I do have a question though, DC is in the Mideast so wouldn't it fall under Mideast law? If so I'll introduce an amendment to get that removed.
I do not believe that the Constitution treats DC as a part of the Mideast. Pursuant to Article I, the Senate has the power "To exercise exclusive legislation, in all cases whatsoever, over ...  the District of Columbia." Furthermore, all taxes "shall be uniform throughout the Regions of the Republic of Atlasia and the District of Columbia," again implying that D.C. is not a part of any region.

Article 4, Sections 1 and 2 make it clear that DC is a state in the Mideast Region and infer that DC must vote for the Mideast Governmen in Regional elections...
How so? Neither of them make any reference to DC.
