Thank you for your input, however I think you are wrong, therefore you are wrong. PNG'd.

Treaty of Skandia
WE, the Realm of Balder and the New Pacific Order, hereafter jointly referred to as “the signatories”,
RECOGNISING our shared identity as Game-Created Regions, and our devotion to the principles of Regional Sovereignty, as exemplified by our shared founding of the former GCR Sovereignty Accords;
DESIRING to revive the historic partnership between our Regions, in a modern bilateral relationship, in the pursuit of shared objectives and the mutual advancement of our welfare,
THEREFORE, agree to recognise and adhere to the Treaty and all of the commitments set forth therein:
Section I - Mutual recognition
1. The signatories recognize one another as the sole, legitimate, and sovereign governments of their respective NationStates regions.
2. Both signatories recognize each other as independent sovereign entities.
Section II - Diplomatic Relations
1. The signatories agree to ensure continuing diplomatic relations with each other.
2. The signatories shall maintain in-game embassies (i.e., on the NationStates site) and off-site embassies (i.e., on their regional forums) with one another.
3. The signatories will endeavour to keep the other informed on their regional and diplomatic affairs.
Section III - Mutual Defense & Military Cooperation
1. The signatories agree not to engage in any military hostilities against one another. Participation by the signatories on opposite sides of a military engagement that does not constitute an attack on either signatory’s home region shall not be considered "military hostilities against one another" for this purpose.
2. The signatories will not attempt to overthrow each other or give any form of support to any parties, foreign or domestic, in an attempt to overthrow the legitimate recognized government of the other in their home region.
3. The signatories shall provide one another defensive military assistance in case of a military attack, either internal or external, targeting the other signatory’s home region, to the best of their ability.
4. Mutual aggression between a treaty ally of one signatory and the other signatory may be respected by opting for neutrality.
5. Should a third party attempt to overthrow either signatory, the defense of said signatory will be made priority by the other party, including a re-evaluation of neutrality due to pre-existing treaties should an existing treaty ally be involved in the hostilities.
6. The signatories will provide one another military assistance for delegacy transitions, at the request of the other signatory.
7. The signatories may collaborate militarily for the combined benefit of both regions when a mutually beneficial situation arises, such as halting a proposal strongly opposed by both parties from reaching quorum in the World Assembly.
Section IV - Intelligence Sharing
1. The signatories shall provide to their counterpart's Delegate any intelligence related to the other signatory's in-game or off-site security, unless the signatory in possession of such intelligence reasonably believes that doing so would violate applicable laws, or violate the terms of service for NationStates or said signatory's forum provider, or unduly compromise said signatory's sources of information.
2. The signatories will keep confidential all intelligence provided to them under this Section, unless the other signatory consents to the release.
3. The signatories will not in any way, direct or indirect, initiate or participate in espionage, subterfuge, or other clandestine operations against one another. For this purpose, a "clandestine operation" is one or more persons acting under false pretenses in one signatory’s home region, regional forum or Discord, without that signatory's knowledge, and at the direction of the other signatory.
Section V - Termination of Treaty
1. A party that has decided to terminate the treaty must notify the Delegate or next appropriate government official in the absence of the Delegate of their decision.
2. There will be a five-day period after the other party has been notified of this decision before the treaty cancellation is considered final. Should both parties agree to cancel the treaty, the termination of the treaty will be immediate.
3. Termination of this treaty shall not be seen as an act of war or hostility by either side.

The Treaty of Skandia
Following on from the announcement of the Treaty of Skandia by the The New Pacific Order, we are pleased to confirm that negotiations on the treaty are indeed complete, and the Realm of Balder is looking to pass the treaty into law shortly. The treaty has today been introduced into the Storting and we look forward to its successful passage, and to a new chapter in our relationship with the New Pacific Order.
The text of the treaty is also reproduced here:Treaty of Skandia

When Osiris approached Balder in May 2020, we took their approach in good faith and responded honestly. Osiris agreed to the terms we presented without seeking to dispute them and then failed to engage. Since we pursued the issue with Dakota as Pharaoh, she has continued the pattern of stalling and seeking to avoid engaging with the substance. Rather than engaging honestly with me, Delegate to Delegate, Dakota has elected to conduct sham votes on PNGs, which are irrelevant to the central issue at hand, as a justification for not honouring the terms to which Osiris agreed. The Realm of Balder is accordingly declaring Dakota to be Persona Non Grata. We will thus put in place a standing order for the Jomsvikings and all other branches of Balder’s government not to work in any capacity with Osiris or The Black Hawks while Dakota continues to hold leadership positions in them. Whilst Osiris is not prepared to publicly retract the false claim that Balder has ever been controlled by the LKE, Balder will apply the logic of Osiris to The Black Hawks so long as the foreign affairs of both TBH and Osiris are subordinated to Dakota.

Yeah maybe could have bolded that bit. The last paragraph is certainly the operative one. I just thought people should know the Balder Crown can post serious statements, not just fish puns...

I don't see any serious statements here. It's more like Balder shooting itself in the foot when it really didn't need to/shouldn't have. Looks like we'll be calling the Balder Crown the Balder Clown from now on
