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 #3

Dear Journal,

Today I took the test, luckily they postponed the test until Tuesday due to Independence day, and I think that I failed, it was a really hard test about how Fidelitas was founded and the principals and rules that our society was based on. I think I got the questions on the wolf pack right because of the presentations yesterday, but I'm really not sure I could have been wrong. I always think that I fail the tests but usually I pull through and at least pass the test, maybe not with flying colors though, so I really really hope that will happen this time. I can't afford to mess up and fail a test I'm already teetering on the edge of failing, and my parents are not happy, on the bright side they can't just leave me in the middle of the ocean to be eaten by sharks, at least that option is illegal, but they might take away my cell phone and I really wouldn't enjoy that. I had lunch with my friends Vince, Polly, Hannah, and Colin; Colin was picking on me again and called me a flamingo because of my long legs, I don't really care if he calls me that, I think he likes me, so does Vince and Vince is Colin's best friend. I don't really like him but he's nice enough, after lunch we went back to class and then later on I had soccer practice. I went home and ate lasagna for dinner and talked to my parents for awhile and then worked on my math homework, that got old fast so I headed to bed early and crashed for the night.
