The Treaty of New Rome was a treaty signed in 1916 that ended hostilities between the Burgundian Empire, Borealia, Brésil, et al, and the nations of New England and Texas. This treaty was made after both New England and Texas were fully occupied by Burgundy and its allies. The treaty also does not address the state of war between Burgundy and nations other than New England or Texas.
