Keitumite Mutual Military Treaty
this treaty was signed by representatives from the Ansionian and Keitumite peoples, linking their planets in defense during the last decades of the Old Republic. While the Treaty had never been invoked, it was nonetheless still in force during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. Count Dooku and Shu Mai hoped the Keitumites would follow the Ansionians in seceding from the Republic, shortly before the Clone Wars, leading to a large-scale secession movement of which they were the leaders.
