The Audonia Community of Security & Economic Cooperation (ACSEC) is an intergovernmental organization formed with the express and overarching purpose of fostering Audonia's economic development through the lowering of tariffs and other obstacles to trade between member states, the fair arbitration of economic disputes and protecting the Audonian economic space from unfair competition from outside players. The organization also has a security dimension to it, with a particular focus on the East Audonian space, promoting military to military cooperation in training, procurement and assessing common threats. The ACSEC holds several common naval drills, holds regular joint patrols of member's adjacent waters and bi-annual army exercises. First proposed by Daxia's Chancellor Prib Dodd in 2026, it was founded at a meeting of heads of state on 3 May 2031 in Ankae. The ACEC Secretariat is located in Heng, Daxia and secondary Secretariat in Hanzeong, Metzetta.

History

The end of the Deluge and the war with Varshan gave impetus to proposals to limit the spread of instability to East Audonian nations by building a security and economic framework that tied member states together and limited conflict. Such a framework had never existed before, nations much preferring to rely on informal bilateral agreements, sometimes with nations with no direct stake in the region. Consultations and meetings of foreign ministers finessing details took place throughout 2026 and 2027, leading up to the inaugural leader's summit in 2031 that was hosted in the city of Ankae, Metzetta. Subsequently four more summits have taken place to discuss the state of the organization and the progress of the various initiatives.
