ECOSEAS

ECOSEAS or the Economic Community of Southern and External Avalonian States is an economic, cultural and military union located in Avalonia. Its membership is largely located in Southern Avalonia.

The union was founded in 1968, and formalised in the Treaty of Tchetchuàn City, although several the member-states had been in an informal alliance since the late 1920's.

Structure
ECOMsAD is directed by an elected committee of legal, financial, political and military officers from the various member states. They are organised into the ECOMsAD Parliamentary Sub-Structure.

Parliamentary Sub-Structure
Composed of 340 seats, from which are assigned selected officials from each nation and also the major corporate partners of ECOMsAD. At this time; 164 seats are controlled by SiWallqanqa, 58 by the Arum Republic, 71 by Yucatec, 29 by Pukara, and 18 to representatives of the private industries.

The Directorate
The Directorate is a now disbanded governing body within the ECOMsAD command structure, that oversaw the nations under the hegemony of SiWallqanqa throughout most of the 20th century. It was composed primarily of members of the Parliamentary Sub-Structure, who had been selected by the SiWallqanqan government to represent their nation within ECOMsAD. Members of the Directorate also oversaw the appointment, verification and oversight of elected and non-elected officials within the nations under SiWallqanqa's hegemony (Sinaya, Pukara and the Arum Republic).

It was officially disbanded in 2002, in response to public outcry, but continued to exist in a less visible state, acting through laws and ordnances enshrined in ECOMsAD and national constitutions, and through control of key institutions. During the SiWallqanqan Civil War, the last remnants of the Directorate were swept aside, as SiWallqanqa's influence decreased within ECOMsAD. At this point, SiWallqanqa still possesses soft power projection over its former subjects, and also retains the largest contributions and elected positions within the Parliamentary Sub-Structure.

Economy
ECOMsAD is a primarily manufacturing-based economy, producing vast quantities of resources and manufactured product each year, capitalising on the resource-rich nature of the Paracas Coast, and the technological and scientific advancements of many of its member-states: Jinhang and Yucatec.

Shared Currency
Within ECOMsAD several nations share a common currency using the Paraci (₱), adopted in 1947. Prior to that, the SiWallqanqan Crown (SCr) had been used throughout the same nations, coming from the imposition of Tiperyn financial institutions upon SiWallqanqa during the Colonial Era.

The Paraci is overseen in the Central Southern Financial Commission which is headquartered in Belhavo, Republika Akhalia. Countries that use the Paraci are: SiWallqanqa, Sinaya, Arum Republic and Pukara.

Legislative History and Initiatives
Native Migration Act is a bill proposed by Baileneu Ma that would allow native ethnicities from across ECOSEAS nations to hold citizenship without Visa requirements in the nations of ECOSEAS. This would also allow for limited native migration from Santa Magdalena and Albaterra, for asylum seekers and some economic migrants.

Biofuel Trade and Production Amendment is a bill proposed by Baileneu Ma that expands upon the 1956 Treaty of Pamineau (ABS) that maintains the initial act, alongside other rules such as the widespread (80%) biofuel usage for public transport and aviation, as well as all ECOSEAS cars must be capable of using biofuels for cars. This bill also includes further standardization biofuel mixtures of the following: Bio-Diesel (BD40, BD60, BD75), Bio-Petrol (BP30, BP60, BP70), Bio-Butanol (BB20, BB45, BB60), Bioethers (DME, TAME, MTBE), Syngas, Methanol Fuels and Ethanol Fuels (E35, E50, E75).

Corporate Involvement
The Isle of Avalon Company and other Avalonian companies with considerable value placed in the ECOMsAD controlled region have long been considered to hold considerable sway in ECOMsAD and SiWallqanqan politics, and as of 2002, the companies were awarded their own private industry liasons and their own voice in the Parliamentary Sub-Structure of ECOMsAD. When the Parliamentary Sub-Structure was dissolved, the private industry liasions were assigned to each delegation.
