RHETRA
The Spartan Constitution, or Politeia, refers to the government and laws of the Dorian city-state of Sparta from the time of Lycurgus, the lawgiver.
Lycurgus was the lawgiver of Sparta that lived between IX (9th) and VIII (8th) century B C. who established the military-oriented reformation of Spartan society
Reforms introduced by Lycurgus were in the form of a Rhetra. The definition of Rhetra is "Law" or "Maxim".
Anax Kopsidas of the Kingdom of Ellada-Rome is the lawgiver of the Kingdom of Ellada-Rome and with the consent of the Hellenic and European people will reintroduce The Great Rhetra for the Kingdom of Ellada-Rome.
Absolute monarchy
If the people of Ellada and Europe wish to end the illegitimate, counterfeit Semitic Empire's subjugation of them, they will have to withdraw their consent for the illegitimate, counterfeit Semitic Empire, and redirect their approval to the legitimate Anax of Rome, i.e., Kopsidas, the Anax of Ellada-Rome.
Under the current arrangement, natural resources belonging to the people of Europe are being swindled right from under their noses. A rampaging unsustainable and unpayable debt has been imposed on the people of Europe along with very high taxation rates. Currently, permission to be taxed is granted each time a parliament is elected.
After the people of Europe have withdrawn their consent and have resigned from the European Corporation, i.e., the current EU (European Union), the people will peaceably move from the European Corporation under an illegitimate, counterfeit Semitic Empire to a legitimate Hellenic/Roman Monarchy free from Semitic influence and deception. Kopsidas will reign as the legitimate Anax of the Kingdom of Rome exercising unlimited political power over the European continent and its people. The autocratic powers of the Anax will be temporary. After which, the Anax of Rome will recreate the conditions for the Great Rhetra. The Kingdom of Rome will then move from an Absolute Monarchy to The Great Rhetra and a new European Union (see diagram below).
Under Divine Law, Inherent Natural Law, the Laws of the Land, Kopsidas, the legitimate Anax of Rome, will render all contracts between European citizens, the current European Corporation and the illegitimate, counterfeit Semitic Empire null and void. (See Seisachtheia and Kopsidas pages)
Kopsidas, the legitimate Anax of Rome has the Divine authority to change all Laws including the laws of the Papacy.
REFERENDUM
A referendum will be held in the Kingdom of Ellada (Ελλάδα) and across Europe in a peaceful and civilised manner.

ANTISEMITISM
According to Wikipedia, antisemitism is hostility to, prejudice, or discrimination against Semites. A person who holds such positions is called an antisemite. Antisemitism is considered to be a form of racism.
The views expressed on this website concerning the Semites are not antisemitic or racist.

