CSTO (Night of the Living Alternate History Map Game)

The CSTO is the biggest multi-mililtary and political organisation of its type in the world. Dwarfing even NATO in its heydey, it has the power to radically change the geopolitical situation on the planet, whether it being to create a country from a bunch of small city states, to destroy hostile nations to the point of colonisation.

History
The Collective Security Treaty Organization is a military alliance between former some of the former nations of the Warsaw PACT. These nations include the Russian Federation, New Romania, Ukraine, Lithuania, Moldova, Bulgaria, Greece, the Republic of Thrace, and Belarus. When the USSR dissolved in 1986 and the Warsaw PACT officially disbanded. it left many nations in eastern Europe defenseless against the world. On the date of April 7th, 1986 the successor to the Warsaw PACT was created, now called the Collective Security Treaty Organization.

Main Purpose
Primarily, the main purpose of the Collective Security Treaty Organization is for the desire of all participating states to abstain from threats. Even though this may seem as a defensive tactic, the CSTO also can and will conduct offensive containment operations in nations that are controlled by corrupt regimes which endanger the region where our allies are located. In other words the CSTO is mainly a self-defense pact.

Part I - Treatment of Other Nations
Article I - All nations in the Collective Security Treaty Organization and not should be treated with respect.

Article II - No neutral nations outside of the organization should be attacked for an unjustly reason.

Article III - Mobilization of military armed forces of the organization may not move through neutral states unless that state gives its consent for military access. (Falls under both Part I and II).

Part II - Declaration of War and Military Aid/Mobilization
Article I - Faked terrorist attacks to start a war(s) with other nations will result in a kick from the organization if this is found out.

Article II - All nations within the CSTO must help other nations within the organization if they're attacked.

Article III-  When in war, the Geneva Convention must be followed.

Article IV - All nations within the organization are obliged to help allies attack and/or invade enemies of the state.

Part III - Propaganda and Fake/Actual Terrorist Attacks
Article I - Propaganda shall not be used to gain national prestige, gain land, humiliate other nations or be used to declare war on other nations.

Article II - The use of fake terrorist attacks to declare war on another nation will result in a kick from the organization.

Article III - Aiding or funding terrorist organizations will result in an immediate kick from the organization.

Part IV - Weapon Distribution and Production
Article I - Distributing weapons onto the black market, or giving weapons to 3rd world nations for no reason and terrorist organizations will result in an immediate kick from the organization.

Article II - Mass production of a nuclear armament will result in a kick from the organization. However, if your nation already had nuclear weapons before this constitution was made, the demilitarization of them should commence since they’re not needed.

Article III - Production of chemical and biological agents and/or weapons will result in a kick from the organization (That are meant to harm Humans)

Article IV - Stealing designs of weapons, weapon systems, vehicles, or any other sort of military equipment from nations within the organization will result in your nation being kicked out.

Article V - Secretly distributing weapons to ANY state, allied or not without stating this to the alliance will result in an immediate kick from the organization.

Part V - Miscellaneous
Article I - Promotion of illegal substances (in nations that don't allow it) such as marijuana, cocaine, heroin, etc will result in a kick from the organization

Article II - Hiding or aiding terrorists will result in a kick from the organization.

Article III - Promotion of terrorism will result in a kick from the organization.

'''The constitution for the CSTO is still under development. Please ignore any flaws for now.'''

Military
The total military of the CSTO (amount of troops with all nations combined) is around 7,000,000 to 10,000,000 troops; both in active duty and the reserve.

Joining the CSTO
Any nation that wishes to join the CSTO must make an application that will be viewed and approved by the secretary Andrew Pufai of the Republic of Susquehanna or approved/approved again by the nation that is the head of the Security Council/Head State. You must be considered friendly and trusted to the CSTO to at least make an application. If you're invited, there is no need to make an application.

Possible Invitees
United Mediterr. application for observer status sponsored by United Republics. G greg e (talk)


 * Russian Diplomacy: Since you're a vassal to an observer member of our organization we will allow you to join as an observer state.

UR
The United Republics would like to apply for observe status. How might we go about doing this.

'''Well, you already agreed when I invited you, so you're already in. You are only required to make an application if you aren't invited but would like to join.'''

Italy
The Kingdom of Italy would love to join.

We decline the application for the Kingdom of Italy.

The Kingdom asks why. Octivian Marius (talk) 00:21, June 14, 2013 (UTC)

'''What do you mean why? You're a hated state and non-trusted by the CSTO. Also, your government is controlled by a corrupt nationalist regime.'''

