Overview

The Pact of Commitment (Aerah-Gezwut: Pakt der Verpflichtung), known formally as the Pact of Friendship and Alliance between Aerah and Khavet, was a military and political alliance between the Khavet Union and the Aerah Empire.

The pact was initially drafted to make an alliance with Nottebohm, though it was refused by Nottebohm personally. Aerahwut Chancellor, Oehlenschlger took advantage and within a series of secret discussions they came up with the idea to kill Nottebohm. Oehlenschlger gave the Khavetii the location of where Nottebohm was at and gave them the map and entrances to Fort Ashspell. After this operation, Bernhardt Nottebohm was announced dead. The following day on June 13th, Oehlenschlger signed the Alliance papers for he was now Grand Commander of Aerah.

The pact consisted of two parts. The first section was an open declaration of continuing trust and cooperation between Aerah and Khavet while the second, a trade agreement, encouraged a union of policies concerning the military and economy.

Khavetii President signified the treaty to work only for Aerah as a whole; not separated. In 1942 The Democratic Republic of the Khavetii restarted the pact and had commissioned Oehlenschlger to correct the division no matter what; or the Khavetii will get involved.

Clauses

Officially, the Pact of Commitment obliged Aerah and Khavet to aid the other country militarily, economically or otherwise in the event of war, and to collaborate in wartime production. The Pact aimed to ensure that neither country was able to make peace without the agreement of the other.

Article I

The Contracting Parties will remain in permanent contact with each other in order to come to an understanding of all common interests.

Article II

In the event that the common interests of the Contracting Parties be jeopardized through international happenings of any kind, they will immediately enter into consultation regarding the necessary measures to preserve these interests. Should the security or other vital interests of one of the Contracting Parties be threatened from outside, the other Contracting Party will afford the threatened Party its full political and diplomatic support in order to remove this threat.

Article III

If it should happen, against the wishes and hopes of the Contracting Parties, that one of them becomes involved in military complications with another power or other Powers, the other Contracting Party will immediately step to its side as an ally and will support it to the fullest possible extent of its military might on land, at sea and in the air.

Article IV

In order to ensure, in any given case, the rapid implementation of the alliance obligations of Article III, the Governments of the two Contracting Parties will further intensify their cooperation in the military sphere and the sphere of war economy. Similarly, the two Governments will keep each other regularly informed of other measures necessary for the practical implementation of this Pact. The two Governments will create standing commissions, under the direction of the Foreign Ministers, for the purposes indicated in Article I and II.

Article V

The Contracting Parties already at this point bind themselves, in the event of a jointly waged war, to conclude any armistice or peace only in full agreement with each other.

Article VI

The two Contracting Parties are aware of the importance of their joint relations to the Powers which are friendly to them. They are determined to maintain these relations in future and to promote the adequate development of the common interests which bind them to these Powers.
