A quarter of a century prior, Almaris witnessed the end of hostilities which had engulfed a great many nations within the flames of war, beginning a period of peace that has lasted to the present day. That war was ended and subsequent peace held by the combined actions of the parties within the now-expired East Almaris Treaty Organization (EATO). It is the belief of those who enter into this treaty that, with hopes of maintaining the current peace without a renewal of the aforementioned organization, a renewed Defensive Alliance between the Dual Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska & the Grand Kingdom of Urguan will act as a deterrent to future wars upon them and offer a continued stability to Almaris.
