==Overview== The '''Acala Pact''' was a mutual nonaggression pact between the [[Capellan Commonality]] and the [[Federated Suns]]. It was signed in [[2345]] following the successful invasion of the worlds of [[Mira]], [[Mesartim]] and [[Almach]] by the Federated Suns in [[2344]].<ref name="HB:HLp13">''Handbook: House Liao'', p. 13, "Timeline: Capellan Zone"</ref>Although these three worlds were former [[Chesterton Trade Federation]] worlds that had been incorporated into the [[Tikonov Grand Union]] and were therefore not a part of the [[Capellan Commonality]], the Acala Pact was the means by which [[Reynard Davion]] effectively neutralized Capellan Commonality support for the Tikonov Grand Union, and paved the way for the signing of the [[Almach Accords]] in [[2346]].<ref name="HL(TCC)p23">''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 23</ref><ref name="HD:TFSp26">''House Davion (The Federated Suns)'', p. 26-27, "The War Leader"</ref><ref name="HB:HDp21">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 21, "Taking the Initiative"</ref> It is possible that [[Reynard Davion]] saw the Acala Pact as a possible means for incorporating the [[Capellan Commonality]] into the [[Federated Suns]] by diplomatic means; the Acala Pact established not just a mutual nonaggression treaty intended to promote trade and peace but also a forum for settling future border disputes. However, the Capellan Commonality was evidently motivated to sign the Pact simply to prevent losing any of their worlds to the probes the [[Federated Peacekeeping Forces]] was making into the [[Capellan Zone]].<ref name="HD:TFSp26"/> In [[2357]], [[Reynard Davion]] renounced the Acala Pact with the [[Tikonov Grand Union]] (but not the [[Capellan Hegemony]]) and demanded the immediate transfer of the former [[Chesterton Trade Federation]] worlds of [[Bell]] and [[Highspire]] from the [[Sarna Supremacy]] and [[Chesterton]] from the Tikonov Grand Union,<ref name="HD:TFSp26"/><ref name="HL(TCC)p24">''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 24</ref> and according to Capellan sources, using the threat of atomic weapons to enforce his claims to these worlds.<ref name="HL(TCC)p24"/> House Davion forces occupied [[Bell]] in September [[2357]], an action which ultimately led to the end of the Acala Pact.<ref name="HL(TCC)p24"/><ref name="HD:TFSp26"/> The Acala Pact was renounced by [[Selek Tucas]], Prime Minister of the [[Capellan Commonality]], in [[2365]] as a part of the conditions of the secret [[Hessen Conventions]] between the Capellan Commonality and the [[Tikonov Grand Union]];<ref name="HL(TCC)p24"/><ref name="HB:HLp14">''Handbook: House Liao'', p. 14, "Tucas' Plotting"</ref> the Tikonov Grand Union promptly also renounced the [[Almach Accords]] and began a campaign against [[House Davion]].<ref name="HB:HLp13"/><ref name="HD:TFSp26"/> ==Notes== ''[[House Davion (The Federated Suns)]] and ''[[Handbook: House Davion]] both state that the Acala Pact was negotiated and signed with the [[Capellan Hegemony]].<ref name="HD:TFSp26"/><ref name="HB:HDp27">''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 27, "Timeline: Early Years and the Age of War"</ref> However, according to ''[[House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)]]'' and ''[[Handbook: House Liao]]'' the Capellan Hegemony ended shortly after the end of the Capellan Hegemony/[[Sarna Supremacy]] war on December 31, [[2309]] and was replaced with the [[Capellan Commonality]].<ref name="HL(TCC)p17">''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 17, "Loosening Up"</ref><ref name="HB:HLp13G">''Handbook: House Liao'', p. 13</ref> ==References== <references /> ==Bibliography== * ''[[Handbook: House Davion]]'' * ''[[Handbook: House Liao]]'' * ''[[House Davion (The Federated Suns)]]'' * ''[[House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)]]'' [[Category:Documents]]
