III. The Parties consult with their neighbours before undertaking any invasive terraforming or construction work in plain sight of another party's settlement in and around the Sea of Kijima.

IV. The Parties will maintain a railway network between their settlements in and around the Sea of Kijima.

V. The signatories are to ensure that any citizens of theirs respect the terms of this treaty.

The Parties consider it necessary for the safety of their cosiness and taste to exert a measure of control over the land surrounding the Sea of Kijima. The Kijima Treaty Organisation (KTO) will be created for this purpose upon the signing of this treaty.

I. The KTO claims any land unsettled by the signing of this treaty between the coordinates of -320 X, -7880 Y and 733 X, -6651 Z.
 1. The KTO derives its right to claim land from the nationhood of any nation(s) party to this treaty.
 2. The authority over the land claimed by the KTO lies solely with the KTO. The nation(s) whose nationhood is being used to claim that land has(have) no particular authority over it.
 3. The KTO is an apolitical entity and does not possess nation status itself.

II. The Parties recognise the land claimed by the KTO as commons and may exploit its natural resources freely.

III. The Parties may claim any portion of the land claimed by the KTO for their own purposes.
 1. The authority over that land thereby passes to the settlement or nation making the claim.
 2. The Parties may only assume control over land claimed by the KTO if they have concrete plans to develop it.

IV. The Parties may invite players not party to this treaty to settle on land claimed by the KTO with the approval of the rulers of the settlements Izmorosjov, Kijima, and Noord Wortland.

V. The Parties will construct a series of walls styled after the Great Wall of China along the borders of the land claimed by the KTO to solidify this claim and to deter squatters.
