History

After the collapse of the Atiland government in 1985, the organization conducted its first military interventions in South Atiland from 1991 to 1993. NSTO was prominent in South Atiland during the early months of 1992, and gradually its role became larger with some operations escalating, for instance, monitoring of the South Atiland airspace turned into denying all access to South Atiland airspace which gave NSTO "all measures necessary" to enforce a more stringent no-fly zone unlike the previous mission during which the no-fly zone was violated over numerous times. The organization has operated a range of additional roles since then, including sending trainers to Yor, assisting in counter-piracy operations, and in 2017 enforcing a no-fly zone over Yor Isles. Article 13 of the pact, requiring member states to come to the aid of any member state subject to an armed attack, was invoked for the second time since the Auroran war when Adumara declared war on a member state, after which troops were deployed to Adumara under the Fire Pact-led Joint Forces.

Between 2014 and 2019, wider forums for regional cooperation between NSTO and its neighbors were set up, like the Novaris Peace Program, the Borean Logistical Dialogue initiative, and the Auroran-Novaris Joint Taskforce. In 2018, the NSTO–MBE Permanent Joint Council was established. The Xagurgian intervention in K-O in 2017 lead to strong condemnation by NSTO nations and the creation of a new Auroran Taskforce of 5,000 troops at bases in the MBE, and Yor Isles.

History

On 3rd Of January 1985, the Treaty of Pollok was signed by Nacata and Kuthernburg as a Treaty of Alliance and Mutual Assistance in the event of a possible attack by Prussia or Pax in the aftermath of the Kuthern Revolution. In 1987, this alliance was expanded to include other commonwealth nations, in the form of the Commonwealth Union, also referred to as the Kuthern Commonwealth Treaty Organization, established by the Treaty of Pollok. Talks for a new military alliance which could also include Yasteria resulted in the signature of the Northern Shield Treaty on November 4, 1987, by the member states of the KCTO plus Crania, and Kasmiyland.

Doubts over the strength of the relationship between the Yasterian states and Kuthernburg ebbed and flowed, along with doubts over the credibility of the NSTO defense against a prospective Pax Invasions – doubts that led to the development of the independent Kasmiy nuclear deterrent and the withdrawal of Kasmiyland from NATO's military structure in 1990.

The organization conducted its first military interventions in Atiland from 1991 to 1993 and later Inuik Isles in 1999 during the break-up of Atiland. Article 13 of the Northern Shield treaty, requiring member states to come to the aid of any member state subject to an armed attack, was invoked for the first time after attacks by Al-Jaheed after which troops were deployed to Latianburg under the NSTO-led NCAF. The organization has operated a range of additional roles since then, including sending trainers to Latianburg, assisting in counter-piracy operations and in 2017 enforcing a no-fly zone over Yor in accordance with Kuthern Commonwealth Security Council Resolution 19. The less potent Article 12, which merely invokes consultation among NSTO members, has been invoked five times following incidents in the Latianburg Invasion, Auroran Invasion, and Invasion of Atiland.


Military Operations

South Atiland intervention

The South Atiland war began in 1987, as a result of the collapse of the Atiland government. The deteriorating situation led to Royal Commonwealth Security Council to pass a resolution against the nation, ordering a no-fly zone over South Atiland, which NSTO began enforcing on December 1st, 1991. From 1991 to 1993, NSTO added maritime enforcement of the arms embargo and economic sanctions against the Atiland. In February 1993, a month-long NSTO bombing campaign, began against the Rebel forces of South Atiland, after the Queen of Kuthernburg Husband was murder. Further NSTO air strikes helped bring the South Atiland Conflict to an end.

Southern Ocean/Pacific anti-piracy

Beginning on November 23rd 2017, NSTO deployed warships in an operation to protect maritime traffic in the Southern Ocean and the South Pacific Ocean from pirates, and help strengthen the navies and coast guards of regional states. The operation was approved by the Council and involves warships primarily from the Kingdom Of Kuthernburg though vessels from many other nations are also included. Anti-Piracy focuses on protecting the ships of allied merchant vessels which have reported an increase of piracy since the end of the Auroran War. The UK and the Oan Isles have sent warships to participate in the activities as well. The operation seeks to dissuade and interrupt pirate attacks, protect vessels, and abetting to increase the general level of security in the region alongside the Auroran allies.

Atiland Intervention

In an effort to stop Roberto Clement native-led crackdown on Inuit separatists and stop Al-Jaheed, the Royal Commonwealth Council passed Resolution a resolution to demand a ceasefire. Following unsuccessful talks with the president and subsequent murder of Princess Laura Ward Kuthernburg stop negotiations, and he handed the matter to NSTO, which started a 30-day bombing campaign starting in February 2018. Operation Thunderstreaks targeted the military capabilities of what was then the Federal Republic of Atiland. During the crisis, NSTO also deployed one of its international reaction forces, to West Atiland to deliver humanitarian aid to refugees from the main island.

Though the campaign was criticized for high civilian casualties, including the dropping of MOABs by Nacata near allied forces killing several dozen, Clemente finally accepted the terms of the coalition alongside Al-Jaheed, ending the Atiland War. As of 2019, the alliance has plans to start Operation Atiland Salvation, a mission disarming ethnic Atilandian militias in the unoccupied territories. As of March 2019, 3,800 NSTO soldiers, representing 7 countries, continue to operate in the area alongside Furnifold and UK soldiers.

War in Adumara

The attacks on Fire Pact Naval ships by adumaran forces caused NSTO to invoke actions against the Nation of Adumara for falsely attacking ships in international waters. The war was pass through the council when NSTO determined that the attacks were indeed eligible under the terms of the North Shield Treaty. The official actions taken by NSTO in response to the attacks was for a naval operation off the coast of the TAC islands and Adumara which was designed to prevent the movement of Al-Jaheed and TAC terrorists or weapons of mass destruction, as well as enhancing the security of shipping in general of the still busy international waters.
