Below is every World Assembly resolution ever passed.

Commend The Templar High Council

The Security Council,
Realizing that throughout the universe there are nations which specifically focus on contributing significantly to building the international literary collective,

Acknowledging that The Templar High Council is a nation which has focused on developing the international literary collective, particularly in the genre of fantasy,
Appreciating The Templar High Councils efforts in protecting The Council of the Multiverse by quickly organizing a refounding of the region when the previous founder was unwilling to protect the group, then subsequently as its founder, ultimately ensuring that the collaborative literary group can further the international art of storytelling,
Lauding that this Council of the Multiverse has, under the direction of The Templar High Council:
Helped international authors improve in their authorship of fictional realms that they wish to build by providing pre-publication feedback,
Helped in the publicization of collaborative fictional universes that authors have an opportunity to contribute to,
Compiled vast resources for authors from all nations that may be used to develop their settings,

The aftermath of the fall of a region full of pocket-sized monsters and how a valiant rebellion rises to oppose them,
Admiring The Templar High Councils authors, who took a leading role in supporting the authors who established the beginning of universal collaborative stories such as:

Security Council Resolution # 335
Commend Praeceps
A resolution to recognize outstanding contribution by a nation or region.
The Security Council,
Observing that Praeceps was one of the nations that pioneered the formation of The North Pacific Cards Guild, and was subsequently appointed as its first Guildmaster,
Noting The North Pacific Cards Guilds role as the first and largest alliance of art collecting nations and further noting the high concentration of influential collecting nations involved within its programs,
Realising that the efforts of Praeceps as Guildmaster are largely responsible for such successes, including:
Investing large amounts of time processing artwork requests, accepting new guild members, tallying votes for various events, and outwardly representing the guild on the international stage,
Creating the 31 Days of Legendaries Event, resulting in higher guild publicity and membership growth due to the massive distribution of highly valued artwork,
Overseeing the production and execution of the The Comprehensive Guide to NationStates Cards, one of the most frequently cited references among collectors; The Monthly Snapshot, a semi-frequent and comprehensive artwork news source; and The Monthly Card Collection Competition, where nations compete to create collections matching a predetermined theme and have the chance to win highly coveted art pieces,
Recruitment of nations within the guild to serve in the leadership, many of which who have been previously recognised by the Security Council for their own outstanding achievements to the guild and beyond,
Peacekeeping through the humane punishment of nefarious nations who violate the rules of the North Pacific Cards Guild, such as the condemned Noahs Second Country, who was caught in the egregious act of stealing bank funds from a fellow guild member,
Recognising that Praeceps efforts in modeling The North Pacific Cards Guild into a professional organisation led to the eventual establishment of the Ministry of Cards within The North Pacific, permanently establishing their legacy within the largest region in the world,
Appreciating the open, community-driven nature of Praeceps, as indicated by their narratives in publications such as The Monthly Snapshot and in interregional festivals, where they encourage other regions to develop similar programs and offer their assistance in doing so, inspiring artwork programs in regions such as 10000 Islands,
Lauding Praeceps for their other contributions to The North Pacific, such as by serving two terms as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, where they resurrected the previously inactive diplomatic corps and remodeled it into an efficient organisation, as well as introducing the practice of releasing regular updates during the term which has since been adopted by other ministries,
Applauding Praeceps for their contributions to The North Pacific's Ministry of Culture through their role as Deputy Minister, where they organise 'Social Deduction Games' - fun games that help to foster regional activity and create bonds between nations,
Acclaiming Praeceps for their legislative contributions in The North Pacific, which include proposing constitutional amendments that clarified procedures regarding security checks and prohibiting members of the Security Council from being members while having a lapsed citizenship, boosting regional security,
Praising Praeceps for their positive international impact via the World Assembly as the author and co-author of several World Assembly proposals and resolutions, such as:
The Security Council proposal to remove password protection from The Union of the Axis Powers, a fascist and Nazi-aligned region, which, despite not passing, spurred the regional leadership to destroy and attempt to reestablish the region, getting captured by anti-fascist forces in the process,
Security Council Resolution #303 Commend Destructive Government Economic System, the first resolution to commend a nation for their participation in the international artwork trade due to their community contributions and artwork preservation efforts,
Security Council Resolution #334 Commend The Templar High Council, a unique resolution that commended a nation renowned for their in-depth and purposeful storytelling, which is revered around the multiverse,
Determining Praeceps to be an exemplary nation dedicated to assisting both their regional and the international community via their outlined actions,

