The Edits of War for the Ottoman Armed Forces

The Ottoman Government has passed a code of laws that deals with handling wars (Like POWs, Etc.).

Edits of War

1. Only fight the foes' fighting troops and do not fight the non-fighting personnel.

2. Do not burn or destroy land (pillaging) and do not kill local people (women, children, and elders) who are not fighting you.

3. Do not slay farm animals (like Cows, Sheep, Chicken and Goats) unless it’s for food.

4. Raping is not permitted. If one is found breaking this law, the Flag Officer is ordered to kill the solider for breaking the Edits of War.

5. Mass killing of any kind is forbidden. If any type of mass killing is done by Ottoman troops, those involved will be put on trial for their crimes against mankind.

6. The torture of POWs is forbidden.

7. POWs must not be treated lowly (like crap). They must be given some respect.

8. POWs' need of bases, food, water, and others will not be withheld.

9. Any form of racism against POWs is forbidden. All POWs will be treated equally.

10. All Ottoman Troops are ordered to follow these Edits at all costs. Anyone found breaking the laws of war will be put on trial. If it is found that this has happened, the lawbreaker will beheaded publicly.

Samtonia applauds this conduct. It is nice to see some countries behaving civilly in these troubled times.

Now, we would like to make one suggestion. Draw it up into a charter. Of course, we would be happy to do that for you, free of charge, in the interests of another nation who follows the Geneva conventions.

Well...very few people if any follow the Geneva Conventions.I don't want you to waste your time trying to write a chater for this.I only wrote this,because I'll be going to war like in three weeks.So I thought some rules of war should be needed for my army.
