Understanding the importance of the humanities in the study of societies and therefore believes such utility to aid in the proliferation of cultural preservation,

1. Defines:

   1. Humanities as the study of composition of which, for the the categorical purposes of this Resolution, shall consist of the “social humanities”, describing contextualization within society, and the “natural humanities” representing physical phenomenon including but not limited to the arts;

   2. Art as the study of external composition through a designated medium with the “visual arts” to be categorized as sensory and “performance arts” as bodily;

   3. Language as the mode of communication allowing for the transferral of information between individuals, with “home language” to be seen as local dialects within a Member State and “foreign language” as dialects in the opposite of this respect being representative of external polities;

   4. Secondary or primary education as the elementary attainment of knowledge qualification across varying academic disciplines and tertiary education achieving subsequent advanced qualification including research catering from universities, think tanks and other relevant institutions.

2. Establishes the World Assembly Council for the Humanities (WACH) of which shall encompass a praesidium of researchers with the body to be formed in preserving academic standards within the humanities among all Member States and shall be given the authority to:

   1. Categorize emerging, new empirical disciplines within both the social and natural humanities of which shall be recognized among all Member States;

   2. Encourage cross-research between Member States and facilitate for global research guidelines and etiquette;

   3. Send international observers to Member States and assess metrics within the humanities subjects including institutional rankings, formal counsel and any subsequent recommendations with any necessary screening to be conducted by request of Member States;

      1. The relevancy of metrics and statistical methods utilized shall be formulated by the WACH and moderated by any relevant external committees or bodies within the World Assembly;

   4. Facilitate and administrate global academic journals;

   5. Provide research funding with encouraged subsequent cooperation from Member States;

   6. Create scholarship and bursary opportunities for tertiary degrees among Member States;

   7. Host annual academic conferences and conventions on new frontiers of emerging research.

3. Mandates the WACH to establish the Humanities Accords of which shall serve as long-term aims among Member States and shall encompass the following:

   1. Encourages the promotion of bilingual attitudes within schooling and tertiary institutions and the motivation of foreign language perspectives and learning;

   2. Encourages Member States to promote the arts within education through national curricula and tertiary programs spanning both visual and performance disciplines;

      1. Deems the above provisions to be relevant only where funding for such activities are feasible with any subsequent funding necessary to be delegated on the discretion of Member States to the WACH.

   3. Motivates for the preservation of national culture through museum incentivization, government-sponsored programs, tourist attractions and locales and other provisions necessary in depicting historical and present attitudes deemed important at the discretion of Member States;

   4. Advocates for the inclusion of history within generic tertiary humanities courses with relevancy to be attributed to Member States’ respective cultures and customs.

Recognizing the need for international cooperation in outer space, as the shared fabric of the universe that binds all known life, a medium which is becoming increasingly reachable for developing life,

Motivated by a desire to cooperate on preserving access to, and promoting research of, this medium, through international partnership,

Pursuing collaboration on space research and exploration under the framework of national sovereignty, respecting the internal affairs of member nations while promoting cooperation that will prove beneficial to the World Assembly at large,

Hereby defines as follows:

1. Outer Space: The all-encompassing expanse of vacuum in between celestial objects, including but not limited to stars, planetary bodies, and nebulae.

2. Spacecraft: A flight-capable vehicle operated within outer space by a civilization.

3. Civilian Spacecraft: A spacecraft that is owned or operated for non-military use.

Hereby enacts as follows:

1. The Space Transport and Astronomical Research (STAR) Administration is hereby established with the following directives:

   1. Promoting international research and understanding of outer space, in the interest of uninvasive international cooperation and for the benefit of member nations.

   2. Publishing credible research findings regarding aeronautical travel and outer space phenomena, in cases where such research benefits the international community.

   3. Promoting technology sharing, with consent of any involved parties, to expedite safe, sustainable space travel in developing member nations.

   4. Collaborating with member nations and any further programs established by the General Assembly as needed to minimize internationally relevant risks deriving from spacefaring operations.

2. Member nations are encouraged to follow any applicable guidelines established by the STAR Administration on the topic of inspecting civilian spacecraft, for the purposes of verifying operational, mechanical, and structural soundness, for the purposes of reducing casualties.

