This constitution cannot be amended without consent of the King, and even with the King’s consent to amendmentation, the King himself must approve any amendments before they are official.

3. The second level is Member of the Advisory Board. These people are direct advisors and helpers to the King, and can be likened to appointed Ministers.
4. The third level is Royalty. These are members of the Royal Family, such as King, Queen, Crown Prince etc.
5. Respect goes upward: citizens pay respect to the Members of the Advisory Board and the King and the Members of the Advisory Board pay respect to the King.

8. The Chancellor can only be appointed and deposed by the King, just as with other Members of the Advisory Board.
Article 4 – Forum Decorum

2. Insulting the King or the other members of the Royalty is not permitted.
3. Insulting Members of the Advisory Board is not permitted unless such slander can be backed up with evidence.
4. Citizens should try to keep threads relevant, although this is not strictly enforced. Also, when a citizen or foreigner posts a new thread, he or she should try to post this thread in the correct board and category.
