Reasons for leave, all in order:
Red green and black, lost WA Delegate status
Levroux, invisible reason
Aderondack, ceased AND removed
Naissaar soviet republic, removed as WA Delegate
Miekzhemy, invisible reason
Tolstoyan commune, removed as WA Delegate
Quartia and Karafuto, removed as WA Delegate
Anatum, lost WA Delegate status
Miekzhemy, invisible reason
Zoeyland, ceased to exist
Miekzhemy, invisible reason

Why would Zoeyland cease to exist, but not be removed also like Aderondack, who was both ceased and removed? Would there had been a change in NationStates for how this is displayed?

So there's four possible reasons:
lost WA Delegate status
removed as WA Delegate
ceased to exist
invisible reason (system states no reason)

As far as I can tell, there's four ways for how to lose WA Delegate status:
left region
withdrawed from World Assembly participation
other nation had more endorsements
nation was inactive until sent to Boneyard

Ok, I'll help with this. Lost means just they resigned, and someone else took delegate. Removed means that they just didn't have enough endorsements to be a delegate or someone passed them, and ceased to exist is really obvious, they just ceased to exist. And no, removed is NOT manually removed.
Oh yeah, but for transitions, all it takes is a WA update, and then it changes.

Thank you for explaining and I understand now about the WA update needing to process before a new Delegate is appointed after being removed. Am I correct that you think:
lost = withdrawed from World Assembly participation
removed = other nation had more endorsements
ceased = nation was inactive until sent to Boneyard

Would you believe that the invisible reason (Miekzhemy three times, Aderondack once) is for they left the region?

Also do any of you who were previous World Delegates remember what happened when you left?
