The Coalition of Ordered Governments [COG]

History

COG was originally signed by LUEshi, GATO, New Sparta, and New Horizon. COG was involved in the GOLD War, African War, the Second Umbrella War, and First World War

Treaty

We the undersigned come together under a united banner of political solidarity, martial power and economic prosperity for the sustenance and improvement of all with which this treaty binds.

We speak with one voice.

We fight with one army.

We build with one economy.

We unite under one banner.

The following articles outline the conduct each signatory must adhere to in the spirit of the aforementioned ideals.

Article I Sovereignty

Each signatory is a free and sovereign country. It has the right to speak, act and govern as each sees fit. COG recognizes the government which signs this treaty.

Article II Rights & Obligations

Each signatory will have one vote in which to use in official COG discussions. All official actions, statements, signatory admissions and motions must be passed with a unanimous majority or the motion will automatically fail. Only with this majority may official matters be announced to external entities.

Article III Defensive Operations

Each signatory has the right to an adequate defense response from external aggressors. Each member will use all available actions and resources to ensure the security of a fellow member. This right is inalienable unless it conforms to the terms outlined in Article VII.

Article IV Offensive Operations

A signatory may propose the use of the COG combined martial forces for a preemptive attack on another entity or entities. This must be put before a vote in which Article II applies. Once initiated, an offensive operation must continue until all signatories agree to cease the operation.

Article V Economic Co-Operation

Each signatory pledges to commit all economic resources to the COG. This does not apply to arbitrary requests for aid or requests that will severely impact the function of a nation. Each signatory will endeavor to trade with other COG signatories.

Article VI Intelligence & Information

Each signatory will divulge any information relevant to the COG as a whole, or pertaining to any individual signatory. A signatory is required to notify the COG of any upcoming developments in said signatory's foreign policy.

Article VII Dismissal of Signatory

If a signatory has acted contrary the the terms and conditions outlined in this treaty, another signatory may propose the removal of the offending signatory. As per Article II, a unanimous vote must be sustained, offensive signatory non-inclusive. If the proposal is passed, then the country with which the proposal has addressed will have it's signature removed and will be pursuant to the terms of Article IX.

Article VIII Good Faith

One document cannot define and encompass all situations and policies which come about in daily operations. As such, each signatory will endeavor to act in "Good Faith" towards each other. Good Faith is defined as acting in the best interests of the common good (ie COG).

Article IX Removal/Retraction of Signatures

If a signatory has been removed or chooses to remove it's signature from this treaty, then it will no longer be of the Coalition with which all the above Articles apply. Once a signature has been removed, the signatory in question will enter a seven-day non-aggression period in which it or the COG will abstain from using military forces upon each other.

Article X Ratification

The following signatures signify the admission of a country to the Coalition of Ordered Governments. This treaty will secede any existing treaty held between any of the signatories.
