Like West said, you need to expand on this. What is Portugal doing that makes them so successful? Do they have significant cultural events? Do they partner with smaller Lusophone regions? etc. More evidence is needed, and I think you should definitely go more in-depth with this point.Canton Island wrote:PRAISING the community's efforts to turn their region into a harbour of free-speech, free-expression and tolerance as defined by a written constitution, while maintaining a functioning democratic system with fair elections.

Not unique. Most regions have WA delegates and promote goodwill.Canton Island wrote:CONGRATULATING Portugal's promotion of ties with all Portuguese-speaking communities, and even with many Portuguese-speaking individual Nations in all of their works and projects.

This is good and what I was talking about earlier. You should try and go more in-depth with these cultural events. How have they brought the NS lusophone community together?Canton Island wrote:MARVELLED by the abundance of compelling and exceptionally written stories originating in the plethora of historical and political scenarios developed by the community.
Needs elaboration. Worldbuilding isn't necessarily commendable on its own.Canton Island wrote:ADMIRING the innovative and novel concept behind Portugal's Map in which regional influence has a direct link to the portion of land a nation can settle.
What is so innovative about this map? Why should other NS players take interest in it? This needs a lot more explanation.

The problem is that Portugal is not an Anglophone region, but a Lusophone region. I've seen many proposals for the Security Council that are ridiculous and many agree, and when a region with a different culture tries to gain recognition you say it's illegal and other stuff that you made up. And saying that if you want to raid them, it is a disrespect.
Leave these things aside and see that having a region that has a large community and a large culture asking for recognition is already a great event for that community. Leave all other ideas aside and learn what the region has to offer. I lived in that region and I'm prond of that and I support this proposal.

It’s here Wrapper:Platinumism, the uniquely nostalgic and mystical belief that the region's founder will one day return to vanquish and solve all the problems his people face.
As a region’s founder is a nation, this makes the use of the word “his” illegal.
