Commend One Small Island
Category: Commendation | Target: One Small Island
Proposed by: Morover | Coauthored by: Thousand Branches | Onsite Thread


The World Assembly Security Council,

Watching the waves crash along the beautiful shores of One Small Island, a bright and golden oasis that has dedicated its existence to the protection and restoration of the realm's most treacherous and unstable warzones,

Confident in this body's previous respect and recognition for the exceptional difficulties that face the dedicated and indelible leaders of warzones,

Touting the astounding work that OSI put into the region of Warzone Sandbox during their term as delegate (the longest consecutive delegacy of any Warzone nation), inspiring nation (400+) and endorsement (125+) numbers unheard of in such an unstable atmosphere, showing exemplary political finesse and dedication to bettering the region, in doing so securing and legitimizing both Warzone Sandbox and warzones all across the realm,

Admiring OSI’s creation and maintenance of the Fa’a Warzone Sandbox - one of the most intricate and thematically apt regional Constitutions in the multiverse - which established the Sandcastle Kingdom and brought in a new era of prosperity and democracy previously unthinkable in Warzone regions,

Impressed by their accomplished political foresight, being able to stall certain political processes when they became a net-negative for a region without alienating any constituents or political leaders, which can be seen through the various changes to founding documents as the region changed and certain forms of government become unviable - an astounding feat given the volatile nature of politics,

Amazed by OSI's work in introducing and being a leader in the Warzone Control Council, a body that would bring new vigor to Warzone Australia and allow it to grow into a flourishing region among the Warzones, allowing the region to become the second-largest Warzone region by endorsement count and helping to establish a native population, while still committing to their autonomy,

Lauding their creation of the Warzone Empire, a multiregional organization established to encourage activity across the Warzones, without infringing on the sovereignty of established Warzones and bringing this niche area of NationStates into a golden era that cannot be overlooked or made negative, despite what other connotations of the word “empire” may imply,

Acclaiming OSI's extensive military accomplishments, as seen through the large-scale introduction of the Warzones to the world of defending, further demonstrating the size that Warzone Sandbox achieved to be able to sacrifice endorsements to engage, and extending the positive nature of its community across the multiverse through such operations as:
  • Several defenses of Warzone Sandbox against numerous major raiding organizations, ensuring that the natives of Warzone Sandbox maintain their regional rights against hostile foreign forces,
  • The liberations of several other Warzones, including Warzone Africa and Warzone Asia, among others, which have saved countless native communities and ensured the success of Warzones for many years to come,
  • Participation in large-scale foreign defender operations, including the liberation of Trovons, the liberation of China, and participation in several counter-sieges on A Liberal Haven, all of which displays an extended defender presence that contributes to the world at large,

Believing in OSI’s abilities to bring in foreign allies beyond the Warzones, an ability achieved by few Warzone politicians, which can be seen through relationships forged with notable regions such as the Rejected Realms, 10000 Islands, Caer Sidi, The Order of the Grey Wardens, and most notably The League, a friendship that has culminated in the creation of The Golden Eagle Pact, a treaty negotiated in major part by OSI,

Sponsoring one of OSI’s most selfless missions to congratulate featured regions via their patronage of A Giant Meteor, bringing their goodwill to regions and nations across the multiverse for over two years,

Sighing lovingly at OSI’s commitment to the fine arts, which can be seen through their curation of numerous international artwork exhibits, including a gallery of over 1600 portraits of men entitled “My Doods”, a child-like collection highlighting the innocence of youth known as “The Refrigerator Door”, a small but pristine conglomeration of butterfly-related works called “Butterfly in the Sky”, a scientific exhibition of frog artwork lovingly dubbed “The Exalted Ones”, and many more,

And smiling at the fact that even a nation traversing the political landscapes of one of the most dangerous regions can have the most beautiful of sunsets,

Hereby commends One Small Island.

Overview
This proposal would commend One Small Island largely for their work in bettering Warzone Sandbox and other Warzone regions as administrator, leader, defender, and liberator. The proposal also mentions the nominee's activity in diplomacy and NS trading cards.

Recommendation
While vague in certain places such as its "Impressed by their accomplished political foresight..." clause, the proposal nevertheless makes a convincing case for the nominee's accomplishments in developing the game's Warzone regions over a long and storied career. The nominee has undoubtedly left a lasting mark on one of the most unique areas of the game, and that ought to be recognized.

For these reasons, the Ministry of World Assembly Affairs recommends voting For the Security Council Resolution at vote, "Commend One Small Island."

Present. That said:
Impressed by their accomplished political foresight, being able to stall certain political processes when they became a net-negative for a region without alienating any constituents or political leaders, which can be seen through the various changes to founding documents as the region changed and certain forms of government become unviable - an astounding feat given the volatile nature of politics,
I think that the proposal is humorously vague in places and could do more to explain why, exactly, these accomplishments were significant and what "prosperity" means in this context.

For.

Despite occasionally vague diction in the text of the proposal, the argument brought forward is more than sufficient to convince me to support this proposal and commend One Small Island.
 
This proposal has received the necessary approvals to enter the formal queue. Barring it being withdrawn or marked illegal, it will proceed to a vote at Tuesday's Minor Update.
