abstract
| - The Global Nation exists to "create a better world for people everywhere" and has been characterised as a "fight against the geopolitical and economic status quo." In order to do this, the Global Nation advocated the establishment of a cooperative Communes. In 2010, the Global Nation founded a commune on Treasure Island, off the coast of San Francisco City, Sierra which was leased to the organisation by the San Francisco City municipal government. In 2011, a second commune was established in Shinmin, Korea, followed in 2013 by several more communes affiliating themselves with the Global Nation. The Global Nation has abolished the need for currency within its borders through collective responsibility and self-management of the economy. The organisation also undertakes international campaigns and issue advocacy in favour of human rights and social welfare, aswell as programs focusing around artistic expression. According to the Global Nation's constitution, it is a cooperative society in which all citizens are equal and free to organise their lives how they wish. However, while there are no official leaders, there is the post of First Among Equals, who acts in a similar way to a Head of State. This post was created by the recognition of the need to have an individual to undertake the Global Nation's affairs and represent it internationally, and has little to no power on domestic policy. Domestic policy therefore, is decided by the General Congress, which consists of all 1,297 citizens of the nation who collectively make decisions regarding the direction of the commune. The Global Nation is regarded as an 'cooperative hivemind' powered by direct democracy and collective decision-making. All citizens are considered equal without exception. However, there are 9 Common Laws that apply to citizens of the Commune which are bound by the constitution. These laws are enforced by the community who have collective responsibility for policing as there is no established police force, while emergency services for fire and healthcare exist. The commune advocates the freedom of expression and speech through artistic means, and has a vibrant artistic culture full of varieties of styles and genres.
