Ranger Unification Treaty

The Ranger Unification Treaty was an agreement signed between the New California Republic and the Desert Rangers of Nevada in 2271 at the Mojave Outpost.
==Background==
Under the treaty, the Desert Rangers were absorbed into the New California Republic Rangers. In return, the New California Republic took on the burden of protecting Hoover Dam, New Vegas, and southern portions of Nevada against the forces of the Caesar's Legion.Message box transcription - Mojave Outpost: "In the year 2271, the Desert Rangers of Nevada and rangers of the New California Republic met at this spot to sign the Ranger Unification Treaty. Under this treaty, the Desert Rangers agreed to be absorbed into the NCR in exchange for NCR's protection of Hoover Dam, New Vegas, and southern Nevada against the forces of Caesar's Legion."Courier: "Why are the rangers here?"Hanlon: "There's a lot of answers to that question, but it started with the Ranger Unification Treaty. We weren't always the only show in town. Nevada had its own posse, the Desert Rangers. They fought Caesar even farther east, out in Arizona. Didn't go well for them. Years back, we met with the Desert Rangers at Mojave Outpost and agreed to help them against Caesar if they would join the NCR."(Hanlon's dialogue)Fallout: New Vegas Official Game Guide Collector's Edition pp. 390-391: "[4.27] Mojave OutpostThe place where the Mojave Outpost now stands was originally a checkpoint between California and Nevada. After the war, it stood empty and vacant for well over a century. Ten years ago, the NCR Rangers and the Desert Rangers of Nevada (who have been dwindling in numbers) met at what had become known as the I-15 Mojave Outpost, to establish terms of the Ranger Unification Treaty. In its current form, Mojave Outpost serves as the link between NCR and the Mojave Wasteland."(Fallout: New Vegas Official Game Guide Collector's Edition Tour of the Mojave Wasteland)

The Ranger Unification Treaty is mentioned only in Fallout: New Vegas.
==Behind the scenes==
This treaty is one of several subtle references to the 1988 Wasteland, which was the inspiration for the Fallout series. In the series, the player controls a team of Desert Rangers, who fight to protect the wasteland after a nuclear war - including post-apocalyptic Las Vegas.
