Republic Civic Readiness Accord (RCRA)

Enacted by Presidential Decree, Wendell’s Diary Year 1

Preamble

In recognition that every citizen holds unique gifts vital to the flourishing of the Republic,
and in foresight of moments when destiny may call upon the few to serve the many,
we establish this Accord to preserve peace, purpose, and the enduring freedom of all.

    • Identify mission needs,
    • Assess citizen suitability,
    • Issue summons with Presidential consent when necessary.

Closing Declaration