We all must try and help the Semites give up their evil, violent and deceptive ways. The only way forward for all on earth is through unity and love for one another.
TITLES OF NOBILITY
Titles of nobility are not conferred nor recognised in Semites in the Hellenic-Roman politeia.
Semites currently holding titles of nobility or distinction will not be recognised in the Hellenic-Roman politeia.
DEFINING POLITEIA
Politeia is a natural phenomenon. The Politeia is a partnership of men. women and citizens. It refers to the institutions and laws of the land. It is a composite thing which is made up of many parts and has a collection of citizens. Rhetra defines the powers of the various groups and individuals living and interacting with the sovereign politeia within the Kingdom of Ellada-Rome. The Kingdom of the Ellada-Rome is the kingdom of God (βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ). The whole order of social and political relationships in a polis. It includes 'the inherent natural liberties of men and women to a 'form of assembly, sovereign institutions and their sovereign divine posts under the jurisdiction of Divine and Natural Law. Full, free citizens of the politeia vote and rule as a whole in the interests of all full, free citizens, as opposed to democratia (democracy) in which the consent of the governed (legal citizens) act and legislate in their own interest under positive laws.
WHAT WAS A CITIZEN IN ANCIENT ATHENS
Who were the Citizens in Ancient Athens?
Those whose parents were born in ancient Athens were citizens of the Athenian politeia. The males became citizens after finishing their military service at age 20, and could vote.
The females could not participate in Athenian democracy.
Slaves were those people who were owned by the citizens of Athens or the city-state. Many were those who were taken prisoners, while their city-state was under attack by the Athenians. Slaves could never become citizens of the Athenian politeia.
The Athenian politeia or city-state, could be governed by a monarch, an aristocracy (free citizens,i.e., never slaves), or by a democracy, a form of government where the free citizens of the politeia created the laws.
Metics were those who lived in Athens, but were born outside of the city-state. Males and Females could not own land nor become a citizen of the politeia.
WHAT IS A CITIZEN in the CURRENT EUROPEAN UNION
What does "citizen" mean in the current European Union? A European citizen is a natural person who acts through a legal title, i.e., their name. When a natural person acts through a legal title, i.e., their name, the person moves their jurisdiction to Positive law. The European Union corporation recognizes a person by their title. When a person acts through a legal title, i.e., their name, the regime, i.e, the current European Union does not recognize the natural person as a natural person with Inherent Liberties but rather the legal entity with legal rights.
A European citizen is an employee of the current European corporation known as the European Union.
Citizens are entitled to all the legal rights and privileges granted by a corporation under the Holy Roman Empire, i.e., the illegitimate Semitic Empire. A citizen is obligated to obey statutory (Positive laws) of the corporation and is required to fulfill duties as called upon.
Corporations go by the same name as a country, for example, the country Greece, the corporation GREECE. The country Italy, the corporation ITALY. The country Germany, the corporation GERMANY, etc. The country Greece has a corporation that goes by the same title and operates within defined borders. A Greek citizen, i.e., the employee of the corporation GREECE pays taxes to the corporation GREECE. A portion of taxes goes to provide the services to run the corporation but a portion goes to the executives and shareholders of the company as profit. The interest paid on loans is profit.
The European Union, therefore, is an amalgamation of companies which delivers profits to its shareholders.
Aristocrats of the Holy Roman Empire, i.e., the illegitimate Semitic Empire acquired a Royal Charter which allowed them to create and run a corporation within the realm of the Holy Roman Empire, i,e. the illegitimate Semitic Empire.
Statutory laws are enacted by the members of a parliament. The members of a parliament are elected by the employees of the company, i.e., citizens. The members of a parliament are the executors and fiduciaries of the corporation and must swear an oath and abide by a constitution. The constitution is always written by members and on behalf of the Holy Roman Empire, i,e. the illegitimate Semitic Empire. .
Constitutions are a Trust. The Trust involves the church/ecclesa/apella and the people. The Semites are claiming that the are the church/ecclesia/apella, i.e., the free people of the politiea and the non-Semites are the slaves.
A Trust is an arrangement whereby a person (a trustee) holds property as its nominal owner for the good of one or more beneficiaries. It is claimed that all property is own by the illegitimate Semitic Holy Roman Empire. (Unam Sanctum)
Parliaments are also corporations.
The corporations also profit by selling a country's natural resources. They do this by fooling the people into selling their Inherent Natural Rights to the natural resources in exchange for legal rights. After the citizens have sold their inherent rights to the natural resources they then pay exorbitant prices for energy produced by the natural resources.
It must be said that the employees (citizens) of the current European Union are not aware that their Inherent Natural Liberties have been sold.
Without knowing it, parents of a newly born child sell all the child's Inherent Natural Liberties to all the natural resources, i.e., oil, gold, silver, etc, to the corporation in exchange for legal rights and privileges. This is done when a child is born and a legal title is issued to a newly born baby by a birth registry. The child enters into a contract with the corporation. Legal Rights and privileges include the entitlements to welfare, for example, pensions, unemployment benefits, public schools, public health etc. The infant joins the Welfare State as an employee of a corporation.
Governments must borrow money from the corporations central banking regime, at interest. The Interest imposed on money lending is never created, and therefore always remains. The interest can never be repaid because it was never created in the first place, keeping the people in a state of perpetual enslavement, i.e., debt slaves.
Citizens are considered the property of the Holy Roman Empire, i.e., the illegitimate Semitic Empire.
A definition of the word corporation:
- Corporation - a group of people elected to govern a city, town, or borough. "the City of London Corporation." Synonyms: council, town council, municipal authority, civic authority; authorities.
Definition 2. Corporation:
- 1. Firm that meets certain legal requirements to be recognized as having a legal existence, as an entity separate and distinct from its owners. Corporations are owned by their stockholders (shareholders) who share in profits and losses generated through the firm's operations, and have three distinct characteristics (1) Legal existence: a firm can (like a person) buy, sell, own, enter into a contract, and sue other persons and firms, and be sued by them. It can do good and be rewarded, and can commit offence and be punished. (2) Limited liability: a firm and its owners are limited in their liability to the creditors and other obligors only up to the resources of the firm, unless the owners give personal-guaranties. 3) Continuity of existence: a firm can live beyond the life spans and capacity of its owners, because its ownership can be transferred through a sale or gift of shares.
The current European Union corporation, under the Sovereignty of the Pope and the Queen of Great Britain is a profitable institution and that's why it has debt and debt slaves.
the new european union
Unlike the current European Union, the new European Union under the Sovereignty of Anax Kopsidas will be a non profitable institution and, therefore, will be "Debt Free."
POLITEIA
Our form of Politeia does not enter into rivalry with the institutions of others.
The Hellenic-Roman-European Politeia will be free from Semitic debt, deception and influence.
Rome was was the location of the first Hellenic-Roman politeia. Constantinople was the location of the second Hellenic-Roman politeia.
The location for the third Hellenic-Roman Politeia will be centered in the City of Athens, Hellas.
Our Politeia is the lawful continuation of the Spartan, Athenian, and Hellenic-Roman politeia.
The politeia will consist of a good blend of monarchy, oligarchy and democracy.
Our laws are not made for men and women to become the most prosperous but are laws for men and women to become the most virtuous, and its objective is a full and independent life.

