This bill will replace the curent treaty; it is the old treaty that previously had failed.
Explanation: The second clause of this treaty had been removed from the original treaty because we feared that it would violate our treaty with the Dinarchy. However, it turns out that the Dinarchy, while having Proposition 31, did not actually claim Nafticon; thus, there was no need to remove this clause. Finally, this issue is significan to the Republicans, and they feel that they had gotten the shaft, so I feel that this is necessary to improve relations with them.WHEREAS the two countries of the IMPERIAL REPUBLIC OF SHIREROTH and the REPUBLIC OF ANTICA, having come into contact with one another and and finding their interests to be coincident, do desire to formalize and secure their cordial feelings, they do agree:
FIRST, that each recognize the other as a sovereign and independent country, possessed of all the rights entailed thereby
SECOND, that each recognize the other as the sole legitimate owner of all territory, both physical and imaginary, which they claim
THIRD, that both countries commit to resolve all mutual disputes peacefully, using a neutral third partied agreed to by both should this prove impossible by normal channels
FOURTH, that both countries shall remain open and accessible to tourists and other visitors from one another, barring national emergencies or other such security issues
FIFTH, that proper channels of communication shall be opened between them, so as to facilitate dialogue and future cooperation
Woops, I let this one slip.
