On the Imperial Diet and Peace:
I. In the event Imperial realms are at war with one another, and there is not a unanimous desire from the aforementioned parties to seek a peace deal from the Diet, then the Diet has no standing to intervene.

II. In the event there is a unanimous desire from all parties involved for the creation of a Diet administered peace, then an arbitration will be undertaken whereby the Diet's members will create and vote on a peace deal through a simple majority of 50% + 1. Once such a proposal is successfully passed, it will be legally enforced by the Diet.

a) Should any party violate the terms of the deal, the Diet will henceforth declare the offending party an "unprotected state" where any Kingdom can declare war on the truce-breaker and enact punitive measures alongside enforcing the pre-designed treaty, until such a time as the offending party submits or surrenders.

III. In the event His Holiness, the Pope, declares that an Imperial war must cease, then it will follow the steps of Article II of ensuring such terms are found.

Voted on and approved by the Imperial Diet of 1213

Amendment of 1213

1. It is recognised by this Diet that in regards to a country's spending, the raising or deployment of its military forces, or said country declaring and waging war, these matters are the sovereign prerogatives of each country alone. Thus, any resolutions-or parts of a resolution-of this Diet that concern any of these matters shall not be considered binding on a country without its consent, and the country or countries directly affected by any such resolution-or part of a resolution-shall each enjoy the power of veto on such matters.

On the specific scenario of a peace treaty coming about under the auspices of 'On the Imperial Diet and Peace', should it be passed by the Diet, a veto against said peace treaty may be overridden by a 67% majority of the Diet.

Second amendment of 1213

1. It is recognised by this Diet that in regards to a country's spending, the raising or deployment of its military forces, or said country declaring and waging war, these matters are the sovereign prerogatives of each country alone. Thus, any resolutions-or parts of a resolution-of this Diet that concern any of these matters shall not be considered binding on a country without its consent, and the country or countries directly affected by any such resolution-or part of a resolution-shall each enjoy the power of veto on such matters.

On the specific scenario of a peace treaty coming about under the auspices of 'On the Imperial Diet and Peace', should it be passed by the Diet, a veto against said peace treaty may be overridden by a 67% majority of the Diet. A vote to pass a peace deal under the provisions of 'On the Imperial Diet and Peace', which succeeds by a margin of 67% or more, shall be considered by convention to also be an affirmative vote on exercising this override provision on any potential vetos; no separate vote to override the veto will need to be held, with any such veto being considered to be automatically overridden by the original vote of 67% or more in favour.