RoS
The RoS expresses interest in joining as an observer to help with information and logisitics. If Russia declines due to ties with NATO and the US we will understand.

'''We agree to your application. The map and observer member section will be changed.'''

The RoS would like to improve relationships with the rest of the CSTO by becoming a full member in the organization

OK then, I will change your status.

Scandinavia
The Empire of Scandinavia; consisting of the Kingdoms of Sweden, Finland, Norway, Lappland, Denmark, and Iceland, requests to join the CSTO.

'''We agree to your application. Map will be edited shortly.'''

Kiel
Kiel or the Nordic Republic of Germany would like to join. We are the city-sate of Kiel and we are subject to more growth.

We agree to your application.

'''Octivian! It is KIEL, I BEFORE E'''

Dinetah, having recently rediscovered the Old World would like to join.

We accept their application.

Texas
We would like to become full members.

Your application is accepted.

Falklands

Galicia, Castille-Leon, Aragon, and Catalonia
All four of these former states of Spain wish to be re-instated as full individual members.

Russian Federation: As the Head Security Council State we will allow this due to these states being vassals of the United Republics.

correction: Vassals of Portugal and Granada.

Resolution 001
A Resolution to establish multiple official languages and recognized languages

This Resolution has the effect of establishing English, Spanish, Scandinavian, and Russian all as official languages of the Collective Security Treaty Organization. Recognized languages will include the official, or de facto, language of each member nation. Proposed by: Scandinavia

Discussion
United Republics would like to note many nation here do not speak any of the current languages.

Scandinavian isn't a language.

'''In schools, he has merged Danish, Swedish, Finnish, Norwegian, and Iclandic all into one. His next generation will know Scandinavian as a language. '''

The South Africans would like Afrikaans/Dutch to be included as well.

Resoulution 002
A Resolution asking all CSTO members to join the ULN.

New Romania: We do not wish to join the ULN.

Resolution 003
'''All wars that a member declares must be supported by 66% of all members. '''

Russia: Declined - Let this vote be halted for now as the main constitution for the CSTO will be created soon. Edboy452 (talk) 20:42, June 16, 2013 (UTC)

Resolution 004
Operation Indian Order

Seeing India being devastated by the Zombie plague, the Commonwealth proposes a temporary invasion and occupation of India.

Process: All nations participating will be granted an area of land, the remaining Indian government will be notified and asked to support us. The nations and India will be distributed a large amount of Phlaxicortin-X. They are asked to bring their own retrofitted bombers to drop the mist or fire bombers.

The Commonwealth has already mobilized 150,000 troops to Perth.

This operation would be a part of a larger ULN operation.

Resolution 5
Operation Korean Unity

The power finally in our hands, it is time to unite the Korean peoples under the united banner of the Republic of Korea. South Korea is already a crucial member in this organisation, and it should be our responsibility to help end the chaos in the area.

Process: A large force will be assembled to undertake the Invasion, possibly the biggest our alliance might have to ever raise. The attack into North Korea will be three-fronted. To begin with, we will begin the Invasion through the DMZ, crashing through the defences of the North Koreans. Yet this will be a diversion to our main assault, which will take place on the eastern and western coast of the Nation, right behind the DMZ. From here, the three armies will meet and march into the rest of the nation, and finally unite a broken nation.

Commonwealth: I propose that for a six month period afterwards, joint occupation of Pyongyang until all pro-socialist leaders and strongholds are dissolved and dealt with.

South Africa: I agree. Plus, we propose the construction of CSTO bases around the former country, around five to ten. We will also assist in counter-insurgency activities.

New Romania: We will only help invade if we get some land on the Korean peninsula. We will need financial support to help aid our military though. I also propose that we get forces there in time in case the war starts now and many lives will be lost on both sides due to the balance in forces.

'''You already helped, algorithm is on the Talk Page, also H E Double Hockey Stick. No you may not have land on the Korean Peninsula.'''

Resolution 6
Eviction of Poland.

Seeing as to how they treated Russians badly in the war which took place only a decade ago, and their unwillingness to co-operate with the German members, such as giving back historic German lands, the Netherlands (and de facto South Africa) believes that Poland should be removed from this organisation.

