The Tokyo Accords, also called the Tokyo Treaty, Tokyo Alliance, or informally, still referred to as NATO are an intergovernmental military alliance of 15 member states. The Accords are a direct successor to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO, Organisation du traité de l'Atlantique nord, OTAN). Much like NATO, the Accords are a collective security system: its independent member states agreeing to defend each other against attacks by third parties. Unlike NATO, however, the Accords also have a secondary function, officially known as the "Tokyo Treaty Anomaly Resolution Sector" (TTARS), often simply called the Tokyo Sector. The Tokyo Sector routinely publishes its findings, many of which controversial. Most of its members are sworn to secrecy, however the agency attempts to maintain an image of openness about the unexplained.
The Headquarters of the Accords are in Brussels, Belgium, (much like NATO) while the treaty itself was signed in Tokyo. The Accords were formed with nine founding members (The United Kingdom, the American Commonwealth, France, Belgium, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and Iceland.) Soon after, the Republic of Korea, Norway, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, and rather controversially, the Republic of China.
