You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

((Short description|Type of peace agreement))
((For|the novel|A Separate Peace))
((More citations needed|date=December 2009))

A '''separate peace''' is a nation's agreement to cease military hostilities with another even though the former country had previously entered into a [[military alliance]] with other states that remain at [[war]] with the latter country.  For example, at the start of the [[First World War]], [[Russian Empire|Russia]] was a member, like the [[United Kingdom]] and [[French Second Republic|France]], of the [[Triple Entente]], which went to war with the [[Central Powers]] formed by [[German Empire|Germany]] and [[Austria-Hungary]], later joined by the [[Ottoman Empire]] and [[Kingdom of Bulgaria|Bulgaria]]. After the abdication of [[Nicholas II of Russia|Nicholas II]] during the [[February Revolution]] and the subsequent [[Russian Provisional Government]]'s overthrow by the [[Bolsheviks]] during the [[October Revolution]], [[Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic|Russia]] defaulted on its commitments to the Triple Entente by signing a [[Armistice between Russia and the Central Powers|separate peace with Germany and its allies]] in 1917. This armistice was followed on March 3, 1918, by the formal signing of the [[Treaty of Brest-Litovsk]].

During the [[Second World War]], after 1941, when the [[Soviet Union|Soviets]] were allied with the [[British Empire|British]] and the [[United States of America|Americans]], to the end of the war in 1945, both sides suspected the other of seeking separate peace with [[Nazi Germany|Germany]], though this did not occur.

An earlier important example is the [[Franco-Dutch War]] of 1672, which [[Kingdom of France|France]] and [[Kingdom of England|England]] entered together, but from which the English withdrew unilaterally by a separate peace with the [[Dutch Republic|Dutch]], the [[Treaty of Westminster (1674)]].

==Legal obligations not to conclude separate peace==
It is customary, in cases of war waged by several allies, to reach a peace accord or declaration with the agreement of all parties to the alliance, instead of creating a separate peace with opposing forces. An example of such an undertaking was included in the alliance treaty concluded between the [[Papal States]], [[Duchy of Burgundy|Burgundy]] and [[Republic of Venice|Venice]], concluded in Rome in 1463. The parties undertook to launch a crusade against the Turks and to refrain from making peace with the Sultan without the consent of all three parties.<ref>Ludwig Pastor, ''History of the Popes'', vol. 3, p. 330</ref> Such was the case during the [[First World War|First]] and [[Second World War]]s.

A declaration to that effect was issued on September 4, 1914, by the British, French and Russian governments, which briefly stated 
<blockquote>
The British, French, and Russian Governments mutually engage not to conclude peace separately during the present war. The three Governments agree that when terms of peace come to be discussed, no one of the allies will demand conditions of peace without the previous agreement of each of the other allies.<ref>[http://www.firstworldwar.com/source/tripleentente_noseppeace.htm Declaration of Sept. 4, 1914], [https://www.jstor.org/stable/2212043?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents Declaration of the Triple Entente]</ref>
</blockquote>

The Japanese government acceded to this declaration on October 19, 1915.<ref>[http://www.fco.gov.uk/resources/en/pdf/treaties/TS1/1915/9 Japanese note of accession] ((webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120927034343/http://www.fco.gov.uk/resources/en/pdf/treaties/TS1/1915/9 |date=2012-09-27 )), [http://treaties.fco.gov.uk/docs/fullnames/pdf/1915/TS0009%20(1915)%20CD-8014%201915%2019%20OCT,%20LONDON%3B%20NOTES%20RESPECTING%20ACCESSION%20OF%20JAPAN%20TO%20DECLARATION%20ENGAGING%20NOT%20TO%20CONCLUDE%20PEACE%20SEPARATELY.pdf Accession of Japan to the Declaration between United Kingdom, France and Russia].</ref>

On November 30, 1915, the same four governments, now joined by the Italian government, issued a similar joint declaration regarding avoiding separate peace.<ref>[http://www.fco.gov.uk/resources/en/pdf/treaties/TS1/1915/14 Declaration of November 30, 1915] ((webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120927034356/http://www.fco.gov.uk/resources/en/pdf/treaties/TS1/1915/14 |date=September 27, 2012 )), [http://treaties.fco.gov.uk/docs/fullnames/pdf/1915/TS0014%20(1915)%20CD-8107%201915%2030%20NOV,%20LONDON%3B%20DECLARATION%20BETWEEN%20UK,%20FRANCE,%20ITALY,%20JAPAN,%20&%20RUSSIA%20ENGAGING%20NOT%20TO%20CONCLUDE%20PEACE.pdf Declaration between the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Japan and Russia engaging not to conclude peace separately during the present war]</ref>

The obligation to refrain from separate peace was also made during the Second World War in both camps. The Tripartite Pact between the German, Italian and Japanese governments committed the three to prosecute the war together. On the Allied camp, that obligation was contained in the United Nations Declaration of January 1, 1942.

A similar obligation arose within the Arab League, in the context of the Arab-Israeli conflict, not to reach any separate peace treaty with the Israeli government, in order to assure that a collective arrangement would take into consideration the interests of all Arab states plus the Palestinians. The Egyptian government under [[Anwar Sadat]] acted in contrast to that rule when it decided to conclude a [[Egypt–Israel peace treaty|separate peace treaty]] in 1979.