POSITIVE LAW
Positive laws (Latin: ius positum) are human-made laws that oblige or specify an action. It also describes the establishment of specific rights for an individual or group. Etymologically, the name derives from the verb to posit.

APELLA
The Apella (Hellenic: Ἀπέλλα), corresponds to the Ecclesia.
The ecclesia (free citizens) was the principal assembly of the democracy of ancient Athens.
The word Apellas is derived from the Doric word apella (ἀπέλλα), which originally meant wall.
The Apella is the popular deliberative assembly, open to all male and female full, free citizens with two years of military service. Full, free citizens can participate in the Apella, regardless of class. The assembly will be responsible for electing officials. It will handle nominating and electing judges, magistrates. Along with the Gerousia, it will have the final say on legislation and the right to call magistrates to account after their year of office.
The Apella will meet at the beginning of every month during the full moon. The agenda for the Apella will be set by the Gerousia, the popular council.
The meeting place for the Apella will be in the building known as the Skias. The Skias building is to be constructed in the new Sovereign Politeia of Europe, Omonia Square, Athens.
Members of the Apella cannot serve in the new European Parliament or vote in the European Parliament elections (just as the Anax does not vote); however, they are permitted to sit in the chamber of the new European Parliament during debates.
The Apella along with the Gerousia has the power to delay or reject legislation proposed by the European parliament.
Members of the Apella are elected by the Gerousia and not from the population at large.
GEROUSIA

Each member state will contribute one member.
The Gerousia will consist of 28 members and one Anax.

the european parliament
A new European Parliament building will be built in Athens.
The European Parliament (EP) will be a parliamentary institution of the New European Union (EU) that is directly elected by EU citizens aged 20 or older. Together with the Apella and Gerousia exercises the legislative function of the EU. The European Parliament will compose of 840 members (MEPs). Each country will have 10 members. 28 countries with 10 members totals 840 members.
The new European Parliament is a democratically elected chamber with elections held at least every four years. The new European Parliament will meet in the newly constructed Parliament building situated in the new Sovereign Politeia of Europe, Omonia Square Athens.

