Greetings to the nation of San Perelligrino Romana,

As a firm supporter of equality I have always promoted equality, in many cases, and at the beginning of my term in office, significant overhauls were made in favour of more equal legislation - there was barely recognition for the female gender, let alone those intersexual or homosexual! All that is now in the past, however. So without further ado, I would like to proceed to offer my nation's application to The Stonewall Alliance.

Nation Name:Reselia
Population: 1.591 billion
Form of Government: Constitutional Government (though more or less dominated by one man for the duration of his lifetime so could be called a Father Knows Best State, in reality)
Head of Government: Lord Horacio Haakon
Head of State (if different): N/A
Official Representative: Herr Lemeto Wolfgang
Monetary Contribution (Optional): NS$2.5 million

Do LGBTQ citizens have equal rights in your nation? Yes, they do.
Has anti-discrimination policy been implemented in your nation? Yes, it has.
Is there marriage equality (e.g. same sex marriage legal) in your nation? Government State Offices passed the corresponding Act in 1967.
Is adoption by LGBTQ citizens legal in your nation? It has been completely legal and equal since the Equanimity Act of 1982.
Is IVF by LGBTQ citizens legal in your nation? Absolutely.
Is gender reassignment surgery legal in your nation? It is so, and is covered by the National Health Service for a specific number of cases every year.
Do LGBTQ couples in your nation get the same tax breaks as married heterosexual couples? Yes.
Any additional information: Numerous acts have been firmly entrenched in government for years now, covering most equality acts we could think of. However, we would be glad to see whether TSA could suggest any further ideas as we may have overlooked some.

Sincerely,
Lord Horacio Haakon

FROM THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
To Sir Charles Seydoux, GCBS, Acting Chairman of the Stonewall Alliance

The Allied States of New Edom is a troubled nation. For the last twenty years we have struggled with civil war, uprisings and political conflicts. One of the recent political conflicts was approximately a year ago when various students, politicians and religiously divergent persons proposed what they called the Manifesto of Liberty. One of the articles they struggled for was a bill of rights such as you have proposed, stating that it upheld values of the World Assembly which are quoted in your charter.

This has been a struggle for our country. We even staged a public debate on the subject of whether or not homosexuality was considered sinful according to the Bible, but unfortunately the leading participants were unable to continue.

I have decided to apply for observer status in your alliance in order to develop greater understanding of the situation, and so that our delegation can determine what actual effect tolerance of the communities, sexual and gender orientations protected by your alliance has on a culture and a nation.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Enclosed are the application forms.

sincerely,
Sif Finnhald,
Acting President of the Allied States of New Edom


Nation Name:The Allied States of New Edom
Population:101,824,000
Form of Government:Republic
Head of Government:Acting President Sif Finnhald
Head of State (if different):President William Touchstone
Official Representative:Count Jonas Falk
Monetary Contribution (Optional):

Has anti-discrimination policy been implemented in your nation?Yes
Is there marriage equality (e.g. same sex marriage legal) in your nation?No
Is adoption by LGBTQ citizens legal in your nation?Yes
Is IVF by LGBTQ citizens legal in your nation?No, but it should be qualified that it is not legal by anyone.
Is gender reassignment surgery legal in your nation?No.
Do LGBTQ couples in your nation get the same tax breaks as married heterosexual couples?No.
Any additional information:The Government of the Allied States is bound by the Morality Act, the compromise by the Council of Five Churches which is the governing principle of law. This is therefore based on the Holy Bible as it has existed since the 5th Century AD.

Communiqué Oifigiúil an Daon-Phoblacht na Nua Corda

The People's Republic has always held that to judge a person on anything but their merits as a human being is among the most grievous wrongs a government can commit. We believe that a the measure of a person lies in their actions, not their appearance, gender or sexual preferences. Furthermore, we believe that the business of the State is to protect and serve the People, not to arbitrarily oppress them or intrude on their personal lives. As such, we wholeheartedly support this alliance, and the Universal Justice it seeks to uphold. While we cannot offer funds in the form of money, our Expeditionary Corps stands ready to offer military aid and to defend alliance members from any aggression caused by their pro-LGBTQ stance.

In Peace,

Greetings!

First of all, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Charles Seydoux and I am the Acting Chairman of the Stonewall Alliance. Our primary purpose is to promote and advocate LGBT rights around the world. By actively campaigning on a global scale, the Stonewall Alliance strives to bring to light many of the issues the LGBT community worldwide faces - from discrimination at work, bullying in school, or the lack of a political voice. Therefore it is my foremost pleasure to welcome thirteen proud nations into our ranks:

- Patroclus
- Ecans
- Signob
- Sedikal
- Grand Soviet Union
- Reselia
- Svobodanaroda
- New Hayesalia
- New Edom
- Nua Corda
- The Scots Republic
- Santos Sergio y Baco
- Capisaria

With new nations joining Stonewall everyday, our Alliance will continue to grow and advocate LGBT and human rights around the globe. Only with your continued support and cooperation, can we begin to eradicate the world of hatred, bigotry, and discrminiation. Please continue to spread the word of love and equality!

