[QUOTE="J. Alexander, post: 4080786, member: 28453"] [b]The Colony[/b] "The nobel title can either be granted by one of the five countries or it can be granted enblock and pertain only to the colony. I imagine that this will be an individual choice. For starters we have all agreed that the intial title shall be that of Baron. Subsquent increase in rank shall either be awarded by the soverign should you choose a country based title or by the colonial council. In no case will the title be greater than that of Duke. Each intial patent shall cost the recepitant the sum of 30,000 gold pieces. This title shall include a land grant intial of 1280 acres with an addiionaly 1280 acres granted every three years for a term of 12 years. You may chose all the land at one time in one block and it shall be reserved for you until the grants become offical allowing you to work in advance on the land or you may choose it in seperate tracts in advance and do the same. Of course on such tracts you will have title to all mineral, forrestry, fishery rights etc.................depending on the land you chose. The colony shall have several representatives of the church and the church has agreed to appoint a leader for the colony as well as orders for both missionary and hospital work. The intial fleet size of ten ships should be capable of carrying several hundred individuals with the necessary supplies etc in addition to a company of men at arms for colonial security. As to personaly investment you have your initial grants how you chose to develope them and to what extent is up to you..but no no intial commercial investment has been decided upon. Now we do realize that the 30,000 gold pieces may be a bit beyond the reach of some of you. Therfore we have arranged for financing of up to 25,000 gold pieces with the land you are granted pledged as security for the loan. The monies rasied from these patents shall form the inital colonial treasurey which the colonial council may either spend or take with them. The ruling council will intialy consist of you gentlmen as well as the five representatives of teh countries participating. Six months after the colony has been founded then elections must occur to fill those vacant positions. [/QUOTE]
