Free World Alliance Recruiment

This is the official recruitment thread for the Free World Alliance. In the following posts you will find the treaties, conventions and accords that describe the purpose and guiding priciples that bind the nations of this alliance together.

If you share those ideals and are interested in joining the Free World Alliance, then your first port of call should be our off-site forum (http://z11.invisionfree.com/Free_World_Alliance/index.php?act=idx), where the Alliance processes all applications as well as conduct its business. For member and non-member nations alike, we ask that this thread not be used for Alliance business and OOC chatter kept to the minimum, so it can focus purely on recruitment and for answering queries from interested parties.

This thread supercedes the earlier Free World Alliance recruiment thread.

The Charter of the Free World Alliance

Preamble
Fundamental Freedoms are essential for the social, political, and economic development of all nations and the well being of its peoples. At this time of heightened international tensions and worldwide conflict, the principles set forth within the Charter of the United Nations seem increasingly at risk from those who would seek to destroy the very way of life enjoyed by free and democratic people. The Unitary Technocracy of Etoile Arcture and the Great Protectorate of FreeDemGov can no longer sit idly by as such abuses occur unchallenged, and asks the support and assistance of the international community towards the creation of a Free World Alliance among the freedom-loving nations, so that it may become a bulwark against the forces of tyranny and oppression.

Official Free Dominion of Vetaka Diplomatic Message:

To: Council of the Free World Alliance
From: Office of the President, Foreign Affairs Department

Subject: The Free World Alliance Position upon Subjects

Greetings,

The Vetakan Office of Foreign Affairs Department has been observing the Free World Alliance for a considerable amount of time now. The Vetakan Governments Foreign Policy has always been to encourage Freedom, Democracy and Human Rights around the world. The Vetakan Government fought slavery and was instrumental within the foundation of the Theeb Accords and Strando Protocal.

The Vetakan Dominion is interested in joining the Free World Alliance however we wish to enquire the Alliances position on a number of different subjects as detailed below:

1) The United Federation of Allied Nations
2) The EVIL Alliance Bloc
3) The Enviroment
4) The Theeb Accords & The Strando Protocal
5) The United Socialist States of Wagdog
6) Haven

Pending the answers to these questions will influence the Vetakan decsion to join this Alliance.

Yours with the greatest respects

Perry Cox

Acting Vice President of the Free Dominion of Vetaka

Official Diplomatic Communiqué

From: Governing Council of the Free World Alliance
To: Office of the President, Foreign Affairs Department

The Technocracy, in its capacity as co-founder of the FWA, welcomes the delegate for the Free Dominion of Vetaka to this meeting place.

We hope the answers to the following questions you have posed will prove satisfactory and will expedite the decision by your government to join the FWA.

Positions on the following, our answers:

1) The United Federation of Allied Nations

The FWA recognises and shares with the UFAN the same aims of promoting and defending human rights, and can easily forsee areas of overlap and finding common interest where both alliance's may work together on and create further ties.

2) The EVIL Alliance Bloc

While the matter of EVIL has not yet to be raised within the Governing Council, the aims of EVIL are clearly incompatible with those of the FWA. EVIL, in the view of the Technocracy, constitutes the most vile and provocative incitement to commit aggression and human rights violations against other nation, and therefore constitute a grave and present danger to international peace and security. As such we condemn the aims of EVIL in the strongest of terms.

3) The Environment

The FWA as a young organisation is yet to formalise its own environmental accords, but the Technocracy as a founding member believes strongly in sustainable development and environmental protection and will seek to advance this agenda within the FWA.

4) The Theeb Accords & The Strando Protocal

The FWA respects all instruments of international humanitarian law, and pending discussion by the Governing Council, will likely at some point become a signatory party to the Theeb Accords and The Strando Protocal.

5) The United Socialist States of Wagdog

The FWA has no official position on the United Socialist States of Wagdog and would welcome an application into this alliance as it would any other nation.

6) Haven

The FWA takes a nuetral position in matters concerning Haven.

We commend these answers for your consideration and look forward to a positive outcome for these negotiations.

From: Emilian Davout, Foreign Minister & Free World Alliance Representative
To: Office of the President, Foreign Affairs Department
Subject: Inquiry list

Greetings to the Free Dominion of Vetaka. Although my fellow representative in the Governing Council has already forwarded a reply, we would like to add some specific information about two of the subjects present in your list.

First of all in regards to the The Theeb Accords our nation has already ratified the treaty and fully encourages other nations to do the same. Our diplomats are currently reviewing the content of the The Strando Protocal, but we feel confident about signing it.

Second and perhaps more important, we have been keeping a close eye on the EVIL alliance, given the fact that we were involved in the crisis that lead to its formation.

