Frankly I could care less about the BBC Treaty, I am standing here as a Novasolan and pointing at the Novasolum Treaty, which I hope we all value higher than any other micronational treaty, as it binds 4 micronations and actually has meaningful content.
The question is quite simple: how does Natopia value the Novasolum Treaty?

Alexandria did consult the Novasolum nations, and Natopia decided to aid them. Perhaps Natopia should have consulted the Novasolum nations, again, and got similar responses? I see Alexandria's initial canvasing for support as the requisite "consultation" required. Any further consultation, as is now obvious, would have been pointless.
If such a matter of sovereignty must be scutinized by the Novasolum nations, perhaps the treaty is more intrusive than we originally realized.

Let's stop calling this a war because it is an illegitimate and illogical one, such as all recwars. And I don't care the reprocussions, I will make it known that recwars are entirely stupid. In fact I may write an essay on why.

The Novasolum Treaty is not intrusive but attempts to foster a common foreign policy for the Novasolan micronations. Basicly, when we recwar, we should recwar all together. And we should recwar for noble causes, even if it's just for fun. The spirit of the Novasolum Treaty is self-defense and non-agression. Not some sort of misplaced peace-enforcement operation.
The Circum-Raynor war is/was not silly because it's a recwar, but because it is a blatant violation of all norms of logic foreign policy, acceptable diplomatic and military behavior and good faith in bi- or multilateral relations. Even George Bush has been more considerate in waging war than many micronations in the Circum Raynor War.
If there would come a day that a micronation wages war on Natopia for no serious reason, that would be the day that that micronation wages (rec)war on 5 Novasolan micronations, and that would count as a strong signal in the micronational community, as much as it would have been the case when the Novasolan micronations would have agreed to leave the Circum Raynor for what it is. Isn't Natopia the micronation spearheading a non-aligned movement?
Perhaps I am biased but I feel the non-involvement policy of Gotzborg, Paulovia and Anthelia was the right policy. The way the Novasolum Treaty has been invoked, (ab)used or even ignored during the Circum Raynor War has ternished the meaning of the Treaty. Ultimately, this is a pitty, because - I repeat - I cannot think of any other intermicronational treaty which reunites that many micronations and actually has some content.
Finally, I stress that this is a personal opinion, which I formulate as President of SIN, the Society for the Integration of Novasolum.
ps. how do I change my sig? I just can't find the right button....just asking because I am no longer President of Anthelia...

Can I just point out that the Circum-Raynor war has nothing to do with Novasolum?
You guys are against Lovely. Matbaa and the Coalition are purely involved against Woodstania. If you want to know the true truth behind the war, I suggest you talk to me or Chris Mackintosh of Riponia about it.

I consider recwarring a childish, completely idiotic game that no real foreign policy has binding toward because foreign policy is based on reality rather than a joke like recwars.
Basically, I'm just ranting because we should not be recwarring at all...
...but we probably won't be active in the war anymore anyway now that Nate is gone for hte next 20 days.
