Argentine-Atlantean Non-Aggression Treaty

Preamble
The Government of the Argentine Republic and the Government of the Atlantean Empire consider that the time has come to formally codify and ratify the peaceful political relations between Argentina and Atlantis to preserve the long-term peace from any future events and protect the sizable economic investments made by both nations. They have, therefore, decided to lay down the principles for the future development of these relations in the present declaration. The two Governments base their common desires on the fact that the maintenance and guarantee of a lasting peace between their countries is an essential pre-condition for the general peace of the Western Hemisphere.
