The Ministry of Foreign Affairs
Statement on Recent Events in Europeia The Treaty of Friendship between The South Pacific and Europeia (2012) is the oldest extant treaty between TSP and an ally. We want to state our support for the Europeian government in the face of recent difficult events. We also condemn the KoGB for their subversive efforts and despicable tactics. We have great respect for Europeia's long history and vibrant culture, and wish them all the best towards a swift resolution regarding this matter.

Game of Thrones Festival Finale The Game of Thrones Festival has concluded with a riveting finale! This festival celebrated the shared camaraderie between two great regions, The Pacific and The South Pacific, and our shared love for the Game of Thrones books and TV Show. All festival partakers had to declare for one of the great, noble Houses. House Pergamon swept the competition with 67 points and reigns on the Iron Throne. It was a well-deserved victory with members showing their expert knowledge of both the show and series. ![[Image: ZeSiN0f.gif]](https://i.imgur.com/ZeSiN0f.gif) Once more TSP enjoyed the presences of allies, friends and fans at a fun cultural event. Once more, TSP enjoys mixing and intermingling with the NPO and its cool people. We look forward to further camaraderie. ![[Image: DstvnGp.gif]](https://i.imgur.com/DstvnGp.gif)

Foreign Affairs Updates Are you ready for it? 1. TSP has two new allies that we are super HYPED about: A. the Union of Democratic States UDS is a burgeoning region with over 400 nations. They've got a very vibrant culture, a growing RP community, and a rather active R/D Military that serves as the more-or-less flagship of the FORGE alliance. In addition, The UDS N-Day Alliance was very effective, and they really used their cultural and diplomatic resources to a very respectable 6th place which demonstrated their community unity. The UDS is also internationally active and supported TSP in The Defender Expo as well as organized the R\D Olympic games. Having worked with their people closely, they are really great and fun people! B. Conch Kingdom Conch Kingdom is an active region and the South Pacific has collaborated with the region and its larger umbrella network (formerly the Augustin Alliance) on several occasions whether through military coordination with TOP an independent military in the truest sense of the word, cultural and international events (including the Defender Expo challenges) and most recently through the N-day pact with Totally Not the AA (this faction has won the N day event for the second time in a row due to their dedicated players and excellent coordination and strategy). This treaty strengthens these bonds and shared interests across military, regional, cultural, and international venues for both sides. Having worked with people from Conch Kingdom and the AA, they have proven to be warm and of generous spirit. We'll of course be holding a lovely event, a gala to celebrate our new friends! 2. TSP FA has introduced a revamped Ambassadors program! Check it out here and start travelling the NS world to spread good cheer and some fun bite size updates on our phenomenal region. 3. The SPSF Flag Contest Is on FIRE Check out stunning entries submitted here and start talking about your faves! Want to submit an entry?

Fall 2017 Election Results The South Pacific's Fall 2017 term elections concluded yesterday night. Candidates campaigned over a week and engaged in town hall discussions and debates where TSPers asked questions about their platforms and visions for the region. Election results show that the region has overwhelmingly validated the platforms and goals that the winning candidates have envisioned for the region. Indeed, analysis of the platforms and implementations that each elected representative have been part of for the past year speak to the region embracing the trajectory TSP has been over the past year. Prime Minister Roavin has been re-elected as Prime Minister of the region with 87% of the votes in his favor. In the past term, Roavin has defined the role of the Prime Minister, a position that has no clearly outlined portfolio, as a leadership role that guides and mentors cabinet members, and is active and engaged with the people on the forums, gameside, and via Discord. He has promised to continue that vision into the following term. Tim, a new addition to the cabinet, received 93.3% of the vote and is the new Minister of Foreign Affairs. Tim is an individual with a wealth of experience in regions such as Osiris and Spiritus and has served as the deputy Foreign Affairs minister in the previous term. He was elected on a campaign in which he highlighted continuing the FA trajectory undertaken by the region in which the focus was on strengthening current alliances and building new alliances based on cultural connections and mutual respect. In an election surprise, the most popular and beloved member of the South Pacific, Tsunamy, ran for Foreign Affairs before dropping out, stating his confidence in Tim’s vision and that that his real goals were to highlight a needed change in election procedures and a desire to see Foreign Affairs engage with RMBers on the gameside and through embassy posting. Seraph re-enters the cabinet as Minister of Regional affairs, with 96.7% of the vote. Seraph had previously been Minister of Regional Affairs twice and each term innovated in the position - in particular bringing a greater emphasis to writing creative projects, and RMB-side involvement in the region. This term, Seraph ran on a platform in which he emphasized integration of new players on the gameside and forums, continuing to build on the cohesion between the Regional Affairs and Foreign Affairs ministries, and focusing on improving the journalism in the region. Seraph is also head of the Souther Progress Platform - a party that is best encapsulated in this quote by Seraph, “I have a great deal of faith in the potential this region has to be so much more awesome than it already is and I really want to see that awesomeness reaching out to the maximum number of players, so everyone has a chance to get involved, share a talent, make an impact or just have a really good time.” Escade transitions from Foreign Affairs to Minister of Military Affairs, with 89% of the vote. Escade has previously been Minister of Foreign Affairs for two terms and campaigned on developing a strong culture for the SPSF and building stronger cohesion between Military Affairs, Foreign Affairs, and Regional Affairs. She brings with her a great understanding of the military, having honorably served the South Pacific Special Forces in the past year, as well as her unique cultural leadership style, refined during her two terms in Foreign Affairs. The South Pacific is a region that defies the odds and the naysayers by keeping true to the values that make us what we are. Congratulations to all who campaigned, all who partook in the electoral process and here’s to another awesome term in the South Pacific
