Allium Alliance

The Allium Alliance was an alliance formed between the Empire of Bardonia, the Huitca Federation, and Niedea on May 9th, 2021. The alliance would later gain the Republic of Ombria, the Archduchy of Frosmyre, the Aurlûnor Velande, and the state of Sinatra-Sewor Mafia as either formal members or co-belligerents for at least some time during the Allium-Coalition War, to which the alliance gives its name to. The war would spell the end of the alliance, leading to the collapse of the Bardonian Empire, withdrawal of Aurlûnor from the alliance and declaration of neutrality, and the reformation of Niedea into the Soleannen Empire of Escharia, among other events. 
== Allium Agreement ==
The alliance was formed when Emperor Mobius of Bardonia, Aekir of the Soleannen Faith Samael SoulEater, Emperor Valerian of Niedea, and former Cihacoautl of Huitca SumoMC held a conference discussing the mutual defense of their nations. The provisions of the drafted Allium Agreement were as follows:
# Unrestricted movement for citizens of the nations between one another.
# Diplomatic Assistance
# Non-Aggression Pact
# Protection of members from unsavoury (sic)
# Defensive Pact
== The Near-Miss of May ==
Merely a week after the alliance's founding, on the 15th of May, war between the Allium Alliance and KATO through a conflict between the Republic of Ryzan and Bardonia almost erupted. A plan orchestrated by Thy Futo, then allegedly under the influence of Entropy, faked a false flag act of aggression which led to a declaration of war by the Allium against Ryzan; this caused many countries to mobilize and issue declarations of war. The following day, however, it was leaked by Mistic Audalad and Valen McSpiegel to the world stage that the plans to invade Ryzan/Bardonia were fabrications, leading to the de-escalation of tensions and Thy Futo's banishment from most involved countries and subsequent punishment in a Plagatean court.
== New Addition ==
After a change in leadership inside the nation of Carvay/Ombria, their current leader 8J handed the nation over to Frostina. After this regime change Bardonia’s view of Carvay softened, and Bardonia petitioned Allium leaders to allow Ombria to join. After unanimous vote from the other Allium leaders, the Republic of Ombria was admitted to the alliance.

Full article: Allium-Coalition War
The alliance would grow to its largest extent as the declaration of war by the first three rebel states of the Bardonian Spring and their subsequent alignment with Viodoxa and its allies in the Third Rathnir Coalition rallied the various other states into the war as well. They were not formal members of the Allium pact, but had defensive pacts with Bardonia and/or other Allium members. The Aurlûnor Velande effectively entered the alliance during its declaration of war against Bardonia's attackers, even before some of the "true" Allium members, but due to OOC problems would be reduced to an Allium-aligned neutral state merely sending a volunteer force. The other Allium members would silently back out of the alliance after the Battle of New Dorasterrock, and as such were able to effectively maintain a status quo ante bellum when the war ended in a Coalition victory. Despite this, the majority of the fighters at the last stand of New Dorasterrock would consist of Huicta and Escharian troops.
