A resolution to express a position on international affairs and obligations.

The Security Council,
Still in shock at recent events which brought all diplomacy to a halt across the multiverse, leading to over four days of stagnation, shaking all nations and organizations to their very core,
Dismayed that this cataclysmic event initiated on the Twenty-Third day of December, occurring right as holiday festivities were reaching their peak for nearly all people in all nations,
Aghast at the sheer destruction wrought by this apocalypse, vastly outshadowing previous multiversal disasters, including the not-infrequent nuclear armageddons and zombie uprisings, and the disastrous reign of the Cosmic Moose and its fury, which dealt a significant blow to the stability of the fabric of reality,
Grateful that the World Assembly headquarters blipped back into reality shortly after the start of the event, being one of the few global hubs that came to existence, and continuing to serve as a marketplace of ideas, and for the return of all functionality with only mild delays upon the restoration of the rest of the multiverse,
Noting that, while there is a theory that purports the multiverse may have been created last Thursday, having it summarily obliterated instead was extremely problematic in regards to the holiday plans of the nations of this Council,
Acknowledging that many nations became lost in a terminal aether, with their futures uncertain, and many believing themselves to be “adrift”, “nonexistent”, or “erased”, and the lasting impact that this may have on the denizens of the universe,
Reflecting on the worry that, for a time, there was the possibility that the multiverse would be reset,
Deducing that, if this outcome had come to pass, untold chaos, lawlessness, and potentially deadly power struggles would have spread throughout the multiverse instead of the usual good tidings and assorted presents,
Lamenting the fact that, since the multiverse is a critical community for many nations, some were not able to celebrate the holidays due to the small inconvenience of the multiverse being in tatters,
Horrified at the massive damage done to the market of national artwork, wiping out tens of thousands of standing asks and bids,
Resolving that to forever commemorate and remember this time of hardship, henceforth, all nations are encouraged to take four days off of this mortal plane, abstain from all worldly activities, and engage in deep introspection, every Twenty-Third of December,
Hereby immortalized the “Holiday Apocalypse”, acknowledging it as a disaster of unparalleled scale and submitting this account of its events on the book of the Security Council for the rest of eternity, or until it is rightfully repealed.
