influenced by the *location*, Gliese 581c and its unique planetary conditions, or was it the *people* aboard Potenmotus who were responsible for catalyzing the notion of the nation who just so happened to arrive and inhabit a planet orbiting the system of Gliese 581.

### Myth

The founding Myth of Vita Genuit In Statera, The Myth of The Inscite Intelligentes, describes how the humans species landed on Gliese 581c, how they divided and explored different areas of Gliese 581c, started building Geodesic Domes, and generally how they inhabited Gliese 581c from the day they landed.

This Myth gives the reader a look into the perspective of how a sentient being on Gliese 581c would perceive humans and what they do. The Myth explicitly and implicitly implies the knowledge of such sentient being in terms of human behavior, man made objects, and the history of Gliese 581c. The Myth of The Inscite Intelligentes also informs the reader that Gliese 581c has a calendar. At the start of the Myth we read, "Eons ago, Around the arrival date of a new species on Gliese 581c, Annus Novus 0, Novusdies." That date would mean May 9th, in terms of an Earth calendar date, the Myth writes about a date that is not an earthly date. From this the reader can infer that Gliese 581c has a calendar that is not of Earth.

The Myth is from an omniscient narrator perspective just like one from Earth would be. However, it is an omniscient narrator that has only lived on Gliese 581c and is looking upon the human species arriving on to Gliese 581c. This omniscient narrator is all knowing and all seeing, hence omniscient, but it is only all knowing of everything that derives from Gliese 581c which gives the Myth and the narration some gray area for the reader to let their imagination take over, as well as personality. Additionally, this Myth is written to be as if the narrator was talking or telling a story to another person, this adds to the enthusiasm and personality of the Myth.

Furthermore, this Myth was discovered by the archaeologists aboard Potenmotus. Nonetheless, these archaeologists did not study and look for human history and artifacts, they looked for the history of Gliese 581c and everything on it. On top of that, the archaeologists from Vita Genuit In Statera would go on multiple expeditions a week in search of anything they could find about Gliese 581c and all the organisms or life on it. The Myth was found at the mountains south of the Interiorem Silvam, a forest to the South of where Potenmotus and the humans landed. This Myth was found by the archaeologists that went south of where the people of Vita Genuit In Statera landed. As stated in the Myth, "The group that went South encountered the Interiorem Silvam, a forest filled with trees and trees as far as you can see." This group were the ones who discovered the myth. These archaeologists did not discover the myth on this expedition, it took them much longer in order to find the myth and even longer to translate it. While the archaeologists were hiking up these mountains, at about half height of the mountain, they came across a cave. They explore this cave, every corner, to the deepest depths, this paid off. In the abyss of darkness they found, what they would soon figure out, a myth. This myth was in a completely different language. The archaeologists were shocked. They instantly turned back and went on their way to their landing site. They did not want to risk anything happening to this sacred text they had found. Over time they were able to translate this myth to English.

In the end, after they had translated this myth they realized this was only the prequel to a series of ancient texts that would explain the history of Gliese 581c and the life on it.

### Constitution

The Constitution for Vita Genuit in Statera was ratified on Annus Novus 3, Tertiodie (May 1) and was the founding document for the nation of Vita Genuit in Statera. Within the pages of this salient text lay the fundamental principles and established precedence that the government of Vita Genuit in Statera vowed to carry out as they served the nation. The preamble is 586 words long and focuses on the shortcomings of civilization on Earth while regarding the escape to Gliese 581c as an "emancipation" and case for redeeming a bygone human society by rebuilding a nation anew. The preamble is said to be heavily inspired and influence by several Hopes & Dreams pieces, specifically the letters written by citizens of Vita Genuit in Statera submitted to the government as aspirations and desires they had for a burgeoning society and speeches from government figures. Additionally in the Constitution, there are 8 articles outlining the chief laws that govern the political figures that wield the highest positions in the land. These articles regard Commerce, Military, Economy, Labor, Growth, Safety, Media, and Principles. Furthermore the ratification of the founding document was a monumental moment for the whole nation and called upon the signatures of all six members of of the Council of Vita Genuit in Statera.

