The Unification of Theydim Treaty

"We are no longer Felkhath, Feroian, we are Thydian."

— High King Magnus the Red-Eyed

This treaty outlines the roles and responsibilities of Arling to themselves and each other while defining the role of the Thydian government. It is an early form of an agreement for a government layout or constitution.
This treaty was ratified at the end of the Thydian Unification Wars.

---

Unification:

• If no heir of the High King is crowned within six years, two Cycles, of the High King's death, Theydim will dissolve into independent Arlings.
• Should an Arling leave, the arling will be considered an International Power, and treated as one.
• Should an Arling leave, that Arling will have their military forces returned to their territory, and will lose all Thydian protection should a conflict with Theydim and the Arlings within occur.

---

Trade:

• Trade between International Powers and individual Arlings will be taxed more than Inter-Arling trade within Theydim.
  • Taxes generated from trade between International Powers and individual Arlings will be allocated towards supporting insufficient infrastructure development.

"These taxes are insane - how are we to blame for the smaller Arlings being unable to maintain themselves? They're the ones who split from their original Arling. They should stand on their own, or become part of another Arling. No, they want us to pay for the costs of others when we already paid ours!"

Military:

• Individual Arling militaries will be restructured and rearranged into the Thydian Military.
• Local militias and Guards will be restructered and rearranged into the Thydian City Guards and militias
• The Thydian Military will be used to defend Theydim and Arlings within Theydim from external forces.

"I disagree with him on a number of things, but he's working to unify Theydim as a whole. In the Great War, the mix troops led to me meeting people I'd not have met otherwise. I'm not sure how I feel about him insisting that we have local and non-local Guards. I understand the newcomers would come in with their perspectives and by not already having ties to the community, they'd be more likely to spot local corruption, but they're just as likely to be corrupted because they don't have a stake, really, in the cities and towns."
"Me? Oh, I'm sorry, but I still consider myself a Northsear. I've at least managed to stop doing so when dealing with diplomats though."

— Arle Stormwatch

Inter-Arling Conflict:

• Conflicts between Arlings will be resolved in the High King's Court, without the Arlings going to war with each other.
  • Based on the severity of the conflicts, there are tiers of the Inter-Arling Courts to address it.
  • Theydim will have laws all Arlings will incorporate into their own laws, Arlings will maintain control over how to sentence violations of the laws.

"'Paying societal debt'? Please, no amount of labor will bring back a murderer's victims."
"The treaty didn't outlaw executions, you know."
