[DEFEATED] Commend Apulita

Postby Alnorud » Sat Oct 12, 2019 8:41 am

Hello everyone! Here is my first resolution draft, I'm waiting for your opinions or questions about it, thanks in advance.
The Security Council,

Recognizing that the nation of Apulita was founded in 2013 and became Delegate of Warzone Europe for the first time the very same year.

Noting that throughout the history of the Warzone regions, multiple raids caused constant instability, preventing stable communities from emerging in these regions.

Acknowledging the past and present major roles that Apulita has played in the Warzones throughout their career, such as:
  • Acted as Governor of the Dominion of Warzone Europe and later as member of the Internal Ministry following their Longest Delegacy.
  • Served as Duke and participated to the draft of the Constitution of an independent government in Warzone Europe following the end of the Dominion, as well as Grand Duke of the Realm of Warzone Europe subsequently to an election when the regional community became independent again in late 2019 and finally serving as President of the Union of Warzone Europe the following year.
  • Oversaw the negotiations and invitations of Warzone governments that led to the draft of the Constitution and foundation of the Warzone Federation.
Observing a previously unseen stability in these unstable and unique regions under the Longest Delegacy of Apulita.

Impressed with the fact that Apulita is the nation that served as Delegate of a Warzone region for the longest period in all Warzones with the impressive number of 823 days as Delegate of Warzone Europe.

Recalling that the longest consecutive period of Apulita as Delegate of Warzone Europe wasn’t their first term as Delegate and that this nation sometimes served as regional Delegate again over following years.

Pleased by the efforts provided by Apulitan diplomats that prevented various Military organizations from leading military efforts in Warzone Europe.

Admiring that, despite the relatively low population of Warzone Europe, Apulita managed to successfully organize nations during emergencies such as zombie outbreaks.

Further observing that Apulita had a key role in the efforts that occurred from late 2018 to late 2019 among Warzone communities to provide stability and independent governments to the Warzone regions under a shared organization. As such, Apulita acted as Constitutional Signatory of the Warzone Federation, served as Senator, Executive Secretary and then President as a citizen of the Warzone Federation during the terms that followed its foundation. As well as Delegate of Warzone Europe and Head of EuroState under the Federal administration.

Appreciating that when the Warzone Federation was dissolved, Apulita convinced the Warzone communities to cooperate, at a time when many were unsure about the future of their diplomatic relations, and later organized talks which permitted to formalize most of the mutual defensive support between Warzones.

Believing that Apulita's work over the years both as a major regional leader and key figure of the Warzones permitted for these characteristically unstable and versatile regions to enjoy an unexpected, and unprecedented, stability and prosperity.

Hereby Commends Apulita.

Noting that throughout the history of the Warzone regions, multiple raids caused constant instability, preventing stable communities from emerging in these regions.

Acknowledging the major roles that the nation of Apulita played in Warzone Europe for over those five years:
  • Acted as Governor of the Dominion of Warzone Europe and later Duke of Warzone Europe following the independence of the region.
  • Overseen the negotiations and invitations of Warzone governments that led to the draft of the Constitution and foundation of the Warzone Federation.
  • Served as Senator of Warzone Europe and then President as a citizen of the Warzone Federation during the terms that followed its foundation. As well as Delegate of Warzone Europe and Head of EuroState under the Federal administration.

Pleased by the efforts provided by Apulitans diplomats that prevented various Raider organizations from leading military efforts in Warzone Europe.

Admiring this nation's efforts to provide an impressive organization of the nations of Warzone Europe during special emergencies such as the zombie outbreaks that this Assembly’s nations had to overcome over the past years and this despite the relatively low population of their region.

Further observing that Apulita had a key role in the efforts that occured since late 2018 from Warzone communities to provide stability and self-governing governments to the Warzone regions. As such, Apulita acted as constitutional signatory of the Warzone Federation and was elected as President after the end of the first electoral term.

Believing that the actions of this nation over the years as a major regional leader and key figure of the Warzones permitted for these characteristically unstable and versatile regions to enjoy an unexpected stability and prosperity.

This is actually really well written, and kudos on no illegailities for your first draft. Many people say that the Warzones aren't worth recognition because they're meant to be unstable due to game mechanics, but I disagree with that sentiment. I do believe however that Apulita was involved in Equinox, or a region with a similar name, so it may be worth looking into that to add more to your resolution.

I don't think it is the only point of a Warzone. I rather think the point of these regions is that stabilizing them is something hard to do, this would explain why the longest-serving Delegate is only displayed in Warzones, because it's a pretty hard feat to achieve.