#### Hopes & Dreams

The Hopes & Dreams pieces were one of the oldest documents recovered from Vita Genuit in Statera and is a series of letter and directed to the government by the citizens or speeches that have been written by political figures who voice their ideals, hopes, desires, goals, and objectives they want to see fulfilled or at the very least have considered when undertaking a colossal task such as fabricating a new nation. There have been a total of five Hopes & Dreams pieces that have recovered all varying in topic, tone, and perspective yet having a sense of continuity as collectively they represent the tenets Vita Genuit in Statera was built upon.

## Gliese 581c

Gliese 581c is a planet approximately 20 light years away from Earth, towards the constellation of Aquarius. It is determined to be somewhere between 5.5~10.4 Earth masses and has an orbital period of 13 Earth days, while the orbital radius is only about 7% of Earth. This equates to being only 11 million kilometers away from Gliese 581's sun while Earth is roughly 150 million kilometers away from our sun. The gravity and radius of Gliese 581c would be at least 1.5 times that of Earth and has a dense atmosphere which is filled with significant trances of water which causes numerous cloud formations which range in shape and size. Overall, it has a large outer hydrosphere but consequently that makes breathing difficult for normal human lungs which is why the nation of Vita Genuit in Staera utilized advanced Oxygen Technology such as Oxygenators and Atmospheric Regulator Tanks (ARTs).

The neighboring planets and civilizations have been mapped out by the people of Vita Genuit in Statera which imply their readiness for interactions with other nations as well as their intergalactic cartography capabilities which have proved useful in initiating attacks and forming alliances. Although Vita Genuit in Statera is the only nation on Gliese 581c, the other planets in the Gliese 581 system includes Gliese 581g which is home to Nova Terra and Gliese 581d which is the home to Cesarstan and The Republic of Alejec. Additionally, 16 light years from Gliese 581c is Proxima Centauri b which is home to three nations; the United Federation of Alpha Centauri, Tahiti, and Myceleties. Furthermore it is 4 light years from Gliese 667Cc which is home to Slowfolks and The Parliamentary Republic of Ecyles. And finally it is 20 light years from Trappist 1e which is home to TOAAC, an alliance member, and Azon, the nation who Vita Genuit in Statera was warring with and ultimately triumphed over.

Gliese 581
### Geography

The planet of Gliese 581c, like other planets in the surrounding area, has a status of being tidally-locked with its sun which means unlike Earth which rotates every 24 hours which is where the day/night cycle is derived from. Gliese 581c has one half of its planet perpetually facing towards the sun and vice versa. This results in a polarized distribution of heat and sunlight which means there are extreme temperatures on both sides of the spectrum. On one hand, the side facing towards the sun is dubbed the Heated Badlands by locals and can reach estimated temperatures of 61.7 degrees Celsius (143 degrees Fahrenheit) while the side facing away from the sun, and thus is in a constant ice age darkness, is named the Frozen Wastelands which can reach nearly -44.5 degrees Celsius (-112 degrees Fahrenheit). This duality in temperatures, this dichotomy, has significantly influenced the culture and art of the people of Vita Genuit in STatera and even the name itself translates to, *Life Birthed Through Balance,* due to the fact that the only patch of land suitable for life is in the middle of the blazing hot and the freezing cold. This sliver of territory is where the nation exists while it is restrictive in terms of potential territorial expansion, it is quintessential to the survival of the people.

The recovery of a Vita Genuit in Statera Map created by the people of the nation gives us a glimpse into their perspective of their land and by nearly all measure they were quite accurate and precise in the geography of the planet. Firstly, there are mountain ranges on nearly every side of the main settlements which protects the inside from the lethal and harsh winds that occur as a result of the difference in temperature and atmospheric pressure between the west and the east. These ranges, which have all been named by the people of Vita Genuit in Statera, act like natural wind barriers which shield the inner forests and rivers from damage. This being said, wind speeds can still reach dangerous levels and there is evidence certain settlements have experienced severe hurricanes and typhoons over time.

## Alien Species

On the planet of Gliese 581c, there were native inhabitants of the land before humans arrived after the fall of Earth. There are a total of 4 recorded alien life by various explorers and scientists and while none are humanoid, there is evidence to suggest some were highly intelligent and have extraordinary creature abilities. These are the Borgorgon, the Tameleon, the Terra-Polyanea, and the Volantem Obumbratio.

