That's not
necessarily correct. If a proposal was originally drafted [and maybe even submitted, without success] using one nation, but either the original version or a modified one is later submitted using another nation belonging to the same player, then citing the first nation as author or co-author
could be legal.
Precedent.
I think that, ideally, there would have to have been significant involvement by both nations
separately [rather than just in a single & fairly short drafting thread] — and maybe also, as was the case for St Edmund and Bears Armed Mission, a lack of direct political connection between them, but still an explanation given for
why they were cooperating on this — for it to be okay, and GenSec would have to discuss exactly where to draw the line if such a case does occur, but going by that precedent it seems potentially allowable.
