09 – How to Build an Assembly | Section 9: Assembly Basics

How to Build an Assembly – Section 9: Assembly Basics provides a comprehensive overview of what a lawful American State Assembly is, how it functions, and how members are expected to participate. This section explains who is eligible to join, the differences between State Assemblies and District or Municipal Assemblies, and why there can be only one lawful Assembly per State recognized by the Federation. It outlines the four pillars of a functioning Assembly—General, International Business, Jural, and Militia—and clarifies the roles, duties, and behavioral expectations of members. This section also addresses meeting procedures, elections, vetting of officers, community discipline, and the importance of maintaining peace, order, and transparency while guarding against infiltration and disruption. Together, these fundamentals establish the practical and ethical framework necessary for building and sustaining a lawful, self-governing State Assembly.
