Confederate-Earth Treaty of Alliance

"With this alliance we will provide you support against Republican greed, corruption and militarism! The Earth Separatist Faction will be loyal allies to your noble movement for freedom from the Republic slime of corruption and greed which plagues the Republic Senate, as well as Republic militarism and expansionism, forcing people to become subjects of the Republic!"

- Queen Jane I, leader of the ESF, to the Separatist Parliament, after the signing of the Confederate-Earth Treaty of Alliance in the Separatist Senate Building on Raxus Secundus

The Confederate-Earth Treaty of Alliance was an alliance signed in 21 BBY between the Confederacy of Independent Systems and the pro-CIS Earth Separatist Faction. The alliance garaunteed CIS support for Earth whilst Earth was building CIS support and getting ready to join the CIS, and in case the Republic attacked Earth in reprisal for siding with the CIS.

The alliance was born out of Queen Jane I's immediate support for the CIS after first meeting with Confederate scouts who discovered Earth a few weeks before the alliance was signed, Jane I was informed by the scouts about the CIS, Galactic Republic and the Clone Wars, the heavy pro-CIS bias of the scouts led Jane I to believe the Republic to be a government full of corruption and greed, leading her to immediatly support the CIS against such a poor government.

Her eagerness and desire to quickly get involved in the fight against the Republic initially startled Count Dooku, who hadn't expected Earth to be getting involved with galactic polities so soon after only just learning about them, but he quickly began to view Jane I as a worthy ally due to her eagerness and total support of his cause, he also learnt from his scouts that Earth was a planet rich in resources, and was possibly a place to build shipyards capable of building battleships.

Jane I was requesting admittance into the Confederacy, but Dooku wasn't quite ready yet, he wanted Earth to have a stronger military before admitting Earth into the Confederacy, but he did permit Jane I to send a representative as an envoy and an "observer" to the Separatist Parliament, as well as open an embassy on Raxus Secundus, capital of the CIS. He also decided to sign an alliance with Earth to ensure the CIS could help supply and defend Earth until Earth built up its military forces to a level he believed needed to be able to take part in the galactic conflict.

He had Queen Jane I visit Raxus Secundus and sign the alliance with the CIS in the Separatist Senate Building.

"This alliance represents the friendship between the Confederacy and Earth, as your allies we will provide you support and resources needed to build your own military forces, after your military forces have been built up to a level in which your planet can take part in the galactic conflict, you will be able to join the Separatist Parliament, until then you have permission to open an embassy here and have a representative of your government in the Separatist Parliament"

- Count Dooku to Queen Jane I, after signing the alliance

Under the terms of the alliance, the CIS deployed naval and ground forces as well as technical teams, to Earth to help Earth build its military strength, put down anti-Separatist rallies and riots, and defend Earth from possible Republican attack, like the Battle of Earth.

The alliance was terminated after the Separatist Kingdom of Earth joined the CIS in 20 BBY as it was deemed the alliance was obsolete, since Earth was garaunteed CIS support as a member of the Confederacy.
