The World Assembly (WA), is the governing body of the NationStates world. Membership in the World Assembly is voluntary and decisions passed by a majority of the body must be adhered to by all members. Players may only have one nation in the World Assembly at any given time and WA members can endorse the fellow WA members of their region. The WA member with the most endorsements from their fellow region-mates assumes the role of Delegate for that region and the weight of their vote on proposals counts for one plus all of their endorsements.
The Union of Democratic States World Assembly Program ( UDSWAP) is administered by the WA Delegate and World Assembly Advisory Board. The mission of the UDSWAP is to promote and reward World Assembly membership, endorsement of the Delegate, and endotarting (also known as cross-endorsing) among the WA members of the Union.
In the Union, the lawful WA Delegate is appointed by the President of the Union and confirmed by the Council of State. The WA Delegate votes on proposals according to the directive of the President who is responsible for setting and executing foreign affairs policy. Increasing endorsements on the delegate serves to safeguard the region, increase native influence, and advance the Union’s foreign affairs interests.
Participating in the UDSWAP is a selfless exciting act of public service that each citizen is called to complete. Engagement with the UDSWAP can additionally serve as a gateway to participation in the great halls of the World Assembly through discussion of proposals. You can participate in the UDSWAP in the following ways:
