Internal Security Decree

The Internal Security Decree was a Decree of the Law issued by Terran Chancellor Luigi Fox (using the powers granted to him by the Enabling Act of 6 P.T.) in the year 8 P.T. after Senator Mora and his "Republican Society" Group carried out the failed January Revolution.

Background
After the resignation of Chancellor George The Sovereign in 5 P.T., Vice-chancellor Fox took his title with the support of George's Terran Unity and the Foxite National Renovation. Immediately, he began to push for reforms that would grant him more power, such as the Enabling Act of 6 P.T., which gave the Chancellor the power to pass laws without congressional approval, and the Internal Security Act of 7 P.T., which gave him the power to overrule Provincial Governors.

Having many clashes with the Chancellor in congress, Senator Antonio Mora of the Radical Party was removed from his position by Fox, this prompted the politician to gather sympathetic units from the Terran Defence Force. With his new found allies, Mora and the "Republican Society" attempted to depose Fox by the January Revolution plan. Having failed, Mora managed to escape the Capitol Guard Force and the Chancellor planned for an announcement the next day.

Issuing of the Internal Security Decree
On the 6th of January, 8 P.T., Chancellor Luigi Fox convened the Terran Congress to the damaged Congress Building on Terra City. He began his speech by condeming Mora's attack and adressing the Capitol Guard Force as the saviors of the Republic. Fox then proceeded to announce that, until further notice, the Terran Congress would be dissolved until the Terran Security Bureau rooted out all of Mora's supporters.

Then, the Chancellor announced what would become the infamous Internal Security Decree, he outlawed the Radical and Socialist Parties (who's present members were arrested by TDF soldiers) and prevented any of its members to meet. After the Decree, he concluded his speech by saying dissidents will not bend Fox's rule.

Tribune Emilio Mola of the 1st Cohort and General Winston Haig of the 1st Army, who were both standing by Fox announced Martial Law be declared in the Catalonia Province.

Aftermath
Following the arrest of the Radical and Socialist Party members, many of the politicians of Bordeaux departed to New Drachensburg while some others who weren't captured by the TDF joined Mora's secret rebellion. A year later, the Great Anarchy would detonate causing the secession of the German Secret Council and the Eastern Provinces led by Mora.
