Non-Aggression Pact between the Fifth Column Confederation and the Coalition of Royal Allied Powers
Preamble
To further Peace and Good Relations, the Fifth Column Confederation (FCC) and the Coalition of Royal Allied Powers (CRAP) agree to the following Terms of Non-Aggression:


Article I: Scope of the Agreement[list=1]




  • In the signing of this pact, it must be clear that both alliances remain sovereign as do the members in each alliance.
  • In the event that either alliance enters into a state of war with a third party, the other alliance is not obligated to participate for either side.
Article II: Prohibition of War[list=1]




  • No member nation of the FCC shall declare war on any member nation of the CRAP.
  • No member nation of the CRAP shall declare war on any member nation of the FCC.
  • Should a member nation of one alliance attack a member nation of the other alliance, the leaders of the attacking nation's alliance must issue a statement that the attacker acted without the consent of their alliance, within 24 hours of notice being sent to the leadership of the attacking nation's alliance.
  • For the purposes of this agreement, any message will be considered 'sent to the leadership' of an alliance if it is posted in the embassy of the sending alliance on the receiving alliance's private forum, or if it is directly relayed to the chief executive or the head of foreign affairs of the receiving alliance, or if it is directly relayed to the diplomat or diplomats assigned by the receiving alliance to the sending alliance, and it shall only be considered 'directly relayed' if the receiving party acknowledges receipt of the message.
  • In case of failure on the part of the attacking nation's alliance to meet with the notification requirement of Article II, Section 3, the defending nation's alliance is free to assume that this treaty has been violated and that a state of war exists between the two alliances.
  • Both before and during the 24 hour notification period, as described in Article II, Section 3, the attacked nation shall not engage in retaliatory attacks against the attacking nation.
  • The attacking nation's alliance is responsible for war reparations at least equal to the losses suffered by the attacked nation, less any losses suffered on the part of the attacking nation should the attacked nation fail to comply with Article II, Section 6.
  • If the attacked nation is not readily identifiable as a member of its alliance - either through use of the alliance affiliation field or the nation bio field - the attacking nation shall not be held responsible for reparations for any damages done prior to learning of the attacked nation's alliance membership.
Article III: Restrictions on Aid[list=1]




  • No member nation of the FCC shall provide aid - be it military, financial, or technological - to enemies of the CRAP.
  • No member nation of the CRAP shall provide aid - be it military, financial, or technological - to enemies of the FCC.
  • For the purposes of this agreement, enemies of the FCC (or the CRAP) shall be defined as those nations and alliances who are in a state of war with the FCC (or the CRAP).
  • For the purposes of this agreement, reparations paid in pursuit of peace shall not be defined as aid.
  • For the purposes of this agreement, should a member nation of either alliance provide aid to an enemy of the other alliance, this shall be considered an attack on the other alliance, and all the rules laid out in Article II shall apply, with the required war reparations being at least equal to the amount used in the aid attack.
Article IV: Cancellation of Treaty[list=1]




  • This treaty may be cancelled, for any reason, and at any time, by the method of decision making among either alliance.
  • Notification of cancellation must be sent to the leadership of the other alliance within 24 hours, and for this purpose the rules laid out in Article II, Section 4 shall apply.
  • Should this treaty be cancelled by either alliance, a 24 hour grace period shall begin, during which neither alliance may declare war on the other.
