The Treaty on Unification and the Creation of a Federal State, or the Treaty Between the Democratic People's Republic of Urbonia and the Principality of Treisia on Unification and the Creation of a Federal State as full title, is a document that created the Daikoku Federation. It was drafted and signed by President Migs Caldeo of the Democratic People's Republic of Urbonia and Grand Prince Karlos Luis Mozo Anioay of the Principality of Treisia in a summit held in Shiro-shi, Seidaikei on April 13, 2013.

Causes of the treaty

A coup d'etat and the succeeding Operation Nadeko in the Democratic People's Republic of Urbonia left the country in a state of political instability. Efforts have been made to rehabilitate the government by appointing Patrick Nuguid as prime minister on March 1, 2013.

Prime Minister Nuguid, however, resigned on March 22, and was replaced by Noel Cabe on the same day.

Convinced that political instability would continue in Urbonia, President Migs Caldeo entered into secret negotiations with Grand Prince Karlos Luis Mozo Anioay on the possible creation of a federation. The negotiations resulted in a high-level summit between the two leaders on April 13, with the treaty being signed on the same day.
