The Treaty of Joghen was a peace treaty and international agreement signed on 15 December 1981. Its original purpose was to resolve the 1981 Alquiyan-Seketese crisis, but, in conjunction with the Treaty of Vlyade, would go on to form one of the main pillars of Pax Nelboria.

Background

The Treaty of Reykjavik after the Nelborne War established de facto recognition of the Alquiyan-Seketese border and territorial integrity, however, tensions remained high between the two then-authoritarian states over the status of Trjebians and the Rynedan peninsula. The Nelborne Spring brought democracy to Alquiya and Seketan alongside nationalist zeal, particularly in Alquiya.

In September 1981, Alquiyan Minister of Defense Simion Xrsaza's remarks regarding his government's territory during a routine address to the Alquiyan National Assembly caused concern. The governments of FKT and Seketese perceived his words as a potential threat. Both sides formed crisis committees in anticipation of a possible invasion. Seketan's Foreign Affairs Minister criticized Xrsaza's comments, emphasizing the need to uphold the Treaty of Reykjavik. The press conference led to tension and uncertainty. The crisis escalated as both sides increased military readiness, seeing each other as potential aggressors.

During the night of 16 September 1981, Alquiya sent a naval task force into the Treb Bay alongside an armed mobilization along their border with Seketan. The next morning, Seketan responded in kind with their own mobilization, starting off the crisis. The stand-off would last only 4 days, as the Council of Europe and United Nations brokered an agreement on 21 September for both sides to withdraw their forces and a summit being called for 10 December. The next day, under UN DPKO and CSCE supervision, both sides withdrew their militaries.
