This amendment removes the civil rights/political freedoms requirements and it also removes that massive text-wall of random policies, most which are impossible to verify. I understand that this requirement has some RP stuff inside of it, as well as some gatekeeping things. But, if we're trying to keep fascist trolls out of the region, why do it with NS stats? If they really wanted to get in, they could just make some communist nation and start trolling anyways. It's easy to circumvent. If someone comes in who just wants to troll, we can just ban them and be done with it.
In regards to the numbering:
I used Amendment 9 because Anaaxes has already posted a pending Amendment 8 to the library.
tl;dr NS stats are stupid and we can effectively moderate without them

I'm running for Minister of Domestic Affairs, so what qualifies me to run for this term?
My membership in the SLU started in July 2020, and I've been an active role-player in the regional community since.
However, My run in SLU politics started in Feb 2021, which has included positions such as: -(June 2021 - Sept. 2021) Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs under Goncar,MoFA
-(March 2021 - June 2021) 2nd Secretary of World Assembly Affairs under Brys Questions,Delegate
-(March 2021 - Present) Ambassador [Europeia, Wintercrest, TCB, and TLA] under Goncar,MoFA
-(June 2021 - July 2021, Sept. 2022- Present) Writer for the Union Tribune under NAR(Masdobo),MoDA
The DA department's activity has been fantastic for a few months, and it would be my absolute pleasure to continue this era by adding new developments and advancing the programs that are currently running. This would include,
-Listening to the community. Clarity between the ministry and member-states comes before anything else, especially when it comes to Domestic Affairs.
-Continuing the Union Tribune's progress by opening positions for new writers, gameside, and on the regional discord.
-Putting together some more new community games (i.e., much like the ongoing flag design competition).
-Resuming Erynia's notion to keep gameside players in on announcements while encouraging new residents to join the community discord.
That being said, thank you for your time and continued support!

Hello, SLU Member Nations! I am Erynia and Draconia and I'm running for the office of World Assembly Delegate. Here's an overview of why I am running, and what I hope to achieve if I am elected.
My platform Democracy and transparency - We are a region of strong democratic traditions, and that is why I want to be a Delegate of the people— an elected official who is completely accountable to their regionmates and takes into account their concerns. Transparency is very important to me, therefore I will post regular updates on the RMB on the ongoings of the government.
Foreign affairs - Working with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I want to build stronger bonds with our allied regions and build new connections. I also will do what I can to help NSLeft become more of a hub of diplomacy, culture, discussion, and community for its members. Through events such as joint game nights with embassy regions, I believe we can strengthen our existing relations and forge new ones.
World Assembly - I'll continue utilizing the new Office of World Assembly Affairs, as well as encourage public discussion of WA resolutions. When I am able, I will post OWAA recommendations for resolutions like Toonela has been doing.
Community engagement - I want this region to continue being a fun community for all residents. What makes our region great is not just our comprehensive political system, but our vibrant community. I love seeing the discussions on our discord server, the supportive community we have, and our interactive roleplay. My goal is to bring as many of our members onto the discord server as possible, as well as increasing our on-site presence. I hope to work with the Ministry of Domestic Affairs to hold game nights, regularly post polls, and explore new ideas for roleplay!
All in all, I want to continue the legacies of past Delegates (such as outgoing Delegate Toonela who has committed lots of their time and effort to the region), retaining the traditions that make our region great, while also improving on anything that we can.
My credentials
- I started my political career in the SLU in June of 2021 as Minister of Immigration. I served in the ministry either as minister or deputy minister for more than half a year.
- I served as Chancellor from January to June 2022.
- I currently serve as Minister of Domestic Affairs.
- I helped revive the Union Tribune by establishing the Union Tribune Newsletter, a monthly publication. You can read the latest edition HERE.
- I am a member of the NSLeft Central Committee.
- I have served as an ambassador in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs since April 2021, and as such have acquired experience in foreign relations.
If you have any questions about my campaign, ask me by telegramming me, DM'ing me, or asking me on the discord server! Thank you for reading!
