[Draft] Commend 10000 Islands

Postby Lenlyvit » Sun Apr 11, 2021 4:26 pm

So, this is something I started working on a few weeks ago shortly after I returned from retirement. Right out of the gate I'll say that I'm not in any way involved in XKI anymore, being only exclusively in TRR and THTHI and bring in the RRA. Despite saying that I know some will latch onto the fact that I'm a former 3 time WA Delegate, 2 time TITO commander, and former Registrar-General of the region I've written this for. Don't let that distract from the resolution or the fact that XKI is deserving of a second commendation. I know this resolution could use more information and work, so if you have any thoughts constructive feedback would be appreciated.

The Security Council,

Recognizing the fact that 10000 Islands has been commended once before by this body through Security Council Resolution #30 (SCR#30), a resolution passed 11 years ago in order to recognize the regions outstanding contributions to the international community;

Believing that while at that time SCR#30 was detailed with information regarding the regions contributions, it didn't cover the breadth of accomplishments it could have in regards to their military missions as well as interregional influence and is now missing 11 years of further contributions towards the Multiverse;

Noting that over its 18 years of existence 10000 Islands has influenced multiple regions and their systems of government, being a model that other successful regions such as Yggdrasil and 00000 A World Power have used to build their own regional governments off of;

Emphasising the impact 10000 Islands has had on the interregional community due to their status as one of the top 10 largest regions in NationStates, a position they’ve held for well over the last 11 years with the majority of that spent having over 1,000 individual nations through the following:

  • Spreading interregional goodwill through opening embassies with regions that have various cultural focuses, such as International Democratic Union and Europe which focus on General Assembly matters, Greater Dienstad and The Western Isles which focus on storytelling and book authoring, and The Order of The Grey Wardens as well as Texas which focus on defending innocent communities.
  • Bringing various regional cultures together through the creation and hosting of cultural events such as the Harry Potter and the Festival of Friendship as well as the Tea House of Cards event which celebrated international artwork in three major regions throughout NationStates.

Expanding upon the information regarding the Ten Thousand Islands Treaty Organization provided in SCR#30 by giving a more in-depth description of their accomplishments that they have done over their last 18 years of existence:

  • An extensive mission completion of over 3,500 missions in 18 years to help and protect innocent communities from raider aggression, 2,300 more missions since the passage of SCR#30.
  • The advisory role taken on by the regional military command structure towards the innocent founderless regions, where they've advised regional governments on how to keep an eye out for raider nations embedded within the community in order to subvert the native will.
  • The extensive role TITO has taken towards keeping innocent communities safe by assisting those communities in refounding their regions, such as regions like Deutschland, Australia, and India which have gone on to host successful and vibrant communities after achieving safety from raider aggression.

Thanking 10000 Islands for their efforts to expand inclusion within World Assembly matters by the pioneering of a system dedicated towards encouraging WA authorship, created by the Taco Island Charities regional business to provide World Assembly authors with the regional currency of Tacos for writing, submitting, and passing resolutions within both houses of the World Assembly;

Hereby commends the region 10000 Islands.

• The extensive role TITO has taken towards keeping innocent communities safe by assisting those communities in refounding their regions, such as regions like Deutschland, Australia, and France which have gone on to host successful and vibrant communities after achieving safety from raider aggression.

• The anti-fascist efforts undertaken by the organization in an effort to stamp out hateful ideologies, where the organization has deployed to fascist regions such as The NSIA and The Iron Confederacy to help eliminate ideologies that advocate for genocide and race inequality.

Thanking 10000 Islands and the Ten Thousand Islands Treaty Organization for their many anti-coup efforts undertaken over the length of their existence within the NationStates Multiverse, which culminated in the ability for nations within the various Feeders and Sinkers they deployed to to choose their own systems of government. These efforts led to deployments within the regions of:

The North Pacific during the attempted coup of 2004;

The Rejected Realms in the 2 attempted coups of 2007 and the one attempted coup of 2010;

The South Pacific during the now infamous Devonitions Coup of 2010, and

Lazarus during the attempted 2015 coup;

• and The East Pacific during the most recent attempted coup of 2019.

Appreciating 10000 Islands' initiative to expand inclusion within World Assembly matters by the pioneering of a system dedicated towards encouraging WA authorship, created by the Taco Island Charities regional business to provide World Assembly authors with the regional currency of Tacos for writing, submitting, and passing resolutions within both houses of the World Assembly;

These efforts led to deployments within the regions of:

The North Pacific during the attempted coup of 2004, where the founder of the New Pacific Order named Francos Spain tried to annex the feeder for their empire;

The Rejected Realms in the single day occupations of Red Kagran, delegate of Taijitu (2007); Emperor Matthuis, delegate of The North Pacific (2007); and Aegara, delegate of Grand Central (2010);;

The South Pacific during the now infamous Devonitians Coup of 2012;

Lazarus during the attempted 2015 coup by the rogue Delegate Stujenske, where 10000 Islands deployed almost 300 military and non-military nations to protect the Sinker region; and,

The East Pacific during the most recent attempted coup of 2019 by Scardino.

