[DRAFT] Commend Erinor
Posted: Thu May 05, 2022 5:04 amHello everyone.
I’ve been thinking about commendations and who I think deserves one even if they aren’t on the list or probably won’t have one authored in the near future.
Therefore, I’ve decided to go with Erinor (more commonly known as Seraph) as a candidate for a commendation. Although their work has almost exclusively been in the South Pacific, it has been no less important: they’ve designed cultural events that have stuck, were one of the most prolific Ministers of Regional Affairs, having a stellar publication output and this hasn’t mentioned their term as delegate, where they presided over the greatest increase of endorsements in TSP history at that point, an increase that was maintained by consecutive delegates.
This is my first SC draft in a looong time, so I’d appreciate any feedback you may have!
(ps: thanks to Zukchiva for proofreading)

The Security Council,
BELIEVING that exemplary and positive contributions to home regions over a long period of time are laudable and ought to be commended, especially if they have made a lasting impression on the region and its culture in the modern day, serving as an example for younger nations to make positive contributions to their regions and the world;
INTRODUCING Erinor as a nation who has contributed to the culture and politics of The South Pacific through their many positions and actions within and outwith the South Pacifican government;
NOTING Erinor’s distinguished service in the government of the coalition of the South Pacific that first began when they were elected Minister of Regional Affairs (MoRA), a position in which they would eventually serve in non-consecutively for just under a year, becoming one of the longest serving Ministers of Regional Affairs in the South Pacific;
APPLAUDING Erinor’s contribution to the creation and operation of many international and regional events run by the South Pacific while serving as Minister of Regional Affairs, including:
- Running and hosting the first iteration of the South Pacific Coconut Awards, a forum for nations in the South Pacific to democratically bestow awards upon fellow nations through a system of nominations, voting, and selection, with Erinor and others providing running commentary about the event - a format and theme that has been replicated by many other ministers in later terms,
- Participating in the organization of “A Drop in the Ocean”, a festival jointly ran by The North Pacific and The South Pacific, which included various written contests to allow nations to express storytelling and memetical prowess, and was replicated several years later yet again by the South and the North Pacifics;
- Celebrating the South Pacific and the world by hosting events such as Creation Day and Independence Day, where heads of state congregated to honor both the history of the world and the history of the South Pacific;
LAUDING Erinor’s contribution to The South Pacific’s media landscape, reviving and maintaining multiple publications throughout their terms as MoRA, including:
- Regularly publishing editions The South Pacific’s broadsheet, The Southern Journal, during their service as MoRA over multiple terms: realeasing a whopping total of 18 articles during their two month stint as Minister of Regional Affairs in 2020 and 11 editions in total for the first eight months of their non-consecutive ministership,
- Working to produce the Treasure Island Report, a compilation and analysis of the events on Pacifica, a planet on which many South Pacific nations also reside, distributing 12 editions during their time as MoRA, an output that was maintained for a further year;
RECOGNISING the impact that Erinor has had on culture and diversity in the South Pacific, including founding the Silicon Pens, a group for all authors in the South Pacific to collaborate and share ideas with other nations and giving talks at various festivals such as TSPride and Independence Day;
THANKING Erinor for their two year service as a member of the Council on Regional Security, the South Pacific’s security body, where they presided over maintaining support to ensure that the South Pacific remains a secure and democratic region for future generations;
AMAZED at Erinor’s non-consecutive two-term stint as delegate, where, in a trend continued to this day, they presided over a never-before seen swell in support for the delegacy by:
- Regularly and persistently communicating with other nations through public messages, interacting with the international community of nations to build rapport amongst other national governments,
- Promoting SWAN, the South Pacific’s service for shoring up support, being the first delegate to properly debut with and promote the program,
- Publishing the “Delegate’s Blog,” a series of communiqués designed to explain policy and increase support amongst other nations, as well as promote the activities of the office of the Delegate in the interests of engagement and transparency;
CONVINCED that Erinor’s work and activities in the South Pacific have left a lasting impact on the region, making it a more secure, active and cultured region through their contributions, and that such contributions should be emulated throughout the multiverse;
Hereby commends Erinor.
