Congress of Nations

The Congress of Nations is an whose stated aims include promoting and facilitating cooperation in international law, international security, economic development, social progress, human rights, civil rights, civil liberties, political freedoms, democracy, and the achievement of lasting world peace. The CoN was founded in 1945 following the end of the Eulhae War to stop wars between countries, and to provide a platform for dialogue. The Congress of Nations headquarters resides in international territory in Minghoi, Meisaan.

The organization is financed from assessed and voluntary contributions from its member states. The CoN has five principal organs: the General Assembly (the main deliberative assembly); the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) (for promoting international economic and social co-operation and development); the Secretariat (for providing studies, information, and facilities needed by the CoN); the International Court of Justice (the primary judicial organ); and the Congress of Nations Trusteeship Council. CoN System agencies include the World Bank Group, the World Health Organization, the World Food Programme, CONESCO, and CONICEF. The CoN's most prominent officer is the Secretary-General, an office held by Gendo Ikari of Akitsukuni since 2007. Non-governmental organisations may be granted consultative status with ECOSOC and other agencies to participate in the CoN's work.

Some commentators believe the organisation to be an important force for peace and human development, while others have called the organisation ineffective, corrupt, or biased.

Background and Creation
The Congress of Nations was created following the end of the Eulhae War in order to stop wars between countries, and to provide a platform for dialogue.

Structure
The Congress of Nations' system is based on five principal organs: the General Assembly, the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), the Secretariat, the International Court of Justice (Tiandi), and the Trusteeship Council.

General Assembly
The General Assembly is the main deliberative assembly of the Congress of Nations. Composed of all Congress of Nations member states, the assembly meets in regular yearly sessions, but emergency sessions can also be called.

Membership
Membership to the Congress of Nations is automatically granted to any sovereign state with control over its own territory and a valid political statute. Cases which do not meet these requirements must have a 2/3 majority of members to be admitted, similarly states which do meet these requirements must have a 2/3 vote against their membership to be barred. New members can reapply every 5 years, and existing members cannot be removed from the Congress of Nations unless they withdraw or are replaced by a successor state.

Funding
The Congress of Nations receives most of its funding from large developed economies such as Jeongmi and Meisaan, addition to bringing in profits from CoN funding projects and various NGOs. Every 5 years the CoN has a full audit to determine the manner by which officials can improve and better allocate funding mechanisms within the framework of international cooperation.

Evaluation, awards, and criticism
The Nationalist Federation of Daeseong has condemned the Congress of Nations as a relic of a former imperialist order, and has withdrawn and reapplied numerous times in the Congress' history under different ruling parties. It is currently not a member of the Congress.
