[Lord Dominator]

A resolution to express a position on international affairs and obligations.

Category: Declaration | Type: Declare | Proposed by: Lenlyvit

Description: The Security Council,

Noting that extant within the NationStates multiverse there are a dwindling number of regions created between November 2002 and early April 2003 before founding nations held executive power, excepting those not made immortal by the gods to serve as their machinery;

States that because of their status as not having nations to use these awesome powers, historical regions are uniquely vulnerable;

Enumerates the last remaining historical regions that never acquired an executive founder: Belgium, Bucketheadland, Carioch, Eutopia, EWU, Hattrick, Haven, Lake ilopango, Liberal Paradise, Secularia, Seven Eleven, South Pacific, The AGS Commonwealth, The Proletariat Coalition, The West, User Friendlia, NationStates, Canada, Middle Earth, St Abbaddon, Stargate, Yorkshire, SPACE, and LUE;

Recognizes those historical regions that have since had a founder nation appointed to lead them, including but not limited to: Europe, 10000 Islands, Texas, The Heartland, Wysteria, Nasicournia, Space Sector RPRA, Hell, ISAF2, Subreality, Germany, Kattar, Katasia, USSR, Anarchy, and Axis of Absurdity; and

Remembers the many regions from this period, too many to list, that have ceased to exist.

Believing that historical regions are worthy of preservation, and declares:

The interregional community should protect these historical regions, whether they are founderless now or lose their founders in the future, against subversion or aggression via:

• The writing of interregional protection treaties which can be adopted by those of defender, independent, imperialist and non-aligned ideologies alike to protect historical regions from external military forces.
  
  
• The enactment of measures by governments of historical regions to preempt attack and malicious refounding.
  
  
• The passage or rejection of Liberation resolutions and their repeals based on native support.
  
  
• The establishment of policies by all regional governments to support the native population and governance of historical regions, including political and military intervention where appropriate.

The doctrine of this Assembly is that the expressed will of the native population and its recognized representatives are the supreme authority in deciding a region's policy and its future, including whether and how to implement access controls

With the passage of time, native populations and governments may become silent, indifferent, inactive, or cease to exist entirely, and

Encourages the creation by concerned nations of Caretaker Conservation Administrations (CCAs) to govern historical regions where no legitimate native leaders exist, or where such leaders request them, recommending and recognizing those which:

• Operate independently and do not limit membership based on affiliations outside the region,
  
  
• Require participating nations to be present in the governed region for the duration of their participation in the CCA,
  
  
• Make a good faith effort to honor the history of the region and the preferences of pre-established natives,
  
  
• Prioritize the best interest of the region over that of their members and other organizations,
  
  
• Recruit for and promote active participation in the region to establish new native stakeholders,
  
  
• Vigorously pursue the goal of establishing a healthy, independent region with independent native leadership,
  
  
• Dissolve or subordinate themselves to native administration once native leaders are established, and
  
  
• Do not allow members to serve concurrently in the native administration, nor use proxies to do so.

Establishes this Historical Region Act and authorizes the passage of additional resolutions to advance native rights and regional conservation.

Repeal "Condemn Ever-Wandering Souls”

A resolution to repeal a previously passed resolution

Category: Repeal | Resolution: SC#326 | Proposed by: Quebecshire

---

Description: Security Council Resolution #326 “Condemn Ever-Wandering Souls” shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

The Security Council,

Reiterating that condemnation by this august body is one of the highest forms of punitive recognition a nation can receive for villainy and subversion,

Acknowledging the prior passage of Condemn Ever-Wandering Souls (Souls), which sought to condemn the nominee for their many years as a figure in raiding,

Respecting that the writing of SC#326 is excellent and up to modern standards of quality, though nevertheless unconvinced that the nominee is deserving of recognition by the Security Council for their alleged misdeeds,

Recognizing that SC#236 mentions Souls’ involvement and leadership in numerous raiding organizations, though contending that their career in the multiverse is primarily viewed through their role in The Black Hawks specifically,

Questioning the relevance of the “Iterating” clause, as ensuring the destruction of The Black Riders and “denying [them] any chance at salvation” is not a condemnable act given The Black Riders’ reputation as a repulsive organization which has been forever removed from the plane of existence by divine intervention,

Asserting that Souls’ leadership of The Black Hawks was, on the whole, detrimental to raiderdom due to their advancement of the parasitic and self-defeating “Raider Unity” ideology. Under Souls’ leadership, the Council of Hawks exploited and attempted to vassalize other raider organizations, notably the iteration of HYDRA at the time, decidedly making Souls’ style of leadership damaging to raider objectives,

Recalling that Souls has played a major role in the political alienation of imperialist and Independent regions from supporting invaders, where regions such as The Land of Kings and Emperors and Balder, previously reliable supporters of invasions, were pushed away from raiderdom by Souls’ dogmatic and antagonistic demeanor, thereby adding significantly to the political crisis faced by raiderdom today,

