After some careful reviewing of our policies among the different nations and determining we already follow a path of neutrality, we the Triumvirates of the Armedan people have decided to formally declare neutrality from this day forth.
We shall participate in no attacks, will grant amnesty no ships of war, will not allow any armed force to base among us and will assist in no other military or hostile clandestine activities.
Any sapient being(s) from any nation in the UFP can request asylum from us, and we shall honor the asylum as long as they harm none while in our care. We shall negotiate on said being(s)'s behalf to resolve the situation with any nation concerned. If a crew of a ship of war requests asylum, the crew and their officers will be accepted, however the ship itself and any military material it carries must either be destroyed or abandoned.
While our nation is not strong enough nor has enough regional influence to serve in this function thoroughly, we are happy to act as an arbiter in disputes between nations and/or their rogue factions. Any such activity will take place under armed guard of all available Armedan ships, and will allow only the respective diplomatic units of the factions or nations concerned. No hostile ships or armed escorts will be allowed to enter the main system when a conference is taking place.
We shall establish several stations in select spots around federation space with complete neutrality. In and around these stations, battle may be started or continued as long as you do not damage any Armedan units or any ships/sapients under our protection.
Also, in keeping with our desire to broaden the horizons of all the people of the federation, we shall be improving the interconnecting networks between nations to facilitate knowledge and entertainment transfer. We shall provide the access codes to the respective governmental entities should they will to restrict or block access to the "InterNet" among their citizenry.
Please also be aware that other than the proprietary systems we developed or worked on with sovereign nations such as the Terran Dominion(such as zero-point energy, dis-entropy fields and quantum-entangled comm) or Sigma Dome(thalaron radiation pulse generator and other minor systems), all of our technologies are available to be purchased by any entity, governmental or otherwise. We therefore take no responsibility for any damage our products in the hands of others cause, understanding that such products are available to all sides of any conflict. Of course, in keeping with the Federation Prime Directive, we shall disable any of our devices we find in or around civilizations that haven't developed warp travel yet.
