CoN 4: First Treaty of Lisboa

Background
Following Resolution V, the Europeans were enraged at the Asian states, specifically Malaya's audacity to abuse the Council's power in such a way to ban Europeans from colonizing Asia. The Netherlands and Portugal met in secret, and wrote a treaty on the matter.

Text of the Treaty
1st Treaty of Lisboa

18 AUG 1577

Whereas the tyrannical Resolution V was passed;

Hereforth the League Incentivizing Catholic Expansionism; LICE, is established.

Hereforth the states that ratify the 1st Treaty of Lisboa are members of LICE.

Hereforth members of LICE agree to [CENSORED] and, when deemed necessary,[CENSORED].

Signed

Hugo von Oranje, Grand Pensionary of the Netherlands

Henrique I, King of Portugal

Aftermath
Some contents of the treaty are unknown, but it was written intentionally to give some clue as to what the Asian states were in for. Conflict is on the horizon. The treaty has since been abolished, as of July of 1594.
