Form Vermonter Nation

Here in the lush fertile lands of the American Northwest and free from the colonial powers of the Old World, we find ourselves capable of cutting all ties with our old identity and drafting a constitution that promises to protect the rights of citizens and landowners. We will form a new nation on the principles of freedom and unity.
