ACM (EMG-1)

The ACM was a controversial treaty between Iceland (AKA NATA) and Russia. Although it declared itself to be against imperialism and colonialism, it was taken by many (notably, the governments of Dolgozó and the Adriatic Republic) to be inherently imperialistic and hypocritical, as it was seen as preventing imperialism by other countries, and promoting it by Iceland and Russia. It was also seen as splitting the world up between them. Immediately following this agreement, Dolgozó left the Rotterdam Pact with the USSR, and Magdalena Abaza of the Adriatic Republic condemned the agreement as "heretical" in an opposing agreement, the Rotterdam Accord. The Rotterdam Accord (not to be confused with the Rotterdam Pact) was signed by Abaza, Tímea Fogház of Dolgozó, Volodymyr Ponomarenko of Ukraine, Eamon O'Donovan of the Celtic Empire, Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi of Egypt, and José Stewart of Spain. In response to these allegations, the leaders of Iceland and Russia revised the ACM to reduce on the land reserved for Iceland and Russia, instead moving them underneath the same protection as the other protected nations, but this was not enough to clear up the international perception of imperialism. Shortly afterwards, the ACM more or less fell apart, especially after the dissolution of Iceland into NATA.