THE AGOGE
The agoge is the rigorous education and training regimen mandated for all male and female full, free citizens, except for the firstborn son in the ruling house of Kopsidas.
The training will involve learning stealth, cultivating loyalty to the group, military training (e.g. pain tolerance), hunting, dancing, singing and social (communicating) preparation.
The aim of the system is to produce physically and morally strong males and females to serve in the agoge.
usury
Aristotle, one of the fathers of Western thought, wrote in his 350 B.C. work, Politics, in Book One, Part X, that usury is the lending of money at interest:
- “The most hated sort, and with the greatest reason, is usury, which makes a gain out of money itself, and not from the natural object of it. For money was intended to be used in exchange, but not to increase at interest. And this term interest, which means the birth of money from money, is applied to the breeding of money because the offspring resembles the parent. Wherefore of all modes of getting wealth this is the most unnatural.”
Today, usury has been taken to mean the lending of money at some arbitrary “exorbitant” rate of interest. Traditionally, however, it has been viewed as the lending of money at any interest rate.
Usury will be outlawed in the the new European Union.
The Royal TREASURY
A new Treasury will be constructed in the new Sovereign Politeia of Eurpope, Omonia Square, Athens.
Money is not a measure of value in our economy. Money is a vehicle which is used as a system of credit which is necessary to organize certain kinds of projects that are beneficial to society as a whole. That is the real meaning of money in our economy. The monetary system is a convenient way of organizing exchanges. We don't have a money economy but rather a physical economy. Money is necessary for the economy, but it's not the purpose of the economy. Money is a means of organizing the efforts of an economy. The value of what is produced is the real value, not in a money value but rather a physical value. Physical economy is the real economy.
The primary objective of the Royal Treasury is to record and control the quantity of money in the economy. The monetary policy of the Royal Treasury is to maintain price stability and ensure economic growth. The Royal Treasury does not borrow money or credit, it creates it using the Royal Mint.
Once Treasury has agreed to extend new money and credit into the economy, new money is monetized by the Hellenic World bank and recorded by Treasury and allocated to state banks throughout the Country. The physical money is minted at the Royal Mint. The public credit is loaned out to the population for productive investment. Thus the real banking moral functions are preserved, and only corruption and the gambling banking system is shut down.
The Royal Treasury will function as a sovereign institution within the politeia and will issue Public Money consisting of coin, banks notes and electronic money and credit. Coins and banknotes will be made from a mixture of materials and will be called Euro, after the ancient Queen of Crete, Europa. Sovereign money and credit are meant to encourage self-sufficiency for all citizens. The currency will be created at the Royal Mint and controlled by the Royal Treasury subject to the Law of the Land. Borrowing at interest from foreign financial institutions will be outlawed and punishable by death.
The money supply will be encrypted with nano technology in order to prevent counterfeiting. Money encryption will enable the Treasury to control the money supply which will control inflation, deflation or stagflation.
The money supply will increase or decrease dependent on population growth and productivity.
Governors of the Royal Treasury will be elected by lot by the Gerousia and will be held accountable by the Apella.
A tax system will be used to control the quantity of money in the financial system. The tax system will help protect against inflation in the event of an oversupply of liquidity.
All Citizens are the beneficiaries of all the tax receipts.
The Royal Treasury will collect tax revenues and use tax revenues to loan out to all citizens (without interest), for the productive investment of the economy.
Tariffs on some imported goods will be levied to protect manufacturers, crop growers, and farmers.
The Royal Treasury building will be constructed in the new Sovereign Politeia of Europe.
THE ROYAL MINT
The Banknote Printing Works or Royal Mint is to print banknotes (encrypted paper bills) for the Treasury.
The Royal Mint will be equipped with state-of-the-art machinery for the manufacturing of coin dies and the striking of legal tender coins, commemorative and collectors' coins, medals, etc.
The Banknote Printing Works or Royal Mint building will be constructed in the new Sovereign Politeia of Europe, Omonia Square, Athens.
THE HELLENIC WORLD BANK
Once the Treasury has agreed to extend the amount of new money and credit into the economy, the treasury records and allocates the new money and credit to the central bank, the HELLENIC WORLD BANK. The public credit through loans finds it's way to the population for productive investment through state banks.
The new European parliament will borrow money on the credit of the Sovereign Politeia of Europe from the Hellenic World bank, at "no interest." Strict conditions will be imposed on the lending of money and credit from the treasury.
The practice of lending money i.e. usury is a convenient form of exchange, and not to increase at interest. Interest i.e. money born from money will be outlawed.
Fractional reserve banking by private financial institutions will also be outlawed. Government bonds will be outlawed.
The new Hellenic World Bank will be built and located in the Sovereign Politeia of Europe located in Omonia Square, Athens.
PROPERTY
There is one system of owning property. Members of the Apella and Gerousia will act in the capacity of Grantor and will own some property in common, and some property privately. They are not subject to property tax.
European Citizens obtain the legal right to own property. They will not be subject to property tax.
EPHORs
The ephors are also sovereign leaders of the politeia and share power with the Anax of Ellada, and the Apella.
28 ephors will be elected annually from each country, who "swear on behalf of Sovereign Politeia of Europe and the rule of law".
The ephors are chosen by popular election from the whole body of citizens.
The well-educated and virtuous will be eligible for election.
The ephors provide oversight to the Anax of Ellada.
LOCHOS
The lochos is a tactical sub-unit of the army.
CORRUPTION
The politeia must be subject to law, and a well-functioning politeia cannot, of course, exist without respect for the rule of law
Dishonest or fraudulent conduct involving tyranny, treason, embezzlement, bribery and nepotism by those in power will be seriously dealt with.
Severe cases of corruption will incur the punishment of execution. Lesser crimes will incur the punishment of life incarceration.
The immediate family of a perpetrator will also be held accountable.
LAW OF THE LAND
- No Freeman (full free citizen) shall be taken or imprisoned, or be disseised of his Freehold, or Liberties, or free Customs, or be outlawed, or exiled, or any other wise destroyed; nor will We not pass upon him, nor condemn him, but by lawful judgment of his Peers, or by the Law of the Land.
The Law of the Land will be available on this website in due course.
