World Assembly Resolutions
Since the rise of the World Assembly from the ashes of its predecessor, the Bureaucracy That Cannot Be Named, WA member nations have worked tirelessly to improve the standard of the world. That, or tried to force other nations to be more like them. But that's just semantics.
Below is every World Assembly resolution ever passed.

Security Council Resolution # 363
Commend Imperium Anglorum
A resolution to recognize outstanding contribution by a nation or region.
The Security Council,
Aware of the prior Security Council Commendation of Imperium Anglorum (IA) for their work in the General Assembly (GA), but believing that their contributions to the World Assembly (WA) and the world at large since this initial commendation to be significant enough to warrant a second commendation,
Recognizing IA's development of InfoEurope, recording the content of all proposals submitted to the WA, voting statistics of at-vote resolutions updated hourly for the benefit of scholars and authors of the WA; as well as EuroTracker, which allows nations within Europe to learn which other nations they have and have not endorsed, significantly contributing to Europe having the highest average amount of WA endorsements per nation,
Lauding IA's service as delegate for Europe for an incredible five and a half years, during which time they contributed the following to the region:
Authorship of the Treaty of the Northern Passage, which most notably established mutual government recognition, embassies, non-aggression and defense, open communication, supporting domestic GA authors, and cultural co-operation between Europe and The North Pacific, thereby boosting regional security, intelligence, and influence in the World Assembly for both regions,
Authorship of the Foreign Policy (World Assembly) Act, which confirmed the ascension of Europe to the World Assembly Legislative League, furthering Europe's role as one of the most powerful regions in the WA, and
Continuous authorship of crucial administrative Acts, such as Criminal Law Act, which established the definitions of crimes, maximum punishments for crimes, and the process of determining the punishments for those crimes, all of which had been missing in Europe's legislation and all of which are important in regions as large as Europe,
Noting IAs brief ventures into the Security Council, during which time they authored and passed SC#255 Commend Knootoss, for their authorship of six GA resolutions and their consistent debating in the halls of the Assembly,
Appreciating IA's continued dedication to the GA through the critique of countless drafts, providing platforms for private debate on drafts, and the authorship of several GA guides in order to make the chamber more accessible to newcomers,
Honoring IA's six co-authorships of GA resolutions, accentuating their dedication to international law and helping other authors, most notably including:
GA#440: Administrative Compliance Act by Separatist Peoples, establishing means of punishing those in non-compliance with international law,
GA#445: Greenhouse Gas Cap and Trade Program by Ransium, strictly enforcing maximum emissions of greenhouse gases, ensuring that the environment receives basic protection in member nations, and
GA#486: Prevention of Forced Sterilisation by Maowi and co-authored by Marxist Germany, outlawing the barbaric practice of sterilising people against their will and as such significantly improving worldwide human rights,
Recognizing that while IA's first commendation was largely based on their work in international law, their work has not stopped and has only increased in its diversity and importance,
Praising IA for their authorship of 23 new General Assembly resolutions since their first commendation, most notably:
GA#535: Death Penalty Ban, outlawing all forms of capital punishment outside of military penal codes, preventing the emotional burden of an extra life lost due to a crime, and altogether preventing oppressive regimes from executing those who have committed lesser crimes,
GA#499: Access to Abortion, completing the resolution chain that ensures that there is a reasonable and consistent access to abortion,
GA#514: Ending School Segregation, guaranteeing that children not be discriminated against in their education and allowing parents to demand legal action when their child is being discriminated against,
GA#531: Tariffs and Trade Convention, one of the strongest Free Trade General Assembly resolutions on the books, codifying a set of rules, regulations, and guidelines for free trade that were previously missing, and
GA#412: Public Health and Vaccinations Act, requiring that everybody who is medically able be given vaccines for contagious diseases which pose a threat to public health,
Believing that IA's continued and valuable contributions to international law as well as that of Europe show indubitably that they are worthy of further recognition,
Hereby commends Imperium Anglorum.

General Assembly Resolution # 569
Repeal: “The Rule of Law”
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.