### Borgorgon

The first reported sighting of a Borgorgon happened to a lonely hiker. They documented their sighting to their closest companion who wrote down exactly what they said in this Journal Entry. The species has been used for transportation on occasion, but that is only the domesticated Borgorgons. The Borgorgon are boar-like in that they are similar in size and build. From the waist up, the Borgorgons have emerald green scales that are rough and offer protection. The waist below dons furry hair, coarse and wiry much like that of a boar. The Borgorgons have fur so that when they swim they can smoothly travel through the water and keep warm on the mountains. They walk on all fours and are generally unsettling to gaze upon.

BoregorgonBoregorgon NestBoregorgon Adhesive
### Tameleon

The Tamelon is similar to the size and weight of a lion which a average male lion weighs between 150 - 350 kg (330 - 770 Ib) which is the weight of male and female Tameleons. The Tamelon has a turtle shell to protect all its main organs, in case of endangerment, turtle shells can also hold up to 90 kg (200 Ib) making it easy for the species to hold resources. The Tamelon usually lives under the sea and an assortment of coral, although the Tamelon is half chameleon and can change its body temperature to match any climate, so the Tamelon can survive basically anywhere.

Tameleons typically are loyal to one's owner, they tend to be friendly towards other species unless provoked by Borgorgons, Borgorgons and Tameleons have a long past of hatred against each other this is because the Borgorgons are known kipling thieves, they will creep into the sand borrows and place the kiplings in their mysterious second head, were they will later eat them like a snack, not all Borgorgons are awful only a select few of the males try this heinous act so keep your kiplings safe and away from the thieves that call themselves the “Borgorgons''. They tend to sleep in between 1-4 hours each night, Tameleons often spit to mark their territory for other animals to back off, this can be compared to when a dog urinates on an upright object. Tameleons tend to travel with a group of 2-5 Tameleons. when Tameleons become happy they flip over on there shell and begins to spin rapidly on said shell.

When the female Tameleons are pregnant they typically are pregnant for 59 - 72 days when the female Tameleon lays her eggs . The male takes them and burrows the eggs in the sand by their designated coral reef habitat to keep the eggs safe so another species does not obtain them. Female Tameleons lay on average 12 eggs but usually only 6 make it to the hatching stage. When kiplings are hatched the female Tameleon pulls the kiplings out of the borrow and nurses for up to 2 weeks, after the 2 weeks the baby kiplings are picked up by the male Tameleon and dragged to a designated spot were they shall grow up. If the baby kiplings where to stay with the female Tameleon for too long she would end up killing the kiplings.

### Terra-Polyranea

Terra-PolyaneaThe Terra-Polyranea was originally found in a tree thought to be moving branches of the tree. While archaeologists were exploring the Frigus SIlva, they encountered a "moving tree" this moving tree was actually a new species they had encountered now known as the Terra-Polyranea. They later took another expedition back to examine this "moving tree" which is when they realized they had encountered a new creature, they then captured it, took it back to their labs in the geodesic domes, did further researcher, and experimentation on it. The following is everything known about the Terra-Polyranea.

The Terra-Polyranea consists of 3 foot long tentacles and a 1 foot tall head, resulting in a 4 foot tall Terra-Polyranea. Each arm has 200 suckers and can hold at least 35 pounds and wrench open whatever it needs to. The arms have developed to have bone structure composed of hard living tissue providing structural support to the body allowing it to use its 8 arms to walk like a spider on ground. The Terra-Polyranea also has an internal shell which is an exoskeleton which encloses, supports and protects the soft parts of the Terra-Polyranea. Each arm has setules that provide a better grip for climbing. The Terra-Polyranea has a total of 800,00 setules, 100,000 per arm. The skin of this species has a leathery texture with chromatophores allowing it to camouflage. The Terra-Polyranea has 2 eyes with scotopic vision that can see 360 degrees, this means it has no blind spot. They have developed to see color and about 10 miles far. The major organs that are noteworthy are explained in detail below.

##### Chromatophores

The primary function of the chromatophores is camouflage. They are used to match the brightness of the background and produce components that help the animal achieve general resemblance to substrate or break up the body's outline. Each chromatophore organ comprises an elastic sacculus containing pigment, to which is attached a set of obliquely striated radial muscles, each with its nerves and glia.

