Law of Khem
- We the Most Pure of the People as the rightful rulers of Khem demand the right to govern Khem as we see fit as is our right by birth and Wisdom.
- Only a member of the Most Pure of the People has such authority as such to rule Khem. A member of the Most Pure can only be one who is of the People, whom is deemed to be of pure blood on both sides for seven generations as determined by the Record and Law of the People's Glorious Library.
- Whoever has no citizenship or property status is to be able to live in Khem only as a guest, and must be under the authority of legislation for foreigners.
- The right to determine matters concerning administration and law belongs only to the People. Therefore we demand that every public office, of any sort whatsoever, whether in Council, the Military or Land Ownership, be filled only by those of the People.
- The first obligation of every citizen must be to work physically, creatively and scientifically toward the glorious progress of the People. The activity of individuals is not to counteract the interests or the Will of the Most Pure, but must have its result within the framework of the Law and Unity for the benefit of Khem and the People whether it is culture, technology or any other works.
- We demand the nationalization of infrastructure and related industry for the benefit of the People. Only the People's Glorious Library may give permission and license to operate as a private corporation. All small business shall remain in its owners possession provided they are of the blood and pay their yearly tithes.
- We demand a land formed to our needs and by our Will for the purpose of advancement of Truth, Beauty and the prosperity of the People who live by Wisdom, Law and Purity.
- We demand righteous war without consideration against those whose activity is injurious to the general interest of the People. Common national criminals, thieves, murderers and so forth are to be punished immediately with death, without consideration of confession or race.
- We demand the maintenance and funding of the People's Shining Army. Soldiers in this army shall come from the ranks of the People. Soldiers will be conscripted upon reaching the age of majority unless said youth is furthering their studies within the People's Glorious Library.
- The good of the People before the good of any individual.
- For the execution of all of this we demand the formation of a strong central power in Khem.
- Unlimited authority of the Alkahest over the whole of the People's Shining Army. Unlimited authority of the Agathos Daimon over the whole of the People's Glorious Library, Khem and its organizations in general.
- The forming of state and profession chambers for the execution of the Law by the People's Glorious Library.
