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.

General Assembly Resolution # 321
Repeal: “International Expositions Act”
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.
General Assembly Resolution #172 “International Expositions Act” (Category: Education and Creativity; Area of Effect: Cultural Heritage) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
The World Assembly,
Acknowledging the effort of General Assembly Resolution #172 "International Expositions Act" to highlight the rich and diverse traditions of World Assembly members,
Concerned #172 mandates an "International Exposition of Culture" every year, whilst failing to account for the massive cost, and time needed to construct facilities for such an exposition to take place,
Confused by the fact the "International Exposition Authority" has the full authority to select a member nation city to host the "International Exposition of Culture", whilst failing to define the nomination criteria of such a selection,
Befuddled #172 states these expositions must be carried out in the manner of a worldwide fair, whilst failing to define what a world wide fair should entail,
Disappointed clause 7(a) states host nations have the right to deny entry to nations of which they are currently in conflict with, thus denying legitimate member states the right to showcase the heritage and culture of their nation to the rest of the international community,
Further confused that host members may not omit certain ideologies, cultures, or beliefs from these conventions, whilst simultaneously stating they may deny entry to nations of whom they are in conflict with, thus defeating the purpose of clause 7(a), by causing intentional conflict with said nation,
Hereby repeals "GENERAL ASSEMBLY RESOLUTION # 172 International Expositions Act".

Security Council Resolution # 172
Repeal: “Commend Tiago Silva”
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.
Security Council Resolution #43 “Commend Tiago Silva” shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
The Security Council,
RECOGNIZING the contribution of Tiago silva to the world by universally improving the quality of national flags in 2011,
NOTING that this contribution is the only undertaking celebrated by the commendation in question, which is composed of only three short statements,
REALIZING that although the efforts of Tiago silva are appreciated, under no circumstances can they be considered "brave" as described by SC#43,
UNDERWHELMED by the overall lack of additional substance beyond the flag improvement presented in the resolution,
OBSERVING that the same type of work done by Tiago silva has been popular amongst the artists of the world for many years, and flags of similar quality to those produced by the commended nation are routinely produced by others without the same recognition by the Security Council,
BELIEVING that the standards of the World Assembly are much higher than the quality of SC#43 and that a nation should have a history of honorable contributions to the world to be included in a commendation by this body,

General Assembly Resolution # 323
No Penalty Without Law
A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.
The General Assembly,
Reaffirming its stance that "one should not be penalised for doing something that is not prohibited by law,"
Regretting, however, the lack of internationally recognized legal safeguards protecting individuals from criminal penalties in circumstances where no relevant law exists,
Believing that the World Assembly must act to rectify this oversight,
1. Declares that neither member nations, political subdivisions thereof, nor any person or organisation acting on or purporting to be acting on the authority of the member nation or political subdivisions thereof, may arrest, detain, prosecute, or punish any individual unless such action is specifically permitted by international law or a relevant member nation's established statutory laws, judicial precedents, or guidelines with the force of law;
2. Mandates that such established international or statutory laws, judicial precedents, or guidelines with the force of law shall define any punishable action in good faith so as to reasonably minimize ambiguity in enforcement;
3. Requires member nations to ensure that all established international or statutory laws, judicial precedents, or guidelines with the force of law applicable under their jurisdiction are publicly promulgated when it is determined to be both practical and necessary in preventing their inhabitants from committing punishable actions;
4. Prohibits member nations, political subdivisions thereof, or any person or organisation acting on or purporting to be acting on the authority of the member nation or political subdivisions thereof, from arresting, detaining, prosecuting, incarcerating, fining, or otherwise placing under duress individuals for violating laws that are not publicly promulgated;
5. Demands that all individuals previously convicted or currently detained in violation of any of the aforementioned principles shall be immediately freed and have their sentences nullified, and;
6. Clarifies that nothing in this resolution shall provide protection for those that claim ignorance of the law if the relevant law is publicly promulgated in accordance with the provisions of clause three.

Security Council Resolution # 173
Commend Renegade Islands Alliance
A resolution to recognize outstanding contribution by a nation or region.
The Security Council,
Recognizing Renegade Islands Alliance (RIA) as a prominent and active military force dedicated to protecting regions who lack the ability to protect themselves from foreign aggression,
Further Recognizing Renegade Islands Alliance as promoters of Defender Unity, while showing respect towards allies and enemies alike,
Applauding the success of the Renegade Islands Alliance Special Forces (RIASF) in successfully launching or supporting allies in more than 30 liberations and several dozen missions to free more than 300 regions from Raider control since October 2013,
Acknowledging major achievements and contributions of the RIASF, including, but not limited to:
December 2013: Contributing to the liberation of Asia from The Black Riders, as one of the largest liberations in history,
February 2014: Assisting The Founderless Regions Alliance in securing New Sorvun Republic from foreign aggression, saving it from a hostile refound, and staying during the lengthy occupation that followed,
May 2014: The liberation of St Abbaddon, in which the RIASF was later awarded a pin from The United Defenders League to commend their efforts,
June 2014: Participation in The United Defenders League's "Spring Cleaning" operation, in which more than 100 regions were freed from Raider control. The RIASF later received a medal from The United Defenders League for their efforts and contribution in the operation,
December 2014: Participation in the liberation of Anne Frank from Fascist control, largely considered to be one of the largest joint-Imperialist, Anti-Fascist, and Defender liberations in history,
Admiring the resilience of Renegade Islands Alliance, withstanding direct attacks from Raider organizations, after DEN destroyed the RIASF forums in 2005 and Lone Wolves United attempted and failed to seize the executive delegacy in 2015, all while the RIA still showed respect towards Raiders and emerging stronger than before after each attempted attack,
Honoring the commitment of the Renegade Island Alliance's founder, Shizensky, in establishing the RIASF and the RIA's community, who has released several tools to help Defenders defend and liberate more efficiently,
Exalting the RIA as a free and directly democratic region, in which all nations with legal citizenship are free to vote and run for government positions, including the World Assembly Delegacy,
Viewing Renegade Islands Alliance as a region that leads by example, asking nothing in return for services and willingly working and cooperating with fellow Defender organizations to promote peace and liberty across the world, even if it means staying out of the spotlight,
Classifying Renegade Islands Alliance as a benevolent Defender organization,
Seeking to commend the efforts of the RIA and RIASF that have often gone unnoticed by the world and this esteemed council,
Hereby Commends Renegade Islands Alliance.