   1. Member nations are encouraged to ensure that their spacecraft can last for the whole mission that they will be used for.

   2. Member nations are encouraged to ensure that their spacecraft undergo extensive structural tests and extensive mechanical tests for the purposes of preventing fuel and chemical leakages, as well as averting other dangerous issues that may arise.

3. Member nations, when operating in shared terrestrial orbits, are highly encouraged to coordinate with the STAR Administration to the extent needed to avoid, or reduce to the fullest, the risk of unintended collision between spacecraft, satellites, and other structures.

   1. For the purpose of resolving emergency situations, member nations are encouraged to share communication channels and contact procedures for civilian spacecraft operating in the same terrestrial orbits.

4. The STAR Administration shall respect the sovereignty of all member states regarding exploration, studying, and missions into outer space.

   1. The STAR Administration shall have zero authority to pass discipline onto nations.

The Security Council,

Acknowledging that “Liberate Utopia” served an essential purpose in helping Utopia’s residents reclaim their region from rogues, at a time when the region lacked the means to do so itself, restoring Utopia’s idyllic and positive environment,

Noting that the specific security concerns and administrative disruptions that prompted SC#13 to be written have been fully resolved by the region’s current residents and global circumstances,

Observing that no native population of Utopia remains, its founding nations and long-standing residents before its refounding having long since ceased to exist, leaving only recently arrived nations with no historical claim to the region predating this Council’s original intervention,

Recognizing that the Security Council’s resolutions are meant to uphold durable principles rather than preserve dated concerns and grievances,

Reflecting that the vulnerability following the loss of Utopia’s founder, Utopian thoughts, left the region genuinely exposed, and SC#13’s intervention played a real part in seeing it through that period,

Further reflecting that the circumstances behind the one-time occurrence belong to a specific chapter in Utopia’s history that has since closed,

Noting further that the residents of Utopia took matters into their own hands, refounding the region and entrusting it in their own community,

Aware that Utopia, like any other founderless region, can rely on established defender coalitions to defend itself, coordinated through networks such as Libcord, which monitor and respond to raids regardless of formal treaty ties or Security Council resolutions,

Understanding that this Council repeals liberation resolutions once a region has shown long-term stability and no longer requires active World Assembly intervention, as with the recent repeal of “Liberate Portugal de Esquerda,” where the resolution was recognized as unable to serve its intended function without a governor to enforce it, leaving the text ineffective without any active protective effort, and as with the repeal of “Liberate Syria,” where invading forces were found to no longer pose a threat to the region, as they were long gone,

Exhausted that “Liberate Utopia” has stood 17 years past the events that needed it, far longer than its original purpose,

Hereby repeals “Liberate Utopia”.

Understanding the certain risks and dangers relating to nuclear energy generation,

Recognizing the effort and expertise required to maintain nuclear energy infrastructure, and the investments required to fuse and split the atom,

Concerned about the potential mismanagement, misunderstanding, and misuse of nuclear power,

Aiming to establish a concrete, just, and fair governing body to oversee and regulate safe nuclear generation efforts in member nations, establishes the following:

1. For clarity, defines:

   1. “Nuclear Energy”, for this resolution only, as any type of commercial or national power infrastructure, consisting of more than one structure, which uses energy from the interactions of an atomic nucleus with another subatomic particle or nuclei, and propagating any form of radiation or danger of nuclear contamination;

   2. “Criticality”, as any nuclear chain reaction that is self-sustaining, where each splitting atom releases enough neutrons to maintain a chain reaction under the control of Reactor Operators, in terms of Nuclear Fission;

   3. “SCRAM”, as any emergency shutdown or automatic safety system in any nuclear energy, that forces the nuclear reaction to slow to a significant degree, or stop;

2. The International Nuclear Compliance Commission (INCC) is established and funded as the World Assembly organization with the chief end of regulating and ensuring the safe use of Nuclear Energy. INCC shall then be responsible for the following duties:

   1. INCC shall publish and maintain an extensive list of safeguards, rules, regulations, and precautions that World Assembly members will subscribe to, defining the safe use and operations of Nuclear Energy, with revisions as needed;

   2. For member nations with no Nuclear infrastructure, the INCC will oversee any attempts to achieve criticality, and provide reasonable assistance when needed or requested by any member;

