With the rise of the Iskarian Intracontinental Union (basically and EU for the continent of Iskar) comes a shift in power to the west. While this group grows in power, the continent of Frimunira weakens and our needs are becoming second to theirs. In the spirit of unionship, growth, and representation, I believe that we should form our own group. Currently there's already a highway being built that will connect the nations of Frimunira together and this group will bring us together further.

I believe that the following should be the objectives of the group. If you have more ideas, comment. If you disagree, say why. This is a union of nations and thus all voices should be heard.
To achieve greater unity and solidarity between the Frimuniran countries and Frimunirans.
To defend the sovereignty, territorial integrity and independence of its Members.
To accelerate the political and social-economic integration of the continent.
To promote and defend Frimuniran common positions on issues of interest to the continent and its peoples.
To encourage international cooperation
To promote peace, security, and stability on the continent.
To promote democratic principles and institutions, popular participation and good governance.
To promote and protect sapience rights (because in NationStates, humans are not the only ones with rights, but A.I. and some animals as well).
To establish the necessary conditions which enable the continent to play its rightful role in the global economy and in international negotiations.
To promote sustainable development at the economic, social and cultural levels as well as the integration of Frimuniran economies.
To promote co-operation in all fields of human activity to raise the living standards of Frimuniran peoples.
To advance the development of the continent by promoting research in all fields, in particular in science and technology.
Name We need a name, so I believe we should propose some and see which is best. Personally, I believe we should be more creative than something like Frimunrian Union. I propose simply the name of The Central Powers since Frimunira is at the center of all DSA maps. Ignore how that group in WWI shared the name, that group doesn't exist in the DSA.
Headquarters I also believe we should establish a location to headquarter our group. I don't know if it would be a good idea to locate it in the DSA Capital or not since it serves as the capital of the entire DSA. However, the area is good due to being the middle of the continent and thus not skewed in distance toward or away from part of the continent. With this, I propose we headquarter our group directly south of the Capital in my territory of Ophir so that it is still central, close to the DSA Capital, and is inside stable borders.
This is a great idea that I will put my full support behind. I agree with the proposed objectives/principles of such a union, and have some suggestions for the other bits you mentioned.
Name - Assembly of Frimuniran States, United Frimuniran Congress, something like that. I think it would have to have Frimunira somewhere in the title.
Capital - if we were only to have one capital I would suggest having it on some sort of neutral territory, or we could form an administrative centre in each Frimuniran subcontinent and vote on where to put them.

I'm not too fond of "Assembly of Frimuniran States" since some members could be anarchist nations and not necessarily states (since the DSA does have a higher rate of anarchist players than other regions). So I feel like we should keep things like States out of the name for that.
As for the capital, we can establish a neutral zone. The part of the Charter that talks about the map doesn't say we can't form neutral zone (for example, DSA Capital exists on there and doesn't have a nation). But I do like your idea of administrative centers in each region. With that, I would propose that these be the region: Ghasi region, West Debsia region, Ordennyan Region, and Northern Region. I feel that these divisions would best represent the people of each region.
I dont think it is such a good idea to put it in the dsa capital I feel like the other continent would take offense and say we were trying monopolize what is supposed to be neutral zone for everybody then again it could be a strong power move on our part to remind them all that we surround the capital and could easily seize it whenever we want
I think it's a good idea, and my nation will definitely be interested in joining. I think one thing I would suggest for the regions, the northern region seems way to small, without many nations or room for future nations. I think we should expand it into the northern part of the red region. Maybe something like this:
Also instead of having a unique capital city, perhaps members could take turns hosting the congress?
