What is the United Nations World Assembly?The
United Nations? World Assembly is the main in-game way of influencing the rest of NationStates. Every five days, the
United Nations? World Assembly has a resolution that is voted on. Each member may vote-- each vote by a
UN WA Member counts once but the vote of a
UN WA Delegate counts with a weight equal to 1 + the number of endorsements they hold. A
UN WA Delegate is considered to be the regional representative to the
United Nations? World Assembly , and is given power as such.
The first power of the
UN WA Delegate as I mentioned is to hold a vote in the
UN WA that is weighted by their endorsements. Because of the size of this vote, many regions, including, Taijitu require the Delegate vote the way the majority in the region wants them to.
The second power is the ability to nominate proposals: In order for a
UN WA proposal to reach the voting floor, at least 6% of all delegates must nominate it over the course of five days.
The third and perhaps most important power is that Delegates often have access to a region's Regional Controls allowing them to change the
WFE, to set a regional password, and to eject and ban nations from the region. This power can be turned off by a regional Founder, and it costs the Delegate
Regional Influence to use it.
How do you join the United Nations?There are a few things one must do to join the United Nations:
- Make sure your nation that you want to join the
UN WA has a unique email address. - Go to the
UN WA page and click on the "Apply to Join" button. - Within 24 hours your nation will get an acceptance TG and you will get an acceptance email. Unless of course you're rejected (if you followed step 1 that's pretty much impossible) or your email provider thinks the NS
UN WA is a spammer. - In the acceptance email you should click on the link helpfully provided to immediately activate your
UN WA membership!
Remember, you can only have one
UN WA nation at any given time.
