World Assembly

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 # 71 Repeal "Protection of monuments"A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation. | ||
Category: Repeal |
Resolution: GA#69 |
Proposed by: |
Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #69: Protection of monuments (Category: Education and Creativity; Area of Effect: Cultural Heritage) shall be struck out and rendered null and void. Argument: APPLAUDING the ideals expressed in Protection of monuments. UNDERSTANDING that not all nations treat historical sites with the respect they deserve. NOTING the spelling errors, which may cause unintended confusion with implementation. NOTING also, the numerous loopholes which allow for a nation to essentially ignore whole sections of the statue, or to abuse the protections provided by it. FURTHER REGRETTING that only a single solution is offered, that being nationalization of historical sites, museums and monuments. APPALLED that one such consequence would be to deprive people of their homes if they fall under the historical site category. BELIEVING that the monuments in the world deserve better protection that those afforded by this act. DISAPPOINTED that while this resoution stands more specific and better thought out resolutions protecting a member nations monuments can not be passed. The Protection of Monuments is hereby repealed Votes For: 3,902 (63%) Implemented: Wed Nov 11 2009

SECURITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION # 9 * REPEALED *
| ||
Category: Liberation |
Nominee (region): The Security Council |
Proposed by: Unibotian wasc mission |
Description: We the Peoples of the Security Council, Perceiving the short history of the Security Council so far, as an unsteady beginning -- one full of uncertainty and hesitancy; Recalling the World Assembly, and at least one historical institution before that, whose beginnings were equally as unsteady; Aware of the difference between the Security Council and these successful establishments lies not in their ideals, but their organization; Determining that a higher degree of self-determination, and freedom is thus necessary for a successful establishment; Whereas the World Assembly Security Council is disregarded as an international malingerer, a distraction from the imperative directives of the General Assembly; Distressed to hear of potential authors of Security Council Resolutions who have decided not to pursue issues of international security out of fear, and intimidation from naysayers who have been attached to the Security Council not out of preference, but because of its association with the General Assembly -- which is not unlike the relationship of a child to its older brother; Concerned that such a fraternal shadow may cast darkness over some pressing issues in our world; Hereby, in the name of dedication to the dissemination of inter-regional peace and goodwill, liberates the Security Council. Votes For: 3,465 (74%) Implemented: Sun Nov 15 2009
