Lawful denizens of the Omegas. Today, we have made a resounding accomplishment towards the stability of Omega 7. Long fraught with turmoil over resource fields and territorial rights, the system was torn apart by the conflicts between the Independent Miners' Guild and Daumann Heavy Construction. Thanks to recent high level talks between the belligerents, a representative from the Rheinland Military, and myself representing the Colonial Republic, peace is finally within reach. With the signing of the following treaty, I hope that Omega 7 may finally settle down to a status of profit, peace, and most of all, prosperity.

The Treaty is as follows:

Treaty of Omega 7 Wrote:Article 1
Treaty parties

This treaty is signed between Independent Miners Gild, Daumann Heavy Construction and Colonial Republic.
Each party is to maintain a defensive force in the area.

Article 2
Area delimitation

To prevent any violent happenings in Omega-7 regarding mining, the territory is split into following parts, using trade-lanes in the system as demarkation line („DL“) which neither party can cross except for Article 3.
Ships of the IMG are to mine north of the DL.
DHC ships are to mine south of the DL.
Patrols will be limited to mining fields and bases which the party has ownership of and neither party can approach as close as 10k to other parties base, if not covered by Article 3 of this treaty.

Article 3
Border crossing exceptions

Article 2 can be set aside in case of escorting trade vessels, and assisting vessel's threatened by piracy.
Should vesel of either party break the DL in order to mine in other party territory, party owning the said part of the mining fields can pursue the ship beyond the DL in order to recover the goods.

Article 4
Hiring help

Neither party can hire any sort of mercenaries to hit on any party of this agreement. Breaking of this Article will void entire Treaty effective immidiately.

Article 5
Role of the Colonial Republic

Colonials are to preserve peace in the syst?m and enforce the treaty. They are therefore obliged to assist either party against pirate threats, help to intercept vessels breaking DL and patrol entire area without being in any way limited by the DL.
Unless any craft is commiting unlawful act in the syst?m, Colonial vessels will not engage it.

Article 6
Rheinland Law

All parties acknowledge not to break current laws of Rheinland.


Article 7
Treaty breakages

Should either IMG or Daumann break any of the articles regarding mining fields, patrol areas or hiring outsider help, other party is obliged to first make contact on diplomatic channels. Repercussions may but are not limited to : monetary fine, voiding treaty.

Thank you for voicing your concerns, Captain Rocksplitter. However, you don't know what you're on about, and if you threaten the stability of Omega 7, we will be forced to take action. That entire clause is about us enforcing the rules, because without someone to act as an enforcer, there's a chance that fools like you won't follow them. As you saw, we only instruct if it is relevant to the situation. Like if you're shooting down IMG pilots, or "IMG Sympathizers," we'll instruct both sides to blacklist you like you deserve.

We may have bias, but it is insignificant. We owe our livelihood to Rheinland, we're not going to mess it up, no matter what a fool like you says. After all, you have demonstrated that you both don't know what you're talking about, and have no intention of supporting the peace.

Daumann reviewed all sides of the treaty in the high-level talks. Again, another example of you not knowing what you're on about. Surely you trust your leader to know what's best?

Signed,
Secretary Politus Aquila
