Ratification Process
Hurmu
As the treaty required changes to national legislation, the Parlerment had to give its consent to the treaty. Usually, however, only the Senate is required to ratify treaties.

Notes:
- Nouvelle Alexandrie was previously known as Alduria-Wechua, under which name the treaty was signed and ratified by this state
- Elwynn and the Unified Governorates were parties to this treaty, after which they merged to form the Benacian Union
- Sanama was previously party to this treaty, but withdrew automatically upon leaving the Raspur Pact
- Ransenar, having signed the treaty in 1691, finally ratified it in 1705. Ransenar's legislature has for each session stalled ratification due disputes over the livestock ban clause in the treaty. Hurmu and Ransenar, along with the Raspur Pact, sought to resolve the interpretation dispute. In 1705, the dispute was resolved and Ransenar's legislature ratified the treaty. It came into effect immediately in both countries.
