Commend Electrum
A resolution to recognize outstanding contribution by a nation or region.
Category: Commendation
Nominee: Electrum
Proposed by: Hulldom
The Security Council,
Recognizing that many nations "kick butt" and that some such nations are worthy of our unalloyed praise, such as Electrum;
Praising the triumphs of collaboration of Electrum’s sporting administrators and historians over the years, something notable through their leadership of a variety of multiversal sporting federations including tennis, wherein they revived the series of tournaments known as the NationStates Tennis Tour, and ensured that international sporting history was collated and preserved for interested parties and for the sake of posterity;
Cheering the victories of Electrumite athletes in a variety of sports, most notably in:
World Cup 78, wherein the Electrumite national football team beat the team from Eura 3-1, an impressive historical feat for Electrumite football made possible through the hard work, sweat, and tears of Electrum’s captain Tyler Fernando and coach Jeffrey Clark,
The NationStates Tennis Tour, a series of tournaments whose doubles competitions were dominated by the pair of Sonya Gredello and Rosa Levinsky (known popularly by their nickname Ronya), Electrumite athletes who inspired the universe through their domination of Olympic tennis, the Grand Slams, and season-ending competition, and
The various sports that fall under the Olympics umbrella, as Electrumite athletes excelled in their disciplines and allowed their nation a point of pride in winning over six hundred medals over fifteen Games including the 10th Olympiad that Electrum co-hosted with Ceni and the 11th, 12th, and 13th Winter Olympiads that Electrum hosted by themself;
Acclaiming the impacts of Electrumite journalism, specifically in the fields of sports journalism -- where the Centralis Herald provides continuous coverage of all manner of activities on and off the pitch -- and news coverage, where the satirical newspaper The Turnip and their reporter Billiam Maskey keep audiences “informed” and bemused by their hatred of root vegetables not of the turnip variety;
Appreciating the contributions of Electrum's exceptionally talented programmers and graphic designers, collaborating with their colleagues in The Grearish Union to provide video games for the denizens of the multiverse to enjoy via the gaming company and storefront Dream Games;
Applauding the campy artistic talent of Electrumite recording artists, something evident through their top finishes in various WorldVision competitions including 1st place in the competition's 49th edition with an entry by Michael Street, 2nd place in the 50th edition, and 3rd place a further four times, including in their debut appearance in WorldVision’s 35th edition with an entry by Eliza Nord;
Complimenting the slightly mischievous antics of Electrumite singer and athlete Gertrude Pullman who, among other achievements, performed at 24 editions of the WorldVision competition representing the Diplomatic Offices of Electrum while also finding time to develop sharp table tennis skills, winning 3 Olympic medals in the discipline;
Appraising that another jewel in the crown of Electrum’s accomplishments is the variety of problems Electrum's leaders have demonstrated to leaders of the other nations who erred in their previous decisions, compiling these issues in carefully prepared dossiers such as:
Dossier #1352 “The Brains Behind Kuru”, a dossier which pointed out the problems inherent in allowing any species of the multiverse to eat their own, something that led to an outbreak of a rare disease in affected states, and
Dossier #1353 “The Birds and The Plan Bs”, which investigated the natalist policies of nations that restricted access to a form of reproductive health care;
Applauding the perhaps lesser known contributions of the Electrumite World Assembly Delegation to recognizing their fellow nations who excelled, and continue to excel, in the realm of international athletics such as:
SC #306: “Commend Audioslavia”, a missive that celebrated Audisolavia for their stunning dominance of international football and auto racing competitions and leadership of the same sporting communities, and
SC #321: “Commend Valanora”, co-authored with Francois isidore, a resolution that honored Valanora for their sporting achievements, primarily in football and hockey contests;
Prizing the glittering achievements of this grand nation and hoping that through this alchemy we too can "kick butt" and strike a vein of gold comparable to theirs;
