Treaty of Veneto

Treaty of Veneto, 1469-1519

To superscede the Treaty of Paris; Any member signing on to the Treaty of Veneto is bound to the new treaty, prior to being bound to the Treaty of Paris.

To ensure an equitable balance of power, and bring peace in our time to the war torn lands of Italy, the powers of France, Castille, Austria, and Venice, together with His Holiness the pope, do enact the following upon ratification by these five powers. Any signee is bound at the moment of signing the treaty, and is bound not only to the other signees, but to God, to uphold the letter of the Treaty in regards to other signees. Any of the five countries that does not sign to the treaty shall not be considered to hold her rightful provinces, and will be considered outside the rule of law and the Treaty of Veneto.

1. We declare the following division of provinces into spheres of influence, only applicable to the explicitly named provinces:

Mantua, Firenze, Veneto, and Emilia are considered Venetian interests, and Venice can do with them what she pleases.

Savoy, Piedmonte, Genoa and Corsica are considered French interests, and France can do with them what she pleases.

Sardegna, Sicily, Apulia, Messena, and Malta are considered Castillean/Spanish interests, and Castille/Spain can do with them what she pleases.

Lombardia is considered an Austrian interest, and Austria can do with it what she pleases.

Marche, Romagna, Roma, and Napoli are considered Papal interests, and the Papacy can do with them what she pleases.

Siena is to remain free. In the event of its conquest, the offending party must set her free as a vassal, OR pay 100 ducats to each signee of the treaty. The option is at the discretion of the holder of Siena. If money is paid out to each signee, Siena officially is recognized as being in the interests of the conquering country, and said country can do with her what she pleases.

Istria is considered to be the only European Italian province not under the jurisdiction of the renewed treaty.

The treaty is for 50 years for each signing, and each country will be up for renewal 50 years after their last signing.

2. Any province gained by a signee that is the interest of another signee is to be immediately handed over to its proper owner, free of charge. In the event of an outside power claiming one of said provinces, all powers who sign to the Treaty agree to support the proper owner of the province diplomatically, and preferably will also support the rightful owner militarily or economically. Supporting an outside power in these provinces will be taken as a breaking of the treaty.

If either nation inadvertently finds itself in possesion of a territory recognised as belonging to the other nation, it must offer to release it as a vassal (if possible), or sell it to the rightful owner. This is to be at a flat rate of 200 Ducats per province. The rightful owner must purchase the territory, allow it to be vassalised, or give up it's CB on the territory. The rightful owner could also offer some other arangement, at the controlling nations' option.

This includes all CB shields for the Ottomans - with the exception of Podolia, Jedistan, and Carpathia. For the Polish, all Polish CB shields, as well as the current territories of Lithuania are recognised as being a Polish domain. Additionally, so is Carpathia, offered in goodwill as a buffer zone.
