Declaration of Independence

We the children, in order to form a nation of our vision, hereby establish our nation of Fidelitas, which means "Loyalty". We believe as our own independent nation that we can create a utopian society better than that of the United States of America. We believe that it is our duty to establish our utopian nation for our right of freedom and independence.

We have based our form of ruling government in Fidelitas on the philosophy of Locke and Hobbes. Hobbes believed in ruling through fear, and Locke believed that everyone should have equal rights. We will have our government set up as a direct democracy in the strong belief that this will be the best form of government.

Our freedoms will be based on that of the wolves, meaning that everyone has a part in the pack and in this utopia. We will include freedoms of property, speech, religion, assembly, petition, and voting. We believe that these freedoms will create a society ruled with peace, equality, and unity.

We believe that we can create a society that is better than the modern U.S.A. for several reasons. We believe that the current U.S.A. does not have a constitutional republic is not the best way of having a set up government. We believe that by giving the people of our nation the freedom and right to have their own laws voted on by them, the people will be more alert about and involved in the government and therefore making the government the best system for the people, by the people.

Journal Entry #1

Dear Journal,

Today is Saturday and the first thing I did in my day was; I got up and had breakfast with my family, then we decided to go to the ocean and swam and surfed for three hours. Then we took a break and had a picnic lunch that my dad packed, (hotdogs and hamburgers). After that we went back to the house and I talked to some of my friends online and then watched my favorite show on TV. When that was over I got out some homework that I had to do for Monday morning and I worked on that for about an hour or so, after I got bored with that I went outside and played with our dog Max. Max likes to play fetch so I threw sticks for him until he got too tired. Max went to sleep under a tree and then I went inside and made chocolate chip cookies. While the cookies were in the oven I playes a video game with my brother...I beat him and then he cried so I gave him a cookie...he stopped after that. Then we had roast beef for dinner with mashed potatoes, with my cookies for dessert. Then I logged back online and chatted with my friends some more and found out that we have a test on Monday that I didn't know about, so I did what I always do and put it off until tomorrow night. After my friend made me angry I logged off and picked up my book that I checked out from the library weeks ago and never got around to reading, and I read that for about half an hour when I started to get sleepy, so basically the next thing I did was take a quick shower, brushed my teeth, and then climbed into bed and wrote this, wow my day was not that interesting.
