[b]Dissolution of the United Jungle Accords[/b][/center]


The first and second United Jungle Accords served a purpose as cementing a spirit of cooperation between the alliances of green. Born out of a hostile environment, the words of the document combined with the sands of time to help heal old wounds and erode that hostility.

These Accords have been in place for a long time, and in that time the Cyberverse has seen major change, especially when sphere politics is concerned. Now that the era of 'free trade' is upon us per se, the importance of sphere-based treaties has dwindled to the point where they are not necessary. The United Jungle Accords, easily the most symbolic of all of the purely symbolic treaties, is not immune to that fate.

The Viridian Entente, as the one of the two lone signatories and speaking for the other (Pandemic, our protectorate without a political government), does hereby enact the fourth clause of the Fifth United Jungle Accord, and hereby dissolves the United Jungle Accords.

The spirit of the document will live on, as well as its intentions. We will continue to trade with our fellow members of green, and handle the senate in the same way from our end. We wish all alliances on green a safe and fruitful existence, and will always extend a helping hand to those who need it.

The one responsibility we do feel a need to carry forward on an official capacity is the Fourth United Jungle Accord, where we handle Team Sponsored Protectorates, and with the dissolution of UJA, we do hereby announce this treaty of protection:

[b]Protection Agreement: Viridian Entente - Green Old Party[/b][/center]

[b]Article I: Preamble[/b]

In the spirit of good will, prosperity, and longtime friendship, the Viridian Entente (henceforth referred to as VE), and the Green Old Party (henceforth referred to as GOP) do hereby recognize this protectorate agreement as official and agree to all terms and conditions therein. They recognize that the GOP shall remain a protectorate of VE, even in the event of the dissolution of the United Jungle Accords.

[b]Article II: Protection[/b]

In any instance where the GOP finds itself in an unprovoked defensive war, VE agrees to offer all necessary assistance to ensure the GOP's protection and well being. Should the GOP be the provoker in a conflict, VE may offer its assistance at its own discretion. The GOP, at its own discretion, can offer assistance to VE in the event that the GOP's Don't Tread on Me Accords might allow for such action.

[b]Article III: Communication[/b]

Both the GOP and VE agree that communication is key to any relationship. Both parties will continue to keep each other up to date on all important information. Both parties agree to keep each other informed about any foreign affairs decisions they may make that could otherwise impact the other, but with the understanding that both the GOP and VE are autonomous, sovereign alliances - capable and encouraged to make decisions in keeping with their own self-interest when not otherwise bound by this agreement.

[b]Section IV: Economy[/b]

The Viridian Entente and the Green Old Party hereby enter a relationship wherein both parties agree to help the other in building a strong economy by any reasonable means available. Both parties will grant each other preferred status in buying and selling technology at rates determined by mutually agreed upon supply and demand. Both parties will also grant each other preferred status as trade circle partners. The two parties also agree to assist in the election of a senator from each alliance, when reasonably possible.

[b]Section V: Cancellation[/b]

Either party may cancel this agreement with 72 hours notice to the other party. During this 72 hours, the agreement remains completely in effect.

This joint venture with GOP shall fund my effort to increase taxes on all Viridians (more tech, now!)

Anyway, hails and all that.
[/quote]I expect the GOP will be rather disappointed to hear of their inadvertent involvement in a measure to raise taxes.

Sad to see; colour politics were always the most fun politics.

Sad to see the dissolution of the UJA, but being able to set your own resources pretty much made it inevitable.

Thanks to VE for working proactively with us to put a replacement protection agreement in place.

o/ Green
o/VE

EDIT: Also, we refer to the protection as an agreement, not a treaty. "Treaty" is a four-letter word in the GOP :D

I thought GOP was neutral... :unsure:

Soft neutral. This means they reserve the right to intervene in any affair they consider within their sphere of interest, without binding themselves to defensive agreements.

[quote name='willij' timestamp='1273026926' post='2287183']For those who aren't familier, the GOP is politically neutral in that we do not align ourselves with specific alliances or people. Instead, we've chosen to align ourselves with aspects of the global community (the Green sphere, neutrality, and Conservatism) irrespective of which other alliances choose to tout (or not tout) these same aspects.

Therefore, we have amended our charter to take our valuation of these aspects a step further. We now reserve the right to combat any unjust attacks on neutrality, the green sphere and/or conservatism. We contend that if someone attacks another alliance simply because they are on Green, or because they are neutral, or because they are Conservative - they could just as easily attack the GOP for the same reason(s). Therefore, we reserve the right to see such attacks as direct attacks on our way of life and, if we so choose, retaliate.[/quote]
This protection agreement does not mandate military assistance from GOP to VE during a normal political conflict. GOP could make such a choice, but it offers other services VE considers worth protecting (economic partnership, assistance with rogues, maybe just being a diverse part of the CN community). Plus they are long-time friends. A lot of [s]treaties[/s] agreements :P are more than just politics.

RIP UJA, I always liked your logo. Good on VE for not leaving GOP hang out there.

You accuse Donkey Kong of plagiarism? [img]http://i6.ifrm.com/13681/27/emo/dkthump2.gif[/img]

Much appreciate you taking that on - and so eloquently :)

You also just reminded me that I forgot to reference our dealings with rogues in the VE/GOP protection agreement *head slap*

Are there any color unity blocs left anymore? I remember LEO and NOIR died a few years back, is this the last of them?
[/quote]
Orange, Maroon, Purple, Blue and Red teams still have color unity blocs if the wiki is to be believed.

I can't vouch for their activity but they still exist.