I don't think that Apulita was involved directly in another organization than one involving Warzone Europe (Such as the Warzone Federation).
Apulita did served as Governor of Warzone Europe during the protectorate of Equilism (As said in the proposal, during the Dominion of Warzone Europe) and Empress Astarial from Equilism was actually commended in the Resolution #147 of the Security Council where the stability of Warzone Europe was included as an argument for this resolution.
It is rather a cooperation with Equilism that provided Apulita for the prosperity of Warzone Europe than a direct involvement in this region.

Revived my nation just the give my support.

Apulita deserves one, even if my younger self would deny it cause I was threatened that he would supplant my legacy ias the biggest guy in the Warzones. ;)

As the resolution says he more than doubled my delegate streak with shrew mix of growing endos and diplomacy with our regions.

And he did it with a constitutional government which I never could, and even expanded it across the other Warzones via the WZ Federation. It's amazingly tough to multiple regions to agree to anything.

Marked a change in red. I think you can put all the stuff on Warzone Europe here (Head of EuroState, Governor, Duke, Delegate), then move all the WZF stuff into it's own clause, where you talk about how Apulita greatly contributed towards uniting the different regions (and say the stuff about founding it and being president).

Spelling mistake fixed in red. I'd replace "self-governing" with "independent" so it doesn't sound weird. The last sentence is redundant of the "Acknowledging" clause above.

I'm honored to be considered, and very grateful to Alnorud for taking the time to write this. That alone gives me great happiness.

I can confirm I've never been involved in a region called Equinox, though as was mentioned there may be some mixed streams due to the close relationship between WZEU and Equilism for a lot of my tenure as Governor.

I truly appreciate that, especially coming from you. You will always be the first, and I don't think a lot of what I achieved could have been done without others like you paving the way. Also, there's something to be said for how cleanly your 365 day record sits for Airspace. :p

Senator and Head of EuroState, despite the second being a regional position, were roles that Apulita held during the Federation however.
The Delegate position is also kind of special there as Apulita have been Delegate both before and after the Federation's foundation.
Actually the first clause is already supposed to speak about the positions before the Warzone Federation, maybe it is unclear because of the regional positions under the Federal administration. I will take a look at it.

Good points, I agree.

Bormiar wrote:This is a little tangential. How did Apulita do this? You'll also want to add some examples.

If I recall correctly, Apulita was appreciated by some of the potential invaders that could have raided Warzone Europe, including Rifty who was very interested in the Warzones when Apulita became Delegate for the first time.

Bormiar wrote:I sort of rewrote this clause because it sounded odd to me. Feel free to use the change (and if they didn't help with N-Day just delete that bit).

Thank you! I will ask Apulita to make sure about N-Day.

Bormiar wrote:Spelling mistake fixed in red. I'd replace "self-governing" with "independent" so it doesn't sound weird. The last sentence is redundant of the "Acknowledging" clause above.

I agree as autonomous regional governments became a thing later, after the end of Apulita's term.

Bormiar wrote:"Commends" should be lowercase.

I'm hesitating concerning the lowercase, as recent resolutions have been varying on that point. My personal preference would be to keep the uppercase though.

Thank you for the corrections, suggestions and compliments! I will update the draft with your suggestions taken into account, feel free to react to my answers as well.

I'm not convinced the nominee is commendable yet. Reading it over there's essentially X reasons for commending Apulita:

1. Governing Warzone Europe (WZEU) while it was:
a) Equilism's Protectorate;
b) A member of the Warzone Federation (WZF).
2. Preventing raids in WZEU in the two above positions.

I am skeptical of the claim that Apulita was responsible for preventing raids while WZEU was claimed as Equilism's protectorate. I recall during a good portion of that time that WZEU would often be threatened with raids and subsequently the NPA would take a visit to the region for a couple of days. Over this period where WZEU was frequently threatened, it was the NPA (through their alliance with Equilism) that was largely responsible for being able to deter raids.

Looking through delegacy changes in WZEU over the past while (and while WZEU was a member of the WZF), I disbelieve as well that raids were prevented (much less by Apulita). I notice a number of Delegacy changes—most notably what jumps out at mean is an NPO puppet replacing Apulita as the Delegate.

Lastly, as the WZF has recently dissolved, how is that a note for which Apulita should be commended?
Apparently simultaneously a Ravenclaw puppet, a NPO plant, and a Warden spy. I had no idea I was that good. Depending on who you ask, my aliases include Krulltopia.

Over this period where WZEU was frequently threatened, it was the NPA (through their alliance with Equilism) that was largely responsible for being able to deter raids.

I don't deny the fact that Equilism's protectorate and the NPA had their part in this stability, but there are also examples like the one with Rifty during which Apulita as Governor and its autonomous government had their part in this. Regardless of Equilism's protectorate, raiders are less likely to raid a Warzone when they like the Delegate. It takes a lot of efforts from a Warzone government, even as a protectorate, to remain continuously at the Delegacy over such a long period. Also the common belief in the community of Warzone Europe was that the protectorate was beneficial to them, maintaining a mutually beneficial protectorate over a few years isn't easy either.

