The Templar Knights
Non Aggression Pact


Templars sitting aRound the Table

Preamble

With the intention of enhancing the security and prosperity of Knights around the globe, The Templar Knights honored to enter into this treaty with our brethren in the Knights of the Round Table; a community with which we already have such cherished and admirable relations. Let it become publicly known that this agreement, serving as a symbol of our mutual respect and fellowship, will enable our respective memberships to flourish as both signatories agree to uphold the following articulated terms in good faith.

Article I: Sovereignty

Whereas the sovereign governance of both alliances shall never be impeded, neither party is hitherto subject to the implications of the official decrees made by the other signatory.

Article II: Non-Aggression

In the spirit of fellowship, both signatories are henceforth prohibited from participating, supporting, or condoning, the aggressive pursuit of military action by each of their respective members toward their counterparts. If a member nation of either signatory contravenes this article, the said individual will be obligated to surrender the monetary equivalent of such damages and declare peace within twenty-four hours; these reparations are subject to the stipulation that they will be considered forfeit if their transaction violates any existing treaty, document, or instrument of surrender. No defending nation may retaliate unless the aggressor fails to comply with these terms within twenty-four hours.

In the unfortunate circumstance that the aggressor refuses to acknowledge the aforementioned terms and obligations, without credible reason, the offender's fate will be decided by a discussion between the governments of TTK and KoRT and he/she will be subject to disciplinary action as mutually determined by the signatories.

Article III: Civility

The membership of both signatories will continue to recognize each other as equals and will endeavor to uphold the professional conduct and mutual respect that has been a natural occurrence throughout our public and private communications.

Article IV: Aid

In the spirit of charity, either signatory may request military or financial aid from the other; such a request may be issued under the context of a rogue attack, nuclear conflict, or an inter-alliance war. Whereas the recipient of such a request will be given seventy-two hours to discuss its denial or approval, this process will be null and void if the transmission of such aid would violate any other signed treaty, document, or instrument of surrender.

Article V: Espionage

Both parties agree that espionage shall not be committed by one signatory against the other under any circumstance.

Article VI: Intelligence

Neither alliance shall withhold any information that constitutes a reasonable threat to the security or welfare of the other; such pertinent information must be relayed through private channels immediately.

Article VII: Economic Prosperity

Both signatories shall give precedence, priority and preference to completing mutually beneficial economic transactions with each other; to further the common wealth and security of both memberships, these agreements shall include donation deals, resource trades, and tech purchasing arrangements. This article is subject to availability at the time of the request and is subject to the discretion of both signatories.

Article VIII: Termination

Either signatory may cancel this agreement by privately issuing fourty-eight hours notice; any intentional or planned violation of these articles may result in the nullification of this treaty unless both parties expressly agree to the warranted action.

Conclusion

By signing this treaty and affixing our seals, in good faith, we agree to adhere to the above stated terms to the best of our abilities. May the spirit of this agreement enable our alliances to flourish amidst peace and prosperity; together.