Sincerely,

Sir Charles Seydoux, GCBS
Acting Chairman of the Stonewall Alliance

Attention: All official members and observers of the Stonewall Alliance


Greetings,

It is with great pride that I officially announce the one-week period until the beginning of the Pysskl Accords Conference, to be held in Pysskl, Elyomia. The Pysskl Accords Conference is the first official meeting of the member and observer nations of the Stonewall Alliance, one of the sole international organisations dedicated to furthering the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and questioning (LGBTIQ) citizens and promoting education to end discrimination against those belonging to the LGBTIQ communities.

The conference will be held from the 20-22 August, 2012. All proceedings and the official first Congress will be held at the Royal Convention and Exhibition Centre, on the shores of the Centrala River. Delegates are also invited to a State Reception, hosted by HRM the King and HRM the Queen, at the Royal Palace, on the evening of the 21st August. Official representatives to the Stonewall Alliance are cordially invited, as well as national leaders, to attend the Conference.

Accommodation will be provided for all leaders and delegates at the expense of the Royal Elyomian Government. We ask that nations with embassies or consulates in Elyomia make arrangements to stay there, however if this is not possible, accommodation will be provided to them. All arrivals are expected to be made by air at either Pysskl International Airport or REAF Base Pando, about 30 minutes outside of Pysskl via car. Transport will be provided for all delegations to and from the Royal Convention and Exhibition Centre and Royal Palace, as well as to and from accommodation. Adequate security will also be provided, however, leaders are welcome to bring a maximum of 10 security agents armed with small weaponry, such as pistols and batons. If there are any security concerns regarding delegations, feel free to discuss any concerns with myself in order to organise arrangements.

For interested parties and delegations, please contact myself through telegram by the 19th August, with the full names and titles of the delegations and whether security will or will not be brought.

I look forward to working with members of the Alliance in continuing to further LGBTIQ rights in our own nations and around the globe.

Yours,

Information here may be wrong, I'm still working out the finer details with SPR on how the conference will go ahead. The dates are set though. A thread will be up on the 18th August NS time. TG me your delegates, and once the thread is up, I'll be able to have a complete list of delegates that everyone can use. TG also if you've got any problems or questions too!

Official Communiqué of the Teddy Bear Republic Empire

As head of state and government of the people of the Teddy Bear Republic Empire, I am pleased to submit this membership application to the Stonewall Alliance. As a traditionally open-minded nation - something that is reflected the attitude of our populace - LGBTQ rights are considered sacrosanct, even before it was officially made into law in 2002, which, in my opinion, is the proudest bill that I have signed into law during my tenure of this Office. To us, it is just logical - people should not be segregated from or looked down upon by society simply because of their sexuality, and such a belief is now emboldened in the Constitution.

Although we are not a WA nation; we hope that we will be able to advocate for LGBTQ rights elsewhere and hope that our small nation can certainly do its part to protect the freedoms of all people, no matter their sexuality. Our application is attached in this communiqué.

Nation Name: Teddy Bear Republic Empire
Population: 25 million
Form of Government: Unitary Constitutional Presidential Republic with elements of Geniocracy
Head of Government: His Majesty the President, Mikhail Palchensky
Head of State (if different): N/A
Official Representative: Larissa Vladark
Monetary Contribution (Optional): US$50 million (Around T$300 million in Tolars, our national currency)

Do LGBTQ citizens have equal rights in your nation? Yes, they do.
Has anti-discrimination policy been implemented in your nation? Yes, we have laws banning discrimination against LGBTQ, such as discrimination in the workplace.
Is there marriage equality (e.g. same sex marriage legal) in your nation? Yes, same sex marriage has been legal since 2002, since the government was vague about the issue in the past.
Is adoption by LGBTQ citizens legal in your nation? It is legal for LGBTQ citizens to adopt.
Is IVF by LGBTQ citizens legal in your nation? It is legal in the TBRE for them to do so.
Is gender reassignment surgery legal in your nation? Yes, it is legal, and is also partially subsidized by the state.
Do LGBTQ couples in your nation get the same tax breaks as married heterosexual couples? Yes, they do - all married couples, regardless of sexuality, are allowed tax breaks for a certain period time following marriage.
Any additional information: Freedom of one's sexuality, and related freedoms, are protected under the Constitution.

