  Article 33- The Seal  
33.1 The Great Seal of The Earth and See  
  By the power and authority of the Charter of the Globe Union a great seal shall be forged and shall be known as the Great Seal of the Earth and See.  
  It shall be entrusted to the Globe Council and the Globe Secretariat to protect and honor the Great Seal of The Earth and See, for its imprint shall represent nothing less than the existence of the word and law of the Globe Union Free Society of Free Societies.  
  As such, it is only upon the approval of the Globe Council that The Great Seal of the Earth and See shall be instanced on a document or deed, excepting those documents prescribed as mandatory for the Secretary-General, Globe Council and Globe Senate by this Charter.  
33.2 Unique Design of the Seal  
  In recognition of the general elections of the Globe Council every five years, the Great Seal of the Earth and See shall reflect the unique term of the Globe Council.  
  At the conclusion of a General Election for the Globe Council, a new Great Seal shall be forged reflecting the new officials and leadership of the Union.  
33.3 Affixing the Great Seal  
  The Globe Council of the Union is to provide for the safe custody of the Seal, which may only be used by the authority of the Globe Council excepting those documents listed as mandatory for Secretariat, Globe Board and Globe Council by this Charter.  
  Every instrument to which the Seal is affixed is to be signed by either the Secretary-General, or countersigned by at least two Globe Councilors of the Globe Council or by or by another person appointed by the Globe Council for the purpose.  
  The Globe Council may determine either generally or in any particular case that a signature may be affixed by a mechanical means specified in the determination.  
33.4 Certificate Seal  
  The organisation of the Union may have one or more duplicates of the Seal which are to be facsimiles of the Seal with the addition on their faces of the words "Certificate Seal" and which are to be known as Certificate Seals. Any certificate for shares, membership, certification, qualification or financial instruments issued under a Certificate Seal is deemed to be sealed with the Great Seal.