##### IX brains

The function of the centralized brain is to be able to exert top-down control. In addition to the central brain, each of its 8 arms has a mini-brain that allows it to act independently - able to taste, touch, and move without direction. This arrangement enables the Terra-Polyranea to complete tasks with their arms more quickly and effectively. Since the Terra-Polyranea has 8 mini brains in its arms, the central brain does not need to focus on moving itself around, allowing it to be more intelligent in other aspects.

##### III Hearts

The Terra-Polyranea has evolved to have three hearts. The function of having 3 as opposed to 1 heart is to help get sufficient amounts of blood filled with hydrogen and helium to all parts of the body, even to the tips of the arms. Two of the hearts pump blood to the lungs, this would make it easier for them to breathe in the harsh heat, cold, and dense atmosphere in Gliese 581c. Finally, the larger heart circulates blood to the rest of the body.

##### Lungs

Their function in the Terra-Polyraneas's respiratory system is to extract hydrogen and helium from the air and transfer it into the bloodstream, and to release carbon dioxide from the bloodstream into the atmosphere, in a process of gas exchange.

### Volantem Obumbratio

Volantem OpunbratioThis creature can be found in various forests across Vita Genuit in Statera but they were originally found flying over Interiorem Silvam and the nearby mountain range. They have a max flying height at around 7000 ft and a diving height of 5000 ft. They are known to have a piscivore diet although there are rumors they have been spotted eating fruit. Their wings are reinforced with a strong skeleton and the outer part of the wing is resilient to high winds and frigid temperatures. All of their organs are housed in a protected chest cavity and in total, their body can weigh 12-18 Ib. They have extraordinary speed and agility which makes them look like flying shadow figures when they are hunting. In fact, this is where their name originates from. It is theorized they have scotopic vision and use echolocation to locate their food. A unique characteristic of this creature is its cocoon hibernation style sleep to conserve energy. They are highly maneuverable and have nocturnal qualities, however, they are observed to be circling their nests during a majority of the day. The major organs that are noteworthy are explained in detail below.

##### High Thermal Mass Wings

While much is unknown, this species has special inner wings with high thermal mass. This is the ability to absorb and store heat to release it at a later time. This capability provides protection against cold temperatures and extreme temperature fluctuations.

##### Pineal Gland

Due to our planet being tidally locked with the sun, there is no natural day/night cycle. Therefore in order to maintain a healthy circadian rhythm, this vital gland produces melatonin which is a hormone known for regulating sleep cycles

##### Thyroid Gland

This gland is located near the base of the neck and serves a vital role in hormone regulation and metabolism. This is especially important given the cold temperatures which can easily disrupt chemical reactions within the body

##### Duel Cardiac System

This species has two conjoined hearts, one for the purpose of activity and responsive movement, and another for hibernation - like sleep. By alternating between the two, it has evolved to have optimal energy conservation. The active heart is larger and can reach 60-180 bpm, while the hibernation heart will peak at around 20 bpm.

## Intergalactic Interactions

A fundamental aspect of CivGame is the ability for nations to interact with each other in cordial, or sometimes conflicting ways such as kindling alliances and partnerships or declaring war on each other. Vita Genuit in Statera has quite the experience with both of these and is arguably the nation that has partaken in more intergalactic interactions that any other nation. This section explores the various ways these relationships have transpired and provides and overview of the major undertakings the government of Vita Genuit in Statera experienced.

