Paix realizes that war is sometimes inevitable,so the following guidelines are being put in place that would make Paix engage in a war, if diplomacy does fail: 1. When war has been declared on us or one of our allies. 2. If one of our members is attacked by a member of another alliance, and all attempts at diplomacy have failed to end the hostilities. 3. In defense of another alliance due to treaty obligations. 4. Spying will be deemed as an act of aggression against our sovereignty. Article 5.01: Tech Raiding Policy Tech raiding is strictly prohibited by Paix members. Article 5.02: Spying Paix views spying as an act of aggression with the intent to inflict damage.

Nuclear weapons can be used in defensive measures and only when at least one member nation has been attacked by a nuclear weapon and upon the unanimous agreement and approval of the entire Paix Government. Article 5.04: Treaty Policies A. The Paix Alliance reserves the right as a sovereign alliance to cancel or change any treaty,at its sole discretion.If Paix changes,or cancels any treaty,Paix will inform our allied alliance of said changes within 48 hours of any changes. B. The Paix Alliance will always uphold any and all treaty agreements with other alliances.
