Pan-Artemian Coalition

The Pan-Artemian Coalition is an intergovernmental Economic and Political Union made up of exclusively Artemian nations. The Pan-Artemian Coalition was proclaimed as a successor of the Artemian Economic and Territorial Integrity Community in 2002 as a result of growing Artemian conservatism and due to shifting politics across the Artemian continent. The organisation implements various political, military and economic treaties signed through out its existence, such as military standardisation, multi-lateral free trade and internal passport and visa unions aiming to create a unified and ever improving Artemia. PAC's Administrative Headquarter resides in Oradea, Modrovia, while the headquarters of Artemian Military Operations resides in Holmgard, Gardarike.

The Most recent members state to be added to PAC is Seratof on the 7th of March 2006. An additional 8 countries participate in the PAC observer program and enjoy positive relations with the PAC member states, currently 4 countries within the observers program sit outside the Artemian continent. The Pan-Artemian Coalition has actively sought growth in the Eastern and Central Artemian regions, and has continued to grow its international economic presence through its various international trade agreements and observer nations.

Treaty of Lusjvan
With the end of The Grand Campaigns, Artemia as whole was left reeling due to the extensive casualties and the continental economic and infrastructure damage which the war had brought, which directly led to the growth of Artemian co-operation. The ideals of Artemian Co-operation and unity were seen as a key step towards preventing further conflict in the region and ensure the prosperity of Artemia as a whole. This view was shared by both the public and governments of various Artemian nations most prominently in Modrovia and Gardarike, who had soon after the war entered discussions of a reconstruction plan to rebuild both nations later called the Treaty of Lusjvan declared in 1926.

The Treaty of Lusjvan is commonly recognised as one of the first attempts at fulfilling the ideals of Artemian Co-operation and unity introducing the Lusjvan Oil and Steel Commission which aimed to regulate industrial production under a centralised authority and reconstruct the economies and industries of both Gardarike and Modrovia which also assisted in the co-ordination of funding received from the League of Free nations reconstruction plan. The governments of Gardarike and Modrovia understood that oil and steel were key to both waging wars and economic growth in the post-war period and believed that co-ordinating its use to benefit both nations industrial and economically. However, the Modrovia made little contribution and participation in the Lusjvan Oil and Steel Commission due to its internal political unrest post war which stagnated Modrovian international and domestic politics until 1938.

Treaty of Mering
In 1950, the plans for Artemian co-operation and prosperity grew under Modrovian guidance, introducing the Treaty of Mering as a result of the Mero-Curgovinian civil war. The Treaty of Mering built on the idea of regulating industry, economic growth and prevention of future wars, placing coal and steel under a single centralised authority between Modrovia and Mero-Curgovina. The treaty was utilised as a means to rebuild Mero-Curgovina and introduced Modrovian government funding and a small shared energy market between the two nations in order to bring the Mero-Curgovinian energy infrastructure back into working order.

Treaty of Oradea
In the midst of the Great Kesh War, Modrovian nuclear developments in both its military applications and civilian applications would ultimately interest Gardarike and Mero-Curgovina in the creation of a common shared energy market between the three nations expanding upon the earlier Treaty of Mering. The consolidation of the energy markets was agreed upon in the Treaty of Oradea of 1953 which laid the foundations for a shared nuclear energy market in future revisions of the treaty, ultimately further consolidating co-operation between the three nations who now all expressed interest in Artemian unity and growth.

In 1962, the Treaty of Oradea was expanded as planned to include a shared nuclear energy market as nuclear energy as a means to share knowledge of nuclear power amongst signatories and ensure consistent safety standards amongst participating nations. In addition the Treaty of Oradea was expanded to merge the Treaty of Lusjvan and Treaty of Mering into the Treaty of Oradea which in turn resulted in the merger of the Lusjvan Oil and Steel Commission and the Mering Steel and Coal commission into a singular centralised commission regulating the industry and economies of all signatories of the Treaty of Oradea, the number of which had grown at this time to four after Noordelijkland opted into the treaty, and later in 1965 Thuyiquakliq would sign and increase the number of participant nations to five.

In 1973, an additional clause was added to the Treaty of Oradea. Due to the increased communist threat presented by the ongoing Veikan Civil War, a multi-lateral defence agreement was introduced to the Treaty of Oradea between Modrovia, Gardarike, Mero-curgovina, Noordelijkland, and later Thuyiquakliq who signed the agreement in 1976. This officially introduced the Artemian Allied Defense Union, which aimed to further integrate the militaries of the participating nations allowing for more efficient military co-operation and created a common weapons market which participating members could access to fulfil military needs which allowed for a push for standardisation of munitions for logistical simplification. This move was carried out for both to protect Artemian territorial integrity and build on the ideals of Artemian unity by severely deterring wars between nations participating in the treaty.

Observer States
Albaterra is as of 2020, the only observer state in the PAC that is located on the continent of Avalonia. Albaterra first started the process of becoming an observer in 1988 and officially became an observer in 1992. During the late 1980's the country was suffering immensely from a crippled economy and a war-torn south that saw a large unemployment rate, increased unrest and an increase of illegal activities due to law enforcement's inability to deal with the rise in crime. Due to this extremely unstable situation the future was grim which led the government to seek international investment. This was the start of talks about becoming an observer in the PAC. This observer status was a very important step for Albaterra on the international scale and would pave the way for it's massive amount of export to eastern countries across the ocean. Since 1992 Albaterra continues to be the only member of the PAC that exports tropical agricultural produce, tropical lumber and other non-timber products, Cigars, Fruit wine and other tropical spirits. The country also has abundant reserves of Iron, coal, bauxite natural gas and oil which has flourished due to increased investment made by mainly Modrovia. The President of Albaterra, Leonardo H. Sapateiro has repeatedly praised Modrovia for their part in saving the Albaterran economy even went as far as stating during a press conference: "With Modrovian investment and a great leader Albaterra now thrives, but with Modrovian investment and a foolish leader Albaterra would still have been well off."

Pan-Artemian Coalition External Associate Program
The Pan-Artemian Coalition offers an External Associates Program for nations outside of the Artemian continent, enabling multilateral trade agreements between the PAC member nations and external associates. The typical associate deal will replace an existing cooperation agreement and thus intensifies relations between the signatories of the agreements, and has to meet several criteria, such as the associates must maintain the intention to establish close economic and political cooperation, associates much participate in new joint bodies for the management of the cooperation and both associates and the PAC are to offer.

The PAC will typically offer association in exchange for commitments which can be political, economic or otherwise. Associates may be offered access to PAC internal markets and can be completely exempt from trade tariffs or have the tariffs reduced on a case by case basis, and can be offered technical or financial assistance such as PAC backed loans or support for other national industries and sectors. However association deals are typically used as a framework for greater cooperation between the PAC member nations and nations outside the Artemian continent and can be expanded and changed as needed, as such association can be revoked by the PAC.