General Assembly Resolution #374 “The Rule of Law” (Category: Civil Rights; Strength: Strong) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
The General Assembly,
Recognizing that GAR #374 The Rule Of Law is a pivotal piece of legislation that upholds the concept of there being a Rule of Law that no entity in society is above, not even government institutions or the socioeconomic elite in a given nation,
Noting, however, that GAR #374 is fatally flawed due to Article 2(a), which Declares that reasonable, good faith exceptions may be made in instances where... some form of immunity is necessary to ensure that government employees or institutions may carry out essential functions that would not otherwise be possible without the guarantee of immunity ,
Unconvinced that any hazard, difficulty, or misplaced benefit of the doubt renders any extent of pre-determined or non-fact-based immunity "necessary" for government officials, other than in regards to legislative immunity,
Unsettled by the prospect that those individuals and institutions entrusted with the right and ability to use violence and force against civilian populations in the interest of keeping law and order, such as in the form of law enforcement forces, could be exempted from liability and responsibility for their actions; which in turn would breed an unjust and false sense of impunity in the abuse of their exclusive right to administer violence and force,
Believing that, with the exception of legislative immunity, it is preferable to ensure all government officials and institutions are answerable to the law and civil action for the consequences of actions taken in their respective capacities, regardless of their position or function as government officials and institutions, rather than to allow incompetence and malice from these entities to go unchecked,
Resolved that a replacement resolution is needed to truly enshrine the spirit of GAR #374 in law whilst eradicating baseless immunity for government officials and institutions,
Hereby repeals GAR #374 The Rule Of Law.

Security Council Resolution # 364
Commend The Holy Principality of Saint Mark
A resolution to recognize outstanding contribution by a nation or region.
The Security Council,
Recognizing The Holy Principality of Saint Mark (Saint Mark) as a nation that has gone beyond the call of duty in the building of regional communities;
Celebrating Saint Mark's innovative actions that helped shape the modern government of the West Pacific (TWP), such as instituting weekly meetings for the regional Cabinet to discuss recent happenings and check the progress of plans as a way to ensure accountability; and as the first Speaker of the Hall of Nations, writing the Etiquette of the Hall that established the functions and procedures of the Hall of Nations as the body composed of all TWP citizens;
Lauding Saint Mark's prioritizing of new nation integration as a crucial aspect of region-building in TWP, via the creation of The West Pacific Master Dispatch as the modern hub for guides, foreign updates, and other resources to be published with a layout and level of organization that allows essential information to be easily found; and their still ongoing term as Chancellor of the University, in which they encourage new nations to enroll and help the classes happen smoothly through several courses, where student nations learn about and participate in the tasks undertaken within each ministry of the region, to become new regional leaders;
Praising Saint Mark's community-focused approach to foreign relations, in which they not only rejuvenated the Ministry of Foreign Affairs through the boost of diplomat numbers, improvement of monthly reports to inform the region of public foreign happenings, and authorship of guides for ambassadors on how to conduct themselves and interact with their assigned regions; but also enhanced relations between TWP and:
Osiris and Balder, via the creation of activities to celebrate the treaties with said regions, respectively the West Osi High School Prom and Dragons of the Frozen Sea events;
Lazarus, via the negotiation of the Treaty of Fùhuó after a large period of Lazarene instability, demonstrating the interest of both regions to enrich the active cultural, diplomatic and military bonds previously set forth by the defunct Chol Covenant treaty;
The South Pacific, via the spearheading of a détente with the laudable intent of reducing years-long tensions between the two large Feeders, that has since resulted in a friendlier relation, despite notorious governmental differences;
The Pacific (TP), via the work behind the scenes to promote peaceful diplomacy between them, Lazarus, and Osiris, paving the way for a treaty between TWP and TP to be re-established after Saint Mark's delegacy;
Applauding Saint Mark's additions to TWP culture, such as their authorship of articles and edition of publications for The West Pacifican from 2017 to 2019, laying the foundations for the eventual revamp and renaming of the regional newspaper into The Western Post during 2020; their creation of the yearly Festival of the Perfections event for the showcase of art, poetry, and writing from nations across the multiverse; and their role in establishing and promoting a platform for TWP nations' representatives to handle situations of international importance, report on national happenings and publish information about their lore;
