After the aftermath of this war, and given that we had both been impressed with each other quite a bit over that time, it made sense to update the treaty to more accurately reflect the relationship.

Just look at OBR, the Writ De Credo was a masterpiece, through graceful and convoluted language they were able to create a treaty that in essence prohibited all the signatories from attacking it, yet leaving a loophole by which they could all them. Very well written. But anyways, congrats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
