Treaty of Cajamarca
The Treaty of Cajamarca, also known as the Treaty of Cooperation and Non-Aggression between the Federation of Alduria and the Wechua Nation and The Hexarchy, is a treaty signed in 1688 AN, that normalized diplomatic relations between Alduria-Wechua and The Hexarchy. The signing ceremony took place at the Wechua city of Cajamarca.
The treaty settled relations between the two countries and laid the groundwork provided for broad cooperation in trade and in other fields. It included a non-aggression principle and commitments "to be good neighbors to one another... in Keltia", among others. It also established a system of treaty ports much like Alduria and Jingdao maintained in the past, with the Hexarchy opening the Island and Port of Ashtaroth (known to Alduria-Wechua as Sal) and Alduria-Wechua opening the Port of Judah.
Upon the death of Gilgamesh I, his son Gilgamesh II upheld and unilaterally expanded provisions of the treaty to allow greater access by citizens of now-New Alexandria into the country for religious, cultural, and/or economic purposes.
