The Long March Accords

The North Atlantic Defense Coalition and the Legion hereby commit to uphold the following principles of nonaggression, respect, and defense outlined in this Optional Defense Pact.
I. Sovereignty
The North Atlantic Defense Coalition and the Legion recognize each other as sovereign entities. Neither party will engage in covert or overt attempts to maliciously influence the others choices be they in foreign or internal affairs.
II. Non-Aggression
No member nation of either alliance will declare war on any member nation of the other, provide aid (be it military, money, technology, or knowledge) to enemies of the other, or commit acts of espionage against the other. If there is a nation responsible from either side that violates this part of the pact, both sides shall work toward a resolution of the matter in a responsible and respectful manner including the discussion of reparations.
III. Diplomatic Relations and Expectations
Both alliances will be friendly in communications towards one another in all public dealings and communications including,
but not limited to, declarations on the Open World Forum and in the public IRC channels of both parties. In private, both alliances are free to express their honest opinions.
IV. Defense
In the event that one of the signatories of this treaty is attacked, the other party is highly encouraged, though not obligated, to provide any and all assistance including intelligence, diplomatic, financial and military aid up to full military intervention.
V. Cancellation
If either signatory alliance wishes to withdraw from this treaty, they may do so by the express will of their respective decision making bodies. Should this treaty be revoked by either alliance, official notification initiates a Seventy-Two hour grace period, in which neither alliance may engage in any hostile actions against the other.