I don't really care. If the nations can let go of grudges and work together, it could prevent a war, and bring peace. Whatever the CSTO agrees on, the RoS will support.Daeseunglim (talk) 22:31, June 20, 2013 (UTC)

Look, this is going to cause conflict anyway. Within the organisation. All of this is OOC, BTW, but I'll be honest - it will not be pretty. We could stop it now or see CSTO destroyed, because I want the CSTO to go on and this will create a lot of problems. Imp (Say Hi?!) 15:28, June 21, 2013 (UTC)

Scandinavia and New Romania need to solve their issues.

Aye
Republic of SusquehannaDaeseunglim (talk) 15:32, June 21, 2013 (UTC) (We are willing to host talks, now that the war is over.)

Russia: We have removed Scandinavia from the organization for not reaching a peaceful solution. (Edboy told me to post this.)

Scandinavia: I believe, as per the precedent set by Res. 6, that a vote is needed for eviction. Romania and Scandinavia have in fact reached a peacful situation. It has been reported during an autopsy that King Harold I was mentally infirm during the last nine months of his life, and King Haakon is attempting to fix this problem.

Also, New Romania threatened my sovereignty by ordering me not to expand. I only replied that if they got in my way, I would have to take action. Reximus55 (talk) 18:09, June 21, 2013 (UTC)

Resolution 10
Noting the use of Anthrax as a weapon in texas and other nations, the commonwealth proposes a complete outlawing of the viruses use as a weapon, as well as sending inspectors regularly to medical and other related sites in each nation to confirm the posession of any form of Anthrax is gone to the greatest extent. Plus making the charges/punishments for posessing anthrax privately more extensive. This resolution would also allow CSTO nation law enforcement the ability to issue a warrant to search suspected posessors' homes for any trace of the virus.

Pretty sure it is already punishable by the worst punishment endorsed by the nation it is in, so death in the USA, but life inprisonment in the UK under the counter terrorist act Local (talk) 21:53, June 27, 2013 (UTC)

Resolution 11
The base of Resolution 11 is to kick Canada from the organization, due to their instability and hostility towards the United States for no particular reason which breaks Article I, Part I of the Charter, and the production of biological weapons based off the Bubonic Plague which breaks Article III, Part IV of the charter and results in a vote able kick from the organization. As well as kicking Canada from the organization, they should also be placed under an embargo to prevent the distribution of any form of chemical or biological substance/weapon. This is a rogue state and has to be dealt with by being pacified by quarantining it from the rest of the Earth to prevent any future hostilities. Canada does not get to vote in this.

Operation White Knight

South Africa calls upon its fellow members to send some troops and a large number of scientists to the nation to help it deal with the Exes outbreak. Measures taken so far are proving successful yet the nation would like some support in the matter.

Russian Federation: I can't send some troops at the moment because of the threat with Canada and the Holy Roman War, but I can send in shipments of weapons and scientists to aid you.

South Africa: That is all we actually need. We will contain the infection, so that will be OK. Our troop numbers are also very high, but we will not be able to help our ally against Canada.

Resolution 14
Following Spain's decision to attempt to forcibly annex Granada, Granada promises it will keep its independence if Iberia is not completely united. Granada and Portugal inform the CSTO that they will take action against Spain, if these actions are not reverted immediately. Wishes to hear all CSTO nations acknowledgement of the situation.

OK, then they shall be removed because of their unjust actions.

Update on Resolution 14
Portugal and Granada thank the CSTO for not favoring either side in this conflict. A resolution has been reached and Portugal and Granada are prepared to agree to this peace agreement. It will divide Spain up into four nations, two each vassalized by Portugal and Granada. Portugal and Granada will undergo talks to join in a union of their current monarchs (just figureheads) and their current governments into one unitary constitutional parliamentary monarchy (again the monarch just a figurehead). Furthermore, this treaty would for the Iberian Community, a regional community for the Iberian Peninsula and surrounding areas. The Iberian Community will revisit unifying the nations of former Spain in 2000.

Resolution 15
Due to the instability of the organization in the western hemisphere, the Russian Federation proposes to kick all nations in the CSTO that don't maintain any influence in the eastern hemisphere. The benefits of this will result in stability in the organization because of the removal of many unstable members that are warmonger-like states such as the Republic of Susquehanna and Texas. However, the United Republics, Dinetah and Chan Santa Cruz will remain in the organization. Furthermore, the Falklands will be removed and not recognized from the organization.

