The '''Honorary Citizenship (Kaiser Mondo) Act, 1751''' is a proposed Act of the [[Cortes Federales]] that would grant honorary New Alexandrian citizenship to Kaiser [[Mondo|Mondo Etzeterra]] of the [[Mondosphere]]. The bill was jointly introduced on 15.III.{{AN|1751}} by Deputy [[Daniel Valkory, Jr.]] of the [[Federal Humanist Party]] and Deputy [[Isabela Restrepo-Fuentes]] of the [[Democratic Socialist Party of Nouvelle Alexandrie|Democratic Socialist Party]], both representing the [[Cárdenas|Federal Capital District]].

The bipartisan measure reflects the widespread affection for Kaiser Mondo among New Alexandrians across the political spectrum. This affection dates back to the [[State Visit of Mondo Etzeterra to Nouvelle Alexandrie|1732 state visit]] that triggered the cultural phenomenon known as [[Mondomania]], and has only grown through his frequent subsequent visits to the Federation, his personal engagement with citizens, and his embrace of New Alexandrian culture. Many New Alexandrians have come to regard Kaiser Mondo as an "adopted New Alexandrian" (''Alexandrien d'adoption'').
The measure passed with overwhelming bipartisan support in both chambers of the [[Cortes Federales of Nouvelle Alexandrie|Cortes Federales]]. The [[Federal Assembly of Nouvelle Alexandrie|Federal Assembly]] approved the bill on 25.IV.{{AN|1751}} by a vote of 733 to 2 with 14 abstentions. The [[Chamber of Peers of Nouvelle Alexandrie|Chamber of Peers]] passed the measure unanimously on 2.V.{{AN|1751}}. King [[Sinchi Roca II]] granted Royal Assent on 5.V.{{AN|1751}}.

The Kaiser's charm captured the attention of New Alexandrian media.

The [[University of Punta Santiago]] subsequently established a "Mondology" research department, and annual "Mondo-inspired" cake baking competitions became a regular feature in culinary schools throughout the Federation.

[[12th Cortes Federales]]

The Honorary Citizenship (Kaiser Mondo) Act, 1751 is an Act of the Cortes Federales that grants honorary New Alexandrian citizenship to Kaiser Mondo Etzeterra of the Mondosphere. The bill was jointly introduced on 15.III.1751 AN by Deputy Daniel Valkory, Jr. of the Federal Humanist Party and Deputy Isabela Restrepo-Fuentes of the Democratic Socialist Party, both representing the Federal Capital District.

The measure passed with overwhelming bipartisan support in both chambers of the Cortes Federales. The Federal Assembly approved the bill on 25.IV.1751 AN by a vote of 733 to 2 with 14 abstentions. The Chamber of Peers passed the measure unanimously on 2.V.1751 AN. King Sinchi Roca II granted Royal Assent on 5.V.1751 AN.

The cross-party enthusiasm for the legislation reflects the widespread affection for Kaiser Mondo among New Alexandrians across the political spectrum. This affection dates back to the 1732 state visit that triggered the cultural phenomenon known as Mondomania, and has only grown through his frequent subsequent visits to the Federation, his personal engagement with citizens, and his embrace of New Alexandrian culture. Many New Alexandrians have come to regard Kaiser Mondo as an "adopted New Alexandrian" (Alexandrien d'adoption).

Background

See also: Mondomania

Kaiser Mondo Etzeterra's relationship with Nouvelle Alexandrie began with his historic state visit between 1.XV.1732 AN and 6.XV.1732 AN. Hosted by King Sinchi Roca and Premier Marissa Santini, the visit took the Kaiser to Cárdenas, Parap, and Hato Rey. The visit sparked Mondomania, an unprecedented wave of public fascination that saw an estimated 678,000 people line the streets of Punta Santiago alone. Streets were decorated with banners bearing the Kaiser's image, bakeries offered special "Mondo Cakes" featuring his distinctive bow tie motif, and viewing parties for televised events were held in public squares across all twelve Regions.

The Kaiser's charm captured the attention of New Alexandrian media. Popular talk show host Isabella Valentina featured Kaiser Mondo in her "Fashion Police" segment, praising his signature bow tie as "diplomatic chic" and noting his well-known fondness for cake. The University of Punta Santiago subsequently established a "Mondology" research department, and annual "Mondo-inspired" cake baking competitions became a regular feature in culinary schools throughout the Federation.

Kaiser Mondo has returned to Nouvelle Alexandrie numerous times since 1732 AN. He attended the royal wedding of Crown Princess Sayari in 1750 AN, leading the Mondosphere delegation. During that visit, he personally bestowed the Order of Saint Lazarus upon radio host Marisol Valdés in recognition of her charitable work with orphaned children through her Fundación Esperanza Viva.[1] The Kaiser has also embraced popular New Alexandrian cultural moments, such as his attendance of Aurelio Palacios' farewell concert in 1751 AN[2] and publicly declaring his participation in the "Dance Mom" phenomenon of 1744 AN with the memorable tweet "I am wiggling! #DanceMom".[3]

The bill's sponsors, Deputy Valkory and Deputy Restrepo-Fuentes, represent the two parties that hold seats in the Federal Capital District following the 1749 general election. Their bipartisan introduction reflected the cross-party appeal of the measure.

Key provisions

The Act contains three main parts:

  • Part I (General Provisions) establishes the citation of the Act and sets forth the findings of the Cortes Federales regarding Kaiser Mondo's affection for Nouvelle Alexandrie, his numerous visits, his personal honours bestowed upon New Alexandrian citizens, and his embrace of New Alexandrian culture.
  • Part II (Grant of Honorary Citizenship) confers honorary citizenship upon Kaiser Mondo Etzeterra. The honorary citizenship is expressly symbolic and does not grant any rights to vote, hold public office, or claim entitlements from the public treasury. The Kaiser is entitled to style himself as an Honorary Citizen of Nouvelle Alexandrie and received a certificate signed by H.M. the King and the President of the Government.
  • Part III (Final Provisions) provides for commencement upon Royal Assent and includes a standard severability clause.