Dissatisfied with the claim that Souls is condemnable in nature, as nations which are most deserving of the designation are those which operate with unmitigated brutality, whereas, in the rare instances where they have produced a viable scheme, Souls has often failed to follow through on their proclaimed nefarious intentions, especially when said intentions were brought to the public eye, such as:

• Hiding from the public eye almost completely in the aftermath of the “Red Phone” intelligence disclosures. Souls repeatedly asserted their interest in subverting and eventually destroying the South Pacific’s legitimate government in these declassified documents, but refused to expend their own effort and later retreated from answering for their boasts,
  
  
• A series of intelligence and subversion operations planned by another organization Souls holds commanding rank in, targeting multiple regions, most notably Balder, which were unsuccessful and abandoned due to poor planning and execution on all fronts, such incompetence and the subsequent public fallout further isolating raider regions in the public discourse,

Delighted that many founded regions were further protected against permanent damage and seizure as a result of Souls’ diplomatic folly. Due to the loss of support from many imperialist and Independent groups, liberating coalitions and their allies have found passing preventative liberations to be of relative ease with minimal controversy, in part thanks to diplomatic repulsion by raiders encouraging more moderate regions to support these measures,

Concluding that while the target resolution is well articulated, Souls lacked ability, efficiency and tactful calculation while leading The Black Hawks, ultimately undermining their own ill-intended goals, dismantling their suitability for condemnation,

Affirming that while Souls held several positions in raiding high command over several years, their contributions to raiderdom have undoubtedly been feeble and that of a cosmic liability, and therefore,

Hereby repeals Security Council Resolution #326 “Condemn Ever-Wandering Souls”.

[Lord Dominator]

A resolution to express a position on international affairs and obligations.

Category: Declaration | Type: Declare | Proposed by: Concrete Slab

---

Description: The Security Council,

Still in shock at recent events which brought all diplomacy to a halt across the multiverse, leading to over four days of stagnation, shaking all nations and organizations to their very core,

Dismayed that this cataclysmic event initiated on the Twenty-Third day of December, occurring right as holiday festivities were reaching their peak for nearly all people in all nations,

Aghast at the sheer destruction wrought by this apocalypse, vastly outshadowing previous multiversal disasters, including the not-infrequent nuclear armageddons and zombie uprisings, and the disastrous reign of the Cosmic Moose and its fury, which dealt a significant blow to the stability of the fabric of reality,

Grateful that the World Assembly headquarters blipped back into reality shortly after the start of the event, being one of the few global hubs that came to existence, and continuing to serve as a marketplace of ideas, and for the return of all functionality with only mild delays upon the restoration of the rest of the multiverse,

Noting that, while there is a theory that purports the multiverse may have been created last Thursday, having it summarily obliterated instead was extremely problematic in regards to the holiday plans of the nations of this Council,

Acknowledging that many nations became lost in a terminal aether, with their futures uncertain, and many believing themselves to be “adrift”, “nonexistent”, or “erased”, and the lasting impact that this may have on the denizens of the universe,

Reflecting on the worry that, for a time, there was the possibility that the multiverse would be reset,

Deducing that, if this outcome had come to pass, untold chaos, lawlessness, and potentially deadly power struggles would have spread throughout the multiverse instead of the usual good tidings and assorted presents,

Lamenting the fact that, since the multiverse is a critical community for many nations, some were not able to celebrate the holidays due to the small inconvenience of the multiverse being in tatters,

Horrified at the massive damage done to the market of national artwork, wiping out tens of thousands of standing asks and bids,

Resolving that to forever commemorate and remember this time of hardship, henceforth, all nations are encouraged to take four days off of this mortal plane, abstain from all worldly activities, and engage in deep introspection, every Twenty-Third of December,

Hereby immortalized the “Holiday Apocalypse”, acknowledging it as a disaster of unparalleled scale and submitting this account of its events on the book of the Security Council for the rest of eternity, or until it is rightfully repealed.

Liberate Islamic States

A resolution to strike down Delegate-imposed barriers to free entry in a region.

Category: Liberation | Nominee: Islamic States | Proposed by: Rhaza

---

Description: The Security Council,

Establishing Islamic States as a region which has devoted its resources to supporting operations of colonialism and oppression against innocent regions,

Aghast that the custodial nation of the region, Islamic states, has rapidly collapsed into a state of nothingness, compelled by miraculous factors beyond the understanding of the world’s governments,

Concerned that the malevolent forces of invading will attempt to secure their effective puppet state from counter-invasion, thereby denying the scorned and mistreated regions of the world a chance at an act of justice,

Calling upon the nations of the global community to spread the Security Council mission of international peace and goodwill by permanently silencing the target region through counter-invasion as retribution for its crimes,

Hereby liberates Islamic States.