Best regards,
Prince Emilian Davout

The Principality of Mephras, in its first steps into the international scene, would like to establish relations with your alliance. While Mephras is currently working on democratic reforms, it has yet to achieve a suitably democratic system for membership in your alliance. However, our nation has a good civil rights record, and hopes to expand political rights soon. Also As a new member of UCRA, I hope to find common ground between both groups.

From: Governing Council of the Free World Alliance
To: The Principality of Mephras

Re: Request to join the Free World Alliance

The Alliance wishes to greet your nation on the international scene and hopes for a fruitful cooperation with your nation.

After careful deliberations your nation has been accepted in the Free World Alliance on a temporary basis, though seeing your willingness to improve political rights we feel that the transition to full membership will be one easy to make for your nation.

As such, we believe that congratulations are in order following your acceptance. Your representative is expected at the Free World Alliance Headquarters to voice the opinion of your nation in the matters of the alliance.

Pinguinum is a proud nation and the vast majority are cooperative and have the utmost faith in His Majesty's government.

Urgent!

While we are aware of the increasing awareness in our forces regarding the Trojan Empire crisis, we must not lose out of sight other issues around the world.

At the moment, The Principality considers taking action against terrorists in the state of Kansiov as a result of their reckless actions. Murder of a Principality citizen, husband and father of two. (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=538511). We ask for the FWA to support the Kansiov government against these murderers.

The United States of Allanea wishes to join.

OOC: Would you guys be willing to Co-ordinate War Efforts against Trojan with UFAN?

OOC: Yes, I believe EA mentioned our willingness to cooperate with like minded groups in our official response, if not, then this counts as the affirmative answer.

Encrypted diplomatic Communiqué

To: The Free Dominion of Vetaka

As expressed by ourselves and the delegate for Damirez, the FWA views a coalition of the FWA and UFAN as beneficial to a speedy resolution of the Trojan Empire crisis. Please expect a communication shortly via more secure channels on this matter.

To: The Governing Council of the FWA
From: Grand Count Gutta, Turinas
Subject: Application

The Free County of Turinas has been interested in joining an alliance devoted to promoting freedom and equality, and the involvement of the FWA in several recent issues, as well as Turinian feelings of good will to Alfegos, has prompted me to send this message requesting entrance to the FWA.

It is a rare and infrequent occurence for my Political Freedoms or Civil Rights to drop below Excellent (Civil rights dropped to Very Good today unfortunately, but this will be rectified), and I have taken a keen interest in peacefully solving wars, as can be seen in the end of the Bjorn-Hurzi Civil War which recently ended, after I brought forth a proposal.

From: Governing Council of the Free World Alliance
To: Grand Count Gutta, Turinas

Re: Application to join the Free World Alliance

Upon careful deliberations made by the Governing Council of the Free World Alliance, we have decided to accept your nation in our ranks.

As of now you are a member of the Free World Alliance. We hope for a long and fruitful cooperation.

With that being said, we believe congratulations are in order.

Best Regards,
Prince Emilian Davout.

Urgent diplomatic Communiqué

The Technocracy takes this opportunity to congratulate the Free Land of Turinas on the occassion of their acceptance into the Free World Alliance and echo the words of the delegate for Alfegos in welcoming your nation and wishing it a long fruitful relationship with the Alliance.

In more grave news, we ask all member nations to attend urgent meetings at the Alliance headquarters (found here: http://z11.invisionfree.com/Free_World_Alliance/index.php? ) to discuss the growing crisis with the Trojan Empire.

Urgent.

As our preparations regarding the Trojan crisis are continuing, sources in our intelligence agencies have reported a worrying situation.

It seems my friends that there is a drug (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=538549) problem in the Nova region, home of many FWA nations.

OOC: Whilst I drew attention on that, ask Alf or Wecca before getting involved.

Official Hegemonic Statement:

The Hegemon Lord Sumguy wishes to extend his praise to the Free World Alliance for it's noble goals, and wishes to know if perhaps a partnership between the FWA and Hegemony would be possible, as the goals and ideals of the two alliances are similar in nature.

Official diplomatic Communiqué

The Governing council of the Free World Alliance wishes to thank the Hegemon Lord Sumguy for his praises and wishes to express interest in possible negotiations between our alliances.

We recommend however the use of better channels for this type of conversations.

Official Diplomatic Communiqué

The Free World Alliance is open to negotiations with the nation of Grael, both individually or as a representative of the Hegemony as a whole, and would propose doing so through the good offices of Etoile Arcture or Damirez.

While the political and civil rights of Greal preclude us from offering your nation membership in our alliance, it is our hope and wish that through discussions and negotiations, we may achieve a greater understanding between our nations and alliances leading to cooperation, collaboration and the betterment of all nations.