#### Wars

Across the history of Vita Genuit in Statera there is recorded evidence of several conflicts involving the nation each having tremendously costs and consequences, as all wars do. War declarations and peace treaties alike have significantly shaped how the civilizations interact with one another and repeated history has shown these interactions often lead to the near financial fallout of one group while an insurmountable accumulation of wealth for the other, the tainted reputation of one government while the immediate gratification of the other, and other such disparities. These byproducts of war have caused dismay across the galaxy and has possibly strained the social fabric in ways unbeknownst to many. Contentious fighting and mounting full-scale wars due to petty reasons has been distinctly apparent and a circumstance many nations of this time found themselves in. Vita Genuit in Statera is no stranger to this as they were the the first nation in the galaxy to legitimize and mount a war against Azon and ultimately be victorious. However, the full story is much more convoluted and complicated than a traditional one-and-done battle with an immediate outcome. Additionally, long after this quarrel with Azon, Vita Genuit in Statera would find themselves in yet another perilous situation as the Great HSB Conflict had crept upon them and was threatening the security of their nation in ways hitherto unheard of. The stakes were, at one point, the total annihilation of the planet and there is evidence of double-crossing other nations and alliance members working as a double-agent and pulling strings for multiple people of conflicting political stances. This war, involving nearly all nations in the galaxy, has had notably less accessible documentation from Vita Genuit in Statera, theorized to be because of security purposes, however, in conjunction with evidence from other nations, historians have been able to piece together the conspiring, backstabbing, and under the table deals that has allegedly transpired and played a determining role in the massive war.

The first war was declared against Azon in the Declaration of War on May 17. There were various reasons for this decision, however, ultimately it came down to Vita Genuit in Statera having confidence in their military assets to go against Azon in either arm wrestling, blitz chess, and remembering digits of pi, and they were allegedly "strongly advised" to go against this nation per a request by an HSB member due to this group having certain troublesome members that have caused the HSB and the general galaxy moral distress. However, the government of Vita Genuit in Statera has become paranoid after they declared war because Azon was suspected of conspiring against them by reading the fine print of the declaration and trying to exploit a loophole within it. In the end, Azon had discovered Vita Genuit in Statera hadn't specified "foul play" which meant they could use a solid argument such as, "Technology plays an integral role in modern warfare therefore it is only reasonable that (Azon) has the ability to exercise our scientific knowledge in times of need." And with the HSB approval already received, Azon had the ability to use a Chess AI while Vita Genuit in Statera was planning on using a human soldier. However, this did not work in favor of Azon and through various reasons of infighting within their team and a severe lack of coordination, it was Vita Genuit in Statera who won by playing with their own Chess Engine during the match. In essence, it was a proxy war with chess computers while Azon could not seem to understand how to use that supposed asset; for them it was just a liability that cost them the war.

However, this would not be the last of Azon and Vita Genuit in Statera. Although part of the stipulation of winning the war was that Azon could not declare war against Vita Genuit in Statera, it seems Azon had willfully ignored this and a couple days later they had at least attempted to declare war on Vita Genuit in Statera. Azon had provided Vita Genuit in Statera a Declaration of War in a fully typed-up document, but it turned out they had just copied Vita Genuit in Statera's Declaration of War template and changed the names to reverse it. But clearly they had missed some aspects of it and Vita Genuit in Statera kept finding holes in the document such as a lack of options for locations or times, wrong amount of stakes for the winning team, nonsensical stipulations such as "undying loyalty" which made no sense, and other such oversights that made it so Vita Genuit in Statera could demand for it to be reprinted until it was fixed. With each iteration, Vita Genuit in Statera was buying time to the point where an entire 24 hours had passed and still Azon was not able to successfully declare war.

So during this time, Vita Genuit in Statera seized this prime opportunity to declare war against Azon for a second-time which was an unpleasant surprise for Azon as most of the members had left the responsibility of war to the only member who was absent and was unavailable at the moment. In this Declaration of War 2nd Edition, it was slightly edited by Vita Genuit in Statera to match the circumstances. Additionally, the added this Violation of Stakes document which ensured Azon couldn't easily break the stipulations without repercussions like last time. However, Vita Genuit in Statera had also decided to offer Azon a Peace Treaty in exchange for 35% of their resources most likely out of exhaustion for having to deal with them. This was a quick way out and to settle the matters between them once and for all. Azon agreed to this and the lengthy conflict had finally come to an end.

Furthermore, there is an Azon v. Vita Genuit in Statera Rap which recounts the tale of this epic battle in a musical form.

##### Ghost Wars

The alleged Ghost Wars is first recorded in the News\_ by VGiS and appears to be the government of Vita GEnuit in STatera allegedly declaring war on nations and then quickly canceling it before it becomes widespread. Because there is not a substantial amount of evidence to form solid conclusion historians can only speculate what happened. But based on rumors during this time and an anonymous source providing documentation that was recently discovered, it seems that Vita Genuit in Statera had declared war on \_ and \_ but ultimately decide to retract and not formalize any of these because Vita Genuit in Statera had gotten of taste of how powerful their military assets were and decided it would be wiser to not interfere with their business.