Security Council Resolution # 336
Commend The Western Isles
A resolution to recognize outstanding contribution by a nation or region.
The Security Council,
Noting that The Western Isles (TWI) has for over five years fostered a vibrant, thriving community of nations with immense participation in the realms of diplomacy, trade relations, collaborative unions, and the proliferation of mass media;
Applauding the welcoming attitude that new nations are introduced to upon entering TWI, as demonstrated by:
The numerous well-written guides for nations to build and maintain (for example) thriving economies, militaries, and foreign relations networks,
An active, well-equipped system of regional mentors to assist nations in their rise to prosperity, and
The existence of the International District, a neutral and open forum for nations and regional representatives to discuss international relations, seek and give advice on nationbuilding, and introduce new nations to TWI's diplomatic scene;
Hailing TWI's diplomatic spirit as demonstrated by the formation of these notable regional socioeconomic unions and alliances:
The League, a complementary intraregional organ to the World Assembly that aims to maintain regional peace and stability, and to facilitate international relations, alliances, as well as policy-guiding treaties and initiatives,
The Cooperative Union (CU), a political and economic union intended to promote socioeconomic stability which is also TWI's largest economic bloc,
The Regional Trade and Economic Agreement (RTEA), which aims to provide a credible forum for member nations to negotiate matters pertaining to all aspects of their respective economies and trade affairs, as well as to collectively strengthen their economies, and
The Eterna-Argean Friendship Accords (EAFA), a cooperative agreement between the nations within and bordering the Eterna and Argean Seas that seeks to foster a sense of camaraderie and mutual trust, as well as to establish protocols for shared jurisdiction over their respective Seas;
Saluting the formation of these notable defense organizations and forces as a means to guarantee regional security:
The Mesder Sea Treaty Organization (MSTO), an intergovernmental military alliance which has fostered immense technological advancement and wielded much political influence within TWI,
The Coalition of Free Nations (COFN), an intergovernmental military and socioeconomic pact which has fostered peace, stability, and development within TWI,
The Argean Rapid Response Force (ARRF), a rapid engagement military force comprised of specialized units from the nations of Vancouvia, Noronica, and Ostehaar that aims to respond swiftly to threats and hostile maneuvering in the age of modern warfare, and
The Raedlon Organization of States (ROS), a military and socioeconomic alliance of nations within the Raedlon peninsula intended to provide mutual defense and foster economic relations and stability between member states;
Impressed by the exceptionally high prevalence and influence of these intraregional organizations within TWI, a region of just under 170 nations;
Cognizant of TWI's collective resolve in pursuing peace after the intraregional Second Imperial War, an accomplishment made all the more remarkable by the significant ideological divide between the Eastern Union of Socialist Republics (EUSR) and the MSTO, the two warring parties;
Praising TWI for their initiative, vision, and leadership in hosting the Western Isles Climate Response Council, a non-partisan intergovernmental organization which aims to perform research on alternative energy production sources and help nations respond to climate change;
Admiring TWI's dedication to disseminating journalism on a global scale via The Western Isles News, a non-profit media news cooperative that aggregates articles from newspapers across the region and distributes them to a large audience both within and beyond TWI;
Appreciating TWI's commitment to promoting the creative arts with the Citizens of The Isles, a creative writing publisher sponsored and maintained by a decentralized cooperative of TWI residents;
Hopeful that this resolution will encourage other regions to emulate the distinguished, honorable example The Western Isles has forged;
Hereby commends The Western Isles.

