The Ironclad Concordat

Drafted on the 14th of the Sun’s Smile, 1606

 

 

 This document will serve as proof to all nations that the Ironclad Pact between the Grand Kingdom of Urguan and the Third Reformation of The Teutonic Order, under Hochmeister Sergei, has been renewed. The following are the terms and conditions agreed upon by both parties:
 

• This pact is to be classified as a defensive alliance. Both nations hereby agree to support one another with no less than the entirety of their military strength, should it be warranted. However, this will be nullified if, in a combat scenario between two warring states, both states are allies of a signatory.
   
• The cordial relations between both signatories must not be infringed. It is the duty of both member-states to adhere to a strict non-aggression principle.
  • If broken the offender is subject to the full extent of justice within the country they find themselves and tried by the state within which the principle was violated.
     

• Member-States are expected to uphold a principle of free trade between both nations and free travel, without barrier, for citizens of one nation to the other, and vice-versa, as well as for the militaries of both nations.

  • The ports of both nations will be opened for the ships of their respective state to dock at any time.
     
• Both signatories agree to acknowledge the borders of the other; to each an expectation of sovereignty is placed. Whilst trade will be unhindered, both signatories are to respect the other and remain absent from each other’s. internal affairs. Both signatories must remain free and un-subservient to the will of any people but their own.
  • The holding of public office by a citizen of another member-state is strictly prohibited.
     
  • The aiding or abetting of rebels by a member-state within the lands of another member-state is intolerable.
     
• Both signatories agree to the placement of an Embassy within the territory of the other as a show of good faith.
  • Signatories are obliged to appoint ambassadors to their respective Embassies.
     
  •  Those appointed representatives are to be granted diplomatic immunity.
     
  • Signatories are granted the right to extradite their given ambassador to their nation of origin.
     
• Both signatories hereby agree to assist each other in the destruction of any state, or conglomerate of states, which shows clear and definitive interest in the establishment of an empire of any nature.