Noticing that Saint Mark's region-building contributions extend to other regions like Edlhus, which they founded via Marcarius Halohin as a unique region focused on lineage relationships between nations and built as a casual meeting point due to the fact those nations are most often active in other primary regions; contributing to the region by authoring the governing documents known as The Edicts of Edlhus and The Code of Comport, and leading the region's entry into the 2020 UCR Con, an annual interregional event for smaller regions, in which Edlhus had one of the most active booths;
Respecting that Saint Mark's satellite state of Pyo Karma helped shape a thriving community with around 125 World Assembly nations in Karma, by developing the regional lore together with Rigels Light to make Karma stand out from other regions, and helping to maintain the activity of Karma's Path of Enlightenment, in which a resident nation must conclude a task and be approved by the Sages to participate in The Sangha, Karmas legislative body;
Further respecting that Saint Mark's approach to foreign relations is also present in Karma, where as the first Guru of Diplomacy they started Karma's foreign relations, guided diplomats to represent it abroad, and negotiated the friendship treaty with Caer Sidi;
Concluding that Saint Mark's contributions have created a kind and caring environment in several regions, making them a better place for their residents;
Hereby commends The Holy Principality of Saint Mark.

General Assembly Resolution # 570
Disaster Precautions And Responses
A resolution to improve world security by boosting police and military budgets.
The General Assembly,
Recognizing the recent repeal of Resolution 105, Preparing For Disasters,
Believing that the niche of disaster preparedness to now be notably empty, and seeking to fill it with necessary legislation,
Henceforth enacts the following into World Assembly law:
For the purposes of this resolution, disaster refers to any unintentional disturbance of the social order, especially one resulting in widespread death or destruction of property.
The World Assembly Disaster Bureau (WADB) is tasked with the creation, operation, and maintenance of systems designed to detect and predict disasters.
All individuals or organizations which are responsible for any structures or similar systems especially prone to disasters in the case of failure of said systems or reasonably likely natural event are required to apply routine maintenance to these systems, and create risk assessments as to the probability of any disasters, the scale of the disaster, and feasible ways to ensure that such disasters never come to fruition. These risk assessments shall be sent in full to the WADB.
Member-nations are urged to create appropriate response plans to potential disasters, and to initiate the formation of disaster response forces, which should help reduce the effect of any disasters, should they occur.
The creation of nationally-based systems in order to gather and disseminate information regarding imminent and ongoing disasters is strongly encouraged.
The WADB shall share information on imminent and ongoing disasters detected to national governments as needed, alongside recommended response and prevention plans. Outside of the information directly needed to be shared to any affected nations by a detected disaster, all information disclosed to the WADB by member-nations shall be kept confidential. In extreme cases, the WADB may request intervention by a third-party for aid to be sent to the affected nations, in coordination with the International Humanitarian Aid Coordination Committee.
Member-nations met with a financial burden as a result of this resolution are permitted to submit a request for aid to the WADB, which shall be evaluated and responded to promptly, with approval based on the level of demonstrable need for aid, at the discretion of the WADB. In response, the WADB may supply manpower or financial aid through the World Assembly General Fund.
Non-member-nations are permitted to submit information on potential or ongoing disasters to the WADB, but information submitted by non-member-nations shall be met with high levels of discretion in order to prove their accuracy. In cases where non-member-nations are at high risk, the WADB is permitted to provide information on imminent or ongoing disasters, on a discretionary basis. Non-member-nations are not permitted to receive the aid, as laid out by this resolution.
The WADB is instructed to research techniques and technologies to help detect, prevent, and respond to disasters. In the instance that these techniques and technologies prove useful, the WADB is instructed to make information regarding relevant research readily available to member-nations. The WADB is permitted to make a discretionary call in the case that the research undergone has produced particularly worrying or concerning results, that should be kept out of the hands of potentially malicious actors that it may reach if publicly released.
