				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>National assembly (Althing) of the National Republic of Iceland has proposed?the following points as a working draft to open a dialogue with other Republics worldwide for establishing a Union of Republics.</p>
<ul>
<li>A Union of Republics (U.R.), is a union of sovereign and autonomous republics world wide?who have a proven process of granting all its citizens access to authentic and dynamic &#8211; or direct &#8211; democracy in praxis.</li>
<li>The general assembly of the U.R. has no authority over its member states.</li>
<li>A resolution of the U.R. must be unanymously accepted by all member states in order to have any effect or validity.</li>
<li>Member states of the U.R. do not engage in warfare?against other states or entities outside their natural or otherwise devised and accepted borders.</li>
<li>Conflict between member states must be resolved through dialogue and/or arbitration in all instances where possible.</li>
<li>Member states of the U.R. view violence as a <em>last resort of an exhausted mind</em>.</li>
</ul>
<p>The above points are proposed as a simple working draft and an opening for further dialogue and discussion. Other points are currently being discussed and?<em>this page will be updated or appendixed in the coming weeks (2017)</em>.</p>
<p>The National Republic of Iceland has accepted a decree to open a dialogue with other republics &#8211; and/or micronations &#8211; around the world and chosen two officials to represent the state if such dialogue should?occur.</p>
<p>It has also been accepted to translate the constitution of the National Republic of Iceland from Icelandic into English as soon as possible and is already underway.</p>
