Mission Statement

1. The goal of the Hanseatic Frontier Corporation (HansaCorp) will be to facilitate the construction and establishment of a corporate union of free and independent space ports & stations.
2. Upon establishment, this union will work towards becoming the dominant trading body in all areas it operates in. The union will provide a safe haven for all free entities seeking asylum and independence from the large and tyrannical empires of the universe.
3. The means with which we will pursue our goals will be outlined in the articles below.

Article One – Government

Spaceports are the stations and their outlying areas of operations.

1. Each station will be founded under a separate charter to be approved by The HansaCorp Diet. However, each station must abide by the rules and vision of the Diet.
2. If a need for a station is identified, a charter will be granted by the Diet to an exceptional member who will assume initial directorship of the station. The process for selection future directors and officers will be left to the terms in that station’s charter. The director of each station may change the station’s charter, if the change is approved by the Diet.
3. Each station will have a surrounding area of operation, which they will be required to man and maintain for the interest of the union.

The Diet is the governing body in union wide matters.

1. The Diet’s powers include setting the vision for the company and making all accompanying charter changes, choosing the President, granting station-charters, overseeing union-wide operations, and representing the union diplomatically.
2. The Diet is composed of the inalienable union founders as well as chartering members. Chartering members are those members who have made outstanding time and effort contributions to the union and are voted onto the diet by the founders. Diet members may be removed from their positions by a vote from the founders.

Overarching personnel are positions consistent across the whole union.
