GoodGuyMatt 7066 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2022 THE ACCORD OF THE FIRST HARVEST ARTICLE I: On Recognition Upon the declaration of this alliance, the Viscounty of Rivia, the Barony of Acre, and Theoderic’s Warband, hereupon named “the Allies'', do pledge mutual allegiance to one another, recognizing and support one another claims to their respective authorities upon their people, lands, and titles. Thus agreeing that: Each Ally holds the only legitimate claim to their respective titles and authorities that come with them, as follows: The Viscount of Rivia and House of Galbraith as the only legitimate claimants of the Viscounty of Rivia, and any titles vassalized under them. The Baron of Acre and House of de Vilain as the only legitimate claimants of the Barony of Acre, and any titles vassalized under them The Theoderic’s Warchiefs as the only legitimate leaders of the Theoderic’s Warband, and any titles they might obtain. None of the Allies may claim legitimacy to any of the other’s two titles or lands. ARTICLE II: On Defensive Assistance The Allies do hereupon agree to provide military assistance to one another in the event of aggression towards any of the Allies, or in the event of pending aggression. The Allies do also agree to train their warriors together whenever the chance for such is given, thus enforcing the good relations between the Allies. Furthermore, the Allies agree to not engage in military recruitment within the other’s lands, or recruit any of the other Allies’ subjects, unless both Allies agree to such. These terms shall not be upheld if said aggressor or party pending aggression is his Majesty, the King of Oren. Neither will it uphold if the loyalty of an Ally towards the Crown of the Kingdom may be taken into question. ARTICLE III: On Trade Agreement and Exchange The Allies do hereupon agree to engage in open trade and exchange between one another. These include any materials produced by any of the Allies, be it crops, animals, metal, or weaponry. Each Ally may require the others to trade any produce, and all Allies do agree that such trade will be conducted in good will, so that all parties involved may profit. ARTICLE IV: On Travel and Legal Authority The Allies do hereupon agree to allow the free, unrestricted movement of one another’s subjects or warriors in their lands, without harassment or bother, lest the individuals traveling have been found to break the laws of the Kingdom or respective Ally. The Allies do also recognize the legal authority that each of them have in their respective lands. If an Ally’s subject is found to break the law within the land of another, the Lord of the land may trial them as they see fit. ARTICLE V: On Squires and Pages The Allies do hereupon agree to allow and engage in the exchange of squires and pages between the Noble Houses of Galbraith and de Vilain, thus fostering better noble relations with their heirs and pedigrees. Furthermore, Theoderic’s Warband does agree to allow any nobles sent by the other two Allies to temporarily join them in order to learn their ways of war. ARTICLE VI: On Diplomatic and Political Cooperation The Allies do hereupon agree to engage in both diplomatic and political cooperation with one another, doing so in good faith, aiming for mutual benefit. Neither of the Allies shall offer political support for any claimants to the Allies titles or lands. ARTICLE VI: On Duration The Allies do hereupon agree that the alliance is to last a period of ten years with the option of renewal or revocation upon expiration. The Allies do also agree that in the event of political change or turmoil, they may gather to rediscuss the agreements of the alliance, doing so in good faith.

excited 10833 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Derfey, grass roots legislator, is proud of the work being done by his Barcloid allies. "The best people, I'll tell you." He combed his orange receding hairline back, his wide gums visible beneath his obscene lips, a narrow veneer of flesh that hardly obscured his glinting, grinning yellowed teeth. "Love to have them in Oren, I do. Emperor Phil would be the proudest, the proudest I tell ya." 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalvinOP 390 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Rickard Barrow is pleased with the recent news. "Ea can vouch that this alliance shall be prosperity to those in poverty and death to those who attempt to go against it." Rickard spoke as he gulped a large flask of ale, a enormous, vigorous smile appears which rested on Rickard's charming facial expression. "Ave Oren!" 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DESRRALACK 10 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Even though Alija was present at the time of the signing, to this day, he still wonders what is going on. But don't worry, he'll find out one of these days; he's just an old man who barely knows anything about politics. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
