NEVO

The NEVO or Nederlandse Verdragsorganisatie (English: Dutch Treaty Organisation) was an intermicronational organisation which was started by Batavia, Flanders and the Netherlands to unite the Dutch sector in one organisation. It began on the 12th of June 2007, with the ratification of the Dutch Treaty by Flanders, and was dissolved in May 2010.

Goals and achievements

The stated goals of the NEVO were the assurance of peace between the Dutch speaking nations, the creation of a permanent diplomatic dialogue between them, the promotion of cooperation between these continents, helping them recruit new citizens, safeguarding the rights of micronational citizens and organise a yearly intermicronational conference. It was to do this with the adoption of directives (richtlijnen), some by a two thirds majority (mainly pertaining to symbols and the internal workings of the organisation) and some by unanimity (regaring to economic matters, human rights, the exchange of infrastructure, the mutual recognition of university degrees and the promotion of micronationalism).
