As the first Representative of the Commonwealth to appear before this body I thank you for this opportunity and am honored by this invitation to speak before all of you. I am aware that you all have to address the concerns of your own continent so I will try to keep this as brief an address as possible. As you know relations between the African Continent and Europe have been rocky since the Independence of most of Africa from Colonial Rule. Some view Europe as the cause for all of Africa's problems from the colonial borders to the brutality of colonial rule in some former colonies. Some think that Europe has no business being in African affairs period outside of the colonial ones. Some within the Commonwealth adhere to this belief, but I am not among them. While Europe has its flaws and it has made its share of mistakes in the past the actions of Africa are its own, the rest of the world may have had some influence on the inner workings of the Continent but it was the choice of the people of Africa which led them to where they are today. Further, thanks to nations like France possible catastrophe in nations like Mauritania and Nigeria have been avoided and the regions are stabilized under the protection of Europe. It is my sincere hope that one day Africa will be able to stand on its own two feet, but for now much of Africa is divided and unstable.
The East African Commonwealth was what the people of Tanzania, Zambia, and Malawi came up with as a solution to this disunity and chaos. An old idea centered around the idea of African Unity and cooperation over a century old, but nevertheless a good idea. In the year since the 2nd Commonwealth Charter was signed the Commonwealth has prospered with support from the international community, Europe included. Even today Europe is a major trade and economic partner to the EAC and we would like to further this. The EAC is a developing nation and as such we welcome foreign investment in any of our sectors. Not only does this promote the development of the Commonwealth, but it helps ensure cooperation between Africa and Europe.
However, while economic support for the EAC is appreciated, the Commonwealth is far better off then most of Africa. Most of the continent is without power, fresh water, food, and medicine leaving millions in poverty. One of the EAC's long term goals is the establishment of a stable African Continent, and to do so we are requesting your help. As many of you are no doubt aware the EAC has been busy establishing the Amity Fleet, a global maritime administration focused on aid, exploration, and diplomacy. The branch of the Amity Fleet based in Mauritania and the EAC itself once operational in 2025 will be launching Operation Palisade, a continent wide initiative to improve the living standard across all of underdeveloped Africa. This operation would involve the establishment of small solar power plants that would both provide energy and purify water for the population of 22 regions across Africa. This operation is also working with the international agency Habitat for Humanity to establish stable buildings and homes for these areas. What I am requesting from Europe is material aid. Lumber, scaffolding, steel, computer chips, and anything else that can be used to build up and repair the damage that half a century of war has destroyed.
In addition to this operation the EAC will be launching two flagship programs from the Amity Fleet Academy following its completion in 2025. These two programs are the International Medical Exchange (IME) and the Global Education Initiative (GEI). The IME will focus on establishing an international medical organization that will allow for a quick response to both disaster scenarios and outbreaks along with a full time mission of improving the medical quality for citizens in underdeveloped regions of the world. The program is completely voluntary and open to anyone in the medical field. The GEI is similar but with a focus on teaching based jobs to educate students across the developing world to prevent radical ideas from taking root and develop an educated base for the nations in question.
The last item I will mention is the Amity Fleet Academy. While the Academy is funded by the EAC it is open to anyone who wishes to attend and service within the Amity Fleet is not required upon graduation though students will graduate with the certification to do so. Any nation that wishes to reserve slots within the Academy may reach out to the Amity Fleet to do so.
I very much look forward to establishing a stronger connection to the powers of Europe over the coming years and securing peace for our peoples. I will remain in Europe for the next week and will welcome any talks for furthering relations and improving ties between Africa and Europe.

The following proposal establishes the European Air Pollution Agency (EAPA) to be headquartered in Strasbourg. The EAPA will be a DEU agency that will act as a watchdog over levels of air pollution in DEU-countries that have opted into membership of the agency and will have the power to penalise local and national governments that do not act on air pollution in their jurisdiction or attempt to breach EAPA air pollution regulation. As well as a watchdog, the EAPA will set air pollution limits tailored to different nations and different environments within nations and set out regulations on air pollution reduction in order to ensure that nations who are members of the agency take action to reduce air pollution and make Europe a cleaner, healthier and more sustainable continent while balancing the needs of industry to ensure that economic growth is not adversely affected by new regulations and limits.
The need for Europe-wide air pollution regulation is more crucial than ever. Air pollution causes approximately 400,000 early deaths annually across the DEU, a serious number that shows the gravity of the situation that the EAPA is being formed to deal with. The country with most premature deaths due to air pollution is Germany, closely followed by Italy, which is followed by Poland, the ADE and France. It is clear that air pollution is striking the most at the economic and population core of Europe, making it great threat to the health and quality of life of most European citizens. Air pollution is a man-made disaster in the DEU and it is up to actions of this great assembly to rid Europe of its "biggest environmental risk to public health."(Image)
