**Pattern Name:** Nesting Constitution
**Introduction:** Since governments and geographies are nested, so must constitutions be nested. This means that each constitution is supported by the nested constitutions "inside" it and each "lower" constitution supports it's higher constitutions.
Constitutions are the responsibilities of The House of Representatives at each level.
**Illustration:**
.
**CONTEXT:** The EIP Sketch must be dealt with in every constitution.
The constitution must locate the limits of control for each law (rule) in two domains, the domains of ecology-biology-physical AND geologic-political.
**Initial Situation:**
**PROBLEM:** Rules (constitutions) are internally inconsistent in all current instances national governments.
**Forces:**
**THEREFORE (SOLUTION):** Design governance based upon Ashby's Law and Beer's Viable System Model as illuminated by Robin Asby. Focus first on constitutions that nest.
**Actions:**
**Consequences:**
**Known Uses:**
**Examples:**

**CONNECTED PATTERNS:** **Supported Patterns:** **Supporting Patterns:**
**Notes:**
Let's play with three sets of nesting rules: House of Rep 1 House of Rep 3 House of Rep 6
