Why don´t we have real Treaties?

[Ampoliros]

Hi all!

While enjoying a relaxed Reela last night a thought struck me, which would mayhap spice up the business here.

Imagine a program, through which you can actually design treaties.
I´m talking big here. I mean you design things and have a big sortiment of cool stuff like pergament roles, the insignias of all the major countries in EU II and of course the authentic writings of the age.

The completed treaties would then be sent as files by ICQ or something like that.

Now, I ask you, is this at all feasible? Could this be programmed?
I mean realistically....
Would there be anyone in this community to tackle this task?
(I would if I could, only I just suck noodles at programming...)

I believe it would be most awesome anyway...

Well think of all the effort and design skills used for something that will almost certainly boil down to "We won, ha ha ha, now give us xxx" and will be broken soon after anyway.

I guess I´m a tragic figure, a romantic optimist, but I do hope that some people sometimes do honour treaties they have signed.

They are honoured, but they aren't put down on paper because then you couldn't mininterpret them, and that would take away the diplomatic depth

Well, all our treaty are already written ones. At least, I write them before asking the other party to accept/sign.

The idea is cool but who would do that? That's maybe the only question.

Written treaties can being misinterpreted too. So no problem. After all, I think is usual to put treaties to writing (at least I do that), so basically the thing could be do that but in a nicer way.
