Mushroom Kingdom and Ragnarok
Preamble:
This document hereby attests the strong relations between Ragnarok and the Mushroom Kingdom, as well as the commitments taken by each signatory to respect, communicate and flourish together through a constructive relation. It is proof that each alliance holds the other in high regard and has the best intentions towards maintaining a fruitful, close and constructive bound with the other.
Article I
Both signatory alliances shall be resolute in their insistence that their respective members remain polite and civil to each other at all times, especially in public venues. They pledge to never attempt to intervene in each others policies or politics, to never plan or knowingly allow any harm upon the other in any way, be it by military or financial means. If neither signatory has the means to prevent such an act or should an accident happen, the offending signatory is to pay 150% of the damages caused to the other.
Article II
Both of the signatory alliances and their respective members recognize and will respect each other's sovereignty and political independence. They will develop good neighbourly relations of co-operation between them to ensure lasting security. They will refrain from espionage and the threat or use of force against each other and will settle all disputes between them by peaceful means.
Article III
In signing these protocols, both signatory alliances recognize that full and frank communication is the foundation for a strong and enduring relationship and that there is mutual benefit for both alliances when open communication between them is maintained. To that end, both signatory alliances agree to productive two-way inter-alliance communication:
a.) The signatory alliances agree that whenever a situation arises which involves provisions within these protocols or other issues of mutual concern; there shall be full and frank communication between the signatory alliances.
b.) The signatory alliances shall encourage and promote effective methods of dispute resolution between the signatory alliances and their respective member nations.
c.) The signatory alliances commit to frequent and recurring dialogue on each others forums and IRC channels. This commitment is based on the view that open access to each others communication channels is essential to the rapid and efficient inter-alliance communication. This shall include communication at the alliance leadership level where on an as needed basis, representatives of the highest decision making bodies of the signatory alliances will jointly meet to discuss issues of mutual concern. This shall be in addition to routine diplomatic communications and the regular communication between normal members.
d.) Should any possible conflict arise between any ally of a signatory and the other, both alliances are to assist diplomatically and constructively to the private conversations of said problem and make best effort to successfully disarm the problem without endangering their relations to any extent.
Article IV
Neither signatory alliance will knowingly engage in the use of sanctions against member nations of the other signatory alliance without formal, written permission from the other signatory alliance. Neither signatory alliance shall endorse, fund, approve or engage in military action against the other signatory alliance. If an individual member nation of either signatory alliance is found in violation of this article, it shall be directed to offer peace and reparations equivalent to 150% of the total damages inflicted. Defending nations shall be encouraged to defer reprisal actions until a diplomatic solution can be reached.
a.) Should the offending member nation of a signatory alliance refuse to offer peace and agree on reparations terms, said member nation will be declared a rogue and will no longer be offered the protection of either signatory alliance.
b.) If a signatory alliance violates this article, such activity shall be considered an act of war.
Article V
Neither signatory alliance shall knowingly endorse, fund, approve or engage in espionage or other covert action against the other signatory alliance. Both signatory alliances agree not to actively or passively recruit member nations of the other alliance for the purpose of committing espionage. If either signatory alliance collects intelligence regarding a security breach or a credible threat concerning the other signatory alliance, the acquiring signatory alliance will convey all relevant information in their possession to the other signatory alliance.
a.) Should a member nation of a signatory alliance violate this article, said member nation will be declared a rogue and will no longer be offered the protection of either signatory alliance.
b.) If a signatory Alliance violates this article, such activity shall be considered an act of war.
Article VI
Each hereby signatory will recognize an offensive attack on one as a declaration on both and act appropriately. Hence each will provide full support to the other through any means necessary and act as a whole unit defensively.
Article VII
If one signatory finds itself in the position where the only option is an offensive strike, they may request the other signatories assistance. The other signatory is not required to participate though.

Article VIII
