Pan-American League

The Pan-American League is a major International Alliance and Continental Governing Body. Founded on SD2 (April 17th) by the Grand Principality of Vancouver, Yukonzemlya, and the American Federation (then America), it is the oldest extant major alliance. 
From its formation, the Pan-American League and its members were strong supporters of diplomatic solutions over armed conflict, and members of the League often watched over and supported negotiations between other states to ensure that they did not devolve into war. An early example of this was the SD5 Partition of Egypt, where the American Federation and Vancouver arbitrated a peaceful solution to the Egyptian border dispute between Germany and Pichkovac.
== History ==
On SD2, the Treaty of Olympus was written to enact the Pan-American League, then called the Pact of the Two Seas. It quickly grew to prominence as a powerful faction, with members in both North and South America by SD4. Currently, nearly every sovereign nation in the New World has entered in the Pan-American League, either as a full Member state or as an Observer state.
=== SD7 Charter and New World Anticolonialism ===
On SD7, the pact's charter was reorganized to clarify several primary goals of the alliance. It was at this time that the body was renamed the Pan-American League (PAL for short). Along with the renaming, the SD7 rewrite of the Treaty of Olympus issued a major international declaration: Foreign Colonialism in the New World was henceforth banned without express consent from the League (existing colonies were allowed to stay). This followed shortly after the Brunei Pact made a similar decision regarding Asia. During this time, the two organizations maintained a cautiously positive relationship, helped in part due to some nations holding membership in both alliances.
