The Argic-Thalassan-Alharun Regional Association, as known by its acronym ATARA, comprises of an array of Argic, Thalassan, and Alharun states that is meant to encourage solidarity and cooperation amongst its members to strengthen relations and to aid in times of need, whether they are man-made or natural. This also involves matters of scientific, social, cultural, technical, and administrative fields. ATARA's headquarters is in Porto Altaria, Iverica.

Membership

Membership of ATARA is classified as either Member, Sui Generis Member, or Observer.^[2] ATARA operates under the "ATARA Procedural Addendum"^[3], or ATARA PA-01 which functions as the source for the organisation's bylaws. Within Procedure II of the PA-01, the Member status is defined as:

...the primary role and rank of a state within the Association. Member States are those granted the majority of voting power and responsibility. Member States are also obligated to attend the Assemblies when called, represented by their chosen delegate.

Whereas Observer Status is defined as:

...a spectator and outside party given the privilege to witness association proceedings and, on some occasions, give comment on association matters. This status is not exclusive to the Tricontinental area and may be extended to any state of Eurth provided that sponsorship has been licitly secured.

Lastly, Sui Generis Status is defined as:

...a unique case wherein an applicant state located outside of the continents of either Argis, Thalassa, or Alharu, has appealed to the sitting Panel for Member Status. This must be in light of outstanding contributions in economic, cultural, or humanitarian efforts which contribute towards the Association’s Charter statements.

Any type of member or observer may choose to withdraw from the ATARA at any point, whether or not a session is in order. The delegate of a member or observer state may make issue a formal announcement of their withdrawal from all rights and privileges granted by the Association. The Association will in turn, bar this state from further proceedings and issue a public announcement of the state's withdrawal. Any former member or observer may choose to re-apply for a ATARA status at any point, provided no suspension or further restrictions have been enacted.
