Ainslie, the World Assembly and its implications on TWI canon

Ainslie, the World Assembly and its implications on the canon of The Western Isles

Wow this is gonna be a fun topic, especially for the Islanders amongst us who are probably quite startled by the title and the suggestion that Ainslie is going to integrate the World Assembly into The Western Isles’ canon. I can assure that that is not the case. Hold on, let me explain myself.

So, you may be asking why I am doing this. It is in fact part of a recent focus on Ahnslen law that I have had recently. There’s a dispatch that is a work in progress which discusses this, but lets just explain it here as well. First of all, let’s start with a definition of canon because I’m going to be using that word a lot in this dispatch.

Canon: Information and/or storylines mutually accepted as being official and true in the context of one another's storylines within a roleplay community.

So, what are the sources of Ahnslen law (Where do they come from?) from an out of character respective, that being irrespective of either Ainslie’s WA or TWI canon.

  • Australian Law and New South Wales Law. This should be assumed OOC, but is not reflected in anyway IC.

  • That dispatch I was mentioning before that's still WIP, which provides the exceptions to Australian law.

And now I add a new source.

  • The World Assembly

This is going to be a bit complicated and it is really best to look at it from both perspectives - from the perspective of Ainslie’s TWI canon and its WA canon.

From the perspective of The World Assembly’s canon

  • Ainslie’s canon is exactly the same as described in factbooks as these with the exception that there is a World Assembly component which forms part of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade. There is also an ambassador to the World Assembly from Ainslie - Aiden Rimmington.

  • The World Assembly sees Ainslie ratifying their resolutions in comparison to The Western Isles who will see Ainslie creating their own laws from scratch with no credit to the World Assembly.

  • The Security Council will remain as being considered non-canon whilst the General Assembly will be seen as canon.

From the perspective of the canon of The Western Isles

  • Ainslie’s canon is exactly the same as described in factbooks with the exception of all of the factbooks that discuss the involvement of the World Assembly.

  • There is no World Assembly component which forms part of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.

  • The Western Isles will see Ainslie creating their own laws from scratch, with no World Assembly Involvement whereas the World Assembly will see Ainslie ratifying the resolutions.

  • The Security Council and the General Assembly are both considered non-canon

So what does this create?
It creates an environment where Ainslie can interact with the World Assembly in a meaningful manner whilst Ainslie can also interact with The Western Isles. It also creates a way for me to easily integrate laws regarding the environment and Human Rights that Australia (my first source of Ahnslen law) does not have. I really want to interact with World Assembly without sacrificing my immersion in The Western Isles’ canon and this seems to be a healthy compromise to that. I also welcome other nations of The Western Isles to follow suit.

So what is the exact relationship with Ahnslen law and the resolutions of the General Assembly?

  • The Various International Obligations Act 2017 (UE) and subsequent provisions which incorporates General Assembly resolutions: 2, 4, 6, 7, 9, 17, 18, 20, 37, 38, 77, 80,108, 188, 193, 229, 247, 255, 293, 334.

    These form part of the domestic law of the Unified Electorates of Ainslie.

Note: Remember, the World Assembly will recognise this as Ahnslen law which was ratified whereas The Western Isles’ canon will see this as originally produced law.
