Published in Clark #3

BE IT ENACTED by the King, Cosa and Senäts in Ziu assembled that:

Any citizen who neither votes in any general election nor responds to any national census established by law for a period of two years, as calculated at any Election Deadline, shall be deemed to have renounced his citizenship.

In the absence of voluntary renunciation, Talossan citizenship is only lost upon the legal or physical decease of the citizen, confirmed to the satisfaction of the Chancery; or upon banishment by decision of the Uppermost Cort.
