One Earth Republic

I thank Sonofchari for accepting the debate. I intend to debate this topic in sections. I intend to debate this topic in sections, Reason being I cannot cover everything from geopolitics to economy in one round.

1. How should we achieve OER?
In reality, It does not matter. You could achieve it via compulsory world domination or through peaceful means. I don’t want to debate the morality here, But whoever says that war is bad is just wrong. The technological achievements are fruits of 10, 000 years old wars. And the first hammer was not crafted to do work, Rather it was crafted by the first psychopath to hit and smash some heads.

2. How should the borders be drawn?
After conquering the whole planet, The most rational thing to do is divide Earth into regions based on national and cultural identity. This means dividing some big countries or combining some small countries. I would suggest that the smaller the regions are, The better it is to rule over them. And some lands can be procured by the federal government of OER, Such as Sahara, Amazon, And Antarctic. Each region should have its parliament and governor. The division should be done in such a manner that the area and population of each region are nearly equal.

3. Parliament

1. 1. Lower House – consisting of elected officials, One or two per region. Lower House has the right to access budget, Of inquiry, Question the members of the government, And to introduce the motions, To amend bills and of the initiative.
   2. Upper House – members are selected based on their experience in a certain field. It is non-democratic and technocratic organization. It has the same rights as Lower House, In addition, It can oversee the Lower House and can dismiss the government.

4. Government
Government members are selected from technocrats. Head of government is Prime Minister. Its structure is similar to the German and UK government.


5. Office of President
President is elected by Lower House. Presidents role is similar to German President or Japanese Emperor.


6. Currency
The very first job of OER is get rid of the fiat money for better economic stability. Having dual or triple currency models is more reasonable. Such as gold standard, E-currency and etc.


7. Opposition
Most of the opposition to the new system will come from conservatives and ultra-right wings. The easiest way to deal with such oppositions is to get rid of them with any means possible and as soon as possible. It is the most rational choice for newborn states and systems. By doing so, OER will drastically lower the risk of civil uprise and civil war.


8. Population reduction
Each state should reduce its population. Candidates should be chosen randomly. The candidates must be older than 36 months and pregnant women are exempt from the population reduction program. Given the population of State A is x% of the total population of Earth, Then State A should reduce its population by x%. It is only a one-time program. And the unemployment rate will drop drastically.


9. Conclusion
I dived into structural and organizational matters in this round, And also solutions for certain problems. I will discuss politics and economics in more details in the next round.
