Members
The Steel Sea Pact was announced on September 28th, 2022, soon after the conclusion of the Morladron-Sylvania War, by the Morladron Mysterlu, the Grand Duchy of Samora, the Kingdom of Vanshire, and Malucia. Malucia would leave this alliance after it formed, and was replaced by Fishlantis. Saisei Rohkia was likely also a part of this alliance, as they announced that they would withdraw from it before it was officially made public.
