Line 1:
The '''Bowman Acts''' are a series of legislative articles, approved and signed into law secretly by many of the nations of the world, which provide a legislative framework for the day-to-day dealings, operations, and other concerns in relation with metahuman and extra-terrestrial interests and development on Earth (or Earth-247, as catalogued in the [[Daria Multiverse]].) The initial signing by world powers of the Acts was on July 8; as a result, that day is considered an unofficial holiday for many in the metahuman community, and many metahumans gather in the New York area for celebrations.
 
The majority of the Bowman Acts are unrevealed at this time; however, one thing that is known is that there are definite protocols in place for the conduct of telepathic citizens within Bowman Act-signatory countries. Another known section of the Acts is the 'mutual-defense treaty' portion, in which all nations have promised to join forces for the purpose of defending the entire planet from imminent threats of natures specifically stated in the Acts. There is also a statute in place that regulates the overt use in public of metahuman abilities (similiar in concept and function to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wizarding_world#Government_and_politics Wizarding World]'s ''International Confederation of Wizards' Statute of Secrecy.'')
