| | |
| The League of Nations (LoN), informally known as the "Allied", was a social and military alliance of most of the big names or well known crews on PirateCraft. It was founded in spring 2015 during the great war against the [[0utlaws]].
| |
| | |
| Most of the self-declared "[[empires]]" on the server as well as crews with a nation theme found a place in LoN. Its aim was establish order amongst the great civilisations of Piratecraft and coordinate against pirate threats. Through cooperation, great threats such as [[0utlaws]], the [[Hawatis]] or the first incarnation of [[Crusaders of the Void]] (CoV) were fended off or even toppled from their hegemonic positions.
| |
| | |
| The league also helped to prevent internal conflict, uprisings and animosity between the crews. Since the destruction of [[Evermoor]], no great settlement was ever destroyed in war. Through the protection provided by their allies, the crews of LoN were free to pursue great feats of construction and engineering.
| |
| | |
| For over a year LoN remained the biggest and most powerful alliance on the server, rivalled only by the [[Federation Nations Alliance]]. The [[Verussian Empire]] was ousted at the end of spring 2015 after a plot was uncovered aiming to undermine their allies. LoN provided coordinated and active resistance against the [[0utlaws]] until [[HardTimez]] was banned. In autumn 2015 [[CoV]] became the most active PvP crew on the server, yet to begin with LoN did not have to deal with many acts of aggression. Smaller wars, such as the war on the [[Verussian continent]] or skirmishes against various smaller crews took priority. In spring 2016, CoV began to swell further in size. PvPers of at least decent capability flocked to their ranks in order to make the most of the limited competition on the server. Raids were conducted against various LoN members. For a long time no action was taken against this aggression - the capabilities of CoV seemed overwhelming. In May 2016, the [[Elven]] leader, [[Reptaria]], declared that he would be actively hunting CoV members in retaliation. Combined action was taken by [[Elven Empire]], the [[British Empire]] and a new PvP crew called [[Solis]] with the rest of LoN soon to follow. The sheer number of players suddenly taking up arms against CoV proved no easy challenge, igniting discord with their ranks. A rift developed between old and new crew members. Within a week, the seemingly impenetrable crew had broken up.
| |
| | |
| Following the fall of CoV, LoN no longer faced any serious competition on the server. Players from all crews waited tentatively to see which LoN crew would break rank to take CoV's crown as the leading PvP crew on PirateCraft. This scenario didn't set in. Solis disbanded while LoN remained steadfast. New crews such as [[The Asylum]] or [[Templar]] rose from the ashes of CoV and Solis.
| |
| | |
| Templar maintained friendly relations with LoN and was considered an applicant member. This would ultimately prove LoN's undoing. In a surprise move, Templar declared war against BE. In response, BE called upon LoN for support in the war against Templar. Due to LoN's friendly relation with Templar, however, only EE and [[13C]] provided assistance. The other LoN crews wanted to remain neutral.
| |
| | |
| Many citizens of BE were shocked that their allies were refusing to aid them after BE had provided aid in all past conflicts concerning their fellow LoN members. This lead to a general referendum in which it was proposed BE should leave LoN and pursue closer relations with more dependable crews. The referendum, known as [[BExit]] passed with over three quarters of voters in favour. The resignation of the biggest crew in LoN lead to EE and 13C immediately following suit, leaving only the [[Xanthian Empire]], [[Luteus Republic]] and [[Iborian Empire]]. These three mini crews decided to merge into one and become [[the Xanthian Order]]. Though EE ultimately changed its mind and decided to stay in LoN with TXO, the former great alliance slipped into inactivity.
| |
| | |
| In December 2016, the BE revealed the [[Commonwealth of Nations]] to the public. This union would server as a spiritual successor to LoN with more detailed guidelines to prevent internal conflict. All the old members of LoN as well as the reformed Templars agreed to enter this new alliance.

| '''Introduction'''
| |
| | |
| In a time of war, the Empires of PirateCraft came together to forge a grand alliance. Its purpose: To prevent bloodshed on a global scale and to thwart the rise of new pirate warlords. This league of nations chose to name themselves "the Allied" and are active to this day.
| |
| | |
| The current Allied member states encompass:
| |
| | |
| | |
| The British Empire (left October 2nd, 2016)
| |
| | |
| The Iborian Empire (Disbanded September, 2016)
| |
| | |
| The Luteus Republic
| |
| | |
| The Thirteen Colonies (left October 2nd, 2016)
| |
| | |

| | |
| '''Article I - Membership'''
| |
| | |
| *To become a member of the Allied a nation must be unilaterally accepted by all Allied member states. Allied nations are encouraged to join the Allied forum group for the purpose of communication and coordination. The leaders of the Allied nations are granted admin status. All second in commands are granted mod status. No player who is not a member of the Allied will be allowed into the forum group.
| |
| | |
| *Players that are on a KOS list of one or several of the Allied nations will not be permitted to join any Allied nation unless all Allied nations with the player on their KOS list unilaterally grant their permission. Players who have a dubious past or a history of conflict with Allied nations must be specially evaluated by all the Allied nations before they may join.
| |
| | |
| *A nation may choose to leave the Allied any time they choose without fear of reprisal, under the condition that it has neither debts to repay nor committed any crimes against the Allied.
| |
| | |
| *A nation may be expelled from the Allied if all the other member nations are in favour of expulsion. If multiple nations wish for each other to be expelled, they must refer to Article IV.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| '''Article II - War'''
| |
| | |
| *Allied nations shall under no circumstances declare war against each other. Committing a crime against an Allied player of a different nation shall be treated and dealt with as a crime committed against one's own nation.
| |
| | |
| *Should an Allied nation get involved in a conflict with another nation, its fellows are encouraged but not obliged to assist the belligerent nation however they see fit.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| '''Article III - Intelligence'''
| |
| | |
| *The Allied nations are strongly encouraged to share any information that may be of importance to its fellows. No Allied nation will share vital information with any foreign nation nor will private information be made public without the unilateral agreement of all Allied nations.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| '''Article IV - Conflicts and Justice'''
| |
| | |
| *Any player that commits transgressions against the Allied shall be expelled from their respective crew and/or punished unless otherwise negotiated. Failure by an Allied nation to fulfill compensation agreements for damages committed against a fellow Allied nation may be counted as a violation of the Charter during the time where the damage is relevant.
| |
| | |
| *An Allied nation may in principal only be expelled if all the member states are unilaterally in favour of expulsion. Exceptions may occur in the following situations:
| |
| | |
| *An Allied nation that violates the Charter may be brought to justice. The appropriate punishment will be negotiated between the relevant parties. If a guilty nation refuses to comply, the protection of this Charter shall no longer apply to them and they may become a military target. They may also be expelled through a simple majority vote.
| |
| | |
| *If Allied nations are at variance with each other, their conflicts must be aired on the forums. A nation that refuses to comply with this regulation may be expelled through a simple majority vote.
| |
| | |
| *If multiple Allied nations wish to expel each other, a vote must be held to decide the member status of each involved nation. A simple majority is required to expel a nation in this case. The cantankerous nations shall only be expelled after all the votes have been evaluated.
| |
| | |
| *An Allied nation may not be brought to trial for a crime committed that is no longer relevant or was solved at the time.
| |
| | |
| | |
| '''Article V - Amendments'''
| |
| | |
| Amendments may be made to the charter if all Allied nations vote unilaterally in favour.
