**A Law** to protect, defend, and preserve the noble history, culture, and tradition of the Triumvirate

**Section 1: Historical Records**

Records of all significant events in Triumvirate history must be publically documented. Should a significant event occur that has reasonable justification for being confidential and prevented from public release or recognition, it should not be displayed until the confidentiality has been lowered to a level reasonable for release.
**Section 2: Portraits**

All Executives, Chief Justices, Major Executives, Minor Executives, Speakers of the Administration, and members of the Administrative Branch shall be entitled to a small non-colored bust portrait, should they not already possess one, funded by the government up to 5 tri.
Every Major Executive and person who has received the Triunity High Honor Emblem shall have the exclusive right, regardless of current standing, to a single colored political portrait, reasonably styled as they please which shall be funded and procured by the Executive Branch to a reasonable extent. This does not restrict others from getting portraits on other terms.
**Section 2.1: Contents of Portraits**
In these portraits the receiver may choose what imagery is incorporated. No writing may be implemented unless it is symbolic or historically significant, or unless it is the name of the artist behind the portrait in which case it may only be printed small in the lower border of the portrait. No other person may be in the portrait besides the award receiver that is its subject. The portrait must accurately portray their demeanor and appearance as they please provided it is of human extent. It may not contain any offensive material, libel of another, expression against another, or advertisement for any product or subject besides the central views of the subject or the artist’s signature.
**Section 3: Cultural Endowment**

All significant pieces of media (including but not limited to artwork, video, sound, or writing) may, under the provisions of the Triumvirate Endowment Program Act, support the media and maintain cultural growth in the Triumvirate. The Triumvirate government may purchase or acquire, with the consent of the owner, media so that it may be preserved and archived by the government. If this is done, it must be left in an untainted state by the government and all relevant information about it must be presented accurately.
**Section 4: Collection and Conservation**

The Executive Branch shall oversee the conservation of historical knowledge and artifacts.

**Section 7: Historical Organization**

Triumvirate history shall be organized as set by this law via ages, eras, and trimesters. The government shall utilize these to accurately reference and point to historical events and periods.
