The Vesüha Accords (Official name: Accords agreed at Vesüha for the Unification and Reestablishment of Hurmu between the Kingdom of Craitland and Lakkvia on one part and the Order of the Holy Lakes and the Restored Khanate of Lontinien on the other part) form an international agreement between, on one hand, the Kingdom of Craitland and its dependency Lakkvia, and, on the other hand, the Hurmu Trust Territory with regard to the unification and reestablishment of Hurmu as an independent sovereign state.
The Accords were negotiated and signed in the Palace of the Elenaran, in Vesüha, Lakkvia. The Craitish and Lakkvian side included Ribe Särensen (Craitish prime minister) and Jan Spiik (Lakkvian prime minister), and the Hurmu side included Temüjin (Co-ruler of the Hurmu Trust Territory and Khan of Lontinien) and Anskar Isamma (Order of the Holy Lakes).
Background
Following the collapse of the Storish state in 1685 AN, the Order of the Holy Lakes, teaming up with the Restored Khanate of Lontinien, began securing the former territories of Stormark where Hurmu people formed a sizeable part of the population, and established the Hurmu Trust Territory there as a provisional government. In so doing, people in Lakkvia, began seeing the possibility of a Hurmu reunification as a possibility for the first time in modern history. Calls were made for reunification of the Hurmu Trust Territory and Lakkvia.
Initially, it was expected that the Hurmu Trust Territory would be submerged into the Craitish territory of Lakkvia. It became clear, however, that there was opposition on both sides to this. The Lakkvian government had felt increasingly neglected by the Craitish government, and, lately, Hurmu and Lakkvian cultures saw a renaissance in Lakkvia where people could apply both identities on themselves, regardless of actual ethnicity. "It is an identity of the heart", as Jan Spiik put it. As such, Mr Spiik, Prime Minister of Lakkvia, moved for the establishment of an independent and reunified Hurmu. This surprised the conservative and somewhat insular Craitish government, who had recently won a majority in the Craitish parliament, but [something about the Craitish reaction in Cherry Trees]. As such, the Craitish government agreed in the end to allow for the formation of a Hurmu state. They invited representatives of the Hurmu Trust Territory to Vesüha to negotiate a settlement accordingly.
