Code of Conduct
I) Commitment to have sixty percent (60%) of the alliance's nations on Purple within thirty (30) days of membership. II) Prohibition against “raid*” style warfare against any Purple Sphere nation. III) Mutual cooperation in Senate matters. IV) Economic participation on P.E.A.C.E forums, specifically trades and tech programs.

Member alliances shall work for the economic benefit of all signatories and Pegasus members. To facilitate this goal, the member alliances shall participate in a central system (known as P.E.A.C.E forums) to establish trades and technology deals.

Article II: Non-Aggression and Friendship
Member alliances shall not take unprovoked aggressive actions, military or otherwise, against other member alliances or Pegasus members. The signatories agree to treat each other and members of Pegasus with respect and courtesy in all public and private channels of communications, and will refrain from public comments that are harmful or hostile toward the unity and strength of the constituent alliances. As such, the signatories will deal with any and all differences through private communications.

Article III: Senators
Member alliances recognize the need to work cooperatively in matters regarding the Purple Senate to ensure the interests of all signatories and Pegasus members. As such, any member alliance with fifty (50) purple members, or more, is eligible for Purple Senate seat rotation.

Article IV: Defense
Any military action or espionage against any of the signatories or any member of Pegasus is an attack on all of the signatories of this agreement, and will be dealt with as such. Military actions taken because of other treaty obligations, aside from Pegasus, or attacks resulting from the aggressive military action of a member alliance shall be dealt with as an aggressive action for the purposes of this agreement.

Article V: Aggressive Action
In the event that a member alliance takes aggressive military action against another party, the other signatories may provide assistance as deemed necessary, including direct military aid.

Article VI: Espionage
Member alliances recognize that espionage against other sovereign alliances in time of peace is neither honorable nor desirable; it is an act of war and should be treated as such.

Article VII: Membership
Other alliances may become signatories to this treaty by unanimous consent of the current member alliances. Prospective members must also agree to, and abide by, the above code of conduct.

Article VIII: Sovereignty
All member alliances are sovereign entities, and no member shall interfere with the internal affairs of the other signatories.

Article IX: Modification
The terms of this agreement may be modified by the two-thirds (2/3) consent of the member alliances.

Article X: Consent
If an alliance's consent is required for action, it shall only be accepted from the alliance’s recognized leader, or their duly appointed representative. In times of unexpected emergency, the next highest ranking government member available shall be considered the alliance’s representative.

Article XI: Withdrawal
Member alliances are free to withdraw from the agreement at any time, provided they have given one-hundred and twenty (120) hours written notice to all other member alliances, or immediately through the mutual consent of all members.

Article XII: Expulsion
Any violation of Articles II, IV, or VI of this agreement shall give the non-violating signatories cause to expel the violating member from this agreement immediately.

Expulsion shall require the vote of all of the non-violating members. Evidence of the violation(s) shall be presented to the signatory alliances' leaders (or other representative as defined in Article XI) and the violating member will, in a timely manner, be able to present its own case. Member alliances shall have no less than twenty-four (24) hours to vote from the time the evidence is first presented. In the event of a grave emergency, this time period may be shorted through the mutual consent of all non-violating members.

&#42; Raid refers to wars started primarily for the purpose of statistical gain or boredom. This does not limit signatories to defensive actions or carrying out punishments as these are sovereign actions.
