Herein is a Treaty of Peace and Amity between the Tau Ceti Empire and the Kortl Society.
The Kortl and Tau Ceti peoples desirous of establishing further permanence to their longstanding peaceful trade agreements propose an unrelenting period of Peace, Friendship and good Understanding between them.
First Article
There shall be a firm and universal peace between the Kortl and the Tau Ceti and between their respective principalities, including all planets, colonies, remote stations, and people of every degree without exception of places. No hostilities shall occur between the two peoples, including the damaging of any holdings or claimed holdings. There is no statement made regarding mutually claimed holdings, assuming such claims result in a shared and peaceful coexistence within such holdings.
Second Article
Wherein there is a dispute, both parties agree to resolve all matters peacefully and for each species to elect a non-adjacent power to arbitrate disagreements and refrain from threats of force or the use of galactic communications to defame each-other.
Third Article
Parties will, in order to effectively achieve the objectives of this agreement, continuously help and mutually aid each-other, particularly in the case to immediately mutually assist each-other in the event of an attack. An attack against one party constitutes an attack against all members. An attack is deemed to be any military incursion or attack upon a colonized or developed (with permanent star-bases) sector of the member.
Fourth Article
Each party declares that this agreement supersedes any other international agreement, and that this agreement does not come in conflict with other agreements.
Fifth Article
This agreement shall expire in a period of ten years, but may be renewed at that time after consultations between members.
Sixth Article
A technical treaty of Partnership or (at least) Military Alliance shall be maintained for the duration of this agreement. If a member intends to enter partnership with another species, that member is required to provide three months of advance notice, to permit the treaty downgrade to Military Alliance in order to prevent unintentional the merger of intelligence networks.
