Citation Format
We recommend you cite all authorities, when possible, in the following formats, with hyperlinks embedded in the citation itself (e.g., A.P. 001). When relying on an authority to support an argument, the citation shall appear as a separate sentence or clause beginning with "See" (where applicable).

(a) Acts of Parliament
Format: A.P. [Number]
Example: The Legislative Branch Act defines the legislative process. See A.P. 001.

(b) Constitution
Format: K. A. Const. § [Roman Numeral] Art. [X]
Example: Parliament has legislative power. K.A. Const. § I Art. 3.1.

(c) Judicial Opinions or Other Rulings
Format: [Case Name] ([Mag./Ch.] [Year]) (e.g., Writ P.P. I (Ch. 2025)).
Example: The king can be held criminally liable. See Ayatha v. Rex, Case 6 (Ch. 2025)

(d) Other Sources
Format: [Source], [Identifier/Year]
Examples:
Our Relationship with the King and Constitutional Monarchy (ColonelKai, 2025)
Alexandrian Law Review, Article 2 (Ethamn, 2025)
StateCraft Discord (Smallfries, 2025)

(e) Subsequent References
(i) Use "id." when citing the same source consecutively.
(ii) Use "id. at [section]" to reference a different part of the immediately preceding source.
(iii) Repeat full citation if intervening citations exist.
Example: The power of legislating and managing the budget and finances are prescribed solely to the Parliament of Alexandria. See id. at § I Art. 1–2. These include spending and taxation policies. Id. Further, a constitutional responsibility of Parliament is to be a forum for debating and resolving national issues. Id. at Art. 2(9).
