Introduction

In the first few years of the twentieth century the body known as the Council of Nations kept stability and order throughout the planet. Brazil hosts this new organization in the city of Recife in the hopes of securing peace and stability throughout the world. We have called these august powers to help achieve this. The belief of this nation is that the rogue nations of the world must be contained in where they rest, and if possible, rolled back. For the moment, until the first elections, Brazil will act as the chairing nation. The First elections will be held in 1984 and every six years after.

From the original thread:

“Founded in 1907, following the conclusion of the Great War, and based out of Geneva in Switzerland, the Council of Nations was formed to help the remaining Great Powers mediate disputes and conflicts across the world. Like the real life United Nations or League of Nations, the Council only has power if the nations in it let it have power. The Council of Nations can pass resolutions and ordinances which govern world trade and politics. The Council has a Chairman who can determine whether or not a proposed resolution can go to a vote.”

Brazil bids all welcome and proposes the following resolution:

001-1983: Resolution on the Formation of the Council of Nations
Description: The Council of Nations is hereby reinstated under similar guidance and control.

Turan Ummah votes Aye on Resolution 001 by the Late UN.

Nippon says Yes on Resolution 001.

Germania will join this new council with the understanding that only those already invited will have membership. We will vote aye on the Resolution 001 too.

Korea says Aye.

We also have our first other resolution proposed by Dar-al-Islam and posted by me due to his forum status.

Description: Limited military force, a combination of army, air force, and navy, in order to provide the Council of Nation a speedy military action for maintenance of peace purchased and kept by the Council of Nations independently under the command of the Council.

CLS votes yes on all three resolutions.

Dar-Al-Islam Votes AYE on 003-1983

Nippon votes Neigh on 003

Brazil votes yes with both new resolutions and will offer an argument in favor of Korea's proposition. We'd like to point out the near disasters of the former United Nations attempt to intervene in both the Mexican invasion of New Zion as well as the crisis in Somalia. Had a standing body of UN soldiers existed then, the issues may have been resolved sooner.

Nays: 0

003-1983
Ayes: 21
Nays: 0

With the votes by the said nations, all three standing resolutions would pass, even if all the nations on the invitation list were present. Those resolutions are now going into effect.

Brazil would like to remind the attending nations that in order to fufill 003-1983, money must be donated to the cause. Brazil herself plans on donating $10B and hopes that others can match or outmatch this contribution.

When the membership solidifies, Brazil would also like to bring up for discussion the uneasy matters of South Africa and Liberia. Brazil believes that immediate deployment of forces to both of these nations is needed.

Vietnam signing in. However, we would like to point out the inequity of power if the veto power is locked up with a sole country.

Also, we note the exclusion of the Communists from the Council. Though we are ideologically from separate worlds, we cannot shut these nations out and expect peace in the long-term.

Andalusia votes AYE on the three resolutions so far suggested.

As for the Liberia/South Africa situation, we suggest the next resolution:

004-1983 On the Uses of the Council of Nations' Peacekeeping Force
In the event that the sending of a Peacekeeping Force to any country is needed, the General Secretary will call over all Council members to meet and vote IMMEDIATELY (OOC: meaning before the turn is over) on the matter of sending the Force.

OOC: This isn't going to pass through, I know it... Next time, I'll try to make a better resolution. Also, how is the CoN Bank Account going to work? Like the Pope's?

@ Milarqui: Yes just like the Pope's when I update the stats the CoN will have their own Stat like the Catholic church with treasury and military forces.

The Union of Scandina via renegs it's statement of prior release, regarding the joining of that nation joining the Council of Nations, and hereby agrees to join and fully participate in voting and resolving international crisis.

We also vote Yay on the three current Resolutions.
