The United Holy Kingdom of Beaulosagñe and the Knights Templar of the Holy Grail
The United Holy Kingdom of Beaulosagñe and the Knights Templar of the Holy Grail, or simply Templar Kingdom or Beaulosagñe is an autonomus territorial nation which is a sovereign microstate but is more commonly referred to as a micronation by external observers. Founded in 1980 first as a dream, which generally became a desire to become a real independent state. Beaulosagñe is a Christian nation that has Jesvs Christ as head of state. The nation is ruled as an absolute theocratic monarchy.
Beaulosagñe is located on the Iberian Peninsula and is a medieval type of kingdom in a modern world. It is a nation that thinks green and is anti-nuclear. It is also a nation where the Knights Templar are real knights and have a nation of their own, where they are still guardians of the Holy Grail. The Templar Kingdom does not have a constitution but it has a Carta Magnifica (a set of constitutional laws laid down by God). It is known as the only templar kingdom in the world.
Etymology
Beaulosagñe's oldest spelling of it's name is: Bolozanje. The nation's name is based on two words: Beau(lo) = Beautiful and Zan[d](je) = Land and or sand. Therefore Beaulosagñe means both beautiful land or holy land. The United Holy Kingdom of Beaulosagñe and the Knights Templar of the Holy Grail is also known just as Beaulosagñe. Other names used for the Kingdom are: Grail Kingdom and Templar Kingdom. The nation is called the Templar Kingdom because it's military is made up of templars, who still follow the knight's code of honour.
History

The Kingdom intends to set up a new and fair banking system in the near future and build or restore an old castle for templar Knight use.
Government and Politics
The United Holy Kingdom is an absolute theocratic monarchy with Jesvs Christ as its head of state. The state maintains an earthly representative, a prince whose title is "Hand of the King". The Hand is assisted by twelve Paladins (minsters) who are chosen by the Hand for their capable skills. The Paladins serve the Hand for life unless, the Hand re-asigns them. There is no parliament and there are no elections. Paladins and all other necessary officials are appointed by the Hand. The second in command is the Arch-Duke. He would come to power if the Hand suddenly would fall ill. The Templar Kingdom considers itself a legitamate sovereign state by the authority of Christ. The government exist to serve the nation and not the nation to serve the government. The Carta Magnifica also states that kingdom is humanitarian, and is not out on making a profit. It serves God, Christ, and it neighbour, not itself. The Templar Kingdom is a fierce adversary of globalism / one world goverment.
Constitution and Templar Canon
The basis of law or constitution of the Templar Kingdom is the Templar Cannon. The Templar Cannon is made up of two books, the Templar Codex and Carta Magnifica. These books form the non changeable law of the land. The constitution states new laws are drafted by the Grand Council (parliament), but voted into law by all citizens, new laws cannot at any time make parts of the Carta Magnifica obsolete. All Grand Council (parliament) members (36) have one vote in the process just as every citizen does. If a law is rejected, it has to be redrafted.
The Templar Canon is the complete 'constitution' which includes the Carta Magnifica and Templar Codex together. The Carta Magnifica is the first two books that forms the 'constitution' of the Templar Kingdom. The Carta is comprised of various sections dictating the rights and obligations of it's citizens, of 'parliament', and of his royal highness the prince. The Templar Codex is the second book of the Canon which includes all religious laws which aren't included in the Carta Magnifica. No outside law or international law can change, alter or influence any laws within the Codex and Carta Magnifica.
Hand of the King
The Hand of the King is the representative of King Christ on Earth. His office is that of uniting all Templar orders into one for the second comming of Christ. The Hand is Prince of the Templar Kingdom, since Christ is the King of the Kingdom. The Hand of the King, is head of state (DEX GRA REX), Grand-Master-Knight of the military order of Templar Knights and defender of the faith (FID DEF) of the Templar Church. The post of Hand of the King, Arch-Duke and that of Paladin are not hereditary, when the Hand abdicates, he chooses the new Hand of the king. The old Hand then stays prince regent until death. The Hand of the King is assisted by a council of 12 knights also called the Round Table of the Templar Council. If the Hand of the King dies before appointing a new Hand, then the 12 Paladins will elect one from among themselves, to be the next Hand. (In this process one can not vote for himself.) The Arch-Duke serves as vice-prince in the absence of the Hand (at the moment there is not Arch-Duke).
Foreign Affairs
The Templar Kingdom recognizes/ has foreign relations with over 100 microstates/ micronations.
Economy
Beaulosagñe's national currency is the Sovereign Templar Crown. The economy is based on the sales of stamps, coins, banknotes, T-shirts, calenders, books and nobility titles. In the near future, the kingdom plans to add a publishing house to their industry. Stores, offices, banks, government offices and facturies are closed on Lord's day.
Banc Templarii
The printing of new money falls directly under the authority of the Banc Templarii (the central bank of the Templar Kingdom.) no other bank has the right to print the money or to put it into circulation. The Sovereign Templar Crown can be bought (and be traded back in), but is not open for trade on the open market. The Sovereign Templar Crown is backed by silver.
Culture
The Templar Kingdom promotes the following ideologies of Green Thinking and Templarism. Green thinking is basically living a lifestyle without creating waste, less pollution in the air and water, and encourage an era of planting more trees. To reuse, reduce and recycle more. Templarism is a return to a less complicated lifestyle, of life without mobile phones, fax, computers, television, and the latest gadgets that make companies rich, but make people poor and less happy. Because happiness does not come from the to obtaining of more and more possessions. Citizens are also advised to use more handmade or local made products.
The Templars of old were a monk order of all male members and no doubt because of this, homosexual acts might have happened in their ranks, under a don't ask don't tell policy. For this reason, the kingdom is BGLT friendly and allows asylum seekers of the BGLT community (from hostile nations) into the Grail kingdom. The kingdom does not see being Gay and being Christian (at the same time) as a contradiction, but as qualities that can complement each other. Making a person more compasionate, caring and understanding of the plight a Gay or a Christian or a Gay-Christian goes through. BGLT couples are allowed to adopt children.
Micro-Ethnicity
The Templar Kingdom is unique and different, in its ethnicity, in that it's a Christian nation that has Christ as its king and that its army is Templar knights, who still hold to the knight's oath. It is also the only one country, based on the Knights Templar and medieval europe in general. The kingdom claims, being decendands from these heroic knights, through the 'disputed' Larmenius charther and claims to be the only true guardians of the Holy Grail. The hand of the king being the Grand-Master-Kinght (commader and chief) of the Templar army. A Templar Knight (within the Templar Kingdom) must own a sword, to be considered a knight. (With this sword, he is dubbed knight, after having fasted during the night of his wake.)
Also the Templar Kingdom is unique in it currency, it being devided in 12 pieces and is not a decimal system as all other nations.
The Templar Kingdom is also different in that it recommends it's citizen to dress in the Templar (medieval) clothing style and recommands to be as least possible, dependant on modren technology, like internet and mobilephones.
The Templar Kingdom is also sometimes called the "Protestant Vatican" or the "Iberian Vatican" (Depending on the view you are talking about; "religious afiliation" or "geographic location".) "Map-North" according to the Templar Kingdom is East (towards Jerusalem)
the Templar Kingdom is member of:
-League of Christian Micronations
-European Union of Micronations
-Union Iberica / Iberian Union
-Monarchist League.
