I'm very pleased to see this treaty signed. GR is a great alliance and it is an honor to call you allies. Here´s to new ties and bonds of friendship!

Now, this is ironic, isn't it?

That's good to see. Congrats to our friends at GATO!

Congrats to our good friends and allies!

Yes, ODN is the other.

Nice! Congrats everyone

Believe me, ODN is as real as it gets.

This may sound odd, given the nature of our new frozen allies, but this treaty spread warmth all over my body. I'm glad this finally happened.

Reading your post I get the feeling that ODN is not the only place where logic has no place.

At some point this was not a treaty we had between Legion and ODN. I was true brotherhood, true friendship. It was like we were one alliance. Perhaps only Polaris and Pacifica had ever been so close as we were. It was hard and painful to watch the friendship and the broterhood that existed slowly fading away... and now we come to this. I wish the Legion all the best in the future. Good luck, old friends. o/ Orrple

o/ XXX I expect great things from you guys. Don't let me down, or I will come back to the government next term....

I am very pleased to have my signature on this treaty for I'm sure this a first step for greater things. o/ Democracies o/ Orange Chocolate Cakes

Glad to see this! o/ MOAR FRIENDS

I agree with this man.

I feel there is a good chance of GGA surprising you. Ancient alliances die hard.

Congrats on peace guys!

Glad to see this. Nicely done, GGA.

I agree with the OP that ultimately the decision to disband a alliance must come from inside the said alliance and no outside force can make it happen. But, unlike many others I think that an outside force can be the decisive factor that led to the disbandment. I dislike when people bring up FAN, Vox and other alliances into this kind of discussion, because I think it is a bit unfair. [ooc] It is like picking an ordinary soccer team squad, showing them a video from Brazil's national team on 1970 World Cup and saying, "they could play like that so you must play like that too"[/ooc]. FAN et al are exceptions, not the rule. You can't expect every alliance to show the degree of stubbornness, endurance and pride they showed when facing their "eternal" wars. They were/are special alliances, and they are respected exactly for that. That being said, I believe we can at least partially blame some external power for forcing an alliance disbandment. External powers can create conditions that would torn the fabric of 90% of the alliances out there and lead to their disbandment. The problem with \m/ and [m], as I see it, is that those conditions were not even created. They started a war, they saw that they were going to get their butts kicked and they fell apart, without even trying to survive. If they have fought a few months (that we can and must expect from every alliance out there), were completely torn apart and were still receiving the same peace terms from their enemies and then have decided to disband, I could agree that some outsider played a major role on their disbandment. Since that was not the case, I cannot see any possible way to blame Sponge (besides of course him outplaying them in every field of this game) or anyone else for the said alliances' disbandment.

Good luck, my friends.

Thank you for the apology and as far as I'm concerned it is accepted and it is much appreciated. Regarding IRON, I disagree. Say what you say, we were in the war against GOONS together, they should have approached us about this before peacing out and recognizing you as a different alliance. They completely ignored our opinion on the matter, and that was the whole problem on our part.

That is very good to see. Congrats everyone. o/ Orrple

Agreed, it was a pleasure crossing swords with you. And green glow is the best kind of glow to bathe, or so they say here in The Frozen North.

o/ Peace It was an honor fighting against you ladies and gentlemen. Good luck rebuilding and stay classy!

Wow. Epic indeed. Good luck, OBR.

o/ Peace
