The Treaty of Koenigsberg & The Wilhelm Doctrine
Signed in 1947 the Treaty of Koenigsberg is an agreement between the Nationalist Republic of Germany and the Kaiserreich of Greater-Prussia. Aside from limiting Germany's military strength and setting up the rigid command structure of the current military; the Treaty set forth the Wilhelm Doctrine.
The Wilhelm Doctrine: A declaration by Kaiser Wilhelm Hohenzollern III of Prussia and is a continuous declaration of war by the Nationalist Republic of Germany and the Kaiserreich of Greater-Prussia against all nations of the world which practice National Socialism within their borders. Such nations should consider themselves warned that if their ways are not changed than the appearance of a Prusso-German Battlefleet should be expected.
