[h2][center]High Kingdom of Itherae[/center][/h2]

The Trajkovski Accord was definitely a surprise to most officials in Itherae as none actually believed that the Cydernian Republic would actually seem out such a pact with Itherae. However, Cydernia would prove as a useful ally should the need arise given their location in the world being a valuable trade area. With Itheraen aid, this would give the government some control over that valued trade node and allow Itheraen dominance to extend past its own borders to a minor degree. Thus the government recalled the envoy, Herodes Pittheus, that had previously been sent out to negotiate a mere non-aggression pact with the Cydernian Republic to sign the agreement that was most in the Itherae’s favor.

With the Agreement finalized and signed the Itheraen government held high hopes for its diplomatic success in the future as to achieve her majesty’s goal prevent a war in the region. The Republic of Cydernia would be extremely useful as an aid in deterring powers from trying to distabilize the region, even if the Cydernian Military was a bit lackluster.