As for its period as member of the Warzone Federation, Warzone Europe wasn't the only region to secure and balancing the pilers had always been a problem.
Apulita did participated in the Federal Army and was President of the Federation for a term so he had his part in Federal Defense but the Federation wasn't the kind of organization in favor of longer, more impressive terms like the ones of the Dominion of Warzone Europe.

Praeceps wrote:Looking through delegacy changes in WZEU over the past while (and while WZEU was a member of the WZF), I disbelieve as well that raids were prevented (much less by Apulita).

This is rather referring to the more than a thousand days during which we seen Apulita as Delegate with only a single tag that ended his first Delegacy at 224 days before the 823 days one (Longest Warzone Delegacy to this day). The rest of the Delegacy history is less concerned and the political participation over the years is more the point of this proposal concerning the time after his longest Delegac with Apulita becoming Duke an independent WZEU and organizing the founding of the WZF.

Praeceps wrote: I notice a number of Delegacy changes—most notably what jumps out at mean is an NPO puppet replacing Apulita as the Delegate.

As I said, the first Delegacies of Apulita are more impressive because the protectorate government was made in favor of it. Also, until the birth of the Federation, let's keep in mind that some of the Delegacies that followed were still pretty impressive (Ancian during 160 and 259 days notably, or Central Dintiniaduring 137 days last year) and Apulita did served in Ancian's government. (For the record, Warzone Australia only have a longest Delegacy of 271 days and Warzone Africa of 193 days)

The NPO tag was under the Presidency of another citizen of the WZF who was from Airspace, and happened because at that time (April of this year) Warzone Airspace had problems with its NPO embassy and was also a State of the WZF. The Pacific finally decided to let the embassy closure happen in order to focus on an Antifa operation and did a tag in WZEU at a later update. In other words, Apulita hadn't much of a political part in this raid as he was no longer a government member and only acted with the Federal Army by appointing BC officers at the update in order to do update defending at his sides.

Praeceps wrote:Lastly, as the WZF has recently dissolved, how is that a note for which Apulita should be commended?

Indeed, the Warzone Federation have been dissolved, which wasn't the case when this draft was written. I think that the WZF remains the longest and most successful attempt from Warzoners to organize a real Warzone Unity with three to four Warzones defended and organized by the same organization for nearly a year. Of course this will have to be updated in this proposal. Finally, the recent call for peace between the Warzoners from Apulita may also be notable now.

With the fall of the Federation, this proposal will obviously need to be updated, but I don't think it makes Apulita a lot less commendable.
A lot of persons weren't expecting it to last so long.
As I previously said, I will prepare a second draft.

Praeceps wrote:I'm not convinced the nominee is commendable yet. Reading it over there's essentially X reasons for commending Apulita:

1. Governing Warzone Europe (WZEU) while it was:
a) Equilism's Protectorate;
b) A member of the Warzone Federation (WZF).
2. Preventing raids in WZEU in the two above positions.

I am skeptical of the claim that Apulita was responsible for preventing raids while WZEU was claimed as Equilism's protectorate. I recall during a good portion of that time that WZEU would often be threatened with raids and subsequently the NPA would take a visit to the region for a couple of days. Over this period where WZEU was frequently threatened, it was the NPA (through their alliance with Equilism) that was largely responsible for being able to deter raids.

Looking through delegacy changes in WZEU over the past while (and while WZEU was a member of the WZF), I disbelieve as well that raids were prevented (much less by Apulita). I notice a number of Delegacy changes—most notably what jumps out at mean is an NPO puppet replacing Apulita as the Delegate.

Lastly, as the WZF has recently dissolved, how is that a note for which Apulita should be commended?

I won't make any comment on whether my actions are deserving of commendation here, but this has come up a few times and I just wanted to shed some light. Particularly for some others who have gotten less recognition than myself for their actions.

The relationship with Equilism certainly made us more secure, but it didn't necessarily make the job easy so much as change the responsibilities. I negotiated/signed the treaty with Equilism that got us the protectorateship and the relationship was maintained by help going both ways (an example of help going to Equilism from WZEU was during Z-Days when our teams would help sweep Equilism with cure missiles). This relationship was responsible for backing us up in WA numbers, but most of the work involved in security was actually maintaining links with raiders as well as keeping ears to the ground for planned attacks. A lot of the intelligence work was done by others so don't necessarily credit me for that, but people like Khronion should be credited for the work they did gathering information so we knew when we needed to call on the alliances we had built.

EDIT: I saw the mention of N-Day, I think that came around after most of my active period and I don't deserve any credit for handling that, I was always more an apocalypse by zombie fan than by nukes.

