The Security Council,
Heralding the existence of
Kelssek, a nation founded in 2004 which has contributed to many NationStates communities over the years;
Recognizing Kelssek’s contribution to international legislation in both the General Assembly and its predecessor, including:
- UN#167 “International Emergency Number”, which created a standardized telephone number for reaching emergency services;
- UN#205 “Repeal ‘UN Patent Law’”, which prevented monopolization of important medicines and inventions;
- GAR#38 “Convention Against Genocide”, which solidified the World Assembly’s stance against this heinous crime;
- GAR#57 “Refugee Protection”, which helped assist refugees fleeing from persecution; and co-authorship of
- GAR#485 “Repeal ‘Disease Naming Compact’”, which cut down on unnecessary bureaucracy within this Assembly;
Introducing Kelssek’s vast participation and hosting within the sporting spheres;
Affirming that due to the large number of entrants and activity, the difficulty and prestige of hosting a World Cup is one of the greatest honors a sporting nation can achieve;
Praising Kelssek’s forays into the World Cup Cycle, including:
- Co-hosting World Cup 46 alongside Ad’ihan, the last World Cup of the Jolt Era;
- Co-hosting Cup of Harmony 77 alongside Zwangzug, which included lending hosting help to the World Cup 85 Qualifying campaign by way of a Vilitan Plan; and
- Winning the Cup of Harmony 43 title against Whirl Islands;
Asserting that while the hosting of a World Cup is demanding, it is eclipsed by hosting the Olympic Games, which is a time-consuming and taxing undertaking that only the most skilled and trusted nations can handle, due to the thousands of entries and hundreds of events;
Emphasizing that cities within Kelssek have hosted no less than four Olympic Games, including:
- The IV Olympic Winter Games, held in the city of Alavaria;
- The Games of the V Olympiad, held in the city of Outineau;
- Co-hosting the Games of the XII Olympiad alongside Vekaiyu, by the cities of Novonaya and Provinsk; and

Impressed by Kelssek’s athletes achieving a top five medal tally at no less than fourteen Olympic Games at the time of writing, as well as the top medal tally at the VII Winter Olympics in Neverend, Liventia;
Recalling Kelssek’s dominance in the early history of the World Cup of Hockey, which includes the hosting of three editions (13, 20, 39), six podium appearances (5, 8, 9, 13, 14, 19), and one title (14);
Celebrating Kelssek’s other sporting success, including seven Olympic gold medals in water polo (the most in the sport), as well as back-to-back Rugby World Cup titles (11, 12);
Admiring the dedication of Kelssek in curating and contributing to sports history records, nearly singlehandedly in the NSWiki and as part of the administration team in the NationStates Sports Wiki;
Accentuating the longtime residency and diplomacy of Kelssek in The East Pacific;
Saluting Kelssek’s service in The East Pacific's regional government, especially during the crucial reformatory period following The Empire's occupation, including:
- Kelssek's part in framing the first Concordat of The East Pacific;
- Serving as Vizier from 2009 to 2013;
- Serving as Provost in the Magisterium in 2009 and 2011;
- Serving as Arbiter of the Conclave from 2011 to 2013; and

Noting their role as a mediating party in both the Listonian conflict and the Krechzianko-Vladistock War;
Observing the radio newscasts of the Kelssek Broadcasting Corporation, which kept nations aware of conflicts and resolutions throughout the region for over three years;
Concluding that a nation of such impressive contributions to the wider NationStates community should not go unrecognized;
Hereby Commends Kelssek.
