So Aurelia, an RP region not to be confused with the raider region Auralia, has been under hostile occupation by Auralia forces for about 238 days. They just instituted an invisible password, meaning we now have no chance of learning the password. I tried to get in contact with someone that had founder access, but to no avail.

Auralia has declared their intent to refound the region, and have also claimed it as a "colony" and more recently a "Crown Dependency". Auralia has no legal right to the region, and former natives I've spoken to have given me permission to write this resolution to prevent the regions history and RMB from being lost. Evidence of their intent, and their claims to the region, are contained within these RMB posts. There is awhile before they can eject the last nation still in the region, so it's not a fast push.

The Security Council,

Aware that in some instances of use a Security Council Liberation might be used upon a region that has grown inactive in order to save its regional history;

Noting that at the time of this resolution being submitted to the Security Council the region Aurelia has been under hostile occupation by forces of the similarly named region Auralia for 238 days;

Believing that in the case of Aurelia, a region that grew inactive over time, a Security Council Liberation has become necessary in order to prevent its history from being lost since the hostile occupiers have made their intent to refound the region publicly known;

Stating that former native nations and founder nation controllers Sjalhaven and United Provinces of Atlantica have expressed their governments' intent to oppose the forceful refound of Aurelia, supporting a Security Council Liberation in order to prevent it from happening;

Concerned once again by the actions of the forces of Auralia within Aurelia under the direction of King Nephmir II, a nation which has previously had its actions condemned by the international community on all sides;

Hereby liberates Aurelia.

Edit 1: Did BBD's suggestions
Edit 2&3: ?
Edit 4: Added Condemning clause
Edit 5: changed the Condemning clause

Fully support this as it is clear they have pushed on with their intent to refound the region. They have no reasonable claim over it and no native support for a refound.

I fully support this resolution.

Looks like they could do it a good deal faster if their non-delegate nation was delegate, presuming the influence it has isn't from elsewhere.

Surprised you didn't note that's it's also unrelated to GA author Auralia

Personally, I have mixed feelings. It's a raid, but it's also Nephimir related. Definitely a puzzler

Finally. It's kinda strange why it was Aurelia was raided because it had a similar name to auralia. Wait until they know about auralia the nation

That is an impressive amount of time to hold a region, I must say. Any reason they weren’t liberated with the current defender activity?

No surprise that Gameplayer aggression against RPers continues

This clause seems a little bit clunky to me - you have to read it a couple of times to get the sense of it. Also "its" spelt incorrectly.

Minor suggestion for improvement made.

Fine.

Hereby liberates Aurelia.

Minor correction - should be governments'.

A precise proposal, full support from me. If I remind our government of Nephmir's moronic declaration of war on TWP from a few years ago I'm reckon they might fall in behind this Liberation just to stick it to his former region - no guarantees though.

They just moved in, so it's from elsewhere.

Thanks BBD. I blame my phone's autocorrect for the minor grammar mistakes, it's kind of annoying :/

Up until now I think even defenders were confused by the similar names, I know I sure was. We ended up talking about it yesterday, and I don't know how long it was passworded for which would have made a liberation impossible. It wasn't until I actually looked at the region that I realized my mistake of confusing the regions, and by then they had made the password invisible which made our chances of figuring it out impossible. I tried getting in touch with a founder holder, but to no avail.

And so it begins *Rubs hands evilly*

Anyways considering it’s a liberation you’ll probably get support within the WA however the issue being is that most of the WA have no interest in voting within the WA as they just use it to be a raider/defender.

Good luck with the resolution!

Just another minor suggestion Kuriko (missed it earlier).

I think you'll find there's a lot of support for liberation proposals within the WA. Also, not really sure where you're going with your second point? R/D players only make up a very small fraction of the NS user base.

The founders have expressed their intent to oppose but can't be bothered to log in? Can you explain?

It's usually delightfully easy to pass a Liberation, dunno why you think it wouldn't be this time.

Founderless regions are targets, news at 9.

The last person to have access to the account lost the password to it, making it impossible.

Aurelia was an empty region, and had been for a long time, when we moved in. Only after a raid by an enemy group did we instate border control. There is one more inactive nation in this region, only logging on to not CTE, and for the region to remain a wasteland.
If we get a refound through, this will be an associate region of Auralia, but not under Knight control. No passwords will be implemented, and democracy shall rule. Please don't involve yourselves in matters of no concern to anyone other than the one nation in Aurelia other than Auralian ones.

Yeah, this post made me laugh. Just because a region is empty that doesn't mean you can take it, especially if one nation remains that has been there for years. Your plan for a region that doesn't belong to you, and never has, does not give you the right to try and take it and destroy the contents of its RMB and regional history. This "matter" concerns the natives of Aurelia and you as the invaders, and I'm acting on behalf of two former natives and founders who have expressed the fact that they don't want their former region refounded as a trophy of Auralia.

All our latest raids have been about expressing the need for founders. Either helping to refound, or bringing back the founder nation from the realms of CTE. Being founderless is being vulnerable.
This region has had no activity for years, and is in need of a founder, as you express yourself here, given how no one has access to the founder nation. Therefore we seek to refound and allow the region to grow and flourish from there. A friend to Auralia, but not subservient to it.
The last ones to have any business with the region are the people with no relation to it, no interest in it, and no plans for it, other than to spite Auralia. As my nation's slogan has always said "Leave us alone!"

OOC: 4 years of RMB for "security". I'll pass.

A wasteland, without any active nations, no future, nothing but a museum, or a region for the future. A new home, with a new community? I would take the latter.

But.... You have no lawful right to give that region, a region which doesn't belong to you, that future. Especially when native nations still exist within the game and should have a say in what happens to their region.

Yes we do, we have a right to move into an empty region, give it an active government, protect it, and have plans for it. Only one nation remains, and will not talk under any circumstances, I don't have any idea why it even exists, but it has no apparent will other than existing.

Yes hello I'm the Sjalhaven mentioned in the proposal, former native of the region as you can attest by yourself by going back through the RMB enough, and I do indeed support this resolution.
