Introduction:
Before witnessing the creation of Asgardia, i spent many years researching and reflecting on the universe, life and the beauty that is our conscious mind. I look at our earth societies and sadness fills my heart. I see a society led by ego, greed and conflict, divided communities fighting each other over the smallest differences and avoiding any kind of change. Even though society is far from perfect at the moment, I truly believe in our potential and in the possibility to create a prosper future for mankind. A future in which humanity stands united, living in a well structured, sustainable and balanced society that promotes investments in technology and education, the key components to solve our current sociological problems, enabling us to explore space and settle humans among the stars.
I promoted my ideas for years between friends and family but I was young and never had the resources to make those ideas a reality. I still remember the day I read about Asgardia, the so called space nation. I couldn’t believe it, I had played with the idea before but never thought to see it happening in my life time. Asgardia is still very young, but just like with humans, the early years are of extreme relevance for the future development. The persons now selected to be part of the government and the way Asgardia will be structured has a great impact on the society for generations to come. I truly identify with Asgardias vision and valorous, being a member of the Parliament, able to make a difference and actively guide humanity towards a brighter future would be a tremendous honor and a position I would dedicate my life to.
Vision:
Asgardia as humans first and only space nation, carries big responsibilities but also has the capability to achieve the unthinkable. To ensure our success and enable mankind to reach it’s true potential, we first have to accomplish humanity biggest challenges. We have to grow as a community, unifying mankind under one nation and restructuring society in a effective, balanced and innovative way. Solving those two problems will be long journey but once a reality, Asgardias survival will be guaranteed for generations to come. While always having those objectives in mind, Asgardia will continue to develop in all directions. On Earth and our national territory a fair and well functioning market with it’s own currency will be implemented, creating not only an independent and sustainable financial structure but as well opportunity for all Asgardians, education of the highest level will be available to all humans and constant investments in technology will give us the tools to expand into the universe and build a space station worthy of Asgardia, a space station we can all call home. As we grow our political system will gain momentum, giving us the necessary influence to shape the space laws in a effective and desired way, ensuring a peaceful exploration and colonization of space.
Political objectives
1.Growing as a community and walking towards the unification of humanity.
a. For humanity to reach its true potential, unification is one of the most important requirement. History has proven that it can’t be achieved by force and conquest. Only a government led by compassion and promoting a clear and prosper vision for our future can bring us together.

Only by expanding our limit and knowledge further and further, we can bring down the prices, make effective use of it and make advanced technology available within the society.
b. On a technological perspective, humanity isn’t ready to head into deep space to explore and colonize. Lots of improvements in all aspects of the journey have still to be made and can only be achieved by big investments and ambitious research.

6.Increase Asgardias political influence among the nations on earth.
a. The exponential growth we are witnessing and the creation of a efficient society will give our political system momentum and attention. Its of extreme importance to use this momentum to reflect the strong and united image of Asgardia and gain the respect of the nations on earth.
b. Work towards a permanent seat in the UN
7.Expansion of Asgardian territory
a. At the moment Asgardian territory is extremely small and not inhabited by any citizen. Even though it’s a big first step for our society there is a need to expand, a need to create national territory in space we can all call home. For that reason I will promote and take active participation in the elaboration and creation of an asgardian space station that will be launched years from now.
b. As we venture deeper into space, Asgardian territory will expand naturally, but we have to find a way to supply those colonies and guarantee a certain quality of live for the inhabitants.
c. As we grow as a community our influence over earth will get greater, in a far future I can even see the possibility to negotiate for territory on our home planet.
8.Exploration and colonization of space
a. I am certain that the universe is full of life but I believe that intelligent and conscious lifeforms are extremely rare. We have the opportunity to look around us, question and truly try to understand the functioning of the universe, in my opinion the greatest gift of all. Space is the final frontier and has huge potential for humanity. Not only is the universe beautiful and fascinating, it’s colonization would guarantee human existence for billions of years to come. The infinite amount of resources when mined efficiently could easily supply humanity and make Asgardia a extremely powerful nation.
b. Create a exploration, colonization and mining department within Asgardia to effectively increase the development and optimization.
c. Direct investments to each of those departments
d. Creation of the Asgardian space program
9.Space law
a. Last time humans decided to explore and colonize the unknown, tremendous and inhuman crimes against humanity were committed, erasing whole cultures. We learned from our mistakes and have to show this now with a strong legal system in space. The universe is unexplored territory and humans have no experience in space exploration at all. When we go out there we need to have clear guideline to avoid history from repeating and guarantee space as a peaceful environment.
b. Assist in the creation of a legal team, with the capacity to live up to the challenge.
c. Get all nations on earth to cooperate with our space laws
10.Healthcare
a. A society is only as healthy as its population and we are here because we want to build something great, we want to reach our true potential. Health is the most basic requirement to be a effective and motivated community. For those reasons a innovative healthcare program needs to be created. Quality of life is of great importance to me and a valor I will always fight for.
b. Direct investments towards the elaboration of a efficient healthcare program. It will take time to implement but the moment will come and we will be prepared.
11.Promote the importance of clean energy and the end of fossil fuel among humanity
12.Partnerships
a. We are the first society of our kind, but there already exist private companies sharing our goals and making impressive progress in turning those objectives a reality. We all have humanities best interest at heart and together could increase our joint effectiveness towards reaching our true potential.
Conclusion:
I am aware of the huge challenges that awaits the leaders of Asgardia and that my political objectives listed above will take probably more than my lifetime to fully accomplish, but i truly identify with Asgardia and all we stand for. I have this internal desire to make a real difference, lead humanity into space and guide us to our true potential. If elected as a member o parliament, I will make it my lives mission to push as far as possible and create a world we all are excited to live in. A world future generations can be eager to expand and improve long after I’m gone.
Vote for me and you are voting for us to live up to our true potential.
Success to all,
Julian Mausfeld
