Notes:

The High Realm of Stormark and the Royal Kingdom of Gotzborg have agreed that for the duration of Gotzborg's hiatus, the latter's Micran territories will be in Stormark's Sovereign Protection.

Provisions concerning the aforesaid agreement have been laid down in Chapter X of the Treaty of Bruges Bay, which has been especially inserted into the said Treaty for that purpose. You may find Chapter X below the spoiler tag.

Amending the Treaty of Bruges Bay required, in accordance with Article 16 of the Treaty, the re-signing and re-ratification of the aforesaid Treaty. This process has just been completed in both countries.

Storish Re-Ratification of the Treaty of Bruges Bay

If you'd like, we could stripe the Gotzer land as a protectorate (like Ravaria is, already under Stormark) once added to the map?

That would be fine with me. :D

Whatever you feel is best.

To explain the rationale more for the admins - these lands are Victoria which has a close cultural and historical link to Stormark where part of the royal household of the former Kingdom of Victoria are still citizens.

The protectorate is sought to reflect that link moreso than to just preserve Gotzborg. Gotzborg’s official map has never been Micras but it feels inappropriate to let Victoria, which did use Micras for its official map, to be removed when there are still victorians in the wider community.

Gotzborg will respect whatever decision the council ultimately makes, whether that’s rejection or not. If the former, perhaps the council can reduce the lands but retain enough to respect Victorian history and it’s relationship to Stormark.

Should the current proposal be rejected, I'd be happy to help rearrange a subsequent claim to appease all parties :)

If that’s the case the council may set what it desires and we’ll work with Stormark to fill in the interior borders!

Would you like to converse in PM regarding a follow-up?

With regard to Liam's empassioned citation of historical affinities, Stormark could still claim all the land by removing an equally-sized, less cultural chunk somewhere else (or perhaps even a larger-sized amount to bank credit for future expansions). But that would depend on Stormark being willing to give up land at all...
