How Does World Assembly

---

The World Assembly (or WA) is the international political centre of NationStates. Membership in the World Assembly allows a nation to participate in areas of NationStates they wouldn’t otherwise have access to, such as r/d gameplay and voting on General Assembly and Security Council resolutions. Multiple regions in the game also give special benefits to WA-enrolled nations that remain in their region and/or endorse their delegate. As each player is only allowed to keep one nation enrolled in the World Assembly at a time, it is generally considered to most accurately reflect the number of people playing NationStates, and to designate a specific nation as your "main".

Description

The World Assembly as an organisation is broken into two distinct branches, the General Assembly and the Security Council.

The General Assembly is the equivalent of the real life United Nations General Assembly, and oversees proposals that will affect international relations and overall regulations for member nations. The Security Council is the equivalent of the real life United Nations Security Council, and votes mostly on gameplay matters including commending or condemning nations or regions and liberating regions.

Any member nation with two endorsements or more can submit proposals to either branch, and World Assembly delegates from each region can vote to approve those proposals. If 6% of delegates approve of a proposal, it will achieve quorum and be presented for a vote. Any nation enrolled in the World Assembly can vote on proposals. If the proposal passes, it is enacted immediately; any necessary stat adjustments or badges will be applied to the nations or regions in question.

Signing up for the World Assembly is a simple process. Go to the World Assembly page on NationStates and click the "Apply to Join" button featured in the screenshot to the right. A confirmation email will be sent to the email you registered with the account. Once you've confirmed it, you're in!