The WADB is instructed to work with relevant committees as necessary in order to ensure that all disaster situations are handled with the utmost efficiency and care.
This resolution is not to be construed as preventing or getting in the way of any prior or future legislation regarding more specific instructions or regulations on disasters.

Security Council Resolution # 365
Commend Pope Hope
A resolution to recognize outstanding contribution by a nation or region.
The Security Council,
Identifying Pope Hope as an ardent defender of regional autonomy and a significant contributor to the betterment of many international communities,
Thinking of Pope Hopes humble beginnings as a native of Nasicournia, a historical region home to a unique and vibrant culture which participated in many areas of the international community, where their contributions include:
Assisting the early development of the region through the creation of the regional forums, effectively organizing regional affairs and providing essential hubs for regional activity,
Creating and leading the NasiCorps military and the Nasicournia Intelligence Agency, both reaching extraordinary levels of success for their time with over 250 military deployments and 40 active intelligence agents at its peak,
Overseeing the region's growth and international mission as Delegate at multiple points in time, establishing early alliances with regions such as Texas, Middle Earth, The North Pacific (TNP), and Equilism,
Applauding Pope Hopes work to protect Nasicournia from external threats following the departure of its founder Nasicournius, successfully repelling several invasions by some of the most notorious invader groups of the time. Pope Hope's diligence moved Nasicournians to the point of elevating the nation to serve as the regions new founder,
Observing Nasicournias admission into the Alliance Defense Network (ADN), an interregional organization originally created to protect member regions from invasions, and the shift of Pope Hopes focus to the cause of protecting regions from invading forces,
Admiring Pope Hopes brief yet impactful stint as the Director of Intelligence of the ADN, laying the groundwork for its famed intelligence network, training new intelligence agents and leading numerous operations, most notably to combat Francos Spains infamous, brutal regime in The Pacific. Francos Spain would go on to ban hundreds of nations from the region and attempt to subvert several prominent regions of the time, including TNP,
Noting Pope Hopes remarkable work as Director (head) of the ADN, playing a significant role in its meteoric rise as the largest defender coalition of its time:
Streamlining the internal structure of the ADN through rewriting its constitution which greatly increased its effectiveness as a whole, and establishing a judiciary branch which handled legal disputes within member regions,
Pioneering new counterintelligence methods to reveal threats to the ADN and rebuilding the organizational forums, ensuring operational security and providing reliable hubs for activity,
Recruiting new regions and rapidly expanding its membership tally, peaking at over 60 regions and featuring TNP, The West Pacific, The Rejected Realms, Equilism and other prominent regions in its ranks,
Conducting frequent outreach missions to improve the middling repute the ADN and its members had due to its past actions, resulting in greater trust and cooperation between the natives and the organization in the future,
Organizing some of the largest defenses in history, including defenses of Federal Commonwealth Society, Palestine, The West Pacific and Lazarus, featuring well over 100 defenders in each of those operations,
Praising Pope Hopes monumental efforts to unite the defender community in unparalleled levels of cooperation at the time, harmoniously working with other contemporary organizations in innumerable successful missions including the famed Puppetmaster liberation of TNP from the followers of Francos Spain in 2004 and setting a strong precedent for future defenders to follow,
Lauding Pope Hopes actions to oppose Pixiedances coup of TNP which established the tyrannical North Pacific Directorate (NPD), infiltrating the region as Stars of sky to help resistance efforts against the NPD. Pope Hope would also plan and lead one of the largest liberations ever with over 100 liberators joining in to restore TNP back to native control,
Extolling Stars of Skys transient tenure as Delegate of TNP following the fall of NPD, leading the rebuild of the region by supervising vital constitutional reforms and opening a new, neutral regional forums for all regardless of their allegiances, paving the way for the liberal, democratic haven it is now known as,
Appreciating Stars of Sky for founding Stars, a region which initially served as a refuge for the displaced residents of TNP but grew into a lively community of its own, comprising over 200 nations at its peak,
Believing that Pope Hopes immense contributions to this vast multiverse warrants official recognition from this council,
Hereby commends Pope Hope.