Security Council Resolution # 337
Repeal: “Commend The Holy Principality of Saint Mark”
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.
Security Council Resolution #302 “Commend The Holy Principality of Saint Mark” shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
The Security Council,
Recognising the work of The Holy Principality of Saint Mark (hereinafter referred to as Saint Mark) in the West Pacific and other regions, and the respect they command across these regions,
Regretting, however, that their actions and impact were painted in an inaccurate and incomplete light in their commendation, due to the presence of vague, unsubstantiated claims, and the citation of many actions that are dubious in terms of creating a lasting positive impact,
Noting that their actions in introducing the new Imperial culture and amending the Manners of Governance of the West have failed to confer a lasting positive impact on the West Pacific, and were in fact reversed by their immediate successor as Delegate,
Frustrated that their work in Albion was not explained in context of the culture or history of the now-inactive region, thus failing to prove the significance of the work,
Confused by the citation of their contributions to The Sasquatch Republic, given that the region has never exceeded 25 nations in population and is entirely unremarkable in the greater world,
Challenging the citation of their service as Arbiter in the Conclave of The East Pacific in the commendation, given that their only action as Arbiter was their resignation in which they apologised for their inattention after an Advisory Question was filed,
Observing that during their tenure as the longest serving Priest of Osiris, they had presided over just a single case in the Council of Priests, and that it remains the only case to have been ruled on by the Council of Priests its over two years of existence, a fact which betrays their lack of accomplishment in the position and the limited utility of the judicial system which they had crafted, which was incompatible with the system of government in Osiris,
Disappointed by the erroneous description of Saint Marks assistance in forming the News Partnership Framework which established the governance and goals of the NSToday organization, as the governance and goals of the organization are detailed in its Charter, not the News Partnership Framework,
Further noting that the News Partnership Framework, the establishment of which Saint Mark was credited with assisting, was never publicly explained throughout its existence, and later required renegotiation with all previous partners, due to its ineffectiveness and lack of benefits to participating regions, as admitted by NationStates Todays then-Public Relations Director,
Questioning, therefore, the effectiveness of the News Partnership Framework in promoting the development of news media in partnered regions, and thus its benefit to the media scene in NationStates at large,
Exasperated further that the commendation failed to go into sufficient detail concerning the alleged achievements of Saint Mark in many cases, including:
What kind of internal reform they encouraged in The Pacific, how it was achieved, which regions in the conflict involving The Pacific they helped reach accord;
How they [responded] to events both internal and external in a thoughtful, reasoned way as Delegate of the West Pacific; and
Their efforts at "protecting and guiding new nations" in Karma;
Concluding that due to the above failures present in the resolution, it does not sufficiently prove its thesis that Saint Mark was a leader in many aspects of the world,
Hereby repeals SC#302 Commend The Holy Principality of Saint Mark.

Security Council Resolution # 338
Commend Verdant Haven
A resolution to recognize outstanding contribution by a nation or region.
The Security Council,
Aware of the existence of plots and schemes that threaten to tear apart nations across the multiverse,
Admiring Verdant Havens continuous efforts and repeated success in identifying and bringing these conspiracies to light through a series of far-reaching operations, such as:
Operation #1130 (Flash Crash Cash Dash), which pinpointed the origin of a sudden crash and subsequent rise in the stock market of countless nations,
Operation #1155 (The Banquet of Walnuts), which brought to light acts of misconduct perpetrated by religious leaders involving dancing and a disturbing quantity of walnuts,
Operation #1224 (Shine On, You Crazy Diamond), which unveiled several invaluable diamonds as lab-created and passed off as real by illicit dealers,
Operation #1243 (Kicking Back), which revealed the corrupt activities of numerous judges, who sent inmates to select private prisons in exchange for money,
Operation #1409 (Happy Pranksgiving!), which put a spotlight on collateral damage caused by the reckless antics of TV-show pranksters,
Operation #1410 (Lives On-Line), which exposed a series of terrorist threats towards AI-run hospitals demanding a ransom in exchange for the decryption keys to said hospitals,
Observing that the region of Forest has made great strides in fostering care for the environment, promoting intellectual thought, and contributing to other communities, which ultimately resulted in their commendation,
Recognising Verdant Havens numerous contributions to Forest during their two terms as Forest Keeper, including:
the implementation of the Conscience of Forest position to oversee and expand Forests monthly environmental action program,
boosting regional involvement through organising regional activities and competitions such as the Annual Photo Contest as well as heading Forests Crystal Jubilee Flag Design Contest, which celebrated Forests fifteenth anniversary as a region,
reforming the foreign affairs branch with the formation of the Diplomatic Root position to oversee and run the regions ambassadorial program, the appointment of several new ambassadors, and the creation of 5 new embassies,
Noticing Verdant Havens dedication to ensuring an open and honest government, reflected in their introduction and continued publication of monthly Government Transparency Reports, in which they provide a regular and thorough update on the state of the region during their time as Forest Keeper,
Applauding Verdant Havens efforts in streamlining the constitution of Forest through two separate constitutional amendments, which simplified the diplomatic process and allowed for the appointment of temporary regional officers in the case of an extraordinary circumstance,
Acclaiming Verdant Haven for their contributions to this very body, most notably their co-authorship of General Assembly Resolution #522 Repeal Protecting Sites of Religious Significance, which repealed a flawed and overreaching resolution that prevented the exhumation of any grave that contains the body of a practitioner or a present religion for any purpose,
Saluting Verdant Havens remarkable service to Forest and the international community at large, believing that such dedication should be formally recognised by this body, and hoping that such recognition should serve as further incentive for the continuation of their work, hereby:
Commends Verdant Haven.
