The GEDRA (Galactic Exploratory, Defense and Research Alliance) has been around for abit now...

And it is time likely for the addition of new members to this alliance.

The Alliance Treaty is as follows


Galactic Exploration, Defense, and Research Alliance (GEDRA)

The purpose of the GEDRA is to provide a cooperative effort between advanced space-faring cultures, in the pursuit of galactic, and general space related exploration, mapping, defense, and general research into spatial phenomena.

The provisions of this alliance are as follows:

1. Members conducting exploratory missions will provide detailed maps and charts of newly discovered
regions of space. In doing this, the overall cost in both men and equipment can be alleviated
through sharing of charts. As such, there will be a cut back on the need of multiple charting
of the same space by different members. However, primacy of colonization, within newly discovered
systems goes to that member world/system which discovered it.
2. Such charts will include the relative mass, density, and composition of all stellar and planetary
bodies in said regions of space, for the benefit of Faster Than Light navigation through these
systems.
3. All newly discovered spatial phenomena by members will be reported to GEDRA, thereby allowing
alliance members the ability to team research efforts into the understanding and impact these
phenomena have. All gleaned research data collected by GEDRA backed research, will be shared by
all member worlds/systems. This is not to construe that any independent research need be shared,
only that which is attained via the GEDRA provisions.
4. No member world/nation may go to war with any other member without first appeal to a meeting of
representatives of all member worlds/systems in the alliance.
5. No member world/system will interfere in the internal affairs or politics of another member
world/system.
6. No member world/system will engage in piracy, or other such means upon other member worlds/systems
or any other space-faring or non space-faring culture.
7. No member world/system will interfere with the development or advancement of any culture that has
not attained interstellar travel.
8. All contests of colonization or defense, between member worlds/systems, will be presented before
a meeting of representatives from all member worlds/systems for deliberation and arbitration.
9. Deliberation by GEDRA will be done by one representative from each member world/system, each
representative will have one vote, and a vote must possess a two-thirds (2/3) majority to pass.
10. Additions or removal of provisions to this alliance will be done by deliberation as outlined under
Article 8, however, a complete majority (100%) and consensus is needed.

IC: Although The Republic of Korthas has never met with the civilization calling itself The Fedral Union, their reputation precedes them and does not increase our desire to join GEDRA if they do.

If there is no contest... And the parties are at peace... It is of no-consequence...

To prevent all-out-war, was the reason of this... Members would have the ability, if claiming the same sector... To have GEDRA arbitrate the matter, as opposed to direct hostilities.
