Adding infobox, fancifying the display text of the treaty without altering the text itself, changing the name of the Natopian Chancellor to the correct one (my goof), adding see also and categories as well as the name of the Universal Compact in Nats.

The '''Universal Compact''' is a formal treaty between [[Natopia]] and [[Universalis]] that affirms the free association relationship between the two nations. The compact spells out Universalis' choice of freely being admitted to Natopia as a demesne and the stipulations by which it may, if it so desires, secede from the Bovic Empire and re-assert its status as a fully independent nation. This has not been necessary for many years, as both nations benefit from the relationship, but it is a point of pride for the fiercely independent Universals who are among the oldest nations on Micras.
