Prior to the accords, Prince Garibald issued sixteen “Princely Edicts,” initiatives intended to set up and smooth the transition from kingdom to protectorate. The edicts range from the withdrawal of Kolios from the [[Empire of Agber]] to restructuring Koliosian nobility to officially secularizing the government. He also made a number of appointments, elevating Koliosian nobles to higher ranks. In an effort to bridge the two nations, he also created a number of new nobles, drawing them from both Koliosian and Westarctican citizenship rosters. The successful accords resulted in the Provincial Charter of the Westarctican Protectorate of Kolios becoming the new law of Kolios.
