(Embassy) International Western Union

The International Western Union, via the Judiciary Commonwealth of Kialga, wishes to extend a hand of greetings to the World Alliance. We look forward to renewed niceties between our two regions for a time to come.

[big]The Regionalist Party [/big]

After the announcement that Political Parties would be allowed in the International Western Union, on party was formed. The Regionalist Party was formed and struck off initially. The Party was formally recognized in early January 201, reaching the required 4 nations to form a party. The party stands on the core platforms of “[The Regionalist Party] believes in a centrist regional government, with a right-centrist orientation and firm stances in today's issues in the regional world.” The Party was formed by Hyperion, being backed by Neo-Assyrian Empire. Currently, the party lays claim to several feats. The party boasts 5 members, holding 3 of the 9 IWU Regional Council seats, and lays claim to the authorship of the major bills passed in the IWU Regional Council.

[big]An Active Regional Council[/big]

The IWU Regional Council, a nine-seated legislature within the International Western Union, has seen leaps in bounds in the Regional Government in comparison to its predecessor. The Council has passed two laws that have been introduced into the regional community of the International Western Union.

The first, The Sealed Records and Documents Act, was passed in early January. The act calls for certain “court sealed” documents to not be viewable by the public, based on a 2/3 majority of IWURC members voting to seal the document. If a document is court sealed, it will only be viewable by IWU Regional Council members, the IWU President, the IWU Founder, and the Judges. This resolution was authored by IWU Regional Council member, Hyperion (Regionalist Party).

The second, the Article for Regional Defense, was passed on 09 February 2014. This act formed a commission in order to defend the region from coups and raids. The commission will be headed by a Security Commissioner and a Security Adviser, both of whom will work to retain knowledge on possible threats to regional safety. The resolution’s author was Hyperion (Regionalist Party).

All articles can be found in the Factbook of the Regional Identity nation of The IWU.

[big]Friendly Rivalry[/big]

Kialga, the IWU founder, issued a friendly competition to recently the recently separated region of the International Northern Union. On 14 January 2014, Kialga offered to host a friendly football (soccer for us Americans) competition between the two regions. Initially, Kialga had planned to host 32 nations, 16 from each region. However, interest levels were not as high as hoped, and the competition was down-sized to host 16 nations, 8 from each region.

The first day of matches took place on 28 January 2014, pitting each regions member against other members of the same region. The first seven days were this same situation, and on 12 February 2014, the regions entered each other fields to play across regional borders.

The end of the regular season is scheduled to be on 28 February 2014, with the final Championship series coming sometime in March.

[big][big]State of Decline (Personal Note from Kialga)[/big][/big]

The spark that once feed the IWU is dying. The region is entering a collapse as nations left and right continue to Cease-To-Exist and the lack of a recruiter ceases the flow of fresh nations into the region. Government leaders are being invited elsewhere by former IWU citizens so that they may build a new region to something that may compare to the IWU's legacy. I've already put how I feel into actual words, so it may be better to do that here as well.

With Happiness Comes Sadness...

03/27/2014

So, even with the region in a state of decline... like, almost a constant state of decline, activity seems to be looking up. A stock exchange is peeking, the RMB is lively (or more-so than it has been in awhile), and there seems to be a general good air around the region. Really, just a jolly time around the region.

However, the outside is far better than the inside... A lackluster government, a lackluster founder, and a lackluster amount of decent activity being boiled in the region. There is only so much I can do without being criticized. There is only so much I can do without being overbearing. To be frank, I've run out of lust to keep trying anything. Either it gets shot down, seen as a coup, or I run out of time to do anything decent with it.

Really, this is an apology to the region. I am lacking what I used to in order to be the founder that you all have either known prior or wanted. Some things, I am hoping, will change. There are things far out of my control that I can't change. Personally, I must face the music and accept the terrible job I am doing for the region. I don't want you all to see this as a sign of weakness, as it is far from it. I really just hate having so many ideas with no way to fulfill them.

Look for some updates within the month.

Stay great, region,

This is in no way a cry for help, it is the facts. The IWU is likely to fade from the world and I am just here to explain why. Not much of a Foreign Update, but it is all there is to say anymore.

Welcome!