#### Alliances

## Government

Part of the responsibility of the government is appropriately responding to sudden crisis and disaster that were unforeseen but nevertheless pose severe threats to the security of the nation. The so-called "Wrenches" are various disasters that suddenly strike a nation and have consequences depending on the nation's tier level for certain categories and overall response plan that is evaluated by another nation. For Vita Genuit in Statera, they were struck with two Wrenches, the first being a famine which is heavily documented in the VGiS article, Widespread Famine Crisis. And later they were struck with an economic recession that impacted every aspect of their nation. Both times Vita Genuit in Statera was able to get through each emergency with little repercussions in part due to their thorough research of similar historical experiences. For the famine, there is evidence they looked back on the Great Potato Famine of 1845 and The Great Chinese Famine of 1958. For the economic recession, they went to great lengths reviewing The Great Depression and the 2008 Financial Crisis. The understanding of these events can be found in the evidence from their government below.

The Great Depression2008 Financial Crisis
## Legal Documents

The following papers are all various document written and officilized by the government of Vita Genuit in Statera and serves a wide variety of purposes such as negotiating transactions with the HSB directly to providing a written statement for the consequences of violating a war stipulation. Typically each document will contain the signature of a member of the Council of Vita Genuit in Statera and possibly an HSB approval signature, however, occasionally there is neither which indicates the document was created by the government but was never utilized for one reason or another.

#### Special Request

The Special Request document from the government of Vita Genuit in Statera originated from the stipulation instituted by the HSB that the initial drafting the each nation receives can have an added 4 bonus material tokens if they can prove they have contributed to the creative of CivGame which is something one member of Vita Genuit in Statera did in fact do. Additionally a nation can be awarded HSB Credits if they can make document templates for certain things such as war declarations, peace treaties, and special requests according to the Rules of the Game. Therefore, in creating an official Special Request document, they subsequently created the template for one and was able to acquire the bonus material which was 4 HSB Credits.

Special Request
#### Signature Document

The Signature Document was created in order to house the approval signatures by the HSB member and scientist Connor Houghtby in order to provide evidence that Vita Genuit in Statera did in fact have the ability to acquire Common Material, Rare Material, Energy, Oxygen, Food, and Water. Although the Department of Science and Energy published only 4 reports, they covered all 6 resources which is why some resources were signed simultaneously for a single report which can be deducted by the signature colors. It is said Connor Houghtby specifically requested to use his own "special markers" instead of the provided black pen to sign the document.

Signature Document
#### Approval Paper

This approval paper was originally intended to house more than one signature but rather to accommodate a wide range of uses for different situations which is why there are only blank lines in order to write the purpose above. however, in the end the government used it only once with the HSB approval for The Syndicate Alliance which is said to have happened through an underhand deal with the HSB member Matt Darling. Allegedly, Vita Genuit in Statera made a transaction of buying a food token from the HSB for 18 HSB credits and soon after The Syndicate Alliance was mysteriously approved by the HSB although the involved nations did not yet have the required communication tier to make such partnership.

Approval Paper
#### Official Decree

This Official Decree implemented by the government of Vita Genuit in Statera was a measure to ensure the population of Vita Genuit in Statera remained at a constant 1000 which was necessary to provide survival resources to all citizens while still being able to have a surplus and not run thin on supply even through a crisis such as the Widespread Famine.

