Seeing as Illyriad is becoming rather clustered and "tight" to avoid possible conflict with our neighboring alliances, we have come to a decision to bring about the Act represented below!
For clarity we have decided to share this with those who are not in the agreement but wish to have clarity as to why the alliances involved our in confederacy or wish to join the agreement at a later date.
Thanks
Harry

The Mutual defence and trade agreement
2011
(The Lancetia treaty)
(1) The introduction of this agreement between the respective
aliances of nCrow and Minions of Crom, with the further possibility for
other alliances to join the agreement, is to ensure the consolidation of
each respective alliances borders*, the further
strengthening of ties between the four alliances and then mutual
defense and trade that it will bring.
*Borders as outlined in (1A) is the right to grow and maintain a city
of that members respective alliance as well as the growth of the
alliance "hub" and its maintaining.
(1A) Each respective Member alliance will have the right to settle,
grow and maintain a city in the area of the other respective members
hubs if it is 10 squares away from another repsective member of any
other member alliance. However this can be nullified
if said member has given permission to move within the 10 square
territory that the moving or settling player wishes to occupy.
(1Ai) If a member of an alliance has enacted this claus and then
leaves the repsective alliance later, then that player will be allowed
to stay within the area but is still bound to an additional claus-
(1Aii)
(1Aii) As mentioned in (1Ai) the player who has left ,ust keep to 2
sovereign spots in each direction and not without the knowledge of the
respective alliances still left within the treaty.
(1B) In the event of a war with another alliance outside this
agreement were to take place that has in the eyes of the other
respective members of this agreement as not of the doing of the alliance
in question, then the members of this agreement will see
fit to provide support and arms where neccesary to aid in the defense
of the respective alliances "hub"
(2) Trade (This clause will only come into effect if pathfinding is brought in)
(2A) The trade between the respective member alliances will be for
the sole purpose to better the alliances standings in wealth. This then
means that if a member alliance wishes to set up a contract either
permanent or non-permanent for large amounts of
trade, then they must first contact the other member alliances and lay
terms there first. If this is then passed without acknowledgememt from
any said alliance within 3 Illyriad days from the time it was proposed.
The alliance who wishes to deal with trade
can then forward this to another alliance outside the agreement.
(3) Diplomacy
To consolidate said agreement, each alliance will enter into confederation to acknowledge the agreement and its terms.
The terms and agreement will also be posted on the forum to provide clarity to all outside the proposed agreement.
In the event of a war, the confederates of nCrow will not have to
abide by any agreement made by nCrow and thus will not be expected to
participate in the defense of any other alliance in this agreement*
*However the crow confederates will still protect the wing of nCrow
and may be contacted for support outside of this agreement in the event
of hostilities, this does not mean that nCrow will ensure the support of
the crow confederates but rather that they
can be contacted outside of the agreement and outside the initial
knowledge and being of nCrow respectively.
(4) All past agreements by respective member alliances become
nullified and void within the new agreement and therefore have no
bearing on this current agreement and its sanctions and directives.
(4A) If a member alliance continues to break the sanctions and
directives of the agreement then the other member states will take
action and come to a conclusion on the fine or punishement.
(4AI) If there is a willing persistance to break the sanctions and
directives of this agreement, then the other member alliances will take a
vote to decide the being of that respective alliance and it's place
within the agreement.
IN SHORT:
1. The alliances are entering into a confederation and agree to
defend each other against aggression by other alliances or players.
Mutual defense will include supply of arms, resources and reinforcing
troops as well as breaking siege camps on cities of
players who are members of confederated alliances. Member alliances
may if requested participate in retaliatory strike against players or
alliances that have committed acts of aggression, however, this
agreement does not imply an absolute commitment to do
so.
2. Members of the alliances can settle within the area defined as
alliance hubs, but must request permission before settling within 10
squares of a player in a confederated alliance.
3. When pathfinding is implemented, the alliances pledge to provide
access to trade contracts, roads and other trade facilities. |