   3. Audit and ensure the compliance of member nations’ nuclear energy infrastructure, verifying that all operations are up to INCC standards; however, any facility inspections shall require the full voluntary consent of host nations;

   4. Maintain a safe clause of security around nuclear power, and educate and inform those nations wanting to learn more about the atom, its uses, and the boons of nuclear energy;

3. INCC shall, under good rapport and audit, establish, affirm, and administer the following non-autonomous organizations:

   1. The Advisory Committee on Reactor Safety (ACRS), to advise the Commission, concerning national law, the hazards of proposed or existing reactor facilities in member nations, and to establish a safe working environment and sound SCRAM systems;

   2. The Emergency Nuclear Response Organization (ENRO), to coordinate response time, emergency efforts, and flow of information in the time of a nuclear disaster, with report to the INCC, and to assist with humanitarian organizations and national emergency response to convey prudent information on the disaster;

Declares the atom a safe, now regulated, source of energy.

The Security Council,

Recalling the passage of Commend Vilita and turori in May 2020, which sought to commend the nation for its awe-inspiring successes and extraordinary contributions to the international sports community,

Questioning the merits of that resolution in light of an investigation conducted three years thereafter that exposed Vilita for a litany of grave and reprehensible transgressions committed against that community,

Observing that Vilita’s efforts to foster “a welcoming environment” are enervated by the revelation that they themselves engaged in a behaviour that was both unbecoming of a nation considered a pillar of the international sports community and one commended by this august body:

• Vilita sent the puppet nations of United, Racing, and Esportiva to terrorize Esportiva's regional message board. Vilita and any other nations under its control would wind up being proscribed from ever setting foot on Esportiva.

• Esportiva’s plight was not an isolated incident, as Vilita employed the same tactics under the nation of Pirahna to target The Western Isles.

Repulsed by how Vilita founded two nations which misled the community into believing other prolific nations were engaged in illegal puppetry, causing lasting damage to these nations’ credibility until evidence of their innocence came to light after the investigations:

• East neutralia, signed up for two editions of the Copa Rushmori (Editions XXX and XXXVIII), had a flag bearing resemblance to that of Rushmore resident Oberour Ar Moro.

• New old forest, who had signed up for the Di Bradini Cup 50 immediately after its founding, was widely assumed to be an undeclared puppet of TJUN-ia.

Appalled that Vilita’s criminality does not end there, as Vilita’s worst offenses came in the form of trying to circumvent community regulations by surreptitiously sneaking puppets into multiple competitions undeclared, most notably:

• In World Cup 19 (WC19), Vilita entered 11 undeclared puppets, including Crystilakere, which would go on to win WC19. Throughout the entire tournament, Vilitan sporting officials refereed each of the would-be victor’s matches.

• In World Cup 22 (WC22), Vilita entered 9 undeclared puppets, including Oaker, which finished second. Vilitan sporting officials refereed every one of Oaker’s matches except the final.

• In World Cup 95 (WC95), both of the aforementioned puppets’ appearances were declared null and void: Crystilakere’s title was declared vacated; Oaker’s final appearance met the same fate.

• In World Cups 13 through 27, Vilita would enter 16 other undeclared nations into the competition.

Acknowledging that being granted assent to host a sporting competition anywhere across the multiverse is an honour conferred to those who have earned the trust of the wider sports community,

Saddened that Vilita had, prior to being exposed, been considered a role model to many up-and-coming nations seeking to summit the mountaintop of sporting glory, and that said aspirants sought to model themselves after Vilita,

Noting the subsequent outcry in reaction to Vilita’s shocking misdeeds, culminating in not only its shunning but its expulsion from the Executive World Cup Committee (EWCC) and World Cup Committee (WCC),

Therefore lamenting Vilita’s fall from grace, as the revelations of their duplicity and misconduct were not only antithetical to what was expected of such an applauded and revered nation, but also broke the hearts of an overwrought international sports community awash in a flood of unthinkable grief, incredulity, and indignation,

Laying bare the many repugnant and shameful actions committed by Vilita that are utterly antipodean to the noble virtues embodied by other nations enshrined in the pantheon of those commended by the Security Council,

HEREBY repeals “Commend Vilita and Turori.”
