Penguin

Regional Goals
Penguin is a region that seeks to represent all penguins worldwide. The goal of our region is to represent penguins to the United Nations. Too often, penguins have been oppressed by the Polar Bears and Leopard Seals. It is time that there was a united force to stand up for the rights of penguins.

Our legislative goals are as follows:
- More fishing regulations in the Antarctic Ocean to protect the dwindling food supply of penguins throughout the region
- Controls on the emissions of greenhouse gases in an attempt to reduce the effects of global warming and polar ice cap melting
- Stricter punishments for first time offending Polar Bears known to go on feeding rampages at elementary schools

History
Penguin was founded on November 16, 2006 by the Free Land of Penguindoms as a haven for oppressed penguin nations. The following NS week was followed by rapid growth as many nations of penguins who had been oppressed or just wanted a new home migrated to the region. By December, Penguin had reached a regional population hovering at about 30 nations, where it has remained into 2007.

The first Delegate to the United Nations was Werepenguins, whose reign was brief, but set a precedent for future delegates. The next delegate was Magical Penguins, who took a 14 NS day vacation after being elected before a new candidate received enough endorsements to take control. The third and current delegate is the nation of The Only Penguin. Her reign over Penguin has been fair and her UN representation has protected the interests of penguins across the world.

The current political boundaries of Penguin can be found on the regional map[1].
