The United Northern Congress (UNC) is an intergovernmental economic and military alliance between 10 countries, all of which are located in the northern hemisphere of CivClassics, and was formed on the 3rd of August 2018. The UNC operates under a system of collective defense whereby its individual member states agree to mutual defense in response to any attack by any external party.
 
The United Northern Congress prides itself on the democratic values on which it was founded, the congressCongress is comprised of a voting delegation from each contracting party from which all votes, congressional or charter amendments, are decided by unanimous vote by national leaders. The UNC was originally founded by three nations, soon to be joined by seven other sovereign entities.
 
The United Northern Congress operates on a system of collective diplomacy, with each contracting party placing their trust in an elected spokesperson. The spokesperson is the orator of the UNC, speaking on behalf of all contracted parties.

==== Admissions ====

Following the charter reform on May 1st, [[Corvus]] was formally accepted as a member state and on May 7th, [[Iria]] was unanimously approved to become an observer state of the UNC.
 
== Diplomatic Activities ==
<br />Prior to the [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/9dp9i5/official_announcement_of_the_united_northern/ public announcement of the UNC] in early septemberSeptember the diplomatic stance of the congressCongress was mostly isolationist and would stay that way until the first major incident in marchMarch with the SPQR border crisis, after which, with the addition of the spokesperson, the alliance became a neutral and outspoken bloc in local and international diplomacy.
 
=== SPQR Border Crisis ===
In mid februaryFebruary, [[Hallow]], on behalf of the North Axis Treaty Organisation ([[NATO]]) contacted SPQR privately for comment on suspected mirianMirian combatants using the UNC border with NATO as an area to advance and retreat safely into as part of the on-going NATO-Mir war. Hallow had surmised that [[Mir]] maintained a bunker within the territories of SPQR and accused UNC inaction as silent support in the war.
 
Due to commitments unrelating to civclassics, NovaCeasar the National Leader representing SPQR, only brought the concerns to the Congress' attention in the days leading up to march. The contracting parties were swift to reach a conclusion to their discussion on the matter and it was decided to commit to establishing their neutrality in the ongoing conflict and publicly announce this stance to the international community. As of March 2nd, the UNC unanimously approved a [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/awn39e/united_northern_congress_reaffirmation_of/ statement of neutrality] which was shortly posted.
 
Alongside the announcement of neutrality, it was agreed internally to dispatch a party to the SPQR-Hallow border to investigate the claims brought forward by NATO and to assess the situation at the border in a way that could not be done at home. The party was comprised of citizens, government officials and leaders of Varkonia, Bloom and Gensokyo. The goals of the expedition were to remove any foreign entities, people or blocks from either side from the territories of the UNC with the priority being neutralising the mirianMirian bunker suspected to exist in the area. The investigation concluded with the results being published publicly to the international community with a post on [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/aydgwu/unc_restores_peace_to_spqr/ restoring the peace to SPQR].
<br />
 
==== Summary ====
Although the affirmation of neutrality was met with mixed responses due to it'sits seeminglyseeming lack of alliance action on the matter, the restoration of peace was met with a positive reaction from outsiders and constructive diplomatic avenues with both NATO and Mir. Both sides of the conflict volunteered their snitch networks in the region much to the gratitude of the United Northern Congress. The border region was subsequently snitched and further monitored by the UNC as part of the collective defensive policy.
 
This situation led to further discussions internally on the issue of collective diplomacy and amendments were made to establish and clarify the alliance's position on diplomatic matters.

=== Icenian Diplomatic Incident ===
In late juneJune, tensions between New Sovia and Icenia culminated in a [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/c2zw0m/hostile_intentions_67/ redditReddit post]exposing Icenian President, ChrisChrispie for participating in the obby bombing of New Verda (Nyasaland) and contained screenshots alleging his support for retaliation attacks against the UNC member in future. On the day of the post, protests led by and mostly consisting of New Sovians littered the streets of Icenia with the attacks on icenian citizens with the subsequent pearling of Pirater by Lil_wayne. Prior to these incidents, however, the present Spokesperson, BritishWanderer took an unarmed visit to Icenia to observe the protests and to visit the Varkonian shop. The Spokesperson was accompanied by four UNC geared fighters who were there to ensure the safety of the Spokesperson as is the unwritten policy for when visiting foreign nations.

==== Summary ====
Although initially a shock, the event mostly simmered into general [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/c3vywe/unc_spokesperson_takes_a_diplomatic_visit_to/ memery] and [https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/c3wlfi/i_love_the_newfriends/ jokes] about the situation. ChrisChrispie did, however, reiterate that BritishWanderer was always welcome in Icenia and apologised for the event. Lil_wayne was also given a light sentence by the UNC with the context of the event in mind.
