TREATY OF PORT SAINT ANDRE
Considering the great and long lived friendship between the peoples of Gralus and Natopia; and hoping to extend that friendship in the future, we agree to the following:
1. That full recognition shall be extended to the other party of the treaty as a sovereign micronation; including over their websites, forums and MCS land; and claims of annexation by any third party shall be refuted unless it can be proved beyond reasonable doubt that the other party agrees to the annexation.
2. That each party has the right to appoint an ambassador to the other party, and each party is allowed to demand immediate removal of the ambassador at any time since arrival and with only a week's notice.
3. That full diplomatic immunity is extended to the Triumvirate of Gralus - Emperor, Lord General and Chief Justice; and to the Lord General's appointed Ambassador and to their accompanying retinue; and likewise full diplomatic immunity is extended to the Emperor of Natopia; the Minister for Foreign Affairs; and to his appointed Ambassador and their accompanying retinue. These diplomatic immunities shall extend to all future rulers of both nations and their respective delegates and ministers.
4. That both parties agree to not interfere in the domestic policies of the other party save for noting concerns raised via a note from the Ambassador.
5. That both parties agree to resolve any mutual disputes in a peaceful manner, with or without the arbitration of a neutral third party.
