The Nation's territory (the "Reserved Lands") is defined as: [describe boundaries, map link, or coordinates].

The Nation retains jurisdiction over civil and criminal matters involving its members occurring within Reserved Lands.

The Government retains jurisdiction for:

• Acts by its officials
• Crimes committed by Government citizens off Reserved Lands
• Crimes expressly covered by federal/colonial law per mutual agreement

Cross-jurisdiction arrests require an extradition request, hearing, or joint custody agreement as described in Article VIII.

Both Parties agree to a non-aggression pact: no raids, sabotage, or hostile actions shall be initiated across the Treaty boundary.

Cultural artifacts found within Reserved Lands remain the property of the Nation. The Government will not remove nor trade them without the Nation's consent.

Parties shall first attempt to resolve disputes by dialogue and mediation by neutral elders, clergy, or appointed mediators.

If mediation fails, disputes may be resolved by a joint council composed of representatives from both Parties per the agreed procedure [describe timetable/steps].

For crimes involving members of both Parties, officers shall coordinate — no unilateral raids into Reserved Lands without permission except in hot pursuit for crimes posing immediate threat, and even then notification is required.

Extradition requests follow this process: [submission → hearing → joint decision]. Temporary custody arrangements can be agreed upon for urgent cases.

This Treaty remains in effect until amended by mutual written consent or abrogated by a formal process including [notice period].

Amendments require ratification by both Parties according to their internal procedures.

If any provision is found invalid, the remainder remains in force and Parties will negotiate replacement language.
