New Alcoholic Trade Organization

New Alcoholic Trade Organization (NATO) was an agreement signed by individual towns that sets laws regulating the trade and distribution of items relating to Brewery during the Eighth Era. NATO's main goals were to prevent the rapid spread of custom recipes, maintain a stable Brewery economy, keep the job of Brewer as one of a high status, and to bring more attention to Brewery overall. 
== Regulations ==
Current regulations as of 16 November, 2021. 
=== Global Standardized Pricing ===
People wishing to sell drinks from brewery must adhere to the Standard Pricing Formula (SPF) when selling drinks, except for special cases listed below. 
The SPF: (5 x number of ingredients + 5 x number of minutes cooked + 10 x number of times distilled + 20 x years barrel aged up to 5 + 5 x years barrel aged after 5)/4.75 + 50 per type of non-renewable resource.
For the sake of competition, prices may be increased or decreased by up to 25% of the original value
==== Exceptions ====
For a period of up to one month, a brew's price may be increased or doubled. This is mostly for seasonal brews, such as Pumpkin Spiced Latte. 
If only one person has the recipe to a brew, they may sell it for up to twice the original value of the drink. If anybody else proves they also know the recipe, the price must be reverted to standard pricing.
=== Recipe Sharing ===
All recipes for brews from the default Brewery config may be shared freely. 
For custom recipes, a message must be sent in #Recipe-Sharing stating what recipe is being shared, and to whom. These recipes may not be written in a book or sign, and must be either communicated verbally or through a third party application, such as Discord. 
Recipe Books obtained from crates may not be copied, duplicated, shared, sold, or otherwise distributed. If you have an original Recipe Book, state which recipe/s it contains in #Recipe-Books. All other Recipe Books (copy of original, copy of copy of original, etc...) must be turned in to a NATO representative.
The channels listed here will soon be present on the NATO discord.
