Pursuant to our earlier vote in favour of Resolution no. 13 and accompanying note; I have been asked by my Ministry of War to lodge with the IFA council and with the Democratic Republic of Baggnagia a request for information for the location of significant Baggnakian separatist forces, and the locations of all known anti-aircraft defences, radar installations, aircraft, and all allied and enemy naval elements, so that supporting naval air strikes may be organized.

Seeing His Grace's communication, Emilio responded that all attempts were being made to communicate directly with the Baggnagian government to obtain the said information, but that for the moment all he knew for sure was that around 15-20,000 separatists were holding out in a region (comprised mostly of dry mountains and desert) of roughly 1.275 million total people

[Flardania]

Delegate Junko Yamada closed her phone before announcing: "By the Grace of the Goddess Illias, The Anime Reality Republic of Flardania votes AYE in favor of Resolution #13 though intervention by the A.G.K.F military is currently not expected."

[Elemental North]

Because I'm too lazy to tally votes. We have a majority, the Resolution passes.

Republic of Bratislav Dimitri Sledan MERGER BETWEEN IFA AND WC [Resolution 14] This Resolution proposes the official approval of the merger between the International Freedom Alliance and the Western Coalition. IFA-WC Merger Philosophy/Mission The Alliance's essential purpose is to safeguard the freedom and security of its members through political and military means.The Alliance believes in democratic values and encourages consultation and cooperation on defence and security issues to build trust and, in the long run, prevent conflict. The Alliance is committed to the peaceful resolution of disputes. If diplomatic efforts fail, it has the military capacity (Rapid Reaction Force) needed to undertake crisis-management operations. The Rapid Reaction Force is a force composed of military contributions of fellow IFA members - it serves to directly aid in the defence of member-states. The Alliance is committed to the principle that an attack against one or several members is considered as an attack against all. The Core Tasks of the Alliance are collective defence, crisis-management and cooperative security. In all, The Alliance stands as a security organization for moderate nations that values democracy and freedom. We stand as an alliance opposed to extremism, authoritarianism, terrorism, and communism. We accept countries into the alliance who similarly value these ideals and strive for a society that is based on the principles of freedom, liberty, and democratic governance.

Ashford walks into the room, and calmly looks at the walls. She had done so much with her time here, risen so quickly, done so well, and now, now it would soon be over. They would move on to a new stage, a better stage. One she was looking forward to being a part of. As she laid her hand on the gabble, for one of the last times, she sighed.

"Good evening ladies and gentlemen of the Council, today we begin debate, in a series of 4, 2 day events that will take us through the various aspects of this merge. In the next 8 days we will discover just what we must improve, if anything at all, and whether or not we truly do desire to merge.

Thus, I open up debate to the floor by Council for day 1 of 2 for the following section:

Amendments/comments/suggestions to the section titled; "Philosophy/Mission".

The floor is open."

[Bratislav]

The Representative of Bratislav to the IFA expressed his agreement with what the representative of Elemental North had said.

"This is the most important decision and resolution in the history of the IFA. That is why I urge all members of IFA to express their opinion and concern, we need a truly majority approval to pass this important resolution and finalize this historic merger."

[Giliberafta]

Secretary of State Jon Bon Jovi stood up from his chair and stated with glee that," After a nearly 100% vote in the United Parliament, our nation is happy to say yes to this bill."

[Liberated Counties]

Lawrence walked into the council chamber, neatly dressed and carrying a letter that had been just sent to him from James Emmanuel and the CEO Council. They'd been emailed the merger terms a few days ago and quickly accepted the terms. Now Lawrence's job was too submit the letter to the council and be on his way, secretly hoping the role of ambassador would go to him and not his rival from the WC, Martin Jones. He submitted the letter and exchanged pleasantries with all those around him.

To our dearest allies, benefactors and friends.

We accept resolution 14, and look forward too the new age of freedom, co-operation and peace.

Yours Sincerely,

Head CEO James Emmanuel and the CEO Council.

[Flardania]

Junko Yamada walked into the council before sitting behind the Flardania desk while chewing gum. " The Anime Reality Republic of Flardania by the Grace of the Goddess Illias decrees that there is no merit to two different alliances, both containing similar if not identical ideologies. Are primary concern of our "non-human" population being ignored and denied by joining with the IFA has been resolved when you have so graciously accepted our nation into your alliance. This has been all the proof we needed in determining the tolerance of this alliance and we are glad the WC and the IFA can be one. With this the A.G.K.F votes AYE in favor of Resolution 14." Junko announced before getting up to shop with her friend Hatsune Miku while thinking about how she was going to beat out the WC Delegate 1st President Negi Springfield for the IFC delegacy.

[Elemental North]

Ashford banged her gabble.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you mistake my instructions, this is not a vote. This is a debate. I will call for a vote when the time comes. Do I here any objections to the section of the merger before us, as I outlined in my opening statement"?

[Flardania]

Ashford banged her gabble.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you mistake my instructions, this is not a vote. This is a debate. I will call for a vote when the time comes. Do I here any objections to the section of the merger before us, as I outlined in my opening statement"?

Junko stopped in her tracks before realizing this was going to be more dragged out than it needs to be. She sent another text to Hatsune Miku before heading back to her seat and responded to Ashford. "Flardania has no objections." Junko answered decisively

"The good representatives answer is duly noted for the record. I don't know how many of you listened to my opening statement..." Ashford said, peevishly watching as the Delegate sat down in the chair, "but this conference will take a total of 8 days. So you would do well to contact whomever you need and tell them it is most likely that you will be back in a week and a day."

Junko felt attacked by Ashford in regards to not listening and was upset seeing how she was the last person to place a vote but Ashford chose to single her out. Nevertheless Junko was going to show how focus she is so she can surpass fmr. Pres. Negi Springfield for the delegate role. If it meant nitpicking then so be it.
"On second thought I have a concern." Junko stated as she leaned back in her seat out of spite. "In the Mission it states that The Rapid Reaction Force is a force composed of military contributions of fellow IFA members. I am wondering are WC members to be excluded from the alliance military!?" Junko added while maintaining eye contact with Ashford.