Appreciating XKI's initiative to expand inclusion within World Assembly matters by the pioneering of a system dedicated towards encouraging WA authorship, created by the Taco Island Charities regional business to provide World Assembly authors with the regional currency of Tacos for writing, submitting, and passing resolutions within both chambers of the World Assembly;

You're way under the character limit, so you should include a lot more stuff imo, especially since this is a second commendation for the region

A good start, but to go above and beyond the now-repealed SC30, you need to add some more info which there can be a lot you can add.

Feel like you overlooked this part on an editing sweep, I'd say "through the following" by itself would be fine. I am biased but I agree with Honey, I feel like there's more you could add, like some of the treaties and things like that.

Some of the treaties were done by me, isn't that bias?

10KI likely has good treaties that you could mention which were written by others, if you are worried about bias. I have to say that this is a good start, but could use more content.

Well, the only three treaties not passed during my terms as delegate were the original alliances with Texas and Yggdrasil plus the PfS treaty. That doesn't leave much to add, but I did realize that I left out TITO's anti-coup work in the GCRs and I'll make sure to add that in.

Alright, so I've added a second draft that expands upon anti-coup efforts as well as anti-fascist efforts. I've removed the list format, removed the region code from every mention of XKI but the first and last, and tried to save characters for other things. I'm at about 4,661 characters at this time, although I'm not sure I like how the new stuff is written so opinions and advice is appreciated.

I don't think there's really any comprehensive links to what happened during the coups. I guess my commendation of Texas has more detail, I was hesitant to use it due to plagiarism but since it's mine I might use those clauses https://www.nationstates.net/page=WA_pa ... /council=2 .

The anti-fascist efforts undertaken by the organization in an effort to stamp out hateful ideologies, where the organization has deployed to multiple strong fascist regions that have lost their founding nations due to godly wrath brought down from above.


Which regions, specifically?

The Iron Confederacy is one, I know there are others but can't remember off the top of my head. I think they were there during the attack on The Coalition of Fascist Nations too.

Edit: They were in the attack on The NSIA as well.

You should include those examples into the commendation then :p


Also: is mentioning Harry Potter legal? I know it’s the name of the event, and Harry Potter is in NS issues canon, but it seems way too much of a real life reference (unless a mod can clarify here)

A mod clarification would be nice, yes. Also, would mentioning them be okay? I wasn't sure if it would because of the names and giving their successors advertisement in the case of TIO.

Understandable, but if you're worried about bias, it probably doesn't help to have an alt in said region. Regardless of how inactive that alt may be.

Most people who commend a region have a puppet in said region, so I'm not afraid of that kind of bias. I don't want to add something into the resolution that I myself did, that's what I meant when I said that.

I mean we should be very concerned about bias imho opinion. a individual who is well versed on SC matters and who have written several resolutions and even has been the WAD of a large region twice once said

"If a member of a region writes a commendation for the region they're in, then that would be considered a self-commendation."

and

"Just to be clear, the SC has always been a stickler about who the author is when it comes to commendations/condemnations. Self-commanders and self-condemners have an inherently biased viewpoint of their own achievements."
If my tone is coming off as a little harsh, please call me out on it, I rarely mean to come off that way.

Against, XKI isn't worthy of a second commendation. Might be for if this was a replacement for the first.

I'm not involved in XKI anymore, nor is anything in this proposal related to anything I did while I was there. Your logic is flawed.

I would argue that the fact two other very successful regions modeled their government off of XKI, that they've extensively worked against feeder coups (including in TNP, where you are), that they've had a hand in multiple anti-fascist operations, and that they've continued protecting innocent regions for almost 18 years is warranting a second commendation.

I mean, I did mention TIC and other fash regions several times in my resolutions. I don’t think showing off their annexation does much to legitimise or recruit for them, especially if it’s passworded/refounded

Did you not just admit to having a nation there, still being on their forums and discord? Is your legacy not tied with theirs? Is writing a commendation for a region not "getting involved" by shoving them into a spotlight you have to defend and fight for? I mean last I checked most uninvolved people don't in fact have access to their forums or discords. Unless things have changes in which case I would like 1 access please.

And you really didn't stutter when you said ""If a member of a region writes a commendation for the region they're in, then that would be considered a self-commendation." to others. But obviously we should build in an exception for you?

But you know you're right it's "my" logic that is flawed.
If my tone is coming off as a little harsh, please call me out on it, I rarely mean to come off that way.

I would argue that the fact two other very successful regions modeled their government off of XKI, that they've extensively worked against feeder coups (including in TNP, where you are), that they've had a hand in multiple anti-fascist operations, and that they've continued protecting innocent regions for almost 18 years is warranting a second commendation.

And I would counter that XKI's long track record of attempting to undermine certain GCRs both publicly and privately, along with their unwarranted invasion of Osiris and the toxicity shown to a player who left XKI are all very good reasons why it might not even deserve one.
Totally not MadJack, though I hear he's incredibly smart and handsome.