The assertion that Apulita was liked by raiders and as such was less likely to get raided by them puzzles. I would like to see sources for raiders being the threat to Warzones. As far as I can remember, Warzones have never been of much interest to raiders (since their purpose was to get raided). Typically, when I think of militaries in Warzones I think of either small UCRs or of GCRs.The latter would be deterred due to the relationship with Equilism (and in turn TNP).

I do remember in my time, the most prominent threat while a protectorate was not of a raider military but of a defender organization. And I believe it was this organization which ultimately ended Apulita's streak. Perhaps Apulita should have spent more time becoming friends with defenders?
Apparently simultaneously a Ravenclaw puppet, a NPO plant, and a Warden spy. I had no idea I was that good. Depending on who you ask, my aliases include Krulltopia.

A biiiiiit of textual rewording - as ever, fuck about with this at will. I haven't really added much in the way of new information here, but (as I recall, WZEU used to be a protectorate of Equilism):
The Security Council,

Recognizing the achievements of Apulita, which ascended to the WA Delegacy of Warzone Europe (WZEU) within less than six months of being founded in 2013 and subsequently served in that position on no less than seven different occasions,

Identifying Apulita's 823-day term between July 2014 and October 2016 - widely described as the Longest Delegacy - as being the longest single term in office ever held by a Warzone Delegate, thus helping to shatter the unfortunate and long-running tradition of Warzones being unable to foster stable communities as a result of near-continuous raids,

Acknowledging Apulita's significant influence over WZEU: having served as the Governor of the Dominion of Warzone Europe, a member of the Internal Ministry (following their Longest Delegacy), the Duke (where they helped to draft a new Constitution for an independent post-Dominion regional government), and then finally being elected as the Grand Duke of the Realm of Warzone Europe in late 2019,

Admiring not only Apulita's successful organisation of WZEU's small but tight-knit community during emergencies such as zombie apocalypses, but also - with support from Equilism - their work in preventing various regional militaries from invading their Warzone,

Recalling Apulita's key role in setting up a formal Warzone Federation, which would defend native Warzone governments, in 2018-19; having helped to draft and then sign onto the Federation's Constitution, they later served in many of its highest positions, and is remembered as a Senator, Executive Secretary, and ultimately a former President of the Federation (as well as working as WZEU's Delegate and Head of EuroState),

Appreciating that even after the Federation collapsed in 2019 - with the foreign affairs departments of Warzones suffering under the yoke of uncertainty - it was Apulita which urged inter-Warzone co-operation, and later organised talks to that effect which helped to formalise mutual defence among the Warzones, and

Believing that Apulita's unceasing work as a major leader, both of their own region and of the Warzones at large, enabled the development of an unexpected - and unprecedented - period of stability and prosperity across half a dozen characteristically unstable and versatile regions:

Hereby Commends Apulita.

Do you have any plans to rejoin the WA in order to submit Commend Apulita at some point in the future?

Why does it fucking matter? It takes all of 10 seconds to rejoin and not much longer to grab a couple of endos.

Thank you for this textual rewording! I will compare the two drafts to see how I can improve the writing of this proposal.
Also, you are right, Warzone Europe was a protectorate of Equilism during the Dominion which lasted from late 2013 to early 2018.

Actually, I'm already in the WA, I plan to submit this proposal with my nation Jean Rowe which is currently WA Delegate of Warzone Asia.

The draft have been slightly updated, I may add a few other modifications to the sentences but I preferred to stick with the original structure of the resolution.
More specifically, I added a reference to Apulita's position as President of the Union of Warzone Europe which was recently founded and reworked the last paragraph using the suggestions of Tinhampton.

Also, as the draft have been around since some time and improved thanks to suggestions, I would like to submit it in the following weeks.
Don't hesitate to let me know if you have more suggestions about this draft!

Hello again everyone, I decided to move this draft to final call as I think and that most suggestions have already been posted and I'm satisfied with this current draft.
I will let two more days before submitting it in case anyone wants to share some final thoughts about it.

Their position as President of the Union have been mentioned in the following part:
Served as Duke and participated to the draft of the Constitution of an independent government in Warzone Europe following the end of the Dominion, as well as Grand Duke of the Realm of Warzone Europe subsequently to an election when the regional community became independent again in late 2019 and finally as President of the Union of Warzone Europe the following year.

However, I am unsure that a mention of the Constitution would be necessary. The Constitutions of the Duchy, which was the first Constitution of an independent Warzone Europe government, and of the Warzone Federation, which involved three to four Warzones for nearly a year are already mentioned and are most likely more noteworthy and were more complicated.
The Union is noteworthy as it successfully gave a new breath to the regional activity in Warzone Europe, but its Constitution is voluntarily very simplified in opposition to the Constitution of the Realm which was sometimes considered to be over-complicated.