Alright lets see what wars you've been in:
 * Middle Eastern War
 * Holy Roman War
 * Libertad War in Texas
 * War against Rez=Texas
 * RoS Civil War

You're not supposed to get into international conflicts like I said, you're just a regional power. Also lets see what has also made me think of kicking you as well:
 * Low Stability
 * Production of Nuclear Weapons
 * Breaking the Geneva Convention since the rise of your state

Also what you said about your naval base is completely irrelevant. Edboy452 (talk) 01:24, July 7, 2013 (UTC)

Okay, when did I break the Geneva convention? I only broke it once, and I changed my mind after other nations talked to me. I am only keeping nukes because of Canada. Did they fall yet? I have been gone for a full week, and I am unsure. I only kept the nukes as a deterrent. Can I turn them over to Russia for decommissioning? Daeseunglim (talk) 01:28, July 7, 2013 (UTC)

Yes Canada has fallen, also nukes shouldn't even be built because of a threat from a nearby nation. If you've never started entering international conflicts, you would have never even needed protection due to your neutral state. Furthermore, you haven't broke the Geneva Convention just once, but multiple times in your turns. Edboy452 (talk) 01:35, July 7, 2013 (UTC)

Resolution 18
Seeing Resolution 15 as an attempt by Russia to diminish power from member states in the Western Hemisphere, and noting the General-Secretary has not been changed for nearly a decade, the CSTO establishes the following protocols.

 * The office of General-Secretary shall be elected every five years.

We refuse to compromise on the first provision. Resolution 15 was a blatant attempt at extending Russian domination over the CSTO. Texas will no longer stand for it. We are all equal, from Dinetah to Russia. Doctor Evulz (talk) 04:39, July 7, 2013 (UTC)

After re-reading it, the RoS agrees with Texas. Daeseunglim (talk) 04:43, July 7, 2013 (UTC)

We agree with the above two statements. The deal with the RoS is accepted. Commonwealth diplomats in the RoS tell the leadership there that their nation has been overly exercising military power over the last several years. OreoToast555(Talk) 04:44, July 7, 2013 (UTC)

Resolution 19
Intervene in Texas to return the legitimate government and bring stability and peace to the region.

 * Texas Government-in-Exile - Doctor Evulz (talk) 04:54, July 7, 2013 (UTC), though I believe Chan Santa Cruz has already commenced an invasion.


 * Dinetah - Bfoxius (talk) 15:56, July 7, 2013 (UTC), we will begin immediately.

Abstain

 * Russian Federation - (Would like to help but we're having presidential elections right now and we can't risk a security compromise) - 19:04, July 7, 2013 (UTC)

Result
The Commonwealth, the RoS and Dinetah forces will invade Rez. Texas on behalf of the legitimate exiled government in 1996.50.

Resolution 20
We ask that a joint commander of all CSTO forces in CSTO opperations is elected. A up of it would be less confusion and more teamwork. That equals less casualties, faster battles, and more effective CSTO. The Nation who the commander is from would get to plan the battle strategies

Nay

 * Russian Federation - We don't want our military controlled by another state, we will make our own strategies. Edboy452 (talk) 20:24, July 7, 2013 (UTC)

Discussion
The RoS proposes staging meetings every 6 months between member nations to discuss military strategy and supply's instead. Daeseunglim (talk) 21:31, July 7, 2013 (UTC)

Election of a new Secretary-General
I personally believe that an election of a new secretary general and implementation of a council to the CSTO would be beneficial.

Discussion
I don't think you're allowed to recall votes. However, I'll allow it. Edboy452 (talk) 02:07, July 7, 2013 (UTC)

So we dont even get 24 hours to vote? I see G greg e (talk)

Result
Andrew Pufal is elected as Secretary-General of the CSTO.

France
Why is France being kicked from the organization, what rules/charter did they violate? G greg e (talk)

Article II, Part I - No neutral nations outside of the organization should be attacked for an unjust reason.

This is why they got kicked, for randomly attacking the HRE and causing an unnecessary conflict in western Europe. Edboy452 (talk) 03:13, June 23, 2013 (UTC)

Britain
Lemme make it clear. If the Brits tear themselves apart, then the Dutch will go in to unite them once, but under the Dutch banner. Therefore, would you please support us. We will be placing a friendly regime on the Brits anyway. Imp (Say Hi?!) 20:54, June 26, 2013 (UTC)

Russian Federation: I would only send supplies, I don't want to be in any more conflicts after the war in Scandinavia for a little while.

Falklands: As a previous colony of the UK, and as a member state of a member state of this association, we feel that we should get a part of the UK (SECRET: London, we are already funding rebels secretly.)

Republic of Susquehanna: We do not want the boot from this organization because it protects us from foreign powers. Tell us why we are war mongrels and we will work to stop.
