Official Notice of Consulate Closure
Wintreath announces the severance of relations with Union of Confederate Regions, effective immediately.
Since establishing relations with UCR several days ago, we have become aware of allegations against the founder and emperor of the region, as well as allegations of deeply questionable conduct in the region's Discord server. As we had not sent UCR an ambassador yet, we have no experience with their Discord and could not speak to the validity of these allegations. However, the unprecedented actions of NationStates moderation in
forbidding links to it would appear to be an objective confirmation of them.
Wintreath strongly believes in a region's sovereign right to develop the culture and principles it desires, and we're proud of our own open, personable, and free-wheeling culture. However, with this right comes the responsibility to do so in a way that keeps its community and members safe, and it is becoming apparent that UCR failed in that responsibility. Knowing this, we cannot in good conscience maintain ties with this region, and thus we choose not to.
