The Western Euronia Defense Alliance, commonly referred to as WEDA or the Olympic Defense Alliance, is an intergovernmental military alliance between 18 Western Euronian and Eastern Adulan countries. The organization implements the Alabaster Treaty that was signed on March 29th, 2001 in the city of Alabaster. WEDA constitutes a system of collective defence whereby its independent member states agree to mutual defence in response to an attack by any external party. WEDA's Headquarters are located in Tofino, Zian, Zamastan, with other headquartered offices located in Vongane (Quetana), Viitaniemi (Caspiaa), and Gatovita (Vitosium).
Since its founding, the admission of new member states has increased the alliance from the original 5 countries to 18. Originally, the founding members were Zamastan, Rio Palito, Caspiaa, Ruskayn, and Quetana, all of which as Western Euronian states with the exception of Quetana, which is where the official name of the alliance is derived. However, the addition of Skith and Kuresa in 2005 was deemed strategically sound and the secondary title, Olympic Defense Alliance, was adopted to include the Adulan nations on the other side of the Olympic Ocean. The most recent member states to be added to WEDA were Vitosium on April 18th, 2008, Albarine and Emmiria on September 29th, 2011, and Sulifa and Andaluni on March 20th, 2021. Lutharia, Shoassau, East Chanchajilla, Mulfulira, Janapa, and Saint Croix and Bens became members on January 31st, 2022. WEDA operates multinational training exercises with its member states, including the Sentinel Exercise which is held annually in a rotating member state.
History
Founding
In 1999, economic and political turmoil began to boil over in Beleroskov as states chose to vote in referendums to secede from the communist government. On 17 March, a referendum was held, in which the vast majority of participating citizens voted in favor of changing the country into a renewed federation. In August 2000, a coup d'état attempt by members of the government, directed against the Premier and aimed at preserving the Union of States, instead led to the end of the Communist Party of Beleroskov.
As a result of the quickly unfolding chaos in Beleroskov, the Alabaster Treaty was signed and ratified by Zamastan, Rio Palito, Caspiaa, Ruskayn, and Quetana on March 29th, 2001 in Alabaster, Cayenne, Zamastan, officially establishing the Western Euronia Defense Alliance as a military alliance. WEDA was also created from fears of rising global tensions with the squashing of pro-government movements in Yuan, domestic crisis in Drambenburg, and ongoing insurgencies in Vulkaria.
The first military operation that WEDA conducted as an alliance took place in Vulkaria against M.L.F. fighters in 2001, with Zamastanian, Quetanan, and Rio Palitoan troops assisting federal Vulkarian forces. Ironically, Beleroskov played host to the Neboroskiev Accords that ended the Second War in Vulkaria, to which WEDA representatives established a significant number of stipulations against the Malvarean government. While WEDA has never sent troops into direct combat in state wars as a collective alliance since, WEDA has operated a range of additional roles since then, including sending trainers to Jaginistan, assisting in counter-piracy operations near Qolaysia, Ossinia, and Janapa, and in 2020-21 enforcing a no-fly zone over Syraranto.
Expansion and ODA
On March 19th, 2021, WEDA established resolutions marking the Kingdom of Zalluabed as a totalitarian government in the wake of that nation's military action in Hisrea province, which was likened to a genocide. On March 20th, shortly after the resolutions, the nations of Sulifa and Andaluni were accepted into WEDA. On January 31st, 2022, Lutharia, Shoassau, East Chanchajilla, Mulfulira, Janapa, and Saint Croix and Bens became members.

Partnerships with other countries
Besmenia shares since 2007 a partnership with WEDA through shared military technologies and intelligence sharing, which is evenly distributed with agreements with all member states. Although not a member state of WEDA itself, the government of Besmenia has participated in military exercises with the organization.
CAMDA shares intelligence cooperation with WEDA, with Courbagne, New Elkland serving a forward operating base for the Zamastanian Naval Forces.
The Sotoan Basin Union and WEDA share close ties, with WEDA stating in September of 2021 that they would defend the SBU if Syraranto attacked at the height of the civil war.
