The Sangang Mutual Security Organization (Gaullican: Organisation de sécurité mutuelle de Sangang), commonly known as SAMSO, is an intergovernmental military alliance and collective defense agreement between the Republic of Senria, Most Serene Republic of Baekjeong, Republic of Chanda, and Kingdom of Kuthina.
SAMSO was formed by Senria, Baekjeong, and Kuthina on September 19, 1981, with the signing of the Sangang Mutual Security Treaty following roughly a year of negotiations between the three nations. Its formation came after the 1975 Coastal Crisis saw the Auspicious Republic of Xiaodong, a traditional geopolitical threat to all three countries, develop nuclear weapons and annex the Republic of Baishadao, which had been backed by Senria since 1957. Chanda was subsequently admitted, with the acquiescence of all three existing members, in 1987.
It is widely accepted that SAMSO is aimed primarily at containing Xiaodongese military influence and power projection, forming a cordon sanitaire of allied states along much of Xiaodong's land borders. As a result, it is widely regarded as a counterweight to the Rongzhuo Strategic Protocol Organisation, which was created by Xiaodong in response to SAMSO's foundation, in Coius. While there has been no direct conflict between SAMSO and ROSPO state forces, the two have engaged in a variety of proxy conflicts since their creation, most notably the conflict in Heijiang. While formally established as an equal alliance between the four states, it is also commonly agreed that Senria, by far the largest of the alliance's members, plays a de facto dominant role within the organization.
