How does an alliance differ from a defensive pact?

 

[McDoogle]

Well they refused my allaince offer and i upped my relationship now allaince is gone... is that because they refused it or because you need to be certain relationship...


and i have no idea what a defensive pact would entail... what there should be is a lil pop up saying what the request means, and how you will benefit from it, like trade how much more money you will make with them and the option of prehaps haggling how many carvans and to where etc?

 

[iskar]

a defensive pact causes each contract party to declare war on anyone that declares war on the other party.

i think an alliance does the same and in addition it makes the other party declare war on your enemies, as long as no other contracts of theirs obstruct...

those contracts can cause funny things: i once forged an alliance/defensive treaty with my kingdom, dumnonia, argialla and lindisware, while pengwern, desmumu, gewissae and connaught were allied to each other on the other side.
some day, pengwern declared war against lindisware and things got similar to june, 1914
