Opposed as long as this remains, raiding right-wing regions is not commendable and this reads as nothing more than an out-of-character jab against right-wing politics.

If you actually read the proposal, you would know it's not commending Andy (or anyone) for raiding right-wing region. It is noting that Andy has made significant diplomatic and military treaties with regions across the military spectrum (as stated) including TCB, which is one of the regions listed, whose military primarily engages in raiding right-wing regions. That TCB does this is an objective fact, not a jab.
You're grasping at straws here if that's your reason for opposing. The snip you quoted isn't even directly about Andy.

What does this even mean? What are “ministerial structures”? Isn’t an executive a person? I don’t get this at all.
Maowi wrote:making a concerted effort to cultivate activity on Thaecia’s Regional Message Board (RMB) - official legislative and judicial business is conducted on satellite regions’ RMBs, making this a crucial aspect of Thaecian society;
“making a concerted effort” implies failure to actually achieve anything. Everything after the dash is confusing and kind of unnecessary. If anything, focus more on why rmb participation matters or what it has actually done for Thaecia.
Goddamn I did not realize how many FA clauses there were until now. Why is this a separate clause than the recognizing clause? There’s no need to mention the positions, so at best this should be a list with the events of “things Andy has done FA-wise”. Otherwise the organization is repetitive and very odd.

“tag runs” is a bad way to word that, might find a slightly more IC way of articulating it.
That should be all! Have a great day,

Alistia wrote:Very well written proposal, but I'm not sure if I am convinced if co-founding, or even founding, a region, and then putting a lot of time and effort into making that region great and noticeable on the international scene is worth a commendation, in and of itself.
Its very nice that they cultivated great culture as PM, Spearheaded Foreign Policy & the Military, fostered WA participation, etc, but I am of the view that most of these things, even if done with excellent regard and diligence, are things that any founder, regional officer, or just regional citizen, should do to better their region, and would do if they had the ability (time, knowledge, resources/mentoring). I know that Thaecia has become a very notable region, but again, I just am not sure that the sole act creating and building the community of a region, even one that has come to fame, is worth a commendation, even considering that they have also authored four SC resolutions (and the SC itself is a political tool).
I'm not familiar with the occupation of England, but I do know that the Thaempirial Army is 'independent' - i.e what type of operations they engage in, and the regions that are targeted, are based on whatever furthers their regional power and influence. I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing, just stating it to be how things are, to my knowledge. This proposal specifically mentions Andusre's military endeavors as a reason as to which they should be commended, but as it is known, and explicitly said in this proposal, that this military does raid & do tags (though not exclusively ofc), so I don't think these actions should be commended. If their endeavors were mentioned with a list of regions/communities that were helped by this said military I would likely feel differently, be we would essentially be praising Andusre for creating a military which has harmed regions and their communities.

In my eyes, a Founder indeed should do all that Andy did in Thaecia. But the vast majority do not. It's similar when you look at a lot of positions - President or equivalent, leader of a military, minister of FA, etc. A lot of C/Cs tend to commend what, realistically, we'd expect people to do in such positions but never usually happens. Basically to say, I don't think commending a Founder for building a region to a level most do not is any different from commending an MoFA/President for signing some notable treaties which most leaders never do or commending a military leader for building up a successful military when most such leaders flunk.Alistia wrote:I would like to hear any responses to this.
And I can be swayed, I consider myself neutral to this proposal.
This post just describes my initial feelings on the matter.
