The RainFall Union, also referred to as Union of Raingate and Frostfall, is a Politico-economic union consisting of the Principality of Raingate and the Principality of Frostfall. The Union's main goal is to "draw closer the relations between the principalities and co-ordinate collaboration between them, to safeguard their independence and sovereignty, and to consider in a general way the affairs and interests of each nation".
Each member nation retains its own sovereignty and international personality, meaning that Raingate and Frostfall are still fully responsible for their own internal affairs and external relations. The Union cannot itself claim representation in other international organisations or overrule legislation or government decisions of its member states, except in cases specified by the Union Treaty. As such, the Union mostly resembles a supranational confederation on the same level as the Outernatian Union.
Prince Louis Tomlinson and Prince Zayn Malik of Raingate and Frostfall respectively, both lead the Union in a collaborative fashion and are both responsible and liable for Union matters.
Goals and purpose
The main goal of the union was "to achieve an order of peace and justice, to promote their solidarity, to strengthen their collaboration, and to defend their sovereignty, their territorial integrity, and their independence". The Union Act then defines eight essential purposes:
- To strengthen the peace and security of the nations.
- To promote collaboration and mutual assistance on matters of common interest.
- To provide for common action on the part of those nations in the event of aggression.
- To seek the solution of political, judicial, and economic problems that may arise.
- To promote, by cooperative action, their economic, social, and cultural development.
- To promote and protect human and peoples' rights.
- To maintain close, beneficial co-operation with existing international organisations with similar aims and purpose