We thank you for your attention in this matter, and look forward to a quick reply.

Teddies of the World, Unite! And may people of the world unite for a common cause.

TO: All Nations
FROM: Sir Charles Seydoux, GCBS; Acting Chairman of the Stonewall Alliance


Greetings!

First of all, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Charles Seydoux and I am the Acting Chairman of the Stonewall Alliance. Our primary purpose is to promote and advocate LGBT rights around the world. By actively campaigning on a global scale, the Stonewall Alliance strives to bring to light many of the issues the LGBT community worldwide faces - from discrimination at work, bullying in school, or the lack of a political voice. Therefore it is my foremost pleasure to welcome six proud nations into our ranks:

- Teddy Bear Republic
- Taronix
- Sierra Confederation
- Urmanian
- YellowApple
- Benjamin Mark

With new nations joining Stonewall everyday, our Alliance will continue to grow and advocate LGBT and human rights around the globe. Only with your continued support and cooperation, can we begin to eradicate the world of hatred, bigotry, and discrminiation. Please continue to spread the word of love and equality!

Sincerely,

Sir Charles Seydoux, GCBS
Acting Chairman of the Stonewall Alliance

The people of Fatattutti are proud to add their voice to the struggle for equality. As our representative to the Alliance we would like to nominate Shoshone Chang, the son of President Mickey Chang and a life-long gay rights activist. We would also like to contribute one billion USD over the next five years toward the operating costs of the Alliance. (That amount will probably be supplemented by private donations.)

Any additional information: It should be noted that Fatatatutian culture stresses a "be who you are" attitude - i.e. any variations in appearance or behaviour are accepted but "gender reassignment" is not seen as he best solution in most cases. It should also be noted that there are no tax breaks for married couples of any kind.

Drawn up and Signed by His Supremeness, Supreme Ruler Pappa Nick P.
Aimed at: The People of the Stonewall Alliance


Dear people of the Stonewall Alliance/Hello Darlings,

Much can be said about our great nation, by both enemies and friends alike. The most important thing is that we have always combined our forces against the enemies that threaten our deepest and most emotional value, the ability to fully develop in whatever means we wish. Do not forget that Grittonia will always be trying to have your back, with our full arsenal standing at the ready to defend the free against the tyrants of oppression. The tyrants will not succeed as we will envelop you in a shield of unwavering, nationalistic and patriotic Grittonian love, aimed at filling you up with wet warmness, like a golden shower in juli. Either way, as I am reading and typing this, talk about multi-tasking, I believe that I'm serviced by a seemingly gay waiter... Or atleast, I think so. He's servicing me with a certain panache and enthusiasm. Anyways, in order to fulfill our never-ending role of the defender of civil rights internationally, we wish to become part of this 'Stonewall Alliance'.
I have included the application at the end of this email.

Many Kisses,

Nation Name: The Pappaïstic Nation of Grittonia
Population: We believe it to be around six billion
Form of Government: Pappaïsm
Head of Government: Supreme Ruler Pappa Nick P.
Head of State (if different): Supreme Ministers Heinrich Klabatz and Dolf Speechwater (de facto); Supreme Ruler Pappa Nick P. (de jure)
Official Representative: Sérvór Michaellus du Mastarch (Little Duke Michaellus of Mastarch)
Monetary Contribution (Optional): We are sure that we could find ourselves to contribute a amount of around one-hundred billion dollars over the space of four years. Further needed financial contribution could be done.

Do LGBTQ citizens have equal rights in your nation? Yes, they do.
Has anti-discrimination policy been implemented in your nation? Currently, the Grittonian nation has no such laws due to the Grorm Grittonii having as base passage 'All humans are equal. No exceptions, seriously.'. Before the Grorm Grittonii, there were no official laws and afterwards, the Grorm Grittonii allowed for severe punishment against bigots and other such persons leading to a almost-nihil figure of problems.
Is there marriage equality (e.g. same sex marriage legal) in your nation? Yes, there is. Ever since 1975, marriages can be between same sex couples.
Is adoption by LGBTQ citizens legal in your nation? While there is a severe shortage of adoption children, it is legal.
Is IVF by LGBTQ citizens legal in your nation? IVF is available to every female citizen, should it be payable by that female or refundable from her Medical Providers
Is gender reassignment surgery legal in your nation? It is legal and usually done in Hastodon-Dentvince, where people from both Cirona and Grittonia can enjoy it.
Do LGBTQ couples in your nation get the same tax breaks as married heterosexual couples?Couples get almost zero to none tax breaks but should they come at a future date, all couples will be able to receive them.
Any additional information: Grittonia has always been a great progressive fist of righteousness and without Grittonia, this Alliance will be a lesser one.