Official Decree
#### Special Intergalactic Migration

The Special Intergalactic Migration was a negotiation that arose due to the sudden refugee crisis which struck the galaxy in which there was a sudden surge of refugees that needed to be addressed and every nation would need to bear the responsibilities of the emergency. At the time of this crisis, if no further negotiations with the HSB was made, the 300,000 refugees would be split evenly among all 18 nations and each would receive nearly 12,000 additional people to feed and take care of. However, if an arrangement was made with the HSB, it would be possible to get external assistance to mainin high tiers of food, water, and oxygen and in exchange the nation would take more than the original 12,000 people, and in some cases, an upward of 40,000 refugees would be taken in. With higher tier, the nation would gain more survival resources and thus be able to manage tending to that large population. While Vita Genuit in Statera did not make a separate arrangement with the HSB, they had partnered with their alliance member TOAAC, and utilize The Australia Accords which is an HSB approved arrangement which permits the use of a Trappist-1f which is a planet orbiting the star of Trappist-1. The details of this is outlined in the document but in essence it is a planet with a plethora of resources which can be used to support a large population such as the refugee migrants. TOAAC had already lay claim to this planet and therefore would hold the rights to the planet and have the ability to allow other nations to gain access to it. While TOAAC granted Vita Genuit in Statera access to transfer their refugees to the planet, the journey to get from Gliese 581c to Trappist-1f a constantly voyage and the Special Intergalactic Migration lists the expenses, navigation course, and signatures which ratified the document.

#### Special-Case Temporary Resident Document

The Special-Case Temporary Resident Document was created by the government of Vita Genuit in Statera during their conflict with Azon due to an asterisk stipulation in the Declaration of War which states, "However, Vita Genuit in Statera will make an exception for individual members of Azon who request to be safely transferred to our nation after the war, in the event they do not want to bear the repercussions of the war. If the Special-Case Temporary Resident Document is approved, they will be accommodated by our nation, lose rights to their former country Azon, and be granted the legal rights and liberties instituted under the Constitution of Vita Genuit in Statera until further notice."

#### Violation of Stakes

The Violation of Stakes was created after the first was with Azon when they violated one stipulation in the Declaration of War when Azon declared war on Vita Genuit in Statera even though they had lost and thus lost the ability to do so in accordance to second stipulation of the STAKES. However, since Azon was not able to successfully declare war, Vita Genuit in Statera seized the opportunity to re-declare war on Azon and as an addition to the Declaration of War 2nd Edition, they wrote this document which clarifies the consequence for violating one of the stipulations as to ensure Azon doesn't exploit the same oversight twice.

#### Reward Contract

This Reward Contract is written evidence of a negotiation Vita Genuit in Statera had with the HSB. The document claims to receive resource benefits for creating the "first Declaration of War and Peace Treaty, therefore making the templates for both; the Bi-Weekly Demand Contract; the Special-Case Temporary Resident Document; this Reward Contract; and being the first group to fully execute an official war; and continually protecting the integrity of the game throughout all affairs," They offer the HSB three options and in the end Vita Genuit in Statera receives 18 food, water, and oxygen tokens.

## Media

According to Article VII of the Constitution of Vita genuit in Statera, the media has, for the most part, been unregulated by the government and thus allowing any independent media institution to publically output sentiments that are at times critical towards the government with no repercussions. Their government knowingly instituted this within their Constitution to ensure the protection of free speech as drafted as part of their principles of democracy. Therefore, the recovered articles from the news media organization can be at times critical of the government, but nevertheless, the people of Vita Genuit in Statera received their news through these VGiS News Articles.

## Technology

Vita Genuit in Statera is known for their massive technological feats and their contributions they made to the galaxy as a whole. Their Department of Science and Energy was one of the most influential organization in the science industry and was a pioneer in various practical applications such as the harvesting of food and water to the extraction of resources such as metals and minerals. Their advancements in these areas are in part what aided Vita Genuit in Statera's unprecedented accumulation of wealth and their works have been recognized by many as "superlative".

### Intergalactic Transportation

The Potenmotus was an intergalactic spaceship owned by Vita Genuit in Statera with lightspeed travel capabilities and a massive capacity to house people for extended periods of time. There are two recorded uses for this ship although based on logical deductions it is highly likely Vita Genuit in Statera used it quite frequently. The first recorded use for it was the travel from Earth to Gliese 581c which was nearly 20 light years away and required it to go farther and at a higher velocity than it had ever gone in the prior field tests. The second time was in the refugee transfer from Gliese 581c to Trappist-1f in accordance to The Australia Accords and the Special Intergalactic Migration document. It was developed and built by the same people who ran the Department of Science and Energy, however at the time of construction their team wasn't formally recognized by the Council of Vita Genuit in Statera but it is said that because of the creation of Potenmotus, the government decided to increase funding for their team and rename them to become The Department of Science and Energy.
