The Leftist Assembly is one of the largest leftist regions in NationStates, founded on 14 January 2016 to unite all leftists under a common banner. The region is generally government-focused, with the Secretary of the Assembly serving as its executive, The General Assembly as its mixed appointed and elected legislature and the Ministry of Law as its judiciary.

History

The Leftist Assembly was established on 14 January 2016 as a merger between The Communist Region and The Democratic Socialist Union due to stagnated growth and the desire for a unified and revitalised leftist region. The Constitution was ratified on 21 February 2016 and the Code of Laws came into effect on 2 March 2016. The region's first WA Delegate was technically Celera, but considering their tenure lasted mere hours on 26 January 2016, the first proper Delegate is generally considered to be Locksmithia, who reigned from 26 January to 7 March 2016. The first Secretary, the newly established elected leader of the region, was Atealia. The first Act to pass the General Assembly was the Electoral Reform Act, proposed by Cedoria and passed 8-1 by the 3rd General Assembly.

The Secretary of the Assembly is the regional executive and serves as the head of all legislative, diplomatic and military action. They are responsible for declaring the State of Emergency, appointing the heads of ministries that serve under them, Defence and Foreign Affairs, and they have the option to select an Overseer of Entertainment to host roleplay events.

Ministries

There are five ministries that are each led by a minister or three in the case of the Ministry of Law. The following are the nations that currently fill these positions:

Legislature

The General Assembly is the legislative body for the government of The Leftist Assembly. It consists of nine members, including the Secretary and the heads of all five ministries, and laws and amendments may be proposed by any member. For a bill to be passed, it requires five votes in favour with the endorsement of the Secretary or seven votes in favour without the endorsement of the Secretary. Each position is elected using the alternative voting system. Terms last for 3 months and elections begin at the end of their every third month coinciding with March, June, September and December.

Military

The Leftist Defence Force, often abbreviated to the LDF, is the gameplay military force of The Leftist Assembly. The organisation is tasked with defending allied leftist regions and invading fascist and capitalist regions within the NationStates community. The current force is led by Field Marshal The Final Horseman.
