The '''Commonwealth-Whai Treaty of Free Navigation and Commerce''', also known colloquially as the Reach-Rangi Agreement, is a diplomatic agreement between the [[Assembled Commonwealth]] and the [[Tahora Whai]].
 
Line 4 ⟶ 7:
The piratical actions of the Tahora Whai and the peoples of Sector West have long been in conflict with trade associations and the Assembled Commonwealth. While various guilds utilized Whai privateers during turbulent periods of the Commonwealth's history, Whai ships are more often than not pursued by the Commonwealth navy.
 
Both Factions expanded their zones of influence in recent years and months. The astrographic areas these factions claim, the [[Aether Reach]] and [[Kikorangi o te Tahora Whai]], are manifestations of this expansion. Within each region, it is generally understood that the faction is the local authority.
 
Several prior treaties between famous Whai kaiārahi and the Navy attempted to ease tensions between the two parties, but failed to either encompass enough Whai fleets or survive the death of the kaiārahi. This new agreement seeks to remedy these failings in two ways.

===Public Statements===
[[Assembled_Commonwealth#The_Assembly|The Office of the Six of Commerce]]'s public statement after talks with representatives of the Tahora Whai.
: As the chosen representative of the Six of Commerce, it has been my great honour to meet on behalf of the Assembled Commonwealth with the good Captains of the Tahora Whai, the historical stewards of the Kikorangi o te Tahora Whai, and to formally conclude the negotiations regarding the Commonwealth-Whai Treaty of Free Navigation and Commerce.
: The Assembled Commonwealth shares with the Tahora Whai a history of master artisans and brave spacefarers, but there’s an even stronger link that binds us together: the idea that someone is truly great only when they are part of something greater, body and soul working towards the Common Good of their people.
Line 19 ⟶ 22:
: I look forward to continued cooperation with the Tahora Whai in this endeavour.
: ''Volha Haden'', Six of Commerce
