During the [[South Nysdra War]], [[Urcea]] eventually intervened on behalf of the "Legitimist" faction of Telucti Cheveyo, who emerged as King [[Telucti I]] of [[Quetzenkel]] following his victory. The War had been ongoing for nearly two years and issues related to the status of [[Veltorine people]] prompted Urcea's intervention. The new King of Quetzenkel and the [[Government of Urcea]] sought to formalize their alliance forged during the conflict, and negotiations began on the Nysdra Sea Treaty. The initial aim behind the treaty was to establish a formal diplomatic system for relations between states in northwestern Crona, and to additionally create a favorable economic climate for the development of industry and self-reliance in the northwestern part of [[Crona]]. Urcea and Quetzenkel, along with Urcea's union partner [[New Harren]], formally agreed to the treaty on 5 November 2016. The Treaty provided for a "participating observer" status for [[Corumm]]'s [[Xisheng]] territory, requiring the treaty members to protect it in exchange for that territory respecting some of the economic prohibitions called for under the treaty; Corumm signed in late November 2016.

In 2025, the Association voted unanimously to amend the treaty requiring that all full members of the Association must hold a "free and fair" democratic election at least once per decade. According to the terms of the treaty, elections will be observed by inspectors from [[Urcea]] as well as from [[Stenza]]. In [[2028]], the newly organized state of [[New Veltorina]] was admitted to the Association. The Protocols Act was [[Protocols_Act_of_2023#Repeal|repealed]] in 2030, a move interpreted by many analysts to signal Urcea's intent to let the region develop organically.

The Nysdra Sea Treaty provides for "participating observers", nations and territories which are a party to the collective defense provisions under the treaty but are not obliged to participate in collective defense. This was written to provide that [[Urcea]] and its allies would be partly  responsible for the protection of [[Shenendehowa Bay]] and, to a lesser extent, [[Xisheng]], while [[Caphiria]] and [[Corumm]] would not be drawn into a war to protect Urcea's allies in the region. The participating observer status obligates its signatories to take part in the economic and trade restrictions established by the treaty. Participating observers are allowed to import goods from specific non-signatory members - namely Caphiria and Corumm - but provides that purchases of these goods can only be fulfilled and delivered to the signatory party. This functionally means that Caphirian and Corummese firms can do business in the Nysdra region but primarily through intermediaries in Shenendehowa Bay and Xisheng, respectively.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Order of the North Star is a meritorious order created for recognition of military service to NSTA during the [[Final War of the Deluge]]. The Order has become readily identified with NSTA, so much so that the star of the order was incorporated onto NSTA's flag in [[2026]].
