The East Ulethan Organization of Independent Associates (better known by its acronym EUOIA ['juoja]) is an intergovernmental political, economic, and military alliance between TBD independent nations in East Uletha. The EUOIA grew from an idea of intergovernmental cooperation to a complex umbrella organisation that manages and promotes many different tiers of involvement. Not every member state is involved in or party to each aspect of the organization.

History

Preliminary work and the Treaty of Reeghyt (1932–‍1944)

During the 1920s and early 1930s more and more conflicts about fishery came up between the states in the Eastern Darcodian Sea. In 1934, Mergania and Wyster finally signed a fisheries agreement in Reeghyt, nowadays known as the "Treaty of Reeghyt". It regulates international fishing in the region, but also to some extent border control, jurisdiction and trade rules between the participating nations.

Treaty of xxxxx (1944–‍1977)

  • In the 1930s and 1940s the advantages of the first treaty became more and more obvious.
  • thus, more countries wanted to join
  • besides the members of the Treaty of Reeghyt, also tbd, tbd, tbd, Eshein, Reeland, Viljanni signed and ratified the treaty in October 1944
  • significant extension of previous treaty

Historically significant summits

Member states

There are tbd members of the East Ulethan Organisation of Independent Associates. The EUOIA covers a total area of more than 3 million square kilometers across the eastern portion of the Ulethan continent. The profile of each country varies from smaller countries like tbd to larger ones, such as tbd. Every country in the organisation has at least one stretch of coastline, and some of the countries are situated almost entirely on an island. The climate varies from colder continental climate in the north to semi-arid and subtropical regions in the south. All of the countries feature some urbanisation, but the population and density of each member state varies across the spectrum. Viljanni, for example, is among the most densely populated. Although census numbers do not exist for every country, the population within the member states exceeds tbd million. The largest city is tbd, tbd; tbd is the most populated country.

On a political level, each country is different. Most of the member states are republics of some type. Eshein, tbd and Wyster are monarchies. Other varying systems exist, like Belphenia's theocratic guilds (---------- must be checked ----------). With a few exceptions, most of the countries rank as high or very high on the human development index.


Treaties

The EUOIA is based on a significant number of agreements and treaties. A treaty is a binding agreement between EUOIA member countries and sets out EUOIA objectives, rules for EUOIA institutions, how decisions are made and the relationship between the EUOIA and its member countries. Actions of the EUOIA itself have to be based on treaties and have to been approved voluntarily and democratically by all invovled EUOIA member countries. Treaties are amended to make the EUOIA more efficient and transparent, to prepare for new member countries and to introduce new areas of cooperation. Each treaty has to be signed at least by three member nations to come into action.

Besides the Treaty of XXXXX, which have to be ratified and signed by every member and regulates the basic principles and rules of the organization, specialied agreements exist under the umbrella of the organization. Under the treaties, EUOIA institutions can adopt legislation, which the member countries then implement.

Politics

Common legal system and justice

Foreign relations

The EUOIA has a system of common representation available to all member states in select countries. These facilities are staffed by EUOIA citizens, and the ambassador is sent by one of the participating states. The common representation allows for a cost-saving measure, given that many EUOIA members are smaller countries. Not all countries participate in the common representation system. Even among EUOIA members that do participate, individual countries may elect send their own, separate diplomatic delegation.

Some of the common representations abroad are:

Societas Ulethan

A Societas Ulethan (SU) is a public company registered in accordance with the corporate law of the East Ulethan Economic Community (EUEC), introduced in 1992. Such a company may more easily transfer to companies in other member states. However, national law continues to supplement the basic rules in the regulation on formation and mergers. SUs usually use a .su top-level-domain. One of the prominent examples of a SU is the Aerotheon Group located in several EUOIA member states.
